Since this video has received a lot of attention I'd like to address a few things:
First, this wasn't staged in any way. Our process when creating a wedding film starts with getting to know the couple and their family. When we asked if there were going to be wedding gifts, Brooke's mom mentioned that she had a letter. After hearing the details, I knew that this would play a huge part in their story. We made sure to be in the room when the letter was given, but these events would have happened this way regardless. Afterwards, we asked Brooke's mom to tell us about the letter. she was hesitant but I knew that the backstory would be crucial. So by listening to the couple we were able to create something that would make their wedding film much more special, and that's why we love what we do! _______________________________________________________________________
