A summer wedding typically has at least one element of the day that's outside. Make sure you have shaded options that allow guests to avoid the sun. We love the idea of handing out parasols, fans or sunglasses as wedding favors so guests can use them during the day.

Think fresh, light and airy when it comes to food and drinks and even colors.

Need vendors for your summer wedding? These pros specialize in this style.

Summer weddings are those held in the months of June, July and August. This is considered "wedding season" and is one of the most popular times to get married. Some wedding styles we often see in summer include boho, rustic, casual, nautical and tropical weddings.

Because summer is widely considered "wedding season," you'll see higher prices on venues and vendors between Memorial Day and Labor Day so keep that in mind when figuring out your budget. There's good reason so many couples choose to get married in the summer. Inclement weather is not nearly as much of a concern, outdoor ceremonies are much easier to plan and, of course, there's an endless variety of bright blooms to include in your day!

These wedding videos will give you the inspiration for all your summer wedding, plus the vendors and brands who can make them happen.

The most impactful wedding films find the 
threads that make your film feel like you and weaves that through the story of your day. While anyone can get a clip of your first dance, you want a film that makes you feel reconnected. One that takes you back to how it felt to be in the moment.

 And for that, you need an experienced filmmaker who cares. 

With an emphasis on personality,
 storytelling, and your meaningful moments,
 I do just that.

"I'm never going to do that again." That's what I said after filming my first wedding. I had a lot to learn - like everyone stands when the bride comes in, so don't have your shot get blocked - but over time I learned not only what I needed to film, but what a wedding film should REALLY be about.

For me, filming a wedding is about catching the little moments that truly communicate who you are, what makes you tick as a couple. I've gone from being engaged, to married, and now a dad to two awesome kids, and I try to draw on my own experience to make sure I'm getting all the moments for you that I know you'll want down the line!

It's so important to me to do what it takes to tell your story in the most impactful way. Weddings are once in a lifetime events, and my promise to my couples is PGP Wedding Films will give you 110% to make your wedding last more than one day!

I've been shooting and editing weddings for PGP Films since May 2018. I've been born and raised in Delaware, living here most of my life until I moved to Nashville, TN for four years. I attended Watkins College of Art and fell in love with all aspects of filmmaking! I was even lucky enough to have been mentored throughout my college career by the man who edited Toy Story himself, Robert Gordon. 

After graduation, I moved back home to Delaware and promised myself that no matter what I end up doing, it would be film related. I came across the opportunity with PGP Wedding Films and fell in love with it the very first day.
