Dear Ken & Terri,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!
You did an amazing job with our wedding video. Noah and I watched it with big smiles and tears running down our cheeks! You guys captured EVERYTHING, and it was so neat to relive the day while watching the video. We were unable to see the cocktail hour, so it was so much fun to see everyone enjoying themselves, picking out chocolate from the candy bar, eating the appetizers, etc! We absolutely loved every second of it, and we can’t thank you enough for your hard work putting this all together! You definitely captured our story, and it means so much to us that you took the time to piece together every significant detail! We will recommend you guys to everyone we know that is getting married because a wedding video from Videon Productions is something EVERYONE should have…it’s not just a video, but a story of our lives captured on film!! Our video was definitely worth every penny and we are so grateful to both of you for doing such a wonderful job!
Eric and I just wanted to thank you for all your hard work to capture our wedding day for us. Everything was perfect – beautiful weather, great family and friends and everything flowed so smoothly – we really couldn’t have asked for anything more!
Thank you for working with us to capture all the moments of our day. We appreciate your flexibility in extending our coverage over what we had originally planned. We are so thankful we extended it so that we could capture more of the day – we would have been disappointed to miss getting the reception and everything after the ceremony. Eric and I are looking forward to watching the video and re-living the day all over again (and seeing lots of the things we missed!). Thanks again for all your work!
Regards,

We love movies because they tell a story and stories impact our lives…that is the power of film-making.
Artfully crafted and creatively captured is our mission at Videon Productions. When we capture stories at your wedding or event, your film takes on a new meaning…it has a voice and becomes a living documentary of a very important time in your life, an archive of people, places, faces–to be shared with future generations.
We are incredibly fortunate to have access to technology that records our stories, of which was not available in our grandparents generation. If there is anything we have learned from the past few years is that it is not the things we gather that we should place value in, but it is the people in our lives and their stories. If we neglect to record our stories in storybooks and on film, they will become faded memories…record your memories before it’s too late…..

Our wedding trailer, “An Artful Match” will be coming soon…
If there’s one thing brides today can agree on, it’s that future brides should have their weddings videotaped. The numbers go up in today’s economy, with the importance placed not on things, but on memories and legacies.
“Our married friends mentioned that we wouldn’t remember too much after the wedding because the day goes by so fast. They were right! Thank you SO much for the beautiful video! With all the drama of that weekend, it was hard to remember all the details. You did a fabulous job of capturing the essence and feeling of the day. Every time we watch it, it’s like experiencing it all over again.” –Regards, Anne and Richard
The results of this cross section of brides from across the country, showed that 98% of surveyed newlyweds recommended that brides have their weddings videotaped.
Interestingly, brides don’t fully appreciate the value of video until after the wedding. Before the wedding, only a little more than half of surveyed brides considered video a “Top 10″ service in comparison to other wedding related services. However, after the wedding, that number climbs to 75%!
Brides say video does a better job of capturing the emotions of the day, records the history of the day, and they strongly feel that future children will enjoy their wedding video more than their wedding photographs.
When asked: “If you had a choice between looking at your grandparent’s wedding photos or their wedding video, which would you choose?” 61% of brides said they would rather see the video and that a professional photographer is a must. What do you have left after the event is over? You decide.
Videon Productions filmed the Cities 97 Sampler Release Party, a major fund raising event for charity, at Bayview Event Center on Lake Minnetonka. This annual event is held to thank the artists, sponsors, and listeners who generously support the creation of this one of a kind music CD sold as a limited release through Target Stores in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis/St. Paul. Proceeds are then distributed to various Minnesota charities and Volume 21 will raise over $600 K!
The annual Polar Ice Dive was held on January 1, 2010 at the Bayview Event Center in Excelsior! The -4 degree temperature didn’t deter over 1200 Minnesotans from jumping into the 30 degree waters of Lake Minnetonka! Videon Productions was there to capture video footage for Bayview Event Center! Carpe diem!
Jen, from Minnesota, and Mark, from Florida, found love on E-Harmony! Jen’s wishes to have a classic, traditional, and elegant wedding came true in April. A special thank you to Bjorn Meisner Photography for collaborating with Videon Productions to make Jen and Mark’s dreams come true.
Gina and Justin’s wedding in Crosslake, MN. was beautiful. Here are a couple of photos courtesy of Tim Larsen Photography in Brainerd. Stay tuned for a video trailer of their event: “Wedding Up North”.
