Uniquely Styled | Je'Nean & Ji Won's Save-The-Date Video

It's not everyday that you find someone that is exactly like you in a big city like New York. It's even harder to find a bride that is willing to take a risk and dive into uncharted waters. When NST Pictures told me of this bride-to-be's idea for her save-the-date film I was thrilled for two reasons. One. I knew I wanted to collaborate with NST pictures in anything I could. Have you seen their work?!? AH-mazing. Two. Say the words ball gown, Central Park and masquerade in a sentence and I'm one happy girl! That is why when I met this gorgeous bride-to-be, I knew I was in for a treat.

I met Je'Nean one chilly December night at Bryant Park (my favorite place to be during the Holidays in NYC) and chit chatted about her unique wedding plans and how her save-the-date video had to be one of a kind. My kinda girl! She had a vision of walking through Central Park, looking for her fiance in a ball gown but wasn't sure how to put it all together. This is where I came in.

With this general idea, I created a story based on their wedding theme while incorporating the beautiful, classic, scenery of New York City. We loved Grand Central Station, Central Park and honestly how could we not incorporate a NYC yellow cab?!? We drew up storyboards and revised our plans a few times before we were certain we knew what we wanted to see, experience and feel. 

I'm absolutely floored with the results and am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with such amazing people on such a cool project. This is their love story... Enjoy!

And this is what they had to say: 

"I was first introduced to Dulce Dreams through the videographer that we were using to create our Save-the-Date video. My fiancé and I have been to hundreds of weddings over the last few years and the first thing that we promised each other was that we were going to do our best to avoid the “cookie cutter” wedding. It was important to us that everything that we did was a true reflection of who we were as a couple. So, when I told my videographers that I wanted something a bit more dramatic and “over –the-top” they were jumping up and down to tell me about Dulce Dreams.

I’ll be honest, when I first heard that they thought it would be helpful for me to use Dulce Dreams to style my video, I was a bit skeptical. I didn’t believe that anyone would be able to execute my ideas better than me. But I reluctantly agreed to a meeting and I can honestly say it’s probably one of the best decisions that I’ve made. When I first met up with Ashley for our consultation, I was immediately impressed with just how creative and enthusiastic she was throughout the entire process. She took my ideas and pushed them farther than I could ever imagine. When I left our meeting, I was running on pure excitement.

What I learned during the rest of the process was that Ashley was not only creatively gifted, but she was extremely detail orientated and really worked hard to make our ideas become a reality. She provided me with several storyboards that laid out every shoot, accessory and logistical detail to make the film a success. Halfway through the process, I stopped worrying about anything because I knew that Ashley would have it covered. And for any bride planning a wedding, you know that being able to let go and just enjoy the process is the best feeling in the world.

I just received my video last week and it was amazing!!! I can’t thank Ashley enough!!!"

THANK YOU Je'Nean & Ji Won! You both are so wonderful. Wishing you every happiness!! 

Also, a huge THANK YOU to NST Pictures, for going out of your way and being daring! (Moo and Daniella know what I'm talking about)  XOXO
