Idris + Shawyntee // The Biltmore Estate Wedding

I remember the day like it was yesterday! Idris called to ask of my availability for a June 8th wedding at the Biltmore Estate in beautiful Asheville NC! Obviously, I was excited since this would be my first wedding at the Biltmore. When you love what you do as much as I do, filming at a venue with a never-ending beautiful backdrop will always top the list on your favorite places to shoot a wedding. Add a gorgeous couple that treats you like family and there you go! Instant awesome sauce!!!

It all came together perfectly! I'd been in touch with Idris several times before their wedding to discuss their schedule to make sure I had everything in order!  I was to the moon excited! And slightly nervous too! Not anything wedding related but more so nervous with the Biltmore being a huge tourist attraction!

For me... I love meeting with each and every couple so they'll know that I lreally like to make every wedding movie very personal. So I arranged myself a hotel and went up for the rehearsal so I could meet this fabulous couple!

As soon as everyone began to arrive I was greeted to great big ole hugs! Talk about making me melt! Gah! I was on cloud 9!!!

The next day... I was so fired up to capture as much as possible about the Biltmore and everything else pertaining to their wedding... I just had to take a minute every now and then to stop and take in the moment. I'm a big bucket list kinda person. From big things to small crazy things and filming at the Biltmore was one of them!

I can't even put into words how to describe the whole day. After the ceremony,  which was in the walled gardens, the photographers and myself walked up to the house for some photos and video. And oh sweet mercy... we had the place all to ourselves. It was so majestic!

I must say, Idris & Shawyntee... you guys are AMAZING! I'm so thankful that you chose Brian Bunn Films to capture your most special day! It was with great honor!!!

Check out their highlight trailer! When Idris saw his bride for the first time, it was probably one of the most powerful moments of the day! Just watch...  you'll see!!!
