Kristen+Stuart

A committed couple, two loving families and the perfect weather all came together for this wonderful wedding on the beach of Lake Michigan. The venue was windy, but warm and everyone enjoyed the ceremony.

The reception hall was decorated with many personal touches which reflected the love and care with which this day was planned. The culmination of months of planning, googling and hours upon hours of noodle making;-)
We at All Star Productions are always honored to be a small part of preserving the memories of the day and this day was no exception. Thank you for inviting us along.
God Bless you Kristen and Stuart. Enjoy your wedding overview. ;-)

It was a very warm summer day in Southwest Michigan as Brittany and Johnny were married outside at the beautiful Geneva Moore Homestead. Heartfelt personal vows were recited and I don't think there was a dry eye amongst their family and friends. The vivid peacock inspired colors were just stunning, everything looked spectacular. Congratulations Brittany and Johnny! Dale and I wish you many years of love and happiness!

It was a rainy morning and we got soaked while setting up for the ceremony, but everything turned out amazingly well and we had a great time during the ceremony and reception.  We all got thru it fine and most importantly the wedding continued on and Rachelle and Kyle got married.  Of course, you already knew that since you are watching this overview. ;-)  What can we say except that everything turned out beautiful.
The wedding, reception, the specials and dancing....all a celebration honoring Rachelle and Kyle on their wedding day.  Thank you so much for inviting us along to capture the day on film. 

This was an All Star Productions event.  We DJ'd the ceremony and the reception as well as filmed everything you see on this overview.  It was a busy day. Our son Mike was our DJ while our good friend Robert Sliter assisted Kim and I in all of the filming. Great team effort. Thanks Gang.

Amazing. That pretty much sums it up for this couple. Okay, I'll tell you some more about this day. What stands out most to me is the love, trust, admiration and playfulness Joe and Cindy share together. The way they look at each other is something you don't see often enough. Love is a beautiful thing.
The maid of honor and best man speeches are heartfelt and loving. You can sense the warmth of admiration and love for Joe and Cindy, not only from these two but from the entire crowd.
Simply put this is a wonderful celebration of two people who were absolutely destined to find each other. Congratulations you two. We were honored to be there.

The rain held back until Ashley and Jake were married outside at the beautiful Mill Creek Barn. Then it poured down rain! But no worries, at that point everyone was safe and warm inside the barn celebrating. I love all the beautiful little details that Ashley incorporated into her decor. She even had her own mother's wedding dress on display surrounded by old family photos. Congratulations, Ashley and Jake! Dale and I wish you a long and happy life together.

A beautiful rainy day was the setting for this colorful fall wedding.  The wedding decor was filled with shimmering crystals everywhere.  Old family photos covered the grand piano as Christina walked down the aisle with her father to meet Thomas in the presence of their family and friends. Heartfelt tearful vows filled the room as Christina and Thomas pledged their love and lives to each other forever.  Congratulations Thomas and Christina!  Dale and I had a great time filming your lovely wedding.

Jim+Amy

This was such a joyous celebration of two families uniting their children together in the bond of marriage. So many wonderful sentiments behind every beautiful detail of Amy and Jim's gorgeous wedding.  Amy's mother shared with me that she never thought she would have any children, ever. After 15 years, surprise!  Amy was born! She went on to tell me how much joy and happiness Amy has brought to her and Amy's father.  It was a whirlwind day full of stuff that fairy tales are made of.  Congratulations, Jim and Amy!  Thank you for allowing us to film your beautiful wedding day and capture so many awesome memories for you and your family to enjoy in the years to come. God Bless You All!

Mr./Miss Coloma 2013 Overview

Another New Year, another New Court, and another new overview from All Star Productions. Loads of fun and frolic is this overview. A ton of behind the scenes rehearsals to get ready for the Mr and Miss Pageant. Thank you again for inviting us along for the ride. Enjoy.

Krissy+Brendon

The best way to describe this day is FUN!  Everyone in these two families has that zest for life and we had a ball filming Krissy and Brendon's wedding. 
Everything about this day was perfect.  Locations, setting, scenery were all amazing. The food was delicious and the drinks were refreshing.  The beach, sun and clouds all fell into place and made this a beautiful film along with the stars of our storyline.  Krissy, Brendon, Johnny and Kristopher.  If you plan to blend the perfect family then these are the four ingredients you need. ;-)  Thank you again for choosing All Star Productions to capture this most awesome day.

Charlotte+Justin

A rustic barn is such a beautiful setting for a wedding.  Charlotte and Justin's charming wedding just further enhanced the beauty of Mill Creek Barns.  You know its going to be a cool reception when the bride and groom make their grand entrance on a tandem bike.  It immediately brought the energy level up several notches.
Delicious food, great music and lots of dancing. Their family and friends did a delightful serenade of "That's Amore" to send Charlotte and Justin off on their honeymoon.  We had a wonderful time with this gang.  Lot's of cool scenery shots and beautiful sentiment in the vows and speeches.  Couldn't have asked for a nicer day as well.

Miss Bridgman 2013

Some behind the scene moments captured, lots of pretty girls and of course gowns and crowns featured in this overview.  All the contestants did a marvelous job as well as all the people involved with putting this pageant together.  It is always such a pleasure for Dale and I to work with the Miss Bridgman Scholarship Pageant.  All music licensed through Song Freedom.

Doug+Jennifer

As you watch through this overview notice the amazing amount of detail. There is so much work involved in making a wedding day breathtaking, beautiful and memorable. Doug and Jennifer's wedding met that goal and exceeded it. Everything was perfect. The food, the hall, the music and the wonderful people involved. 
Their ceremony was filmed at St. Johns Cathedral in Benton Harbor, MI. and the reception was held at Shadowland Ballroom in St. Joseph, MI.  Just two of the many great locations here in Southwestern Michigan for destination weddings. 
Kim and I here at All Star Productions were honored as always to be invited to capture this most important day for Doug, Jennifer and their families.
