Anthony & Gabi
A ceremony against a weathered old stone wall in wine country, string lights strung overhead for the night, and a couple who could not stop laughing through their own vows.
The way it felt.
Vows were exchanged against a weathered stone wall with string lights strung overhead for the night ahead, and neither of them made it through their own vows without laughing.
Calistoga in wine country has a particular kind of light, warm and a little dusty in the best way, and it held through the whole afternoon into a string-lit evening. We shot the day the way the property called for, unpolished and warm rather than overly formal.
In Calistoga.
This was a private property in Calistoga rather than a bookable commercial venue, so we are keeping the details general here. Photography for the day was by Jordan Voth. What we can say is that wine country light in this part of Napa County runs warm and forgiving most of the year, and a stone-walled setting like this one holds up beautifully once the string lights come on after sunset.
Do you film private-property weddings in Calistoga?
Yes. We filmed Anthony & Gabi's wedding in Calistoga, California, a private property rather than a commercial venue. As a wedding videographer who works across California, we plan coverage around whatever the property offers, private estate or public venue alike.
How much does a Calistoga wedding videographer cost?
Our wedding films range from $6,000 for The Moment to $10,000 for The Legacy, our most complete collection. Every collection includes a full cinematic wedding film plus a custom wedding website. You can see everything on our Collections page.
How soon do we get our wedding film?
Your full cinematic wedding film is delivered in about 8 to 12 weeks. Our two larger collections, The Portrait and The Legacy, also include a shorter teaser, delivered sooner so you have something to share while the full film is edited.
Is there a difference between a wedding film and a wedding video?
We'd say yes. A wedding video is a record of what happened. A wedding film is edited with intention, pacing, and your actual vows and speeches woven through it, so it plays more like a short film than a highlight reel. That's what we make.
Will we notice you during the day?
Barely, and that's the point. We film the day as it actually unfolds rather than staging it, staying close but out of the way, so you're present for your wedding instead of performing for a camera. Most couples tell us they forgot we were filming until they watched the film back.
