New website for 2010

by Keith on January 26, 2010 in News

Wishing all our readers a Happy New Year for 2010!

Apologies for the lack of blog posts lately – we’ve been busy editing as well as having our new website created. Our new site will have the same URL address but we’re merging the wedding video blog into the main site itself. Nothing like a little synergy. (Apparently!)

We hope you like the new look.

2009 in Review

by Keith on December 3, 2009 in News

I can hardly believe that it’s almost Christmas again! It’s also that time of the year when we get a chance to reflect on our closing year. Despite the very significant downturn in the Irish economy, 2009 was one of our busiest years yet and our bookings calendar for 2010 is as full now as it always has been for this time of the year. We are happy to note that despite things being financially tighter for couples, they are still not prepared to cut corners on their Wedding DVD and are willing to invest in a high end quality product and service.

2009 saw Keith Malone Wedding Films expanding by taking on additional highly-trained freelance camera operators to help cope with filming demands throughout the year. We also introduced a new multi-camera wedding film package to cater for the high-end wedding market.

Right now, we’re working hard to meet our deadlines for delivering our Autumn weddings in time for Christmas.

Until then, we would like to wish every reader a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for 2010!

Marie-Louise was in my class in Primary School a couple of decades ago! So I was delighted when we randomly crossed paths again where I would end up filming her wedding day. Both Marie-Louise and John were a pleasure to work with; they let me keep my head down and film their day in my normal discreet way. I loved their choice of music for the DVDs, the old timeless classics are defintely the best. Especially this Tony Bennett number which they chose to accompany their wedding highlights clip. Enjoy!

Music for your Wedding DVDs

by Keith on September 28, 2009 in Advice Articles

Brides are always asking me for advice about what songs they can choose for their Wedding DVDs. There is no simple answer to this one. I encourage couples to pick appropriate songs that are important and meaningful to them. Upon request, I can show couples a list of songs that are chosen the most often. Here is that list (in alphabetical order):

 

  • Al Green – Let’s Stay Together
  • Barbara Streisland & Bryan Adams – I’ve Finally Found Someone
  • Beatles – Something
  • Bruce Springsteen – Secret garden
  • Counting Crows – Accidentally in Love
  • Damien Rice – The Blower’s Daughter
  • Elton John – Your Song
  • Elvis Costello – She
  • Eric Clapton – Wonderful Tonight
  • Eva Cassidy – Songbird
  • Joe Cocker – You Are So Beautiful
  • Lonestar – Amazed
  • Louis Armstrong – We Have All The Time In The World
  • Mic Christopher – Heyday
  • Moulin Rouge Soundtrack – Come What May
  • Nat King Cole – Let There Be Love
  • Robbie Williams – She’s the One
  • Sade – By Your Side
  • Tom Baxter – Better
  • Van Morrison – Have I Told You Lately

 

I hope this helps those of you who are stuck for inspiration!

An Honour and a Privilege

by Keith on September 1, 2009 in News

I was very pleasantly surprised yesterday when a bride who badly wanted to book me ended up CHANGING HER WEDDING DATE just so I was available to film her wedding! So thanks a million Sinead and Dave, it will be an honour and a privledge to film your wedding when June 2010 comes around.

A few weeks ago, I received a call from a bride enquiring whether I was available to film her wedding. She seemed interested in proceeding with a booking but wanted to think about it for another day or two. I explained to her that I receive many enquiries every day and I can only reserve a date upon receipt of a booking fee and it’s strictly on a first come, first served basis.

A few weeks pass and the same bride just rang me again today to check if I was still available. She genuinely sounded gutted when I had to tell her that her wedding date had been booked by somebody else because I was not expecting to hear back from her after so long. She jokingly asked if I would consider refunding the other bride’s deposit!!!

Crying Bridge main If you like what you see, book now. (seriously!)

Anyway, the point of this post is to say that when it comes to ANY supplier, if you like what you see, chances are that others will too. If only I had a penny for every time that I’ve wanted to clone myself and film numerous weddings on the same day!

Now and again, when filming weddings we bump into the occasional celebrity. Last weekend Andrea Corr graced us with her presence at Nicola and David’s wedding in Gorey, Co. Wexford. It was my first time to meet Andrea and she was nothing but friendly and courteous.

Discreet Wedding Filming

by Keith on August 15, 2009 in Testimonials

We filmed a lovely wedding today in Trinity College Dublin & Barberstown Castle in Co. Kildare. Everything was perfect, the sunshine, the ceremony, the music, the craic  and the food. We even got a little mention from the priest, Fr. Paddy Rushe. It’s always nice when our discretion during the ceremony mass is recognised & appreciated by the celebrant. Fr. Rushe is a friendly welcoming priest who always has something interesting to say! Here’s how it went down:
