one of the best parts about being wedding videographers is having the opportunity to capture real moments and real emotions. while we obviously love the photography side of things, there’s just something palpable about films; you can really feel the emotion and excitement, over and over again! and we certainly think this is the case with this lovely proposal film!

michael + sadie were visiting washington, d.c. from their home state of oklahoma, and while sadie believed it to be a fun weekend getaway, michael had different plans altogether.

he had planned a completely surprise proposal with the incredible proposal planners, the yes girls, and everything was planned perfectly– down to the embroidered mrs. box to go with the ring! the yes girls lined up a wonderful team of vendors to help completely surprise sadie at the charming cakeroom bakery in downtown d.c.

michael and sadie head upstairs to eat their cupcakes when they saw a beautiful setup of flowers, balloons, champagne, a love note, and dozens of cupcakes. not knowing that the setup was for her, sadie walked over to the table and said something along the lines of, “see! you should do something like this!” it only took a few seconds for her to realize that he had done all of this for her, and, well… you can see her sweet reaction!

we loved getting to know sadie + michael and could immediately sense their kindness and their love for one another. we are so excited for them to get married and “officially” start their family! thanks so much for trusting us to capture your history.

XO,

anna + mateo
