Mary Blake & Raymond- Wedding Highlights

Charlotte, NC

As if Raymond’s wedding day wasn’t an emotional roller coaster already, he marries a bride as talented as Mary Blake that surprises him during the ceremony to a song she recorded and sang herself! It was a great, timeless moment seeing them up on stage in front of all their closest friends and family, but the unique moments didn’t stop there. I’m not sure I’ve ever had the privilege of filming a wedding where the bride and groom serenade their guests to a song with guitar at the reception either. Talent all around. And of course, it not only illustrated Raymond and Mary Blake’s  quirky yet romantic feelings towards each other, but really allowed the guests to get to know their true selves as well!

It was an honor for us to film Mary Blake’s wedding, as I (Matt) have known the Puckett family for most of my life. Being able to take a step back and be the one to document this exciting day for everyone was a real thrill for me. I’m not sure people really understand how incredible it is to witness a large group of people coming together and celebrating….together. Really together. The dancing, the hugs and the laughter never stopped all night. You can see from the highlights film above, how much of a fun party and celebration it was. Brides, you want a classy venue? Look no further than The Club at Longview. Let me share with everyone a few unique things that stuck out to us about this wedding.

1. Mary Blake & Raymond’s matching “chucks”. Sneakers under a dress is very cool!

2. Mary Blake surprised Raymond with a recorded song during the ceremony.

3. The Pastor faces the bride and groom and the bride and groom faced the audience during the vows. Very intimate and very inclusive for everyone else. Loved it.

4. Mr. Puckett dances with his daughter to “Hootie and the Blowfish” for their Father/Daughter dance. Everyone was singing along.

5. Mary Blake and Raymond sang on stage to their guests an acoustic love song. Perfect ending to a perfect night.

Thanks to both families for allowing us to capture this day for you. We hope you enjoy watching this highlights film of the wedding day just as much as we enjoyed filming it.
