Wedding Venues·Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel
Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel.
A wedding I've filmed at Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel.
Gate crash and tea ceremony at home, letters in a hotel room, then the solemnisation and lunch in the Grand Ballroom.
Filming at Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel
The morning
Kelsey got ready at home, and the gate crash ran from the front gate to her bedroom door, with a quiz and a few games for the groomsmen along the way. The tea ceremony was at her home too.
Letters
Back at the hotel, Alex and Kelsey read letters to each other in a room at the hotel before the ceremony. I cut those letters through the film, so their own words carry the story.
Grand Ballroom
The solemnisation was on stage in the Grand Ballroom, with guests already seated at their tables, and lunch followed in the same room. Speeches went through the hotel's sound system; I took the audio straight from the mixer, with a small recorder on the handheld mic as a backup.
Their dance
Alex and Kelsey rehearsed a dance that started as a ballroom dance and turned into Big Bang's “Bang Bang Bang”, sunglasses and all.
How many hours to book
Alex & Kelsey booked 9 hours, from the gate crash in the morning to the end of lunch.
