Chelsae and Kevin's Ceremony Highlight

This is the couple's second of three highlights. It starts with the bride entering the Caldwell Chapel for the ceremony and ends with post ceremony pictures. We were able to walk over to the rose garden at Gardencourt to get some amazing shots. The couple's love for each other is very apparent in all the intimate moments in the video. The photographer was Adam Cole with Three Spot Images.

Chelsae and Kevin's Precermony Highlight

Kevin and Chelsae were wed at the Caldwell Chapel on the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminar Campus. The Chapel has beautiful stain glass windows. The altar was a glow with cyan illuminating the couple as they declared their vows to one another. The other two highlights will soon follow.

Morgan and Josh's Same Day Edit

Yesterday, ICVideo filmed the wedding of Morgan and Josh at The Olmstead. Morgan with the help of Shafox Weddings and Events decorated the Olmstead beautifully. Four large Christmas trees decorated the alter along with a huge bouquet of red flowers that hung from the ceiling. We did have the pleasure of working with the photographer Eric Graf.

This highlight was filmed and edited by the end of the reception. Morgan and Josh, along with their guest, enjoyed watching a recap of the special day.

Barbara and Spencer chose to take their wedding pictures before their ceremony. This is a highlight of them seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day and the photo session that followed by Josh Perkins from RedTree Photography.

Kelly and Ryan's Reception Highlight

The last of four highlights for the couple. Kelly and Ryan chose the song "Unforgettable" by Nat King Cole. This highlight has a more romantic style to match all the loving embraces and glances the bride and groom gave to each other throughout the reception. It was a pleasure to work with Ryan and Kelly and we wish them the best.

Betheny and Brian's DVD Highlights

This couple really enjoyed their day! Their reception highlight is my favorite because it shows how exciting the day was and how much fun they had with their family and friends. They chose the new Chris Brown song "Forever". The high energy in the song allowed me to get creative with the cuts and colors. The first highlight is of their preceremony and the second is of the ceremony and post ceremony photo shoot.

The Wedding of Emily and Jerrod

This was a grand affair! Emily and Jerrod were wed in the formal rose garden at Gardencourt. The bride had multiple stylist and make-up artist come in to assist during the preceremony. The bride bought parasols for the bridal party that made for some fantastic shots. We had the pleasure of working with Todd Nichols again. He recently posted one amazing picture of the couple as a teaser on his blog.




The reception was held at the Henry Clay Building downtown. It began with cocktails with entertainment provided by a Bluegrass music ensemble. The Grand Ballroom was a glow with amber. Emily's father gave the most heart warming speech to the newlyweds. Emily's sister's presented Ryan and Emily with a top ten slide show that would rival David Letterman's. And yes...Cheetos are the most under rated food!



Check back for the highlights soon!

Megan and Phillip's Preceremony Highlight

This is the first of three highlights we are creating for Megan and Phillip. This church is St. James Catholic Church on Bardstown Road. The couple choose "Sea of Love" by Cat Power. My favorite shot is the one at the end of the beautiful ceiling.

Kaitlin and Dante DVD Highlights

Below are the three highlights from Kaitlin and Dante's wedding. Each couple chooses their own music for their highlights. The first highlight is preceremony at the Cathedral of Assumption set to the song "Bubbly." The second is the actual ceremony and the post ceremony photo session taken by Josh Merideth, a great photographer, from Bella Grace Studios. The last is at the Seelbach down in the Rathskeller Room. My favorite would be the second one with all of the great Steadicam shots. ICVideo's number of highlights is determined by the amount of coverage each couple chooses. Many of our competitors try to squeeze all of the day's events into one song, which does not give any wedding justice. Book with us! We are very proud of our highlights that we spend a great deal of time creating to tell a unique story of each wedding.

*Just a note! The videos that are uploaded on Vimeo do not show the true fluid shots due to file size. I have not quite figured out how to fix it yet, but I will add it to the list. The DVD albums that couples get are of much higher quality.

Barbara and Michael


This wedding we traveled to Flaherty to be a part of Michael and Barbara's special day. They were married at St. Martins of Tours Catholic Church and held their reception at the Leaders Club at Fort Knox.


The groom and all of the groomsmen entered the reception with their pants hiked up showing off their well coordinated socks!



Photographing the wedding was Josh from RedTree Photography. Similar to the photographer, we really work hard to capture all of the events but also the details. Brides spend so many months planning all of the small details and we like to include all of those in our videos so you can relive the whole ambiance of the day.

Kelly and Ryan

ICVideo recently filmed the wedding of Kelly and Ryan at the Crestwood United Methodist Church and reception at the Gardencourt Estate.



Gardencourt is a beautiful place to have a reception. The formal rose garden with its water fountain creates a romantic background for pictures and video. Kelly and Ryan were a great couple to work with and I look forward to finishing their highlights.

Nicole and Tom

ICVideo had the pleasure of filming Tom and Nicole's wedding at the Cathedral of Assumption and reception at the Seelbach. Jason started off at the bride's house taping her bridal prep, photo session, and departure in the limo. I was with the groom at the Seelbach covering the photo session and walk from the hotel to the church a couple blocks away. We taped the ceremony with four cameras and three at the reception, including one of them as our 12 ft crane.





The wedding was coordinated by Ellen from ShaFox Weddings and Events. The reception began in the Oak Room with cocktails and appetizers. Then it continued downstairs in the Grand Ballroom. They did have the most incredible band from Atlanta for the entertainment. The bride's family was Italian and later after a great deal of dancing the servers entered one after the other with pizza pies for all the guests. In addition to the wedding cake, there was a long table with platters of colorful gourmet cookies that were served for dessert.

Todd Nichols was photographing the event. If you visit his blog on the website you can view the pictures from the wedding. They are beautiful!

Sophisticated Living-Behind the Scene



Josh Merideth from Bella Grace Studios is the photographer for Sophisticated Living Weddings and Sophisticated Living Magazine. We have worked great together on weddings in the past and he recently referred us to videotape a behind-the-scene promotional video for their website. The magazine's upcoming edition will feature several different bridal gowns and fashions for bridesmaids and mothers of the bride.


Once again, working with Josh was easy and our services complemented each other so well. We were able to use our 12ft crane and our steadicam equipment, which gives us the great floating camera shots. We look forward to seeing the upcoming issue!

Teresa and Barry



Barry and Teresa were wed at the Cathedral of Assumption and celebrated afterwards high above the Louisville skyline in the Waterford Room at the Galt House. The reception was very lively. Barry and Teresa were fortunate enough to book Barb and Eddie from John E's for their entertainment.



My favorite at this wedding was the short carriage ride over to the Galt House that the couple took. The guest loved it and it provided some great shots.

Kaitlin and Dante



At this wedding we were at the Cathedral of Assumption for the ceremony and the Rathskeller in the Seelbach Hilton Hotel for the reception. The wedding was coordinated by Jessica from Jessica Safley Events. Kaitlin and Jessica's choices in venues, color schemes, flowers, and entertainment made it one of the most elegant weddings. I especially liked the bridal party's attire. The green bridesmaid dresses were beautiful and I overheard the men commenting on how the green vests are "not so bad." That's quite a good compliment coming from the men.



We did have the pleasure of working with Josh Merideth from Bella Grace Studios again. We were able to preview some of the photographs from the wedding and they were gorgeous.

One of my favorites at this wedding was the groom's cake. The cannolis looked so delicious!

Megan and Phillip

This wedding was fit for a princess! The ceremony took place at St. James Catholic Church on Bardstown Road. This is one of my favorite churches in Louisville the ceiling is absolutely beautiful.



The reception took place at the The Frazier Arms Museum. Cocktails were served on the Roof Garden and the reception continued downstairs on the Fourth Floor Cultural Arts Center. The Roof Garden provided a wonderful view of the river.



The theme of the reception was Disney with princess music and Cinderella decorations. The wedding cake even had a glass slipper on top!

Bethany and Brian



Bethany and Brian married at St Stephen Martyr Church and had a great reception at Kye's. What I like most about Kye's is the black and white checkered dance floor, it makes for some great shots. There was so much energy and dancing at the reception. Instead of the usual group of guest that just sit and watch, it seemed as though everyone enjoyed themselves dancing.

Josh from Bella Grace Studios photographed the wedding. We really enjoy working with Josh. He is such a talented photographer and can capture beautiful images without taking a great deal of time. One difference that I have noticed between great photographers and photographers that may not be as great is their ability to get the job done quick. Couples who make the investment in a talented photographer do not have their time monopolized by the repeated poses and cues to smile. The photographer knows what shots are best and gets it right the first time. I highly recommend making the investment. You will enjoy your wedding day more by simply having more time with your guest. Josh would be a great one to contact.

Nadene and Joseph



A beautiful day at Lakeside Reflections in Jeffersonville, IN! Nadene and Joseph were married underneath the gazebo outside and celebrated late into the evening inside one of the banquet halls. The couple meet overseas while serving in the military. The wedding was the first time their families had a chance to meet. You would have never guessed it with all of the dancing at the reception. We brought our 12 foot crane and captured some great shots of the dance floor. I am very excited to complete their highlights.

Blair and Andrew



This was such a fun group of people to work with! The girls were not shy in front of the camera at all and it made for such great video. Being in front of a camera can be intimidating and one way we try to combat this is to attend all rehearsals. Introducing ourselves to friends and family the day before the wedding allows them to meet the people who will be behind the camera the next day.



Blair and Andrew's wedding was held at St. John's United Church of Christ and the reception followed and the Henry Clay Building. The newly renovated Henry Clay Building was a beautiful hall for a reception with its tall ceilings, elaborate windows, and ornate decor.

Check back soon we should have all of the highlights completed soon.



We did have the pleasure of working with Tony Matkey. He shot great pictures and since then I have become a fan of his blog.

Tiffany and Chris


This couple had a wonderful story. They met in eight grade while attending Saint Aloysius in Crestwood. They were great friends throughout school and college. When she returned from living in Greece they rekindled their love. They married at Saint Patrick Church and had their reception at the Olmstead.

We had the opportunity to work with Josh from RedTree Photography. His studio is actually located in the same office park as ours. I am sure we will be working with him much more in the future.

Ellen from Shafox Weddings and Events was the wedding planner. She did a fabulous job making the reception unique. There were amazing ice sculptures, including a bar completely carved out of ice. The cake was beautifully adorned by peacock feathers. Every time we work with Ellen we are surprised by each new design and how smoothly everything is organized.
