  Getting Married at Guglielmo's Winery
I do have a few favorite spots to video people for their wedding day so if I seem to be driving a particular venue (or photographer or DJ etc...) it is only because the experience was 100% wonderful, the scenery gorgeous, and the people were great to work with.... oh, and of course the video came out just lovely!
Guglielmo's Winery has three things that really made my day. A gorgeous old-style fountain that was in a brick courtyard and surrounded by bright and beautiful flowers lining every building. Dark red brick buildings with ivy crawling up the sides made for an elegant backdrop in the courtyard, but in another setting altogether you are surrounded by vineyards. Directly behind the ceremony pedestal stretching for hundreds of yards are perfectly aligned grape vines that accentuate a large expanse of grass where the ceremony and reception area takes place. Frankly, the wedding coordinator (I think her name was Jackie, not sure of the spelling) was on the ball and absolutely everything went without a hitch --- but with two people getting hitched if ya know what I mean. Emilio Guglielmo Winery 1480 East Main Ave. Morgan Hill, CA 95037 (408) 779-2145 The only possible drawback for a bridal party is that there is no natural shade there. In the Summer you are likely going to want to provide a tent for your guests. Copntact us if you need a tent. We have an arrangement with a local lighting, design, and media company to get very good prices for our clients.

Approved Photographer Links

Mark Stagi - Fine Art Wedding Photography
Mark and I have worked together several times and one thing that stands out aside from his actual photography skill (which speaks for itself on his website) is his awesome, confident, calm and unobtrusive personality and shooting style. Every time we work together I am reminded of how cool and confident he is. Check out his website - he's a great guy!

Anna Myers Photography
I have worked with Anna Myers twice and have recommended her for corporate jobs as well. Both times I worked with her I was stunned at her creativity, her ability to get stunning shots and work with ct he bride and groom in a comfortable, non-stress inducing way. When I work with Anna our video work and our synergy together to create great shots allows both of us to walk away with some extremely glamorous images.

Geoff White Photography
While I have yet to work with Geoff, I have seen his work countless times at bridal shows (our booths are constantly near each other). Tremendous quality every time I see his new array. You can tell how creative this man is by looking at the effort put into his show booth alone... but once you get sucked into his photo albums, you'll likely do everything possible to get him as your photographer.

Jill Johnson @ Insza Photography
This girl was absolutely wonderful to work with. She works very well with everyone and even amidst the mayhem of a wedding where an entire TV crew was trying to muscle through the hired service providers, she still made sure she got everything the couple wanted.

Darren Wong
Darren and Simply Interactive have worked together on a couple weddings and has one of the highest skill levels we have seen. His compositions and quality are impeccable -- matched only by his top-notch equipment.

Approved DJ Links

San Jose DJs
DJ Earl is an excessively helpful individual. His dedication to his clients means he is willing to go above the call of duty to make things flow smoothly.

Fog City Entertainment
Russ Catanach is just plain awesome! Every time I do a wedding with him he is always prepared. He is smooth, suave, and professional without being humdrum or frustratingly boring. He reads crowds well, and guides the party along. I could not recommend them more.

Carl Mindling Music
This gentleman is a fantastic DJ - smooth, professional, entertaining. Aside from his technical quality, this was one of the most easy going and in-control DJs I've ever met. I can only imagine how he would react under pressure - with the same eloquence.

Approved Venue Links

Nestledown Estates
There are no words that can describe the beauty and serenity of this place. We are proud to have been able to shoot there.

Villa Ragusa - Campbell
Excellent customer service. Wonderful LARGE upscale facility.

Capital Athletics Club - San Jose
Despite the name, this is a beautifully designed building, inside and out. Great Service and wonderful bar/pool table/fireplace. Great ambiance with vaulted ceilings in a victorian interior decor.

Palmdale Estates - Fremont
Palmdale Estates is a beautifully landscaped spacious venue location that uses beautifully designed two-story halls for the reception. Ceremonies are outdoors on lawns.

Seascape Resort - Seascape (just south of Santa Cruz)
This is a great location for a ceremony on a cliff overlooking the ocean. The receptions are indoors.

Byington Winery - Los Gatos
Definitely one of my favorite spots. The ceremony area is at the top of a set of brick steps and surrounded by grape vines and gorgeous, Los Gatos hills covered in hundred year old forest trees. The reception area is inside of a magnificent building covered in ivy. Indoors are huge tanks and an immense cellar houses hundreds of oak barrels for aging wine. Great stuff for video and photo.

Approved Limo Links

White Hat Limo
I can tell you this about White Hat Limo, when it came time to hire a limo service for my 6th anniversary, White Hat Limo was the first place I called. Reliability, quality and price. White Hat Limo is exceptional in all areas.
