May 2008

Congratulations to my friend, boss, and associate Chris Proulx. We met at RSN 10 years ago (WOW), and yesterday RSN had a small gathering at Delaney’s for Lunch. No major gag gifts but the food, and Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream cake was out of this world!  Did I  mention this was a “surprise” organized by our station manager Melissa - she told Chris that Delaney’s needed a new interview so chris arrived looking around for Dick (owner) and looking where to set up the shoot when he stumbled across his friends! SURPRISE!

Great to meet and see everyone!

Jeff, Carl, Susan and John came over from RSN headquarters in Portland, ME. Dave from the Sunday River Station - Melissa, Bowie, Kelly and I from RSN North Conway, Krissy and Greg from Attitash and Kim Beals from Hospialitymaps.com

Congratulations my cousin Francesca Simone! She will be going to the Miss America Pageant in 2009! Fran is getting her Masters and studying vocal performance at the Boston Conservatory.  

She won the talent portion of the evening, won the Miss America Academic Scholarship, and an array of other scholarships she can use now and in future degree programs!

Fran has a HUGE year coming up, this goes so much further beyond the crown and title. She has a lot of work coming up both in the schools, for her platform, Alzheimer’s Awareness and to many other causes.

We are so proud of you! Wish we could have been there!

3/8/08 at Church Landing - they got the Proof DVD this week.

Hi Meg!

We got the video on Saturday and let me tell you, I had to refrain from calling you right then and there to tell you how great it was. I am really impressed with how well you captured the day AND our personalities. My 15 year old sister was like “man, I thought that was going to suck to watch, but it was wicked fun!”

We absolutely loved all the music you chose! Especially the openning sequence to “it’s the final countdown”. Very cool. That song was the theme of the last month of the wedding, and its brilliant to have it as a reminder in the video. The montage to Ballroom Blitz was amazing as well. Definitely one of my favorite songs, so it was great to have that in there.

Okay, I will say it again, you really out did yourself. The video was amazing…we kept joking around and saying “its like she knows us!”. It was really just great…like the cliche says - we laughed, and we cried! It was just spectacular.

Thanks again and I will follow up soon!

Best,
Jamie & Lenny

I’ve been editing the Sharp-Cornwell Wedding at Church Landing 4/26/08. Andrew can be seen tending bar at most other weddings so he may be a familiar face to those who have attended a wedding there. They had a all-star line up of vendors, and since most of them know Andrew, I will try to feature a photo or video clip of them here in coming weeks.

Congrats to Steph and Andrew!

I met today with my June 21st wedding couple for the Mt. Washington Hotel and LOVE love LOVE their wedding invitation made locally in Berlin. Stay tuned for posts on who created them! I’ll be at the Hotel on May 17th for a wedding as well.
Here are some clips from weddings past specifically at the resort.

Archive Clip of the Month II

I started doing an “archive clip of the month” last month… going back to the vault! In this short clip potential clients will see how important it will be in another 25, 50+ years when your kids, kids, and extended family are cozying up to the fireplace and flat screen to watch memories of days gone by. It’s an investment…but worth it

Relive the moment…share your story!

The Mt. Washington Valley Business to Business Expo 2008! Always a blast to see people and network (and eat a lot of chocolate treats!) The hotel addition is coming along out back where the pool was. Lunch was delicious! The dining room looks great - the ballroom where all the vendors were set up and lobby all look great too. The view…unchanged and spectacular! See you up there on 5/17, 6/21 and 6/28 for some fabulous weddings! I also visited with Sheena Harte from Harte Rentals today - if you are looking for anything from linens, flatware, accessories like chair covers, sashes, aisle runners etc… they have it all - just click here.

Christo-Brennan Wedding: Beat It! from meg simone on Vimeo.

March 8, 2008 at Church Landing. The Christo-Brennan wedding was off the hook! This is just a sample clip - the audio may not be in sync. (Update, the audio is NOT in sync) Trying to work out glitches as I’m trying a new web video clip host so I can blog in High Def. Just FYI the file is large, so let it load for a bit before viewing. Thanks for your patience!
