1. Sophia and Mike’s Sequoia Wedding in DC

    Posted November 23th, 2011

    Ok, so up next is Sophia and Mike’s epic Georgetown Wedding. I have to apologize because i’ve been so behind with blogging. With shooting every weekend, and the holidays quickly approaching, it gets the back seat sometime. :( But, here I am regardless!

    Sophia and Mike’s Wedding was such a blast. It was one of those all day events, that started early in the morning, and went through midnight. By the end of it you feel so exhausted, and at the same time sad, because you don’t want it to end.

    I must say that the highlight of the day was the reception at the Sequoia. The lights, the water, the boats, it was awesome. And to top it off, Sophia and Mike had a dance number with the bridal party that was KILLER. If you don’t have time to watch the whole video, then let it load, and jump to the 10:53 mark, you won’t be disappointed. :)

  2. Regina and Brad’s Georgetown Wedding

    Posted October 26th, 2011

    Regina and Brad’s Wedding was such a treat. After the ceremony at Holy Trinity in DC, we spent some time walking around the church, and got some great shots. We then headed to the Bensten Residence where the cocktail and reception was held. Regina and Brad had a super classy, backyard wedding and a performance by Regina’s Dad that made the night so much fun. Congrats Regina and Brad!

  3. Jessica and David’s National Harbor Wedding

    Posted October 6th, 2011

    Jessica and David’s wedding day started out at The National Harbor Westin, where they both got ready for what was such a gorgeous day. Jessica contacted me through a mutual friend of ours, Ryan Deal, so the wedding ended up being more personal as I bumped in to more and more people I knew.

    They were married in downtown Alexandra with a reception to follow back at The National Harbor’s Sunset Room. I hope you enjoy the video. Congrats Jessica and David!

  4. Chelsea and Michael’s Maryland Wedding

    Posted September 19th, 2011

    This is a very special feature today, because it just so happens to be my own wedding video I am sharing! This past August, I was married to my best friend, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect day. We were surrounded by our family and friends and had the best time ever.

    Monachetti has the privilege of having a great videographer and editor on board, and who else would I have shoot and edit my own wedding then him! I was thrilled to have Tyler Davis do the video, and man was I blown away (obviously i’m a little bias). Grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy. For those of you interested in the details of the wedding day, see the credits below the video.

  5. Angelica and Scott’s Wedding

    Posted August 31th, 2011

    Angelica and Scott’s Summer Wedding was so much fun. I had a blast spending time with them both as they got ready at the Courtyard Marriott in Tysons Corner. The ceremony and reception to follow were so special too, filled with lots of laughs and priceless moments. BUT, their is a fun story to share about this couple that makes them a bit different.

    If you don’t already know, I was recently Married on August 6 to the love of my life (video and photos to come soon)! I spent a week in Mexico with my beautiful wife Chelsea at Maroma Beach (already wishing I was back there). Well, at the end of Angelica and Scott’s wedding, as I was saying my farewell and asking them where they were off too for their honeymoon… and what do they say? They respond with Maroma Beach!

    They then proceed to tell me they are not leaving for another week (doing the post wedding family hang), which would put them at Maroma the same week as Chelsea and I (since we were married the following weekend). Ha! SO, to make a long story short, we got to spend a fun few moments with them in Mexico, making their wedding (and video of course) that much more memorable for me. Congrats to you guys, much love!

  6. Lauren and Ryan’s Summer Wedding

    Posted August 26th, 2011

    Ok, so I thought it would be a good time to feature the newest wedding video on my blog, before we lose power from Hurricane Irene. This way atleast some of you can get a sneak peak beforehand. :) Up next is Lauren and Ryan’s Wedding. Oh my, where to start.

    Lauren and Ryan contacted me over a year in advance, so it was one of those long awaited weddings I was eager to shoot. They were such a fun couple, who’s admiration for each other couldn’t be more evident in the video. Lauren and Ryan’s wedding was also designed by Lauren’s event planning business, so be sure to follow her latest and greatest projects over at BeLovely Events. I’ve included some vendor details below the video, so be sure to check the others out as well. Enjoy!

  8. Cat and Chris’s Camp Letts Wedding

    Posted August 15th, 2011

    Cat and Chris’s wedding at Camp Letts was a blast. I’m not sure if it was the location or the genuine fun you could tell everyone was having, but this wedding was so great. Their vows (which you can hear in the beginning of the video) made the ceremony that much more special. I hope you have as much fun watching this video as I did at the wedding. Enjoy!

  10. Andrea and Brandon’s Oatlands Plantation Wedding

    Posted June 19th, 2011

    Andrea and Brandon’s gorgeous Virginia Wedding is the first of many weddings hitting the blog this season. Every weekend from here until Christmas I get to spend filming another beautiful couple’s wedding. So excited to share it all with you!

    As so many of my weddings, I’d have to say the highlight of Andrea and Brandon’s Wedding was the First Look. Although it only lasts but a few minutes, it’s always so much fun, and special. The time spent afterwards is always so memorable. We got a chance to walk around the gardens and enjoy the grounds at Oatlands Plantation. I hope you enjoy this snapshot of Andrea and Brandon’s Wedding!

    Music: Stars “Ageless Beauty” and Justice “D.A.N.C.E”
