The couple got married on a beautiful summer day in August 2017 at Pondvalley Manor, a rustic barn venue in St. Thomas. Our team at Parallel Weddings had two videographers—Branden Murphy and Michael Lazzaro—on site to capture every part of the day, from the ceremony and photoshoot to the reception, all held at Pondvalley Manor. The wedding was non-religious, and the final film was edited by Michael Lazzaro.

OUR REVIEWS
Review: Parallel Productions was absolutely amazing to work with and was easily one of our top vendors of the night! They are professional, courteous and talented at their work. Above all, you can tell they have a passion for their craft and truly care about the people they are serving. From communication and coordination all the way through to execution, Parallel exceeded our expectations and made this part of our wedding so smooth and enjoyable. We would highly recommend Branden and his team for any videography needs!
Day After the Wedding Feedback: First of all, we want to thank you and Branden so much for making this element of our wedding day (including the coordination and lead-up to it) absolutely seamless and enjoyable. We were so pleased with how well Branden shot our day and worked with our photographer and even had many of our family members comment the same.
Film Reaction: We want to extend a big thank you for all your collective hard work to capture our day so beautifully. We absolutely loved our Wedding Film and have been rewatching it over and over again. Our families also loved it and were so thrilled with how well you captured all the different elements of the day and many of us got emotional reliving it.
Thank you again for all your efforts and coordination along this process. It was a busy and demanding season, but your team made this portion of wedding planning so seamless and we are so appreciative of all the thoughtful extras you have thrown in along the way.
We hope to work with you again in the future (and you can bet we are recommending Parallel to all our friends in the meantime). Wishing you both the very best!
Teaser Reaction: Thank you so much for all of this! Wow, we are so grateful for all the work you both have put into organizing and structuring the footage from our day. Thank you also for the complimentary extras, they are so thoughtful and appreciated! We are also so excited to have our teaser and love it!
Branden was amazing to work with! He made both me and my husband feel comfortable and confident in front of his camera and genuinely had such an uplifting personality which made him super fun to work with! I will always recommend Branden and his team to anyone who needs videography/photography requests.
Film Reaction: Thank you so much for sending this over to us! We love it so much and appreciate all the hard work that went in to capturing our day & putting together such a beautiful video! We will be sure to recommend you to future family & friends in the future!
Complimentary Video Still Reaction: Thank you so much! You guys captured still photos of photos we asked our photographer for that she never captured so we’re super grateful for those!!
Joe and I's experience with Parallel was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. We had both photo and video for our wedding through Parallel and from the very first email inquiring to now post wedding I have only amazing things to say. Larissa, who coordinates everything and is the main point of contact is extremely organized and made the entire process to easy for us. She kept us organized and ensured everything was taken care of and we are aware of every detail and timeline post wedding. The wedding itself was great. Branden and Nadeem are super stars. It was so lovely to work with them day of and so stress-free. They captured every single detail, suggested what shots to do, and are so incredibly talented and experienced in what they do. I would recommend them over and over to anyone! Thank you Parallel team for capturing one of the best days of our lives!
Day After the Wedding Feedback: Wow. Where do I begin.. Nadeem and Branden were phenomenal!
Before the wedding itself they were calm, cool, and helped so much in keeping me calm and cool! I appreciated their demeanour so much. They were everywhere all at once and I am amazed at the amount of footage they covered without me even noticing them. They were extremely professional throughout and just a joy to work with. I didn’t have to worry about a thing and I am extremely grateful for that. The raw footage itself is BEAUTIFUL - Joe and I have stayed up many nights since receiving the footage just reliving the day. The many camera angles, the hidden shots, the staged shots - WOW!!! They captured Joe and I’d fairytale in such a beautiful way.
I mentioned this to them as well, but also such a big thank you to YOU [Larissa]! You’ve kept me on top of everything for the past year and I thank you for being so organized and so extremely kind throughout. I felt extremely supported throughout the process and was not stressed at all. Everyone needs a Larissa!!
A big thank you to all three of you, from the bottom of my heart.
Film Reaction: I cannot praise you all enough. The wedding film is ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. The music, the editing, the shots, everything is amazing. We are beyond happy and pleased.
Once again I want to echo the work you all have done. From the communications throughout the process, to the professionalism the day of, to the photos and videos captured, the editing. We are extremely pleased and I really do think everyone should book you for their weddings!!!
Thank you to all of you, from the bottom of our hearts, for capturing the best day of our life and playing such a key role in preserving the memories for us forever. We cannot thank you enough.
Photo Reaction: Nadeem, WOW! You are so extremely talented - these are stunning, I can’t stop staring at them!!! A million thank you’s from Joe and I.
