Peter has a pretty much different love story short film. For the first time, we have not included the bride-to-be in a love story, and this time, peter’s love story is all about him getting ready for his wife, Lavina to move in and start a new life as husband and wife. This concept love story is based on how his life has changed since lavina came into his life; from a simple guy with no fashion sense to a fashionable man, from a guy who had no regular meals to a health conscious guy who has organic oats and tea every morning and a vegetarian these days, and from a guy who dislikes house-cleaning to someone who does house chores. The changes that lavina brought into his life has made him a better and healthier person. Despite all the obstacles that they have gone through, they’ve made it through. That is why pete wanted to surprise lavina with this video..

Peter’s Love Story – I am all set to go! from Doodle Studio on Vimeo.

Peter who is of greek background, whilst Lavina of northen indian background had a mixed culture wedding in Melbourne last week. It was a great fun coz they had a mehendi night 2 days before, and a greek lunch the day before their wedding day. This is our first experience in filming a greek event. In their greek lunch, they had their tradition greek dance and plate breaking session. Yeah the greeks love dancing as much as indians, they each have different style but are equally fun!! It was fun to be there to experience their double-culture celebration and they certainly have not missed any of the tradition moments.

After having watched prashi and anu’s ’sweetie & cutie’ love story, many of you may be eager to see their wedding highlights. Here goes:-

Prashi and anu got wedded back in January in Melbourne, with the presence of their relatives and friends who came from near and far to celebrate their big day. Despite they have lived in aussie for over 20 years, they do not forget the traditions and customs, for they still practice their tradition wedding rituals. Their parents had even special order a mandap from india just for their wedding use, just to name a few here. To simplify their wedding: One young loving and happy couple, wonderful family, spontaneous and hospitable hearts, great wedding; simply a nice wedding with lots of love from friends and families. Throughout our week long stay in doncaster, you and your family have been tremendously nice and hospitable to us.

Without much ado, here is their wedding highlights… enjoy it!

ANU + PRASHI | MELBOURNE WEDDING HIGHLIGHT from Doodle Studio on Vimeo.

The year 2010 has started off amazingly and unexpectedly great for us as jared and i spent almost 3 weeks of Jan 2010 in melbourne, the place where we are most fond of. I’m sure many of you have been wondering where have we disappeared to for we have not been blogging for a long time. Alas, we’re back and this time with some great stuff to share with. This long work-cation (work plus vacation) has turned out to be the most memorable amongst all, with the hospitality from prashi, anu, sanjev, rashmi, their family members and friends, and the opportunity to film prashi and anu’s love story and wedding. It was our great great honor to work with anu and prashi, they are simply nice, natural and coorperative; shooting them simply made us laugh.

When prashi and anu discussed their storyline with us, we were thrilled and could not wait to film theirs.  Since it was our first attempt, we were under a lot of pressure ‘coz they would be premiering it on the reception night. It was not easy but we got to pull it off. Shooting in melbourne has been great; the shooting process was fun despite the long hours, wonderful melbourne streets as any little corner could create superb shots, and the cool weather that makes the shooting pleasant. Of course it was not easy to act in public, but with their out-going and easy-going characteristics, all these was not a problem to them, and they only had one-take for most of the shots.

They had this pre-wedding love story video premiered it at their dinner reception and the thunderous response got us (and the couple) blown away!! Everyone of the guests enjoyed watching it coz every single act of theirs got the guests laughed heartily, and even the waiters and waitresses stopped their work for the moment and stood at the side or back of the hall to watch the video.

Of course, our video won’t be a success if it wasn’t for prashi, anu and their amazing friends’ coorperation through out the filming process. Again, to prashi and anu: thank you so much for having us there

Next Destination: Its Me!bourne

Travel Period: 11th January 2010 – 29th January 2010

Mission: Wedding Assignment (3 days) + Prenuptial Video-filming (spots available for booking..contact us now!!!)

It has been about 3 years plus since Jared and I left me!bourne after our degree graduation, and both of us just can’t wait to go back there and experience the me!bourne lifestyle that we both missed so much. Jared and I first met eyes in me!bourne during our RMiT university study years via malaysian student association club of RMiT, and the rest is history. Me!bourne is the city where we first met, where our love blossomed, where we shared our passion and love, where we enjoyed our companionship with one another, where we had our little weekend getaway together, where we spent most of our times with our Sefton-42 buddies and we literally experienced everything together. As the months draw nearer, all the fond memories of us in me!bourne keep flashing pass our mind, with all the images of me!bourne that we could still picture. The figure 3 years plus may not be long for most people, but the period is definitely a long one for us. Me!bourne is like a second home to us, and it just feel so great having to know that we will be flying back to our second home when our me!bourne couple booked us about 9 months back.

Yes! Jared and I will be flying back to me!bourne in january 2010 for a wedding assignment, and we will be staying there for a good 2 and a half weeks. Hence we would have plenty of time for some good me!bourne prenuptial video filming within the city (or even within victoria vicinity!!) for you me!bourne couples out there! Or if you are travelling to me!bourne during our stay there, and would love to have your prenuptial video film in an entire different feel, just give us a ring and come experience the doodles prenup in me!bourne !!

Looking back at the me!bourne pictures sure remind me of how plump and chubby i was... *blush*
