People say it’s the best day of your life. And it’s definitely a day you’ll remember forever and one you’ll want to share with others. YES—I’m talking about weddings. But there’s nothing worse than being forced to watch a painful 7 hour video of THAT day (yours or someone else’s) moment by moment, bobby pin by bobby pin. Weddings can be intense, problematic (“Bridesmaids” ring a bell?), and tediously detailed, but also wonderful and magical.

That’s where Mariage à la mode comes in. Founders Zoe and her husband Mat will make a six-minute, 8mm silent film of your wedding scored to music of your choice. They’ll capture all those tear-jerking moments, and 6 weeks later send you a Gatsby-inflected DVD that you and your friends will actually want to watch.

You’ll laugh, you’ll cry and you won’t regret not hiring uncle Larry who has a penchant for capturing people’s feet.
