Emily & Adam’s Wedding Film at The Pavilion at Carriage Farm
A Five-Part Cinematic Wedding Film Experience
Emily & Adam’s wedding day at The Pavilion at Carriage Farm was filled with emotion, connection, and meaningful moments - and their wedding film experience was intentionally designed to preserve all of it.
Instead of receiving a single video, their story unfolds through five separate films, each serving a different purpose and delivered at different moments after the wedding. Together, these films create a layered, cinematic way to relive the day — from immediate emotion to long-term legacy.
Below is a look at Emily & Adam’s complete four-film wedding experience.
The Final Wedding Film
The full story of the day
This is Emily & Adam’s complete wedding film, a carefully crafted narrative that captures how the day felt, not just what happened.
The final film includes:
Preparations and quiet in-between moments
The ceremony and vows
Natural transitions between parts of the day
Emotional reactions from loved ones
Select audio moments woven in to support the story
Some audio from family and friends is intentionally layered into this film to enhance emotional impact but the final film is focused on storytelling and flow, not documentation alone.
This is the film couples return to year after year.
Wedding Film Sneak Peek
Delivered one week after the wedding
One week after the wedding, Emily & Adam received a short highlight sneak peek - a cinematic glimpse into the emotion and energy of their day.
The sneak peek:
Focuses on feeling and atmosphere
Highlights a few key moments
Is designed to be easily shared with friends and family
It’s the first chance to relive the wedding while everything is still fresh.
Wedding Film Trailer
Delivered one week before the final film
The wedding film trailer is sent one week before the final film is delivered. It’s designed to build anticipation and invite couples to slow down and reflect before watching the full story.
This trailer:
Introduces the emotional arc of the day
Creates excitement for the final release
Acts as a transition between memory and preservation
The Interview Film
A legacy keepsake featuring loved ones’ voices
The fourth piece of Emily & Adam’s wedding film experience is their Interview Film.
Before the wedding, loved ones were asked a set of custom interview questions, designed specifically for Emily & Adam. These interviews capture voices, laughter, emotion, and stories from the people who matter most.
Some of this audio appears in the final wedding film
All interview footage and audio lives in this dedicated film
This interview film becomes a legacy piece - something couples can return to decades from now to hear the voices of parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends exactly as they were on that day.
It’s not about perfection. It’s about presence.
The One-Year Anniversary Film
One year after the wedding, couples receive a dedicated anniversary film - the fifth and final chapter in their wedding story, created to celebrate their first year of marriage and reflect on how the day feels with time and perspective. This film is delivered privately and becomes a meaningful tradition couples can return to year after year.
Why We Deliver Wedding Films This Way
Wedding days move quickly, but the meaning behind them lasts a lifetime. By delivering films in stages, couples get to experience their wedding day in layers:
Immediate emotion → Sneak Peek
Anticipation & reflection → Trailer
Complete storytelling → Final Film
Voices & legacy → Interview Film
Time, growth & remembrance → One-Year Anniversary Film
Instead of receiving everything at once, couples are invited to pause, reflect, and relive their wedding multiple times — each time with new depth.
A Venue Made for Storytelling
The Pavilion at Carriage Farm in Raleigh, North Carolina offers open landscapes, soft light, and a calm atmosphere that allows moments to unfold naturally. Emily & Adam’s films are a perfect example of how this venue supports cinematic storytelling without feeling staged or rushed.
Final Thoughts
Emily & Adam’s wedding films aren’t just videos - they’re a time capsule.
From the excitement of the sneak peek to the anticipation of the trailer, the emotional depth of the final film, and the irreplaceable voices preserved in the interview film, their story was captured with intention at every stage.
This four-film experience ensures that their wedding day isn’t just remembered - it’s preserved, felt, and revisited for generations.
