Jewish Wedding at Sixth & I

admin — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 19:44:00 +0000

I recently finished a wedding video that was jam packed with so many of my favorite things - Sixth & I, Elegance & Simplicity, Tom Van Veen, of Documentary Associates, and the Decatur House. You can see from this short recap some of the highlights of the ketubah signing, the ceremony, and the reception.

The ketubah signing, bedeken and ceremony were at historic Sixth & I. It’s such a great place to have a ceremony and the chuppah was gorgeous. The flowers, provided by Elegance & Simplicity, were, if course, beautiful. Elegance & Simplicity also did the wedding planning, so everything ran on track.

I also got to work with one of my favorite photographers, and probably the photographer I have known the longest, Tom Van Veen. He was nice enough to share some of his lovely photos from the day, so you can see why couples keep hiring him. I just love working with him because he’s so much fun!

The reception was at the Decatur House. I love videotaping there, especially when they have the outdoor tent set up. It’s a great space and provides a beautiful backdrop for a beautiful day.

This couple had a great wedding, but with such a top notch team of vendors, I can’t imagine how it could’ve been anything but perfect.

The Bliss Collection 2011

admin — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 13:49:23 +0000

I have had many opportunities in the past decade to meet a lot of wonderful wedding vendors. Brides always ask me, specifically, if I get along with their photographer. It seems like such a funny question to me, because I usually love the photographers I work with and get along great with just about everyone. For the most part, this is a pretty friendly industry.

When it comes to referrals, I have a lot of great people to choose from in nearly every category. I try to find out the bride’s tastes, budget, and concerns, and then recommend the most fitting vendors for her needs. Often, those vendors are fellow members of The Bliss Collection, Northern Virginia’s finest wedding professionals.

The mission of The Bliss Collection is to promote the development and growth of member businesses within the Northern Virginia wedding market. Each member of The Bliss Collection has to be asked to join and approved by majority vote, so you know that all of the vendors in The Bliss Collection get along great and respect each others work.

I am honored that I was recently voted, for the second year in a row, President of The Bliss Collection, and am excited for us to grow over the next year. Our newly elected Vice President, Mary Supley Foxworth, of MallowDrama, has been a great help in planning some of our internal education as well as events we have set for the rest of the year. Stay tuned. You will be hearing a lot more about The Bliss Collection in the coming months.

Jessica Pi Productions is happy to announce that we have, for the third year in a row, won the Bride’s Choice Award from Wedding Wire. That means we are in the top 5 percent of videographers in our region.

I am so pleased by this award because we earned it by being voted the best by our clients - the brides and grooms whose wedding day memories we’ve captured over the years. My goal is not to win awards, but to make my clients happy, but this award shows that that’s exactly what we have been doing, year after year.

Jessica Piscitelli presents at TEDx

I am speaking at TEDx Glen Echo on December 8th, 2010. The event is a women’s conference, so my presentation is about the status of women in today’s society. It’s a fairly heady topic, but I feel up to the task. I am excited to be associated with TEDx. I have enjoyed watching their programs online in the past and am happy now to be one of their future videos!

The Honor Roll

I made the 2009 Elegant Event Planning & Design Honor Roll!

Lisa Nelson, owner of Elegant Event Planning, recently posted her list of the Best Wedding Vendors of 2009, and I was excited to be chosen as the best videographer. You can see a complete list of all of the Honor Roll Vendors here, or click the following to read what Lisa had to say about my work and why she chose me as the Best Videographer!

This is much better than all those times I was on the honor roll in High School! First of all, I really like all the other kids who made the list, and secondly, I like the selection process better. I never was very good with averages, so I prefer being hand chosen for doing something I love to do.

Thank you Lisa. I am looking forward to working with you and the entire Elegant Event Planning staff on many more elegant and beautiful events in 2010!
