The most wonderful film for our parent's big event

by MikeinSTudioCIty at Citysearch

It was our parents 50th, and we wanted to do something really big. Our event planner recommended Big Life Films to tell the story of their lives together. (They do tribute films for celebrities and the like, so we knew it was going to be an investment.) Their producer interviewed us (really good at getting us to talk), they interviewed Mom and Dad, and Dad's sister back East (they sent a video crew to her house!) They took all our family photos and home movies, and assembled the most beatiful 15-minute tribute to their marriage. We showed it at the dinner, and Dad had to put his head down on the table. (I'd never seen him so emotional). We've all watched our DVD copies many times-- and it was just the best gift I could ever give them.

• Pros: The best. They totally know how to do this.
• Cons: Pricey.
