While it has been raining and pouring north of Alicante, in Javea, Denia, Moraira, Altea and even Benidorm, in Torrevieja we have enjoyed great winter weather, with is something that couples might consider for next year, 2010.<br /><br />Our last wedding of the season was on November 22nd, for a lovely couple from Norway, and a small group of around 20 family and friends. The venue was the stunning Castillo de Conesa in San Miguel which is becoming a very popular venue since it's total renovation last year.<br /><br />Lars and Elena only allowed me 10-minutes to capture them alone, so we worked quickly to get them seated at the table before six o'clock for dinner. <br /><br />For those thinking of a winter wedding, October and November on the Southern Costa Blanca can be fabulous this time of year.<br /><br />In general prices for everything are cheaper, including flights to both Murcia and Alicante. we have good light until about 1800 hrs and temperature can be a good as decent summer weather in the UK or Ireland! <br /><br />December and January can be hit or miss but from February onwards, your chances of getting a sunny day are at least as good as you getting a dry sunny day in August back home! On Boxing Day 2008 in Torrevieja it was 26 degrees and we spent the day on the beach!<br /><br />All of the venues, La Zenia Hotel, Polaris World, Rebate Restaurant, La Laguna Hotel, Masa Hotel and most others also have excellent winter rates and there are always a variety of great villas and apartments for rent and car hire is also cheaper. <br /><br />Just some food for thought if you are thinking of getting married in 2010 and a destination wedding is a possibility. <br /><br />Happy Christmas everyone and enjoy.<br /><br />Keith<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/756928478915393112-9135180989020955034?l=costablancaweddings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>videokeithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09396746604530099544noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-756928478915393112.post-85053948775726746862009-04-02T00:24:00.000+02:002009-07-24T00:56:16.321+02:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BSyBw5q4Fk0/SmjnZDgiwlI/AAAAAAAAAKE/5dwjJA9D0rg/s1600-h/Kelly+and+James+-+1608.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BSyBw5q4Fk0/SmjnZDgiwlI/AAAAAAAAAKE/5dwjJA9D0rg/s320/Kelly+and+James+-+1608.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361789774009123410" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BSyBw5q4Fk0/SmjkhsoLVxI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/KJbRjdAcnUA/s1600-h/Kelly+and+James+-+1556.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BSyBw5q4Fk0/SmjkhsoLVxI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/KJbRjdAcnUA/s320/Kelly+and+James+-+1556.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361786623951066898" /></a><br />Welcome to<b> </b><div><b></b><a href="http://www.photovideospain.com/"><b>Photo Video Spain</b></a><b>,</b> </div><div>one of Spain's more innovative photography and video companies based on the Costa Blanca.<div><br /></div><div>Our small professional team of photographers, multimedia artists and video guys are out and about all year round producing images and content for magazines, newspapers, websites and television stations. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>From May through October (not so much in the August heat!) we shift our focus (no pun intended) to Weddings, Blessings and Celebrations.</div><div><br /></div><div>We are based in Valencia's fifth largest and fastest growing city, <b><a href="http://www.torreviejatoday.com/">Torrevieja</a></b>, although we shoot all over the Costa Blanca, Costa Calida plus the occasional journey to the Costa del Sol, Gibraltar, Granada, Barcelona and Madrid. </div><div><br /></div><div>Unlike most, we produce both photography and video. Thus, since our teams often work together, they have a good understanding of what each-others' job is on site. We also offer the '<b>Perfect Mix'</b>, our most popular photo package with consists of two professional photographers (not just an assistant) covering your special event: one shooting the more posed 'Traditional' shots, the other gathering more relaxed, casual, photojournalistic images. Between us, we probably shoot in excess of 2,000 photos of your special day.</div><div><br /></div><div>After we have viewed and sorted your photos, we present you with a DVD containing the majority of the images shot on the day. These are called Digital Negatives. They are yours to keep, to share, to email around the world, create a digital coffee table album (or we can help create one for you) or even, god forbid, make prints! </div><div><br /></div><div>Gone are the days when photographers offered you packages of your favourite 30-photos, printed them and stuck them in album, to be stored away safely in a box for years and years, and only viewed on the odd occasion. If you wish, we can do this for you BUT, the new albums, digital printing, at great value for money, is really the way we'd suggest moving forward.</div><div><br /></div><div>On our Blog site, we shall bring you information of the weddings we have shot, links to where to view photos and maybe, if you are planning a destination wedding in Spain, we can get together for a chat and coffee, for a non-obligation chat about what you'd like for your big day. </div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks for viewing</div><div><br /></div><div>Keith and the team at <a href="http://www.photovideospain.com/">Photo Video Spain</a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/756928478915393112-8505394877572674686?l=costablancaweddings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>videokeithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09396746604530099544noreply@blogger.com0
