MIAMI, July 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- From a live stream of their ceremony and dedicated social media coordinator to post real-time to drone video from unique angles and an interactive live wedding painting for a unique keepsake, new destination weddings offerings capture, share and savor special moments of the celebration at Mexico's "Beyond All-Inclusive, Beyond All Compare" Velas Resorts in Puerto Vallarta, Riviera Maya and Riviera Nayarit.
Live Streaming on the Web & Social Media
Ideal for family members and friends that are unable to attend the wedding, the resorts offer a live stream of the ceremony in addition to a personal social media concierge that will post real-time to capture the special moments a couple says I do. For up to one hour and 2,000 simultaneous viewers, the live stream is aired on the web via a personalized landing page. Additionally, the couple will receive an exclusive hashtag and personal social media concierge for the wedding that will automatically post images to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram throughout the ceremony. Afterwards, the concierge will compile a Pinterest board with all of the images for the couple to enjoy and share.
Drone Video from Unique Heights & Angles
To uniquely capture wedding celebrations as forever mementos, the resorts offer drone filming and live wedding paintings, a tradition of European aristocracy for more than three centuries. Taking wedding photos and videos to new heights, drones capture destination wedding celebrations at the resorts from unique heights and angles. The service includes a crew of five to film and three cameras providing up to ten hours of recording. The final five-minute edited video will be delivered within one month of the ceremony, as well as a download link with the final video, aerial and ground images in full HD video.
Live Wedding Painting to Capturing Time-honored Details & Emotions
Through an exclusive partnership with Antología by Fornari, Casa Velas and Velas Vallarta join its sister properties Grand Velas Riviera Maya and Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, which launched the service earlier this year, in offering couples live wedding painting. The painting acts as a performance show while capturing time-honored details and emotions – the very essence of the occasion – on a fine canvas for a high-quality piece of art to last beyond a lifetime. In addition to selecting the preferred canvas shape and size, and either oil or acrylic paint, couples then select an artist from a specific style, including impressionist or expressionist and abstract or surrealist. Prior to the wedding, couples meet with their artist to determine who and what to include in their painting. During the event, the artist begins by painting the basic elements of the scene and continues by capturing wedding moments and attendees in natural positions as they unfold.
All services are available at Mexico's four Velas Resorts – Casa Velas, Grand Velas Riviera Maya, Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, and Velas Vallarta. Pricing starts at $1,100 for the live streaming, $2,404 for the drone filming and $3,000 for the live wedding painting.
