Dear Nephilaine,

I am using this forum to hopefully receive a reply to my question, “Where is my wedding video?” My understanding is that you have already been paid by Spellbound Events to provide a video of my wedding that took place in April. On repeated occasions, stamphady and I have tried to contact you without a response. We have asked Baccara Rhodes to intervene on several occasions as well. As far as I know, you have not responded to her either. Why? We are both patient and understanding people. If there is a problem, we would be glad to do what we are able to work it out.

Our SL wedding in April was a prelude to our RL wedding in June. Although this is a game, it is where stamp & I first got to know each other. Our SL pictures and memorabilia are as much a part of our early history as our RL memories. I am in the process of compiling our wedding albums and I am very sad that something important to both of us may have been lost. Can you please shed some light on this?

Sincerely,

Faerie Muse

Faerie,
I have exeperienced some serious restraints in spare time to work on it. I have spoken with stamp about it, allbeit not recently as I have just returned from being out of town.
As for being paid for the video, no I was not. I left it with Bacarra that although i would attempt to do this for her as a personal favor, as I was EXTREMELY low of spare time to work on these things I did not feel right accepting payment for it.
Baccara has not contacted me about this for quite some time.

As it stands, the progress on the video-
It is partially done, and has hung in limbo due to lack of time to work on it. If you want the video clips to include in your wedding memorabilia, then I will happily turn them over however we can manage to accomplish that. But as for the finished product of the video, I am sorry you were given the impression it was being paid for, as I specifically
declined money for it on several occasions, becuase I knew that delays like this were a possibility.
Just to correct the impression that I have been paid for doing this project- I have not. I did not accept payment for the project because I was not certain of my ability to commit to it, or to future projects like it.
If that was not communicated to you, I am sorry.

I respect that you want these SL memories to be part of your RL collection- that is commendable and charming, and one more part of a very sweet story. The clips themselves are useable and fine, I just am completely and utterly without ANY spare time to touch them. I wish I could say when this trend will reverse, but I have no way of knowing.
I work from home on a freelance basis, so when a busy few working months come around, it tends to interrupt all previously planned engagements.

Anyway, if you want the video clips as they exist now, I will attempt to make arrangements to get them to you.

Well, obviously a misunderstanding has occurred. More than anything, I would love to have our video. Had stamp & I known the circumstances, we would have been glad to make other arrangements. I'm very saddened by the lost opportunity. Thank you for your reply.
