Dual Platform Wedding Stream

A story about how Dan and Jen Willson set up the technology for their virtual wedding ceremony.
"We did FaceTime with our friend who was marrying us - he was in Jacksonville, so we had one screen used for FaceTime. Then we had the computer which we used for Facebook. We actually did a trial run a couple days before.
We had to figure out where we could get WiFi in the neighborhood and have a backdrop that looked somewhat nice for the ceremony. We also had to consider the time of day because it's Florida and already pretty hot, so we scheduled it for 11am.
We did a pre-production check on the technology just to see if it would work. It looked like we had pretty good WiFi, so we crossed our fingers and hoped it would stand up. And it seemed to work!"
