They call Eureka Springs the Wedding Capital of the South for a reason. A Victorian village tucked into the Ozark mountains, home to Thorncrown Chapel — the glass-and-wood masterpiece that may be the most beautiful wedding chapel in America — and the historic 1886 Crescent Hotel. Couples travel from every state to marry here, and every wedding feels like a destination film.
I'm Minh Pham, a wedding videographer with deep Arkansas roots. I've filmed across the Ozarks for years, and Eureka Springs holds a special kind of magic: morning fog in the hollows, light pouring through Thorncrown's 425 windows, sparkler exits down Spring Street.
Whether you're planning an intimate chapel elopement or a full weekend at the Crescent, I'll craft a film that carries the feeling of this town — romantic, timeless, and a little bit enchanted.
Eureka Springs weddings are often intimate — a chapel ceremony, a small dinner, a couple stealing away for portraits in the hills. Small weddings deserve cinematic films too, and they're some of my favorite work: less schedule, more feeling. I know the chapel timing rules, the best golden hour overlooks, and how to film a 20-person wedding so it feels as grand as 200.
Yes — Thorncrown is one of the most extraordinary places in the country to film. The chapel has specific vendor guidelines and time windows, and I know how to work within them while capturing every moment.
Elopement films start at $2,500 and full wedding packages at $2,700. Most Eureka Springs couples choose 4–6 hours of coverage for a chapel ceremony plus portraits around town and the overlooks.
Yes — Eureka Springs is part of my regular Arkansas service area, an easy drive from Northwest Arkansas. No complicated travel logistics; just reach out with your date.
I live in Vacaville, California — in Solano County between Napa Valley and Sacramento — and film weddings across Northern California and Arkansas.
Per my contract, wedding and elopement films are delivered within 6-8 weeks, and I share sneak peeks along the way.
I limit bookings to 20-25 weddings a year and often book 1-2 years out — popular fall and late-spring Saturdays go first. If your date is closer than that, reach out anyway; openings do come up.
