What is Blu-ray Disc and how will it affect the wedding industry?

   Blu-ray, also known as Blu-ray Disc (BD) is the name of a next-generation optical disc format. The name Blu-ray is derived from the underlying technology, which utilizes a blue-violet laser to read and write data. The name is a combination of "Blue" (blue-violet laser) and "Ray" (optical ray).

   The vast majority of today’s brides own or will soon own Wide-Screen High Definition Televisions and they expect their Wedding Videos and Photography Montages to fill their wide screens plus look and sound as good as the programming they see on network Bridal shows.

Will Blu-ray really replace Standard Definition DVDs?

   Yes. Just like CDs have replaced vinyl records, the wide acceptance of High Definition Wide Screen TVs combined with High Definition Blu-ray Disc, will in the immediate future, make Standard Definition Wedding Videos and Photography Montages obsolete.

  The Blu-ray Disc Association has made an official statement regarding Toshiba's recent announcement that they would no longer be supporting the competing HD DVD format. Blu-ray is the winner.
   In fact, all seven of the seven major movie studios (Disney, Fox, Warner, Paramount, Sony, Lionsgate and MGM) have released titles in the Blu-ray format. Many studios have also announced that they will begin releasing new feature films on Blu-ray Disc day-and-date with DVD, as well as a continuous slate of catalog titles every month.

   Net-Flix and Blockbuster both support Blu-ray.

Why will brides upgrade from standard DVD to Blu-ray Disc?

   The simple answer is HDTV. If you've ever seen high-definition (HD) Video or Photography Montages on an HDTV, then you know just how incredibly sharp the picture is and how vivid the colors are. In fact, HD widescreen offers five times the amount of detail compared to standard-definition (SD). The problem with today's DVDs is that they only support SD standard screens. That's where Blu-ray comes in…professional looking HD wedding videos and crystal clear High Definition Photography Montages.

Can your vendors provide the services that brides want?

   As you know, today's destination couples are savvy and require the same type of excellent services in the Florida Keys that they and their friends receive back home. In order to satisfy their requests for high quality services, vendors must be equally savvy to global trends in style and also commit both financially and professionally to tomorrows technology.
