The Travel Wedding Booking Program within ROAM ensures that you will not only learn how to find and book travel weddings twice a month, but also secure them as bookings.

Gain Access to ROAM's exclusive in-person workshops. From the mountains of Colorado last year, to the Oregon Coast this August, these retreats are meant to push you creatively, inspire your filmmaking, and motivate your soul as a videographer.
Join Stanton for an elopement in Iceland and a full breakdown of a real-life four-day destination wedding in Tulum. Dive into hours of educational content as you witness every shot captured from both a BTS angle and on Stanton's camera.

I can't thank you enough for ROAM. It's the biggest reason why my Lake Como film is what it is and because she saw it she completely was in awe and imagined her film the same if not better.
Beyond grateful for your friendship and mentorship in ROAM. Thank you. Thank you.
