Julius Neubronner (1852-1932), a chemist and inventor from Kronberg was one of the first people to film in the Rhine-Main region. In 1903 he acquired his first film camera, an Ernemann "Kino" for 17.5mm film with center perforation. With his camera Neubronner recorded historical events as well as the everyday life of his family. Furthermore, he also shot short sketches performed by himself and his family on a stage set-up in the garden of their home. "Wedding in Kronberg II" shows a couple entering the Johanniskirche in Kronberg for the wedding ceremony and shortly afterwards stepping out onto the forecourt, where a group of children is already waiting. They briefly pose for the camera before the remaining wedding guests leave the church.
