We hired Custom Video Weddings Productions to film our wedding in August 2005. To be honest, neither my wife nor I were particularly well-informed about what to look for in a videographer and we stumbled through a number of interviews without any clear criteria. We ultimately chose Custom Video Weddings Productions based on a gut feeling that we had after our meeting with Michele and are very happy that we did. Key strengths of Custom Video were:
Relentless focus on the customer - starting at our initial meeting with Michele through final editing, the CVW team was always attuned to making sure that we were getting what we wanted. Whether it was their formal survey that each couple needs to fill out or their checklist of key people who we wanted to have covered during the ceremony, we always felt that the team would deliver what we wanted. Little did we know that the final product would surpass our expectations to the extent that it did.
Professional videographers - the CVW videographers were a true asset during the wedding. They were early and helped coordinate our photographers while both parties were getting ready and stayed throughout the end of the wedding. During the editing process, I saw a great deal of the footage that they shot, they didn't miss a minute
Final Work product - it all comes down to the final product and CVW did not disappoint. We spent a tremendous amount of time with them during final editing and really relied on their judgment. The end result is a product that serves as a wonderful remembrance of our wedding day.
In summary, CVW exceeded our expectations on all levels. Based on quotes that I received from other videographers (some of whom shot wedding videos on a part-time basis) Custom Video Weddings was not the cheapest, however, in this case the premium was certainly justified. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to have their wedding videotaped. read more
