My husband and I planned our elopement to Hawaii in a month and a half, and we knew we wanted to share moments of our special and secret day with everyone when we returned home to Chicago. No question, it was important for us to hire a videographer. As any couple planning a destination wedding knows, long distance shopping for credible and affordable wedding vendors is not an easy task. We realized our chances of finding a talented and honest videographer in very little time was slim. I spent a lot of time online on Yelp, wedding sites, blogs, and Craigslist for leads. My search paid off when I stumbled on the website www.redringstudio.com, and fell in love with the editing style of a same day edit wedding video featured on the site.
I emailed, and promptly received a response from Glenn. In a few hours we were talking on the phone. I shared my wedding vision, and he talked style. We were on the same page, thousands of miles apart. It was such a relief to make a real, human connection after endless online searching for the right videographer.
At the time of our booking, Red Ring Studio was a young company with budding talent, eager to put their skills to life. I knew that I could be taking a risk by working with a less established company, but Glenn's honesty, professionalism and overall vibe put me at ease.
On our wedding day, he arrived early with an entire crew to start shooting the morning prep. His entire crew was professional and fun, and blended in naturally to the flurry of activity on our wedding morning.
It rained during our wedding ceremony. Not a soft, aloha sun shower -- it was a straight-up down pour of rain! The elements didn't put a damper on our ceremony - or our highlight video! I figured that we would lose a lot of footage due to the rain, but Red Ring Studio captured more than I ever expected. The rain complimented the amount of love and emotion we shared on the peninsula of Kahala Beach, and because of Red Ring Studio we can press "play" to relive those moments. We will play the highlight video for all our family and friends at our Chicago reception in November. There will not be a dry eye in the room, that's for sure.
Looking forward to receiving the full DVD!
P.S. This is my first yelp review. I don't normally write reviews, but the guys at Red Ring Studio deserve the accolades. Red Ring Studio is seriously about to blow up! Book them while you can. We're very happy to have worked with them for our destination wedding. read more
