At the beginning of wedding planning, my husband and I discussed hiring a videographer. I thought…read morevideographers only provided you with long videos of your wedding day that you would watch maybe one time and then likely never watch again. We decided that this was an expense that we would forego for our wedding. However, a couple of months into wedding planning, my sister introduced me to the idea of wedding highlight videos. I fell in love with the concept - a short 5 minute video, easily shareable, that captures the feel of your day. After watching some of these videos, I obsessed with the idea of hiring a videographer. But my husband was still not overly impressed - he doesn't like to see himself on video. Plus, we had heard horror stories from a friend whose sister's videographer was all up in their business all day and made people pose for an overly refined wedding video that didn't capture the feel of their day at all. So as the months of wedding planning went by, I continued to watch strangers' highlight videos and cry at the beautiful films. I wanted to hire a videographer so badly, but I didn't think we could fit this into our budget. About a month before our wedding, I searched online and found the site Thumbtack. I had never heard of this site before, but it lets you customize a request for professionals of all sorts, and then the pros will get back to you with a quote based upon your request. I submitted a request for a wedding videographer on a whim, and that's how I found Films by Andy! I watched a few of Andy's highlight videos online, and they seemed to be just what I was looking for, and Andy's quote was less than half the cost of the other pros I got quotes from! I quickly set up a time to meet with Andy, deciding that I would pay for the videographer myself, I wanted one so badly, and Andy's prices made that possible. My husband and I met with Andy, and he was so incredibly friendly. We decided to hire Andy for our big day, and I am so happy we did! On the day of the wedding, Andy arrived right on time, and he was so unobtrusive that I barely noticed him there. He was also so nice that my father made it a point to tell me how friendly Andy was. At one point immediately following the ceremony Andy told me he was capturing some really great footage. He seemed so excited, it was so nice to see him genuinely care about the work he was doing. Andy provided us with an amazing highlight reel only 2 weeks after our wedding! The video is everything I could have hoped for and more. It incorporates scenes from our whole day - getting ready, our first look, family portraits, our ceremony, and the reception. He worked with the DJ so that he could pipe into the audio so that you can hear part of our vows. And he used our first dance song in the video for a special added touch. I cannot express to you how much I love this video. I have watched it over and over again, and it still brings tears to my eyes. My husband, who was so conflicted about hiring a videographer, loves it as well! He even tells me about how he watches it while at work, so not only just when I make him watch it! I also asked Andy to capture as much as he could of special moments throughout the day - as much as he could of the ceremony, our first dance, the toasts. Even as a single shooter, Andy was able to capture all of these special moments. We now have the entire ceremony to watch whenever we would like! He even captured some unexpected special moments as well, like the first look and the cake cutting. And we are able to share these special moments with our friends/family who were not able to make it! They are so great! I am so happy with my decision to hire Andy as our videographer. He was such a pleasure to work with. One of my friends has already hired him after seeing our highlight reel, that's just how good he is! Thank you Andy for doing such an amazing job!

At the time I wasn't planning on hiring a videographer since we were paying so much for our photographer I figured why bother. But when I saw my friend's video I knew I had to hire Andy. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I was instantly obsessed and sent the video to my friends and family, most of whom did not know my friend. Everyone was in tears and in agreement about how wonderful the video was. Also, I was at my friend's wedding and i never once noticed the videographer. He just blended right in! There was a shot in her video of me doing her bustle and I never even knew that was being filmed. I contacted Andy the same night as I saw my friend's video. He is so super friendly and responsive. He was very accommodating to us since we were so busy with wedding planning. We met via Facetime since we were too busy to meet in person. He went over what we wanted in detail. I was never once worried that anything would go wrong with Andy. I got my video about a month after my wedding and it was worth the time and the money. It was even more amazing than I thought it would be. Everyone who has seen it is impressed with how artistically done it is. I could not be happier. Andy is a great guy and an extremely talented videographer. He posts his videos on his FB page so check them out if you are thinking of hiring him. I could not be happier with how everything turned out.

The booth is just a lot of fun! Allison designed a beautiful and personalized template for the photo strips that complimented our reception palette. The crew came nice and early to set up and were super flexible in where to physically mount the backdrop and booth, which was great for our cocktail hour in a setting with limited space. The team was kind, friendly, and professional. The booth itself is so easy to use and the guests especially loved the SMS text feature which allowed them to not only print the photos on the strip to take home, but to immediately post to Instagram from their cell phones.
