I could have gone anywhere for our daughter's wedding but chose this company as they did my wedding long time ago. I actually have been referring them to our clients but just never really reached out to them that I'm doing that as I'm busy with my own business. I can't tell you how professional and what gorgeous quality items we rented for our daughter's wedding in Victoria in The Park on Nov 15,2025. We rented Chargers, Black Cushions/Linens and napkins. All top quality and ever so gorgeous and I think the price was reasonable. They also provided out of this world customer service and even helped me when I thought I forgot to order the dj linen and of course I prematurely panicked as it ended up that the dj brought his own booth. They handled it likes pros and sent a person with the additional linen. If you want the best quality go to Covered Affair!!!! I understand color selection and complimenting colors but this was personal to me and I was questioning myself at times they reassured my decision about color was on point. I can not say good enough things about this company. Don't forget a very important part, your not just renting linen etc it's part of the visual story your are portraying at your wedding. As the color of the linen/charger/napkin should all complement and work together in a seamless line with your flowers and overall design esthetics to create a desired overall feeling.

Well this is definitely one of those times where I was more than pleasantly surprised, I was ecstatic about the way it had turned out! They really took their time to ensure that the feel and the movement of the video matched the types of songs and preserved the "feel" of our wedding day. If I could only have either a photographer or a videographer, without a doubt I would pick the videographer. Everyone has complimented us so much because of our wedding video, and looking back I would have regretted it if we had not opted to have a videographer record it. The people there are friendly and professional. I didn't run into any issues with them at all when asking all the questions i had asked, followed by even more questions..... Some people may say, "Oh just have a friend record it......" My advise would be Absolutely Do Not have a friend record it! It was worth every penny, even more than our wedding photographers (although he is good, one photographer is not enough) We may not even need a wedding album now, because we have such an amazing wedding video! All thanks to Mike and Keith J. at Poetic Productions!

If you are considering whether or not to hire a videographer for your wedding, the decision is…read moreeasy... I would wholeheartedly recommend (1) having a videographer, and (2) hiring Keith from Poetic Productions. There are certain things that photography just can capture--the emotion in my father's voice during his toast, my husband rubbing my hands as we're saying our vows, and the raw emotion when reading the card that my husband wrote me before we headed to the church. In researching videographers, I came across really cheesy/poorly done work (but cheap) and high-tech/movie-quality/EXPENSIVE options. Keith strikes the right balance in that his work is very professional, artistic and emotional, while also being very affordable. If you can afford it, I would recommend getting a second shooter for at least part of your wedding--the second shooter can capture the bride walking down the aisle AND the groom's reaction, the best man giving his speech AND the bride and groom's reactions, etc. My husband and I could not have been happier with our wedding video from Keith--check it out here if you're interested: http://poeticweddings.com/events/allison-and-matthew.html. Pretty great, in my unbiased opinion! :) In short, I'd HIGHLY recommend Keith from Poetic Productions. The video was absolutely beautiful and worth every penny!

The music with the video matched perfectly. My wife and I were very pleased. She is a tough critic too. My sister was the wedding planner and Jimmy had great communication with her. I did a lot of research before choosing my videographer and happy i ended up with Shot Time. Jimmy's pricing was reasonable and he is very professional The only thing is i wish i used Jimmy for my other event as well. Being a Indian/Pakistani wedding we have multiple events. I ended up using another company for my second event. Though the end product was good as well, getting to that was little more difficult than working with Jimmy

The first thing myself and others noticed was that Jimmy put a great amount of time into planning for our event, even though the video was going to be quite short. It was great to communicate with the Shot Time team frequently during the planning phase- it was apparent that they strive to create exactly what a customer is hoping for. Arriving early (in sub-zero temperature), the crew was clearly a group of professionals- making last minute adjustments, advising about camera angles/room lighting, and other aspects that we did not realize could affect the video. Everyone was impressed by the professionalism of the team and the quality of the video equipment. The event was a great success, and the final cut of the video that Shot Time created was fantastic. Working with these professionals was a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone.

Then one of my friends posted their own highlight video online and I knew I had to have that and I would have regretted not having the ability to see those moments again. One of my friends who was also getting married was researching videographers and thought I would like film fidele. I decided I would meet with them and get some prices and see if I could fit it in my budget. From our first meeting I was totally smitten with Sarah & Kurt. I felt they totally got my wedding vision. I wanted fun, unique and memorable. I felt the prices were reasonable and I liked that they offered different packages. Sarah & Kurt were a joy to work with, very friendly and professional. To tell you the truth on our wedding day I barely noticed them, but from seeing the footage they got every moment. After the wedding many of the guests kept talking about how awesome Kurt & Sarah were and how they couldn't wait to see the final video. After watching the final edited footage, we were amazed at how perfect it was. They captured our day even better then I could have hoped for. I left the music choices up to them, and there is no way anyone could have picked better music that fit us and our wedding day. I really can't say enough good things about them, I think all in all if you're on the fence about getting video, just do it! You'll be so happy and excited when you get to relive that day that went by way too fast. I highly recommend film fidele, definitely one of the best wedding vendors we had!

I am so glad I bookmarked their details that day - not only were Payal and Abhishek an absolutely pleasure to work with during our wedding events, their quality of work and professionalism went beyond my expectations. Because I was living out of state and wasn't going to be in town until a few days before my wedding, Payal and Abhi met with me multiple times over Skype to make sure they understood how our wedding ceremony would take place, ask questions about my expectations and vision, as well as get to know my husband and I better. On the wedding day, they were punctual and made both my husband and I comfortable during our shoot, despite us both being awkward turtles. They dealt with our large families (especially the self-appointed photographers) respectfully and managed to capture everyone's happiness so beautifully in their photos. I was very grateful of how respectful they were of our cultural/religions traditions throughout the entire process. After the wedding, they continued to communicate with us and delivered the photos and final album in a reasonable timeframe. We love our wedding photos so much that we're already thinking about doing an "anniversary" shoot with them! If you're looking for Chicagoland photographers who will capture all the happiness and emotions of your special day, I highly recommend Bokeh Studios!

They were on time, polite, and very creative in their shots. We had two photographers, so we were able to capture a lot of in-the-moment images and the traditional portrait pictures I really wanted.

Wrangling family members isn't easy, but they never lost their cool diminior or got pushy with us. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. http://www.iambokeh.com/oak-park-wedding-at-cheney-mansion-casey-constance/?utm_content=buffer27342&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer

From start to finish, they were organized, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. Communication leading up to the big day was smooth and reassuring -- every question was answered quickly, every detail was thought through, and they made the entire experience feel effortless. On the wedding day, the team showed up ready to go and immediately put us at ease. They were warm, friendly, and knew exactly how to guide us without ever making anything feel posed or forced. They captured everything -- the big emotional moments, the tiny in-between ones, and all the energy in the room -- without ever feeling intrusive. Their balance of directing when needed and letting moments naturally unfold was spot-on. The photos and videos themselves are stunning. They somehow managed to bottle up the joy, energy, and emotion of the day in a way we'll treasure forever. The edits are clean, timeless, and beautifully done, and the video footage feels like a true story rather than a montage. They also provided multiple formats and options, which we really appreciated.  Our families and friends haven't stopped talking about how talented the team was -- and we couldn't agree more. If you're looking for a photographer and videographer who are professional, creative, and genuinely invested in making your wedding memories perfect, we couldn't recommend This is Feeling more highly.

Or maybe you don't even believe in love so you're like "who knows how long this marriage will last so let's just get any photographer that shows up in our google search". Maybe you're just boring people so you don't really care so the same standard boring wedding pics are fine for you. So sad. But if you really want something good, like REALLY good, I'm sayin stand out good, creative but not nebulous/pretentious like some hipster crap, but unique still refined, quality expressive of who YOU are as a couple.... you go with This Is Feeling. No question. Unparalleled. In all seriousness we planned and hired well (as much as is possible for businesses you have to hope that deliver on what they say for a hopefully one time event) and out of the dozen whatever venders, This is Feeling was like one of two that actually cared and got everything right. Most of these vendors are just tryin to make easy money with all this wedding markup market stuff. They don't care about your one wedding of hundreds they do. This is Feeling does care though. They're proud of their work and excellent at it. You can hire them, rest easy, and focus on worrying about the other stuff.

They helped us decide on the best locations around the city to take pictures and they directed us through the entire process, which was extremely helpful since neither of us had done a professional photo shoot before. They got a lot of great shots of the venue and the decorations and took a lot of wonderful pictures during the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing. Every time I was with a friend or new group of people, it seemed that one of the photographers was there to capture the moment. I really appreciated how proactive they were, but they were also open to us asking them to take whatever pictures we wanted. They sent us the link to our pictures just a couple days after our wedding, which was very exciting! We loved how the pictures turned out. As I told Steve...I don't know how they did it, but they made us look good. :) They were both wonderful to work with, and we would highly recommend them!
