It's easy as well as natural to fall in love, as was and is the love story of my daughter and now, son...but falling in love with your vendors is just a heaven sent. I am sure everyone feels blessed by the experiences of their own wedding but I can attest to the natural flow and love of my kids and their videographer. As is in real life and family, things happen but it's how they cope that makes the difference. This day was such an exciting day that a lot of it was a blur, but the talent and passion of people like John bring it back to life. John stopped at nothing, from walking in the woods, hopping on their fishing boat, to capturing the elegance and sincere bliss of it all...so here's to John and the beautiful work he blesses us with...find him when you want the very best, that's what we GOT!!

ABSOLUTELY LOVE OUR HIGHLIGHT VIDEO! We just watched it and WE could not be HAPPIER! I think this was the best investment we have made as a married couple! We are truly looking forward to seeing the complete wedding film! It's completely worth the money and wait! Our wedding was in May and we recieved the video in December. We were in no rush because I wanted John's best work and creativity! Which I have to say he did more then anticipated. He's professional and very easy to work with, more importantly he knows exactly what he is doing and captured our special day Perfectly. We will cherish these memories for many years to come! I would give Five Star Productions 6 Stars if possible!

John was one of the best decisions I made regarding the documentation of my wedding. I only wish I could put more than 5 stars on this rating. He and his production company did an unbelievable job at our wedding and produced a wedding video that is beautiful and caught the day and feelings perfectly!

Thank you so much Ana! We are so glad that you enjoyed your wedding video. It always brings a smile to my face when our bride's love their video. That is why I do what I do, I love to capture memories...

John Arriola at Five Star Productions was such an amazing person to work with on our wedding day. He was very professional and extremely personable. He took special care of us in an effort to ensure that we would receive the absolute best product. On the day of the wedding he managed to get stellar footage without monoplizing the attention or interfering with the integrity of the ceremony or the reception. He made sure that we were in the forefront of the festivities while he remained in the background still managing to record all of the important highlights on our big day. I would highly recommend his services to anyone. Five Star Productions is by far the best videography business in the Rio Grande Valley.

Five Star Wedding Films filmed my wedding and the final product turned out beautifully! Our film was excellent, it feels like you're watching a real movie! Watch the highlight films, they speak for themselves in describing the quality!

Aside being able to have our wedding beautifully documented it was a great pleasure to work with John Arriola. He is kind and professional. He truly loves what he does! In our local wedding community you will not find many vendors as professional and dependable as he is.

John truly made our wedding experience fun - from the engagement session to the wedding day.

I highly recommend Five Star Wedding Films to anyone.

John Arriola with Five Star is AMAZING! He just filmed our wedding, and we had such a BLAST doing it. It really means something when you know your videographer is having a good time filming as the couple is enjoying their wedding. He truely loves what he does and it shows through the quality of work! TO have someone videotape your intimate and special moment I feel takes a special type of individual that as a customer you have to warm up to. Well it was very easy with John, because he is so nice, respectful, and truely becomes a special friend after the entire process is over. He was a professional from beginning to end! Just take a look at a few of his videos and you will see what a FANTASTIC job he is able to create. He did a wonderful job with our engagement session and I cant wait to see the bridal and wedding films!!

We love you! Valeska and Ronnie 11/20/10

Five Star Wedding Films was one of the best choices we made in our wedding! John was very accommodating from the first day we met him. He captured so many special moments throughout the wedding that we didn't even realize took place until we saw the video.

John was extremely professional and did not get in the way of the wedding process or our photography at all. We barely noticed he was there even though he captured every moment perfectly.

Our wedding film is amazing and we would definitely recommend Five Star for anyone looking for a high quality video they can cherish for years. The highlight film is really unique and a great bonus to our wedding video.

Not only is John an amazing artist, he is extremely professional and he went out of his way to get us the videos when we were unable to pick them up. The quality is fabulous and he just simply is a blessing to anyone he works with. John is without a doubt the best and most qualified person to film your wedding. Pictures are great but film truly captures the special moments that you want to remember for a lifetime. This was the wisest investment we made. I know John Arriola would be filming in Hollywood if he really wanted to! Thank you John for everything. We wish you could film all our events and we hope to work with you again soon!

What we can say about John and Five Star Productions is that the WORK speaks for itself. After viewing his wedding films, I was moved to tears: each of them so unique and so special, I knew I wanted him for my wedding instantly. We felt like we could trust him because of the quality of his work, the professionalism and expertise, and the availability at anytime of day to answer our questions. We are thrilled with what he has done so far with our engagement session, he chose the perfect song and made all members of our family cry after viewing it and thats just the ENGAGEMENT session!! We cant wait for the wedding for him to CAPTURE every special moment....

Another important note is that I was very camera shy and John made my fiance and I feel at ease, comfortable, and gave us EXPERT direction. I have lived in Dallas for 6yrs and have yet to see this type of quality work up here. It truley is a FIVE STAR production.

Val and Ronnie

John exceeded my expectation. He was professional in every aspect, did a beautiful job on both the engagement video and the wedding video, was flexible in offering us a package that met our needs. I recommend Five Star Video to anyone that wants their event documented with every detail included.
