Chris is highly recommended for anyone who wants to have a quality videography service without spending a fortune. He captures your wedding day details in a very unobtrusive manner and creates such a beautiful story, which will be your lifetime treasure. And on top of that, he is a genuinely nice, sincere, highly-educated, and trustworthy person. As a coordinator, I need to be cautious which vendor I recommend to my clients, but I can be confident in recommending him to all of my clients.

Chris and his team was nothing short of amazing. The footage came out beautifully and they were flexible enough to accommodate last minute changes. They were friendly, fun, and easy to work with. I definitely recommend Chris for your special day.

When I began making wedding arrangements I was not planning on having a videographer. However, since we were planning a destination wedding, we knew many of our friends and family would not be able to attend. After doing some searching, I found Christopher on the knot.com. I explained to him exactly what I wanted, which was a real-time shoot of our wedding ceremony. I wanted something we could share with our loved ones to make them feel as though they were there with us. Other videographers I spoke with did not offer such packages, however, Christopher made it happen and worked within our budget. He was very responsive and patient (I emailed him a number of times prior to the ceremony). When we met, it was like I had known him forever. He was so kind and easy going. It was truly a pleasure to work with him. He went above and beyond what was requested of him and captured moments from our reception dinner after the ceremony, which he included in a short highlight video for us. He began editing our footage immediately and sent us our video within a few days. It was amazing!!! I couldn't have asked for a better person to capture our special day!

Traveling to Hawaii from Georgia for my wedding was an amazing experience however, planning a wedding from 6 times zones away had its challenges. I can honestly say Christopher made the process very easy when it came to recording our ceremony for friends and family that could not make the trip! He responded super quick and was really fun to work with. After hearing that our reception dinner was at the Moana Surfrider hotel, he volunteered to come take some video clips of the reception for a highlight video that turned out incredible and captured great memories of the best day of my life! Choosing Christopher proved to be a great decision and I would highly recommend him to other looking for a professional videographer to capture their special event!!

Brides seriously....look no further! I hired Chris to be my videographer for my wedding in the North Shore of Oahu this past September and lets just say, if I could give him 1000 stars, I most definitely would! I'm from California, so planning my destination wedding all on my own was nerve wrecking to say the least. But Chris was definitely one of my favorite vendors. He was very quick to respond to all my emails/text messages, he's patient, and made me feel at ease during all the wedding craziness, just by reassuring me throughout the day that everything was perfect ;) He arrived promptly at 10am, just as I requested, and stayed pretty much for the entire wedding. His rate is very reasonable especially considering the fact that he doesn't charge per hour or per 6 hours like many of the vendors I've came across, which was definitely a plus! I actually received my highlight video the other day online and it is PERFECT! I was in tears when I saw it. It felt as if I was reliving that special day all over again. I can't express how lucky & blessed I was to find such an amazing, kind, patient, and talented videographer like Chris! Thank you for capturing the best day of my life, with such perfection!

Chris was both professional and easy going. All of our communications were done via email since I live in California. Having a destination wedding and finding the right vendors is hard but I'm glad I went with Chris and his crew. His responses were quick and he ensured me that he has everything I need to capture my wedding day. He was familiar with the location of our wedding and it shows in the video. I would recommend getting a videographer since everything happens so fast during the day of the wedding. It is difficult to take everything all in. With a great videography like Chris, you are able to relive all the wonderful moments that you might have missed during your big day. I am thankful and very appreciative of all the beautiful moments that Chris had captured during my big day.

I really enjoyed working with Chris. Firstly, he's an extremely calm and cool/collected person. I chose Chris initially due to his Wedding Wire reviews and I looked at his website and liked his aesthetic (romantic). I felt he edited his videos with a great storyline and none of his videos were cheesy (which is hard to do with wedding videos). My favorite thing about Chris was that he was so helpful with the types of shots he knows will look good- so he gave great direction for all the shots, telling me what to do with my hands, etc. He also gave a complimentary engagement video-shoot which worked really well with our highlight video. I looked at 20 different videographers in the Oahu area before I chose Chris. The videographers I liked with a similar aesthetic to Chris’ style were all over $5k (way over our budget). I thought Chris’s price was extremely fair and a great value considering his work is at par if not better than some other more expensive studios. I thought Chris was very accommodating to my schedule (I live in NYC so the time difference was tricky but he made it work). He also assuaged my concerns given I chose all my vendors based on phone conversations I had with them (since I was planning a wedding in Honolulu from NYC). We had great communication throughout the whole thing- he made sure we were both on the same page with what he'll shoot and made sure I was happy with everything before being done. He also stayed an extra few hours beyond what we agreed so he could get all the shots he needed. I liked that because the other studios I contacted had a hard 4 hour limit to shoot. He was also excellent in his turnaround time. I was surprised how quickly we received the highlight video. Overall, I would recommend Chris for any wedding large or small. We had 70 guests at our wedding and he brought his equipment and was able to capture all the important events of our wedding (and more). Great person. Great service!

Christopher was no ka oi/indeed the best. My husband and I consider ourselves very lucky to have been able to work with Chris. He instantly put us at ease and we felt so comfortable with him. He was very cool, calm and easygoing on our special day. It was nice to have found someone so professional and dependable. While watching our wedding ceremony video along with the moving stills, it evoked an intimate feeling and gave a sense of being part of the celebration on the beach. Chris understood our vision from the start and he added unique touches to every angle. Our wedding video was beautifully shot and I am just so pleased by the moments that were captured.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I had the pleasure of working with Christopher on a multi-location wedding. The bridal party got ready at one location, the ceremony was held at Secret Island, and the reception was held at He'eia State Park. Christopher was able to film the detail shots, getting ready shots, first look, ceremony, reception, and testimonials beautifully. He was overly prepared ( a great thing for a Wedding Coordinator to see!) and early to arrive. He was the PERFECT vendor! Very easy to work with, prompt, on schedule, and provided a beautifully edited video. I would definitely recommend Christopher Coats Video!
