Amazing from Start to Finish - Great Communication, Professional, Amazing Videos and Editing
You will not regret paying for wedding videos!
I also really appreciated that they created a short video we could post on Instagram. One thing to note: they don’t have access to many well-known songs for use in the videos, so if you’re set on very specific music choices, that’s something to keep in mind. We were able to find something that worked well, but I wanted to mention it just in case it matters to someone else.
They captured our day so beautifully, and we’ll truly cherish these videos forever. They honored our request to be more like ‘flies on the wall’ the day of — they were professional, unobtrusive, and we barely noticed they were there while they still got incredible footage.
We’re so grateful to have all of these moments preserved, and we would 100% recommend choosing Smiling Toad to capture your wedding day!
Wonderful experience!
Highly recommended by both my sister & I!
