Beautiful Wedding Video!

Sweet Start did a fantastic job capturing our wedding. They were easy to work with and produced a fantastic video that caught all of the special moments we were looking for. The final video is beautiful, something we'll hold onto for years to come!

Wonderful Memories to Keep Forever

Working with Shawn and Alex from Sweet Start was wonderful. Your videographers are around you the whole wedding day, so it was nice for us that we clicked with them immediately. They are so nice! We got a video made, plus footage of our ceremony and the wedding speeches. They did a beautiful job telling our wedding story. They captured every detail from the cake cutting, to our wedding dances, to everyone dancing away in the perfect 9 minute video that made me cry. We honestly could not have asked for a better outcome. Thanks so much!

Dynamic duo of amazing videographers!!!

The thought and caring that goes into each couple and each wedding Sweetstart takes care of is unparalleled.
They work seamlessly with other vendors in the best interests of the couple to make sure the experience the couple gets is top notch.
I always enjoy teaming up with them, and all future brides to be are in safe and talented hands.

Above and beyond

Alex and Shawn are definitely in the right business.
We were having a micro wedding of only 14 people but we wanted to remember our big moments. They were able to accommodate some or special requests logistically and financially. From the first email I sent, they were responsive, professional and engaged. They were extremely easy to plan and coordinate with prior to the big day. They went above and beyond what we could’ve hoped for. Now we are able to relive and enjoy the moments of our special day forever. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone going to capture their special day. Thank you a million times over!

Sweet start is outstanding

Sweet Start did an amazing job of filming my daughter's wedding. Shawn and Alessandra were accommodating, considerate, and professional. The video product exceeded our expectations. The film captured the most wonderful moments of the day and captured the feelings we hoped it would. The video was beautiful, loving, and heartwarming -- a wonderful memory! I highly recommend Sweet Start.

Watching my highlight film brings back all the wedding day butterflies!!!

We used Sweet Start for our wedding at Jasna Polana and I am SO happy we did. Originally my husband and I were on the fence about videography, but it was the BEST decision we made! It is so surreal being able to relive our wedding day through our highlight film. Alex + Shawn did such a great job capturing the emotion felt on our day... watching it brings back all the butterflies! In addition, Alex + Shawn made being on camera fun and natural. I truly enjoyed working with them and will forever be grateful for their amazing work!!

Wonderful experience and product!

Alex & Sean were true professionals throughout our wedding planning process and could not have done a better job with our wedding film! Many of our friends were so impressed with their work that they hired them for their own subsequent weddings as well. We watch the film every anniversary and with each passing year, feel more and more grateful for the decision to capture the day in this way. It has also been extremely heartwarming to see the faces of those whom our family has lost in the past few years as well. A true gift and one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day by far! You will not be disappointed!

The perfect videographers!

I have SO many good things to say about Alex and Shawn of Sweet Start! We used them for our wedding at the Barn on Bridge in Collegeville, PA. First of all, they were SO nice!!! They came out to our venue to meet us/get to know us before our wedding which made us so comfortable with them and let us know how much they truly cared about capturing our love story. When it came to the big day, they were just amazing. They were there exactly when we needed them, but most of the time we didn’t even know they were there! They were extremely professional, and the final product that we got from them brought us to tears. The quality of the film is UNMATCHED! They captured our love story so perfectly, and somehow knew the perfect songs to pick for the film to match our personalities. If you’re on the fence about a videographer for your wedding, look no further!!! Alex and Shawn of Sweet Start are everything you could want and more. Side note - it’s been over a year since our wedding, and they still keep in touch with us! With Alex and Shawn you don’t just get videographers - you get friends for life that are truly invested in your love story!

Memories for a Lifetime!

Shawn and Alex are the sweetest and most talented couple I know. When we watched our wedding film, I cried and then watched it again. It was so beautiful! We weren't totally convinced that cinema was worth it, but it was worth every penny. We can't wait to show our kids one day! Thank you!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Shawn and Alex are great! As a wedding photographer, they were the first video team I've worked with so far. I'll admit, I was a little hesitant at first, but I quickly learned that teaming up with them and working together was a great energy! On your wedding day, it's paramount that your vendors work together. I highly recommend Sweet Start Weddings!

Shawn + Alex: a match made in cinematography heaven! Working with this super couple on your wedding will be the best decision you ever make. Their love for each other shines, but even more, their passion for their work is filled with every word they speak and every ounce of film recorded. Shawn is pure and raw talent behind the camera. He was born to do this. Alex is pure joy as his side kick. The films they produce are not only creative but will also capture every loving moment of your day. They take your vision, sprinkle some cinema fairy dust and make it into a fantasy wedding come true. I love working with Alex + Shawn and can't wait for the next project! You will not regret hiring them on your wedding day.
