Best decision hands down

Hiring Joe as our videographer was the BEST decision we made during our wedding planning process. At first, we debated even getting a videographer because of the cost. Then came the arduous task of deciding which company to go with. We couldn't be happier that we chose Wedding Tales; they are worth every penny! So many things went wrong on our wedding day that I was nervous to even watch our videos. The highlight reel Joe made was so beautifully done though, you couldn't even tell what a crummy day it was & I finally cried happy tears while watching it! His attention to detail is amazing; he was quick to respond to my emails throughout the entire process & finished our videos a month early; he's professional, punctual, & even stuck around late when we were running behind schedule for the bouquet/garter toss. I honestly can't say enough good things about him... Do yourself a favor & mark this off your list of vendors to find!! If I could do it over, I would choose their video/photo bundle deal because I imagine him & his wife together would literally be the best duo ever!

Amazing product and customer service

First off, I cannot thank Wedding Tales enough for capturing our wedding so perfectly and bringing me to happy tears every time I watch my highlight video or the full wedding video. The actual wedding day goes by so fast and I am SO thankful Wedding Tales was there to capture every little moment. I remember getting ready in the hotel and watching Joe spin my husband's wedding band on the counter next to my rings as he was filming it and I could just see his creative juices flowing! This shot ended up being the beginning of our highlight video and it's absolutely perfect. Wedding Tales was recommended from a friend who loved their work. After reviewing their website and crying over highlight videos from people I didn't even know, I knew this was the team I wanted to capture our wedding. I loved that they were able to travel to San Diego, CA to shoot my wedding. I swear, the moments and details they captured, you would of thought they’ve been to my venue hundreds of time, when I’m pretty sure this was their first time!! They are absolute professionals and worth every single penny, if not more! We were able to share our wedding with family and friends who weren't able to attend and they felt as if they were there in person watching us say We Do, that's something hard to capture and Wedding Tales absolutely nailed it. I will forever be grateful for the beautiful work Wedding Tales and would recommended them to anyone!

We used Wedding Tales for both our photography and videography needs and were very happy! I know a lot of people choose to forego hiring a videographer but I am so glad we did. My husband and I both agreed after the fact that having a videographer was one of the best decisions we made. Our second best decision was choosing Wedding Tales to be the ones to capture our day. Joe was our main contact but his team (comprised of his brother and wife) were all incredible. They complemented each other well and were all extremely talented in their own way. Joe was very responsive and easy to work with. On the day of, all three went above and beyond to help ensure things went as planned (and not just related to the photos/video). Our church had very tight restrictions with regards to media yet Wedding Tales was still able to capture everything beautifully. The turn-around time was more than impressive and the quality was outstanding. When watching the highlight reel, ceremony footage and reception footage, you feel like you’re watching a movie. When comparing Wedding Tales footage to other companies, you can definitely see the difference. Honestly, we can’t say enough good things about Wedding Tales. They are worth every penny. Your photos and video are the only investment you make during your wedding. Choose wisely, choose Wedding Tales. You will be happy!
