    Hire Them!!!

    From the time be booked happy tears to even now, months later- it has been beyond our expectations! John is such an organized, humble and genuine person who helped us with everything! Our videographer the day of was Jim, everyone had the same things to say about him- he was the energy for the day! Would recommend this team to everyone and anyone ! Thanks for making our day so special!!!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Shannon! Thank you so much for your very kind words! Jim told me how much he loved shooting your wedding! His footage was impeccable (as it always is at your venue; The Hamilton Manor!

And now...just continue that party mentality throughout your marriage; Shannon! You and Kris look sooooooooo happy together, in your footage!!! You guys are most definitely going the distance!!! ;-)

    Happy tears is the best!

    Happy Tears is who you want for your big day! Jim was so much fun! His good vibes made everyone laugh and smile all day. He captured so much n footage and bloopers I will always be able to look back on and remember. He did an amazing job. He got the bridal party involved by asking fun questions and having some silly moments. I got my wedding video back within the month! The communication John kept with me made the difference. I felt like we grew a relationship which I think helped him develop the best video for me. The turnaround was great. My videos were perfect it captured every special moment and more. My guests loved to watch it! The highlight video was light and fun! It brought me back to the day. Our extended version is a beautiful reminder of how my entire day went and captured all the small details I might have missed. Everything was spot on down to the background music. I am so happy I chose happy tears for my wedding day!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Gina! Thank you for your awesome feedback! You and Blake are an awesome couple! Jim had a lot of kind things to say about you guys, and i could tell, by reviewing your footage that he brought to me, that your wedding day was an unforgettable experience (so say the very least!!!). You guys take care, as you keep rockin the newlywed life!!! /John - Creator of Happy Tears

    HappyTears Review

    My husband and I got married back in June and had the pleasure of using happytearsproduction for our video. John was absolutely phenomenal. He made every meeting personable and made sure to keep everyone in the loop with constant updates.
    Our videographer the day of our wedding was amazing! It was great, he actually knew my new sister and brother in law which just made the experience even greater! It was like he was a part of the family! He was extremely sweet and so creative with our family. Truly an amazing day!
    We were extremely pleased and overjoyed with how our teaser video came out. It was truly what we asked for was made to represent us which we absolutely loved.
    If you are even considering going with John at HappyTears, pull the trigger and do it! Truly an amazing company!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Shyla! You're awesome!!!! We sooooo appreciate you; here at Happy Tears!!!! Let's re-do your wedding, every year; how about THAT?!? HAHAHA

    A GREAT choice for your videographer!

    My husband and I were going and forth on whether or not to hire a videographer, but I am so glad we decided to after finding John with Happy Tears. John (the owner) is extremely charismatic, uplifting, and positive. He just makes you feel so excited with every communication. He offers amazing discounts and is therefore very affordable, which proves that he truly does this for the love of his craft and his love for love. John edits the videos, and after receiving ours, we were blown away! He captured moments I didn't even know happened, and had me crying "happy tears" while watching over and over again.

    Now to our day of videographer - we were fortunate enough to have Joe and his son, Avery, with us on our wedding day, and I cannot say enough great things about them both! Joe has been in this business for over 20 years, so I knew we were in good hands, but he really proved us right! He was directive, detail oriented, creative, and professional. My husband and I barely knew they were there the whole day, which is so important to capture truly candid moments. We are forever grateful to John, Joe, and Avery for being a part of our wedding day and capturing moments that we will hold close forever.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Rose! Thank you a million times over, for this amazing review! Your words are clearly straight from your heart, and I sooooo appreciate that! And thank you for taking the time to mention Joe & Avery! Those two are absolute Rock Stars, for us here at Happy Tears! We're blessed to have them!

    Best decision ever!


    Jim was our videographer & when I say Jim not only captured the party he created the party! Jim was the hype man of the century! Beyond polite & professional, while also partying with us. Jim made us feel so comfortable ! John the owner, was in contact before during and after my wedding always checking in! We appreciate all of the friendly reminders and encouragement from their company through the process. In just a few short weeks I received my wedding video and it was PERFECT! I could not recommend Happy Tears enough! We are so grateful we chose them as our vendor.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Brooke! Thank you, a million times over, for such a well-written review! And you're spot-on about Jim! The HYPE MAN HE IS!!! hahaha And how could he NOT join in the fun, with all the fun that was happening on the dance floor; Right?!? Your DJ "Danny D" from Danny D Events, gets most of the credit; however, for packing your dance floor, all night long! Jim said that Danny was a real rockstar!! As I was working on your production, those sentiments by Jim were easily confirmed! And let's give a shout-out to your venue (Linwood Country Club) as well. We love Linwood CC to the MAX! Both the management, and the staff, are real Pro's!!! And speaking of "Pro's", Jim told me that it was a real pleasure working with your photographer "Jenn", from Jennifer Sofia Photography! Do you feel that you had THE 'A' TEAM OF VENDORS, or WHAT?!?

    Highly recommend!

    John and his team did a phenomenal job with our wedding video! Our videographer for the day, Jim, was amazing and knew exactly what we wanted! I highly recommend hiring John and his team for your wedding. You won’t regret it!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Gianna! Thank you for your very kind words! We love our couples who review us! And speaking of "love", do you love Valleybrook Country Club as much as WE do, here at Happy Tears?!? Is Tracey Mullin phenomenal or WHAT??? And speaking of phenomenal, Jim told me how "phenomenal" it was, working with your photographer; Jennifer Helene! It's always a huge plus; on behalf of the bride & groom, when their photographer and videographer work well together! I, for one, am always a happy camper, when such is the case!!! :) Thank you, to both you and Brandon, for hiring Happy Tears, Gianna! I sincerely love you guys!!!

    The best!!

    John and his team were AMAZING and easy to work with! He truly cares about his clients and takes the time to get to know you. Each interaction was thoughtful and kind. The videos were absolutely stunning and magical. We are grateful that we will forever be able to look back on these memories. Picking Happy Tears as our videographer was one of the best decisions that we made during our wedding journey!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Kasey! Thank you for such a heartfelt review! Since you used he word "magical", to describe your video production, I must say that your sweet baby Camryn, is truly the Magical one!! She stole the show, a little bit, from you and Frank; Wouldn't ya say?!? hahaha. I bet you don't mind at all. She was so photogenic on your wedding day! You couldn't ask for a more well-behaved, and genuinely happy little toddler throughout your entire wedding!!! :))). You and Frank really know how to create an Angel, I gotta tell ya!!! And who KNOWS...maybe we'll be filming HER wedding some day; Right?!? Ok ok...I know; let's not rush things!!! hahaha

    BEST Decision!

    At first we were on the fence about if we should have a videographer on our wedding day, but we did, and it was the BEST decision we made! Happy Tears Production truly went above and beyond to make sure every meaningful moment was captured! They were not only professional, but also made us feel completely at ease, which allowed them to capture all the candid and emotional moments of our special day that we will cherish forever. Their ability to blend into the background, yet catch the most intimate and joyful moments was unbelievable. The final video was nothing short of astonishing…it brought us right back to the emotions of the day (they are called Happy Tears for a reasonJ). Their creative vision and attention to detail made the video truly unique and perfectly captured our love story. If you’re looking for a videographer to bring your wedding day to life we wholeheartedly recommend Happy Tears Production! We’ll treasure this video for years to come!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Jeanna; WOW! I'm thankful that you and Sean decided to get off of that "fence" into the lap of Happy Tears!!! ;-). It was such a pleasure producing your video! And it was a real pleasure working with you and Sean, along the way! I'm very happy to know that my anal attention-to-detail, on our lengthy telephone conversations, didn't drive you NUTS!!! hahaha On that note, Jeanna; I'll take this opportunity, herein, to again wish you and Sean the absolute best that marriage has to offer! You two are PERFECT together!!! :)

    A must book!

    Happy Tears is a must book! John is extremely talented and thorough. He truly took the time to get to know us and everything we wanted for our special day to provide both an easy and unforgettable experience. Rose was our videographer, and she was absolutely incredible. We felt very comfortable all day. The highlight video captured all of our favorite parts of our wedding day. They offer a wide range of services including multiple package options, making them a great choice for everyone!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Alyssa! Thank you for your awesome review, and moreover, thank you for mentioning your videographer Rose! Rose is my most tenured videographer, on my staff, and I'd love to have TEN of her! She's not just a solid videographer, but she's an entire wedding industry resource!! Everybody loves Rose!!! And getting back to your wedding...yes; Rose captured it perfectly! I love it when wedding footage has the power to generate so many human emotions, and as you know; that's precisely what your footage did! It couldn't be more crystal clear how much you and Alec love each other, Alyssa, and THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT!!!

    100000/10!

    John is absolutely amazing and so easy to work with. He kept up with communication amazing and always kept us updated. He gave us back our wedding highlight video a week after our wedding! Jim was the videographer for the night and he was SOO fun he was out on the dance floor with all the guests getting the best footage. He was super involved and helped bring the fun!! For those that are healthcare workers, Happy Tears offers discounts which was greatly appreciated and he’s super lenient with payments- even allows final payment up to two weeks after the wedding! That was unique and super kind. Absolutely amazing.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Kacie; WOW..."10,000/10" YOU SAY?!? Now THAT'S the HIGHEST STAR RATING OF THE CENTURY!!! ;-) Thank you, so much, Kacie! I absolutely positively LOVE IT whenever someone's energy matches MINE; and YOU JUST DID SUCH!!!! hahaha And thank you for mentioning how I feel about healthcare workers, such as those in the nursing profession, and actually all of those amazing people who are selfless in their careers, as they care for others! I have a very special place, in my heart, for said people, for a wide variety of reasons! Now...regarding your wedding; OMG is your venue, THE BRADFORD ESTATE, INCREDIBLE OR WHAT?!? I cannot even begin to tell you how much we love filming weddings there! Both the management, and the staff, are rock solid professionals, am I RIGHT?!? And hey...we're going back there, for what...your 5th anniversary??? Or will it be your 10th...??? Either way; I'M IN...!!!!!!!! ;-)

    Best videographer ever!

    From our first contact with John from Happy Tears, we knew him & his crew would be the perfect addition to our special day! John was absolutely fabulous with communication and making sure our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. John was so personable and friendly throughout the entire process. Jim from Happy Tears was the shooter on our wedding day. He brought so much positive energy to the day, listened thoroughly to our wants, and got the BEST shots. Everyone from happy tears is extremely fun and pleasant to work with and would recommend to anyone in need of a wedding videographer! We cannot stop watching, crying, and laughing to the perfect video of our perfect day! The video is jaw dropping.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Madison! OMG I cannot even begin to tell you how happy I am that Ashley (Ashley Silva Family Photography) referred you to us, here at Happy Tears, as the result of us filming HER wedding, long ago!!! Ashley is a real sweetheart, and quite frankly; SO ARE YOU, MADISON! Your wedding footage, by my Cinematographer; Jim, was SO MUCH FUN to edit! So thank you for mentioning Jim, in your review! He truly deserves all the praises that virtually everyone sings for him!!! So...on that note, I want us to all get together again, sometime! Let's call in a mini reunion! But in the meantime; how about you and Issac just bask in the newlywed life for a while?!? In fact; KEEP IT FEELING NEW, FOR A VERY LONG TIME! I have faith that you guys can easily do that! You two are clearly sooooooo much in love!!!!!! :)))))

    Amazing team - highly recommend!

    We had our wedding last Saturday and where do we even start! We originally weren’t going to do a video because it was out of budget for us but at the last minute (I’m talking days before the wedding!!) it became a possibility. We reached out to John on a referral and are so grateful to him and his team!! He was so patient and kind with us even though we were basically presenting him with an unrealistic task. He was super understanding of our situation and spent night and day to make this a reality for us. He walked us in detail through all the packages and made sure we understood the differences but was not pushy about any upgrades. Joe was our videographer and he was amazing and super professional. He worked so well with our photographer and he made us feel so comfortable, we barely noticed him there. We HIGHLY recommend John and his team - he truly saved our day!!!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Nina! I absolutely love your super kind words! And I'm glad you've mentioned us, here at Happy Tears, being referred by your photographer (United Elite Photography) because the owner of United Elite (Marcia) is a wedding industry rockstar! And your photographer "Olga", is at the top of the United Elite Class!!! We LOVE working with Olga!!!!! And thank you for mentioning our guy "Joe"! As cliche as it may sound, we know him as "Joe The Pro"!! haha. Seriously though; Joe is the optimum professional. And while we're at it; let's give a shout-out to Joe's Assistant, his very own Son; Avery! Joe and Avery are the "A" TEAM, for sure!!! Working on your wedding production, editing Joe's footage, is a real pleasure beyond belief!! And you already know the result! I could not have said it any better, myself! So thank you, so so much, Nina, to both you and Renzo, for hiring Happy Tears for your wedding! May you and Renzo enjoy many happy years together, with any tears being exclusively HAPPY tears...!! ;-)

    We cannot express enough gratitude to the team at Happy Tears for their incredible work on our wedding video.

    We cannot express enough gratitude to the team at Happy Tears for their incredible work on our wedding video. Jeff captured the most beautiful footage of our special day, preserving every moment with an artistic eye that brings our memories to life. John was amazing to work with, guiding us through the entire process and ensuring every detail matched our vision. He even made sure our dogs had their special moment in the video, which means the world to us. The final result is beyond beautiful—a perfect reflection of our day and who we are as a couple. Every time my husband and I watch it, we find ourselves tearing up with joy all over again! We cannot thank the Happy Tears team enough for capturing our wedding day so perfectly and wholeheartedly recommend them!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Megan!! You and James are a great couple, and THAT'S AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!! When the 3 of us were discussing your wedding, on our pre-wedding call, just a month or so ago, I was so excited to get your footage into production! First and foremost; the fact that you were having both your doggies involved, is JUST THE BEST...!!! Being the dog-lover that I am, I always get major goose bumps whenever a couple tells me that their dogs are going to be in the wedding!!! THEN; OMG THAT AWESOME MUSCLE CAR in the mix!!! What great footage that car created for us!!! I've actually shown your video to some of my 'car friends' and the 'feedback word' was "WOW"!!! And speaking of the word "wow"...OMG YOUR WEDDING DRESS WAS THE PERFECT FIT FOR YOU!!!! LIKE A GLOVE!!!! YOU, my Dear; KNOCKED IT OUTTA THE PARK (and of course I'm sure that James agrees; 100%).

    Made all our dreams come true!!

    When we originally had first spoken with John from Happy Tears, something about that conversation just seemed so right! My husband and I immediately knew that we were in great hands and that our visions would all come to life in terms of our wedding videography. One thing that stood out to us was John's flexibility with payment and packages for teachers. That was extremely helpful to my husband and I and we are so grateful that we have used Happy Tears for our video services. On the wedding day, the Happy Tears team showed up early and were working diligently throughout the entire wedding day, which included our drone footage of the venue, getting ready, ceremony and reception. We received our video footage in a timely manner and it was such a lovely surprise to see the extensive lengths that the Happy Tears team went through to provide us with the most heartwarming and beautifully produced film to capture our dream day. We are so glad that we chose Happy Tears and working with John and Jim was such an easy process and now our wedding footage is our favorite thing to watch. Now we have these memories forever and we are so forever grateful for John, Jim and Happy Tears for making our dreams come true! 

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Jodi! WOW! You just made my weekend, with all of your ultra-kind words!!! Thank you, a thousand times over!!! You and Joe make such the perfect couple! The best part, about the two of you, is that the love you guys share is evident. I love how you two RARELY SEPARATED, throughout your wedding day, once you saw one another! And on top of that; the way you two look at each other is just another way of spelling the word "LOVE"!!! You two have an amazing future in store; I can tell!!!! God Bless you both; Jodi!

    Hire The Videographer!

    We decided to go with Happy Tears based off a recommendation, we are so glad we did. From beginning to end, John was informative and thorough. The day of our wedding we had 2 shooters, Belle & Jim who both did a great job at capturing the moments. Our teaser video followed by the wedding trailer were done so quickly, it was “happy tears” the moment we pressed play. The one thing I wanted the most for our wedding was a videographer to capture all of the moments I knew we would not be able to witness due to how busy the day would be. We were very satisfied with the work produced by John and his team; we now get to watch our video forever.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Amanda! Thank you so much for your review! And a very special thank you, for mentioning your videographers for your big day! Jim and Belle are awesome together! They really roll out the red carpet! I'm blessed to have them on our team!!! And btw; both of them couldn't stop talking about your wedding day, the day after; when I was speaking with on our post-wedding day follow-up conversation! Once I heard all that they had to say, I just couldn't wait to begin editing all of the amazing footage that they filmed! So; I am so happy that you loved your production! I thank you, again; and I wish you and Justin all the best that marriage has to offer!!!

    Couldn’t be happier with Happy Tears

    We used Happy Tears for our wedding and I couldn’t have been happier! John was so friendly and was great at communicating everything. He was so helpful and detailed that it really put my mind at ease that we would get exactly what we want the day of our wedding. Rose was our videographer the day of and she was so nice and professional and really did amazing at capturing the day and making us feel comfortable. We got our video back pretty quickly and it was better than we could have imagined!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Lindsay! Thank you for your very nice review, and thank you, in particular, for giving Rose a shout-out! I love it when our couples mention their videographer for the day! Rose is awesome! Everyone loves their experience with her! I wish you and Ben all the best; Lindsay! It was a genuine pleasure working with you guys!!!

    John and Joe are a gift to the wedding industry

    I worked with John and Joe on my wedding and I truly can't recommend them enough. John is caring, kind, and truly someone who will do anything to make sure that his clients are happy. We chatted wedding things and beyond and all throughout the wedding planning process, John checked in on us. He started as a vendor but truly became a friend! He is an incredibly talented video editor and has such skill in what he does! Joe, our videographer, has a keen eye to catch moments! He can look around a room and capture all the right moments to make sure that watching this video will feel like reliving the day. I'll cherish this video forever! thank you, John & Joe.

And getting back to you and Zach, Alexia; I wish you two all the love and happiness that marriage has to offer!!! /John

    Happy tears

    Our wedding was on April 26, 2024, and all I can say is happy tears were terrific from the start.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Ryan! Thank you, so much, for your review! I especially love it whenever a GROOM takes the time to write a review, because as you can probably guess; it's usually the bride... And hey; speaking of 'the bride'...OMG DID JESSIE LOOK ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, ON YOUR BIG DAY, or WHAT?!? WOW; RIGHT?!? i'm sure you agree!!! ;-)

    Best wishes, to you and Jessie, on your future in marriage; Ryan!

    Very truly yours,
    John - Creator of Happy Tears

    10/10 experience

    Working with Happy Tears Production was one of the best decisions my husband & I ever made. They are incredible & such a fun company to work with. We met them a year ago when they shot a wedding we were in. Jim was the videographer at the time & he was awesome, to say the least. Once we saw the finished product of the wedding video, we knew we were hiring them to do ours as well when the time came. A few months later, we got engaged & wasted no time contacting Happy Tears Production. Since that day John, who is the owner of Happy Tears, has been incredible. He reaches out & checks in, he talks you through all of the packages, & he also includes the groom in almost every conversation. My wedding was on 04/13 & two days later, I got a 1.5 minute long teaser video & let me just tell you.. I already know that was some of the best money we spent. Jim, the videographer that just shot my wedding, is AMAZING. He is so friendly, full of great energy, & knows exactly what he’s doing. My family has used Happy Tears Production for multiple different occasions, I can’t say enough great things about the company & their team. Hire Happy Tears Production for all of your events, but especially your wedding & engagement, you WILL NOT regret it. Thank you again to John for being so wonderful & thoughtful. And to Jim, for being there on our wedding day capturing all of the special moments. We are so grateful for Happy Tears!

    Hey Lexie! That review is nothing less than OUTSTANDING!!! As you know; your wedding was the 2nd of 3, in the BRIDES TRIO of Kristine, then you, and soon Kayla!!! We love it; Lexie! With every wedding, in our food chain, everything feels like a HAPPY TEARS REUNION!!! We, at Happy Tears, SOOOOOO APPRECIATE brides like you three (3) amazing young Ladies; lemme TELL YA!!! ;-) Now; as for you, my Dear, like I said to you, Eric and your Mom, when we were all on the phone together; "YOU WERE A DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS BRIDE!!!" It was "YOU" WHO MADE THE VIDEO!!!! The "Teaser" which I felt I just HAD to drop everything else, that I was doing, and pump that baby out, for you and Eric, in record time, because as soon as I saw you, in your dress, I was like "HOLEEEEEEEEEE S*** OMG WOW-WOW-WOW!!!" YEA; YOU HAD THAT EFFECT ON ME; Lexie! I'm sure that Eric can relate!! ;-) And now....there's more still to come; as you know! So while waiting...don't let those pins and needles sting TOO much, but rather just enough, to make it HURT SO GOOD!!! ;-)
    Very truly yours,
    John - Creator of Happy Tears

    10/10 recommend

    We had the absolute best experience with Happy Tears and would recommend them to everyone! John (owner) is wonderful to work with. The communication from start to end was amazing. He answered every question there was and was so patient the entire time. He even gave suggestions to us which was much appreciated for the day and gave us the best footage! They are also very flexible. We added and changed things about the day of our wedding very last minute and they had no problem accommodating us. On top of service being incredible, price was reasonable as well! We had Jim shoot the footage on the day of the wedding and there are not enough good things to say! He was a part of the party and it was such a joy to work with him. He made the entire day so fun and so easy and we felt so lucky. Overall, I would recommend 10/10 every day! An amazing company to work with. They really make you feel like family and not just a client.

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Lauren! I love your review! Thank you so much! And yes, you are absolutely 100% correct when you refer to us, here at Happy Tears, as “feeling like FAMILY”!!! That is precisely why, each, and every time, that we get hired… I say, to the subject, Bride and Groom to be: “WELCOME TO THE HAPPY TEARS FAMILY”!!!

    Edmondson Wedding

    John was super professional, organized, and quick to respond. We really wanted a long video so we could relive the whole ceremony, speeches, and dancing. John was the first company to offer more than a highlight reel! His discounts are so helpful and the quality of work is too notch. Jim was our videographer on the day of and we couldn't have asked for a better person. His energy was contagious and he made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera so it looked natural. My guests all loved Jim and even started a chant for him during the reception. We got our finished video back in less than 1 month after our wedding. I can't recommend Happy Tears more!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    Hey Lori! Thank you so much for your very kind review! And thank you for mentioning Jim, in your review! And OMG I loved all that chanting...indeed, when I was editing your video! Jim always has a way of not just making things fun, but moreover pulling even a few otherwise introverts out of their comfort zone (and then, possibly with the help of some liquid courage, they're in a whole new zone!!!). That's kinda the effect that Jim often has, on people!! ;-)

    The best company out here

    Set your expectations high and GET EXCITED. If your looking for a reliable, amazing videographer, YOUR SERCH IS OVER. Happy Tears Productions has the rockstar team you are looking for. They are absolutely AMAZING.
    The first time I ever saw Happy Tears in action was at my best friends wedding. The team blends right in with the guests in the BEST way possible. You can really tell how much they enjoy the job that they do and ooh my goodness; they do it damn well. I knew officially that I wanted to have Happy Tears Productions after that day. They allowed ME (not even the bride) to have a second go at my best friends wedding because the video footage of her highlights brought it all back and allowed me to really relive that day. I think I watched it more than she did.
    Anyway, the point is that HAPPY TEARS productions have completely exceeded my expectations.
    I knew I wanted to work with them not only because my best friend used them, but I could see the work they did and how proud and happy they are when doing it.
    If you didn't know by now that the owners name is John Rink, well, now you know. I'm so proud and so lucky to know someone who truly cares about his business and is completely involved. The process of planning and paying was made super easy. I have Johns contact number and any time I had a question, concern or just something I wanted to bring up, he was responsive and ready to talk; and trust me I had lots of questions and concerns. He makes time for his clients and he truly cares. It was a pleasure working with him and his team- specifically Jim (my second shooter) who was just so fun to work with as a bride- THANKS JIM. John is personable and professional on every level. He has become a friend through the process and it feels good to trust the vendors that you bring in for your special day or occasion.
    When it was finally my time to really start planning my wedding I didn't hesitate before I called John Rink and said I was ready to book. Happy tears takes every opportunity they can to help you get the best deal for the money you are spending and I promise you it's well worth it.
    Having a second shooter is key to capturing every moment from the best possible angles.
    Only a couple weeks out AFTER our wedding day we received the most amazing teaser video. John was so quick with his return on services. I was PLEASANTLY stunned.
    I couldn't believe the masterpiece he put together. THANK GOD we had John and Jim to capture the moments because although we weren't drinking too much we still didn't remember all parts of our wedding.
    Happy tears has made a HUGE impact on our lives for our wedding day. Friends and family are able to look back on our special day and it truly warms my heart in the effort and time that was put into the footage that was taken and put together.
    I truly have all good things to say about Happy Tears and the team that comes with it. They have allowed my husband and I to re-live our day over and over. I catch myself dancing, laughing, smiling, and crying those HAPPY TEARS every single time I watch my videos. I promise you won't regret booking with this company. It's worth the reasonable price and its worth the short wait period.
    John- thank you for being so quick, so professional and so friendly and just showing that there is a love for what you do. Having a videographer is one thing, but having YOU John Rink ; and your team is like NO other.
    HIRE THIS COMPANY BEFORE YOUR DATE IS TAKEN!!

    Happy Tears Productions's reply:

    OMG Jess, that review of yours was absolutely fantastic! Jim and I never stop talking about your wedding!! Regardless of what our topic of conversation might be, it seems that at some point…one of us brings up your wedding! It’s usually something like “Yea, like Jessica and James” or “don’t ya wish every couple was more like Jessica and James!!!” or “Wow! Do you absolutely love Jessica’s energy or what?!?” And my favorite part of your entire day is something that I don’t think I will ever stop talking about which is that of your personal vows between you and James!!!!!!! Those vows get an “11”, on a “1 to 10” scale!!!! As you know I have already told you how I felt, about your vows, when I felt that I just had to call you, during my editing process, to tell you that I was actually tearing-up (Happy Tears, of course) as I was at the stage of your vows!!! I will never forget that conversation with you, as I don’t think I will ever forget all of our many conversations, that we have had together! I sincerely love and appreciate you, Jess!!!! You and James will always have a special place in my heart! Yes; I know that sounds cliché, but it is truly pinpoint accurate! To put it another way; you are never going to get rid of me!!!!! Next on the big list…is that of your honeymoon! I definitely want pictures and details of all of the beautiful sites and scenes that you and James will be seeing, at the very least! And when you guys eventually return… I want you both to stay on that “honeymoon high”, for as long as you possibly can!!! in fact, as you two are living married life together, whenever you may feel a quarrel or a disagreement coming on, I have an assignment for you: Call a “time-out”, and then the both of you just re-watch your wedding videos, right at that moment! If you carry out this assignment, I guarantee you that you both will literally forget about whatever it was, that was causing some tension… Trust me, Jess! This ‘assignment’ of mine, is my Magic Formula… It Works; big time!!!!!!!
