  The Absolute Best!!!

  Melissa and Jim Lakey from the Quail & the Dove are seriously the best cinematic wedding videographers out there!
  
  11/10 would recommend!
  
  Our wedding video perfectly depicted us as a couple and the mood/vibe of our wedding day. Everything from the music choice, to the transitions/editing, to the drone footage, to the quick detailed shots made our film extra special. We’ve watched our video countless times now and are all smiles each time. Overall, we are left with this overwhelming amount of gratitude; we feel so honored to have Melissa and Jim film our special day and would definitely hire them again.

  Detailed breakdown of our time with them below:
  
  Planning: After filling out their intake form, we met in a zoom meeting where Jim and Melissa asked a bunch of questions about us and our love story. They were able to truly get a grasp for who my husband and I are and what style/vibe we were aiming for.
  
  Adventure session: Working with them was a blast; they made the adventure session truly feel like an adventure and everything felt super natural. We were kind of worried initially as we both have never done anything like this before. We were not entirely sure on how to act while being filmed, but they were great at giving us direction and guidance on how to show our love for one another in a way that felt the most natural for us. It truly felt like my husband and I were on a date and just had friendly paparazzi do coverage!
  
  Day of Wedding: Melissa and Jim were prompt and easy to contact. They filmed everything from us getting ready to even a mini adventure session post wedding! They captured special moments during our ceremony, during our reception and everything in between. They had asked us specifically what we wanted; we mentioned we’d love to have drone footage of us driving away as newlyweds and what came from that was far beyond our expectations!
  
  Communication: Super easy and quick to communicate with them! They are very responsive in their emails and usually reply back within 24 hours.
  
  After: They made sure to stay just as active in their communication with us after the wedding and sent us a fun 1-min sneak peek pretty quickly. We received our full length film along with the Super 8 Film Raw footage soon after and again, it was more than we could’ve ever imagined.

  Amazing filmmakers

  Quail and Dove do such amazing work. We were confident from looking at the films on their website and talking to them that they would do great work, but even so it exceeded all our expectations. Jim and Melissa are thoughtful, creative, professional, and great to be around, which made for a really great experience throughout the process - from planning to filming, and production of our wedding film.

  Incredible Experience!

  We couldn’t recommend The Quail and the Dove more highly and were blown away by the Oscar- award winning quality of our wedding video. Jim and Melissa are incredibly talented and not only captured our day, but put the video together in such an intentional way that bought out the feelings of joy, excitement, nervousness and love that made our special day so special.
  
  Jim and Melissa had great energy and were kind, calm, funny, fun and professional! They gave us helpful tips and recommendations before and during the wedding that helped enhance film quality and made our video and wedding more personal! Their presence throughout the day was positive and reassuring :)
  
  There’s so much going on on the day of the wedding, it can be difficult to take it all in. One of the things I loved the most was how Melissa and Jim captured the micro moments - friends dancing, photo-booth silliness, family embracing, and different aspects of our venue. Every time I watch the videos I pick up something new that I hadn’t seen before.
  
  We loved our teaser and full wedding video so much, that we also purchased recordings of the ceremony, speeches and dances. Our February 2020 wedding was right before the pandemic hit, and these videos have allowed us to relive the best day of our life time and time again.
  
  The Quail and The Dove exceeded our expectations, and we will treasure these videos for the rest of our lives. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Jim and Melissa, and would work with them again in a heartbeat!

  Dynamic Duo

  The Quail & The Dove exceeded all of our expectations! Creating a video that captured every emotion from our big day. They moved around our wedding seamlessly and put in the time to get a little bit of each part of our day. I would highly suggest hiring this dynamic duo!

  Look nice further!

  Booking The Quail and the Dove to film our tiny wedding was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding.
  
  We reached out to Jim and Melissa praying they were available for our wedding date and to our pleasant surprise they were (I literally cried).
  
  They were responsive, friendly and professional every step of the way. Not to mention they made our wedding day so much fun. One concern of mine was how awkward I get in front of the camera and they made the experience fun and comfortable. Taking our shots in the desert was one of my favorite parts of our wedding day.
  
  We already have our teaser video AND our full length video within three weeks of our wedding date and I'm miraculously not awkward in any of it.
  
  If you are looking for an amazing team to capture your wedding, look no further. They are absolutely unbelievable at capturing all of the special moments and putting it together like a beautiful tear jerking story.

  Absolutely Incredible

  We cannot rave enough about The Quail & The Dove to all our friends and family. Wedding videos can sometimes start to all look the same, and we really wanted a unique perspective on things. From their song selection, their artistic take on things, and their desire to really get to know us and tell our story, we were completely blown away by our experience with Jim & Melissa. We met with them the evening before our wedding to do an adventure session, and it was just a special opportunity to really have time with my husband-to-be, away from all the busyness and stress of everything. We felt like we had known them for so long, and we were just so comfortable with them. On the wedding day, they really captured all the details of our wedding. We've watched our teaser and our full wedding video more times than we can count. We coudn't have imagined having a wedding without them there. There were so many things that we didn't get to see during the wedding because we had almost 300 guests, and it was just so special that they were able to capture it all for us. Some of our wedding guests are professional photographers or videographers, and they commented on how well made the finished product was, how good the sound quality was for our vows, and how professional The Quail & The Dove are. We can't agree more and wholeheartedly recommend them for any couples getting married out there. Even our photographer, who has worked in the wedding industry for over 10 years, and has worked with so many different videographers over the years, has started recommending all of her brides to The Quail & The Dove, which speaks volumes about their talent. They're in high demand, so my advice would be to reach out to them well before your wedding date to make sure they have availability.

  A dream!

  Let me just start with saying, it doesn't get better than Jim and Melissa! My husband and I were lucky enough to have The Quail and the Dove at our wedding last year and they did the most AMAZING job capturing our favorite day ever. They are kind, easy to work with, have a knack for making you feel comfortable, and are wildly talented. Jim and Melissa operate like flies on the wall, only they are the kind of flies you want to have on your wall. We had the privilege of working with Jim and Melissa again recently for our one year anniversary video and I was reminded of how sweet and talented they are. Whatever the occasion may be, working with The Quail and the Dove will be one of the best decisions you could make for yourself and your fondest moments.

  Look no further! Feel like a movie star.

  The Quail & The Dove were amazing and they did an exceptional job capturing our wedding day!
  
  Two years before our wedding my wife saw a video that The Quail & The Dove had produced for a friend’s wedding and knew that they were the right choice for us (despite not even being engaged yet). When we first met with Jim and Melissa we immediately felt at ease and knew we were in good hands. Not only do they put together incredible cinematic videos but they also take the time to get to know you on a personal level to help better understand who you are as a couple and what you would like to capture on your big day.
  
  We opted to add the Adventure Session to our wedding video which ended up being a great decision! Jim and Melissa came to our home in San Diego a day early and were able to record us playing on the beach with our pup and riding bikes on the boardwalk. They went above and beyond by capturing some epic drone footage and we even had Jim doing sprints on the beach to get the perfect action shots! It really captured who we are as a couple and showcased the beautiful scenery around us. As this was all new to us they did an great job helping to direct us while not making it feel staged.
  
  Our wedding day went flawlessly and The Quail & The Dove captured every moment of it with ninja-like stealth. It’s incredible how they were able to get all of the shots they needed without feeling like they were in our face or obtrusive in the party. In fact, we and our guests hardly noticed them during cocktail hour and the reception, yet they were able to capture all of the best moments.
  
  The turnaround time to get our "teaser" video was incredibly quick and gave us and our guests a quick 60 second recap of our special day. The final video ended up being better than we could have ever imagined. Jim and Melissa took the time to make any edits or background music substitutions that we threw at them. It's true that you get what you pay for when choosing a videographer and we could not have been happier with our decision to choose The Quail & The Dove!

  Can't say enough good things about them!

  Can't say enough good things about Q+D!
  
  First of all, the quality of their work speaks for itself. If you haven't had a chance to check out their videos, start there and I guarantee you won't need to read the rest of my review -- you're gonna want to book them right away!
  
  However, if you're curious about the BTS (behind the scenes) process, let me tell you -- they are amazing!
  
  As a wedding planner, Melissa and Jim are the dream vendors that I wish I can work with for all of my events. Their correspondence via email was quick and thorough, asking questions that only professionals know to ask.
  
  My clients also booked an adventure session with them the week of the wedding, and afterward, they could not stop raving about how much fun Melissa + Jim were! They have a skill that brings out the natural and genuine fun in their couples.
  
  Come wedding day, they were on time, responsive, and ~chill~ (can't stress enough how important this is for the wedding day!). It's great working with a team that is cool, calm, and collected. Not to mention, PRESENT. Never did we have to find or chase them down -- they were always right there, taking in the action.
  
  All in all, don't hesitate! Q+D are 1000% worth it!
  
  Thank you, Melissa + Jim!
  
  With Love,
  Jojo of SixteenFourteen Events

  Best wedding decision we made!

  Jim and Melissa were wonderful from the start! They created such a fun and comfortable atmosphere and were such a joy to spend our wedding day with! Already just two weeks after our wedding we have received our teaser videos and I couldn’t be more pleased! Their ability to capture our day and all the feelings in just 30 seconds is amazing, I can’t wait to see the final product. I feel so lucky to have had The Quail and Dove document our day!

  The absolute best!

  From the initial FaceTime with Melissa, we knew we made the right decision choosing them for our wedding! They completely captured the feeling of the day from beginning to end. They are so genuine and made us feel comfortable throughout the day–I can't believe some of the shots they got because I honestly didn't even realize they were there half the time! We're so lucky and grateful to have such a perfect depiction of our wedding day to watch forever :)

  Worth every penny!

  I’ve been following The Quail and the Dove on social media for years, so naturally they were the first vendor I reached out to in the wedding planning process. They were super responsive right away and helped me find a video option that fit our budget and captured everything we wanted. They also helped me find a local wedding photographer in the area. Throughout the planning process they periodically checked in to see how things were going and update us about the day. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, they were on top of every little detail and communicated with our day of coordinator to make sure all of ducks were in a row. On the wedding day, they went above and beyond to make sure we got all the shots we wanted and really put us at ease. They are a wonderful team with the most positive energy. After the wedding, they sent us song choices really quickly and had our video back to us much sooner than we imagined. It turned out beautifully. We’ve watched it hundreds of times and have shared it with anyone who will watch. We are both so glad we made the investment to have the video. It captures all of the joy and magic of the day and we’ll cherish it for years to come

  Seriously the BEST!

  Melissa and Jim with The Quail & The Dove are about the kindest people we've met and we were so honored to have them film our special day. We knew the moment we spoke to them on the phone that we were going to like them. They exceeded all our expectations and some. They captured every detail of the wedding we were hoping to be able to look back on. One thing we really appreciated was how easy they were able to contact and how well they worked with our vendors. We highly recommend The Quail and The Dove and were so lucky we found such amazing people!

  The Quail and the Dove are the BEST. If you're on the fence about a wedding video, don't be. Melissa and Jim delivered a beautiful video that perfectly captured our day and the vibe of the wedding. My husband, who was concerned about the usual cringeworthiness of wedding videos, was so impressed and we both agree that going with The Quail and The Dove was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process.
