y captured a beautiful highlight video, and included so many special touches that you won't find with other videographers!! Included in our package was a message video with heartfelt words from our bridal party and the important people in our lives, raw footage, and drone footage as well. One thing that meant so much to us when looking for videographers was having our entire ceremony on video, which is incredibly special and something we will treasure forever. They were thoughtful in the way they documented every moment, allowing us to relive our day in such a genuine way. We highly recommend 5 Cents Media to anyone looking for a wedding videography team that truly cares about preserving every detail!

Overall, 5Cents Media exceeded our expectations and we're so grateful they were a part of our big day.

We had an incredible experience working with Matt Nichol of 5Cents Media for our wedding. From start to finish, Matt was the definition of professionalism. He was punctual, well-pr...
epared, and seamlessly blended into the day while still capturing every important moment.
What truly stood out was his attention to detail and storytelling. The way he captured the order and flow of the ceremony was exceptional -everything felt intentional, natural, and beautifully paced. Watching the video felt like reliving the day exactly as it happened, with all the emotion and significance preserved.
Matt’s calm presence, clear communication, and mastery of his craft made the entire process stress-free. You can tell he takes pride in his work and understands how important these moments are to a couple.
If you’re looking for a videographer who is professional, detail-oriented, and genuinely talented, I cannot recommend 5Cents Media enough. Matt exceeded our expectations, and we’re incredibly grateful to have such a timeless wedding video to cherish forever.

We got married in Sept and it went off without a hitch!
Initially, we were unsure of whether or not to use a videographer; we’re so glad we did! We chose Matt because of his chari...
sma, positive attitude and relatable demeanor. It definitely translated into his work. Matt helped bring the best out of our guests and captured heart warming and fun moments. He was professional, courteous with our photographer and elated to be a part of our day. Matt takes his work and job very seriously! Expect great service, follow-up calls and affirmation with his product.
Get a videographer, choose Matt… you won’t regret it.
Great job Matt!

We cannot say enough good things about Matt. We absolutely love our wedding video, and we are so glad we hired him. First, our videos are phenomenal. Matt captured all of the impor...
tant moments in such a special way. Paying close attention to the little details, and tailoring it to the personalities of the bride and groom. Second, Matt was incredibly easy to work with, and communicating with him was straightforward. Third, Matt was the consummate professional — he arrived early and stayed late! Fourth, he brought a great energy to our special day. Everyone commented on his cheerful and bright disposition. Fifth, in addition to providing excellent services as a videographer, Matt was available to help out with all manner of small hiccups that occurred on the day (up to and including bustling a very tricky dress for the bride). He even brought a sewing kit along, in case it was needed. We would recommend Matt as a first choice for anyone looking to hire a videographer. Having him be a part of our day was probably the best decision we made throughout the entire planning process.

I don’t remember how I found 5 cent media, but I’m so happy that I did. You’ll be so happy you picked them for your wedding or any video service.
The product: perfect. The qualit...
y was great. He used drones to get amazing footage and got perfect shots throughout the day. He was the first person there, before even us! We had a viewing party on YouTube and everyone loved it! We still are getting messages from people who saw the video a d tell us how much they loved it and how great the video is. We got our preview video back relatively quickly (when you’re waiting for it, it can feel like forever! But it was actually back pretty quickly). It wasn’t long after that we received the full video and raw footage, which was saved on a nice Samsung external drive in a ridiculously nice case. Very easy to access and very easy to share.
The service: this is where they really shine. He really took the time to get to know of to customize our video. Everything felt so personalized and we felt like we had his full attention. To be honest, I thought he must not have a lot of customers if he’s able to give us this much attention, but that’s just how he works. You can see in his social pages that he has a lot of clients. He just makes you feel like the most important one. I imagine all of his clients feel this way.
We are a same sex couple. He treated us with respect and equal. Right before our wedding, the Supreme Court issued a ruling that some businesses could discriminate. It wasn’t really clear what the impact would be at the time. That same day 5cent media posted on their social pages that they do not and will not discriminate against anyone. It really meant a lot to us. Also, he bought rainbow socks to wear the day of our wedding to show support. Again, a little touch that meant a lot to us.

rapher who captures a 30 second social media highlight that’s incredibly formulaic, maybe Matt isn’t for you. But if you want someone that is intentional, that will personalize your experience, and give you an incredible amount of product for an unheard of value, talk to Matt. You won’t regret it.
We got the “Being social” package and received a 10-minute fully edited highlight film that was touching and funny and gorgeous and really showed the whole day from start to finish. Our favorite product from him though was an edited “personal messages” video. This was something that we could not find anywhere else and something that was most important to us. He talked to over 30 family members and created a 25-minute film for us that we’ll be able to look back on and show our kids and grandkids: these were your grandparents, and great aunts, etc. It really is one of a kind and something he’s really passionate about providing for couples.
If that’s not enough - he also provided a fully edited ceremony video, a fully edited speeches and first dance video, plus all of the raw footage!! The raw footage included dance clips and small moments that didn’t make it into the final highlight film but truly captured so much joy and emotion throughout the day. We loved watching them! Matt will answer all of your questions. He will work with you to create something unique and beautiful. Don’t pass that up!

e had with him), he is extremely upbeat, relaxed, and flexible and willing to help however he can! He really customizes his work to what you want and gets great shots! During the ceremony and throughout the day his equipment is not at all in the way to cause any distraction to the ceremony yet still gets the perfect footage. Final videos were delivered very quickly and were everything we hoped for and more. You can tell he is passionate about what he does (or at least it seems like it!) and it shows in his work. Can’t recommend more!

st to respond back and was incredibly helpful. It was really easy to communicate with him and get everything quickly set up. Then, on the wedding day, Matt arrived on time and with great energy! He was so much fun to work with throughout the day, and was great about getting important and personal shots.
We received our social media about 3 days after the wedding. The 60 sec trailer captured the special moments from the wedding day and was exactly what we wanted to share with family and friends. Then, a month after the wedding we received our highlight video. Matt was accommodating with our edits/feedback. He captured the emotions of the day, got a lot of candid footage, and special messages from family and friends. We received our video package in the mail, and it was presented so nicely. He provided so much well edited footage in neat videos. We will treasure these videos forever. Thank you, Matt!

hat. Matt was punctual, professional, and an overall great resource on our wedding day. His personality is amazing, and he's great at making everyone comfortable and having a good time.
Now onto the technical stuff. I first contacted Matt because I wanted a very basic package and he offers just that. After speaking with him and learning more about the other packages he has to offer, I upgraded to include a highlight reel. The highlight reel alone was worth the price. My husband and I have watched it almost every day since we received it, and all our family and friends have said they can't believe how amazing it is. My husband and I arent dancers, but Matt's editing made our first dance look like we do this all day every day. Matt captured all the little details and things we didn't even know happened at the wedding! We are so proud to show off our wedding video, including my previously hesitant husband.
We would not (and will not!) hesitate to hire Matt in the future, and we already have some ideas on future projects we want him involved in. Thank you for making our day so great and for capturing the best moments of the day!

We were also concerned because the barn we were having our wedding in had limited reception and no WiFi. He was prepared with a hot-spot and the the reception was seamless. We even have a video of our wedding that we can keep forever. Not to the mention that the pricing was beyond reasonable and his communication was excellent. I really cannot say enough positive things! If you are considering virtual guests, Matthew will make sure you can share your special day with all of your loved ones.
