Reid with Best Made Videos far exceeded our expectations. He was communicative and thorough from the beginning, consistently available via email and very responsive. On the day of our wedding, we were so pleased by his natural ease of working with our photographer and other vendors and family seamlessly and also providing us direction and guidance without issue. He really cared about how myself and my husband were doing throughout the day and took some beautiful images and videos. Would recommend him to anyone needing videography services. His turnaround time for our videos was shockingly fast and his work is beautiful. We’re so happy we booked with him to keep these memories for a lifetime!

What a fun and memorable day with all of your family and friends! I'm so honored you chose me to capture all of your priceless moments and I am even more thrilled that you are so happy with the results, thanks again!!
Reid was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process and perfectly captured our special day. He is a great communicator, professional, and created something we will cherish forever. Having never worked with a videographer before, we didn't know what to expect. Reid seamlessly worked alongside our photographers while never making us feel self-conscious that we were on camera. We really can't recommend Reid and Best Made Videos enough. Thank you so much!!!

It was a fun day for all of your family and friends, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review and for trusting me to help capture your big day, congrats again!!
Reid was super professional and captured all of our key moments despite have a very long a complicated day (Indian ceremony in the morning, western style ceremony in the evening, and Slovak ceremony at night). He ended up coordinating with our photographer ahead of the wedding day which was a pleasant surprise and the two of them worked together to make all our photo+video needs go smoothly. He would often go above and beyond, such as jumping in during family photos to manage guests, and help make sure everyone was smiling and not in the way. We had multiple guests point out what a great energy Reid brought to the whole day! His turn around time for our videos were super quick, and being able to have a full recording of our ceremonies to share with family abroad was amazing. He was also super communicative leading up to, during, and after the wedding so we knew exactly what to expect. Don’t hesitate to book Reid, you really won’t regret it!

It was such a unique a fun event for you, your friends, and your family! Thanks so trusting me to capture such a one-of-a-kind event, I'm glad you liked the videos!
Any questions?
I am so happy I decided to have a videographer to film our special day but even happier it was Reid/Best Made Videos. He was so nice from beginning to end and I really appreciated how flexible and easy going he was throughout the entire process. He listened to what we wanted and made sure it happened. Reid was there to catch every special moment on film, from the small moments to the big. We love how he edited the end video, it was better than we even imagined. We are so happy with it and love showing it off! All my friends and family are so impressed. It’s such a special keepsake from the most important day of your life. Thank you so much Reid for making our happily ever after a memory to last forever.

It was a such a wonderful day and everything worked out so perfectly! Thanks again for trusting me to capture your special memories!!
Reid was great to work with throughout the process of our wedding and made our special day stress free and magical! He made the whole process very easy by providing transparent pricing during the initial discussion, prompt communication throughout the planning process, and amazing experience on the day of. He had a detailed questionnaire that prompted us to talk through things we hadn’t thought about in terms of things we wanted to capture for the video. On the day of, he arrived early and had everything all setup while we were still getting ready. He worked seamlessly well with our photographer (who was directing all the shots) and made it feel like he wasn’t even there while still being able to capture everything that was on our list. Reid finished the video within a week after the wedding and the product was amazing and captured everything that was on our list! We would highly recommend Reid for your wedding photographer!

It was such a fun day for you guys and your families, thanks for letting me capture your wonderful celebration!!
We can’t thank Reid enough for the amazing job he did capturing the most precious moments at our daughter’s wedding. He was professional but very friendly, courteous, compassionate and extremely easy to work with. The videos he produced of the entire wedding day were outstanding !!!!! Thank you Reid for being there with us that day. Your videos are priceless to our family.

Thanks so much for trusting me to capture such an important day for your family, I'm glad we were able to preserve those priceless moments!
I can't stop watching our video from our day! Reid was able to capture all of the special moments from the day and allow us to be able to relive it over and over again! He is super professional and easy to get along with! Not to mention, he has a super quick turn around! Look no further, do yourself a favor and book Reid!
Response from the Vendor on 09/11/2023
What a fun and memorable day! So happy for the two of you and so thankful I got to spend your day with you, thanks again!!
Reid captured the moments that we will be able to revisit forever. At first we were unsure of the expense of a videographer, and our wedding planners advised us to proceed, as we would value hearing the sounds of our loved ones voices for years to come. It was then obvious we should proceed with Best Made Videos.
Reid is professional, and has clearly been doing this work for a long time. Prior to the wedding, he was thorough in his survey about what kind of music we wanted associated with the video, who we should be seen with, and prioritizing which scenes to capture - and he delivered!
Reid was also careful to capture what mattered while staying in the background so our guests could be natural. We love the drone footage of our scenic venue captured before the event, and transitions and sound quality of the video are exceptional.

It was a spectacular day! Thanks again for trusting me to help capture your precious moments, all my love and take care!!
We had such a great experience with Reid. Not only is he very professional, he also has great energy and a great attitude. He did a wonderful job and we love how the final video edits turned out!! Deanna & Jason

Thanks for trusting me to capture your amazing day, so much fun getting to know you and your families! Thanks again!!
Reid from Best Made Videos was so great to work with. He was super responsive with all communication throughout the wedding planning process. He has a really thorough questionnaire that he sends to his couples prior to the wedding to get a sense of what was important to us and what we wanted him to capture and prioritize about our wedding day. He was fun to work with on our wedding day and was able to capture the essence of our wedding with a beautiful, well-made product that we will cherish forever. We got to pick our own music, and once we did that, the turnaround for getting our video was super quick. We would highly recommend him to our family and friends looking for an awesome videographer!
Response from the Vendor on 12/30/2022
It was such a fun time work with both of you before, through your wedding day, and afterward! Thanks so much for all the fun memories, glad I could help capture the love!!
Reid was the perfect videographer for our wedding. From getting to know what was important to us, to the final video reels, everything was personalized and stress free. The videos featured great footage of us and our guests. Reid captured all of our toasts and our ceremony in great detail. Our highlight reel included everything we asked for and more; we had great shots of ourselves and our guests at the reception. The videos captured all the unique touches that we put into our wedding and really highlighted the venue for both the ceremony and the reception. We also did a live stream of our wedding for those who couldn’t make it, and the quality was perfect. There was nothing more we could have asked for in a videographer for our wedding day and we would strongly recommend Reid to anyone looking for someone to record footage of their big day.

It was such a perfectly planned and personalized wedding day and I'm so glad you trusted us to help capture your wonderful memories, thanks for taking the time to leave a review, all my love!!
We were referred to Best Made Videos by our wedding planners. We spent $2,070 for a ceremony live stream and a video guest book. Leading up to our wedding Reid was HANDS DOWN our favorite vendor. He was flexible in working with us on our contract scope, incredibly responsive over email, and had very helpful suggestions along the way. The day of our wedding we even told him he was our favorite vendor because he’s just so darn nice and easy to work with.
Because I really like Reid, I sincerely wish I could say we were happy with the quality of the videos. Unfortunately, that’s just not the case. For the ceremony live stream, there were two big issues: 1) live stream camera angles that highlighted the parking lot rather than the gorgeous greenhouse, trees, or the canal and 2) turning the groom's mic on too soon so that private conversations were live streamed.
For the video guest book, it did not look professional AT ALL. The entries had poor lighting, inconsistent audio, and an ugly background. The video guest book was supposed to have a background in front of a large window with trees and the canal as the backdrop. This information was sent to Reid from our wedding planners 11 days before the wedding. Unfortunately, on our wedding day of there was a miscommunication and Reid set up in a poorly lit corner that prominently featured the parking lot, the thermostat, and the fire alarm. I know that this was only partially his fault (my understanding is that our planners screwed up and directed him to set up there), but it was a huge disappointment and we wish he would have spoken up and adhered to our original game plan. In addition to the lighting and the ugly background, during some of the video guest book entries you can see the videographer adjusting the microphone stand. There were also several audio issues where the microphone (provided by Best Made Videos) appears to cut out halfway through the video entry.
In summary, as much as Reid is the nicest guy and I sincerely wish him the best, I would never trust him to capture once-in-a-lifetime video memories again.
Response from the Vendor on 11/08/2022
Thanks very much for taking the time to leave a review, it was a very memorable day and I’m glad that we could be a part of it.
I’m so sorry to hear your dissatisfaction with your wedding video and livestream, I wish that you would have let me...
know your issues ahead of time so I could have help address these personally.
Your venue necessitates the ceremony livestream to be set up in that way, that is the way we always stream there and is the same way we were set up in the example video I believe I sent you guys prior to booking. I absolutely understand your valid concerns but unfortunately we don’t have a better option, the canal based on location and lighting isn’t really visible from either streaming angle.
As for the guest book, that is where we were directed to be set up by your planner, we also showed you the setup while we were getting ready so if we weren’t in the correct spot, I would have hoped that you would have let us know, I do apologize.
A couple of the guests, I believe, partially disconnected the audio cable from the microphone while they were speaking, which was very much an issue during the video guestbook, and could certainly partially be blamed on equipment malfunction.
As for turning on the microphones too early, I really don’t have any recollection of that I apologize. I know there was some confusion about exactly getting everybody down the aisle alongside your officiant on time, but I don’t believe I intentionally had anything turned too early, it certainly wouldn’t be anything intentional on my end to try the air or broadcast anything that was meant to be private.
As I said, at the top, I really appreciate you guys, allowing us to help capture day, and certainly wish that you would have been more satisfied with the service. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you guys with, thanks again to take care!
Best Made Videos and Reid were absolutely wonderful on our wedding day. They were so great to work with, captured such wonderful content, and were so quick to respond during the planning process. I've already gotten the video footage and it's only been a few weeks! Going through all the clips helped me re-live the wonderful night and also see the little details that I missed!
Response from the Vendor on 09/12/2022
It was such a fun and lovely day! I'm so glad we got to be there to help capture it, thank you so much for trusting us to help preserve your memories! Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review, take care!!
We had a large wedding with 240 people attending at multiple sites throughout Seattle and Best Made Video did an amazing job! Reid was incredibly responsive, attentive to detail, and fun throughout the process. From our first inquiry, to special requests after our wedding, he was always very patient and quick to help us understand our options. Their detailed survey helped us figure out what we wanted to capture and how we wanted to remember our wedding day. We didn't want people to feel like they were being followed around, so we were relieved that Reid was very engaged, but low key, and quick to make our family and friends feel comfortable. Being a gay couple, we also wanted to make sure our vendors (especially photographer and videographer) didn't make heteronormative assumptions or asks of us. Reid was completely inclusive and didn't make us feel at all like we had to play the roles of "bride" and "groom". After the wedding, the turnaround was very quick - only a couple of weeks to get our highlights video, full ceremony, and raw footage. When we asked for a special customized edit of some of the clips, Reid turned it around in a week during peak wedding season. We would definitely recommend Best Made Video for your videography needs.

Thanks for including us in your special day! It was such a fun celebration, I'm so glad that I got to be a part of capturing it!! All my love to you two and your families, thanks again and take care!
We hired Reid very last minute as a videographer for our wedding and it was by far one of the best choices we made. We had originally hired another vendor and had some concerning interactions with them and needed to find a new videographer asap. Reid came highly recommended and by some miracle was available on our day!
He was professional, organized and a breeze to work with! And of course, our video turned out amazing and he had it to us in record time! We are so happy we have a lifelong moments of our special day. We highly recommend Reid for your video needs!!
Response from the Vendor on 08/19/2022
I'm so thrilled that everything work out! Thanks so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review!! Take care!
Reid and his team at Best Made Videos were wonderful and we are very happy we hired them for our wedding. Reid wins by a landslide for quickest vendor to respond in email; he is lighting fast! He did an outstanding job on our wedding video. I wanted specific parts of the toasts to be included, but couldn’t remember the exact. He read my mind and used exactly what I would have picked. In addition to the highlight video, he included the full ceremony and toasts as well as dances and other parts throughout the day. He worked well with our photographer, Joanna Monger - they were a great team!

It was such a perfect day! I'm so glad you guys had such a wonderful celebration and I'm even more thrilled we got to help capture your incredible day! Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review, all my love!!
Matt did an amazing job at our wedding and worked very well in partnership with our photo team. My fiancé and I didn't want a videographer originally because we are both camera shy and thought it would distract from the day and make us uncomfortable, but our parents insisted. Having Matt and the team there was the best thing we would have ever asked for. They made it a comfortable experience and we even forgot for most of the day that the camera was even there. We got a video back very quickly, it was fun to come home from our honeymoon and be able to watch it and reflect on the week we had. I highly recommend Best Made Videos for your wedding.
Response from the Vendor on 06/02/2022
I'm thrilled that everything worked out so well and that you guys had such an incredible day! So fun getting to work with you and help document your wonderful celebration, thanks again!!
Reid is awesome! We hired him to live stream our wedding since we had a lot of family out of state and it was important to me we had a reliable stream. He sent me a YouTube link weeks in advance so everyone was well prepared and I was instantly able to watch the stream after, which was SO nice to watch the next day over breakfast. It was shot beautifully and the audio is so clear… I wasn’t sure it would be worth the money but it really was. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Reid was fun to work with for our wedding! Great person to have around, beautiful video and fast turnaround. Thanks for hanging with us for a couple 2020 cancellations!
Response from the Vendor on 01/11/2022
I'm glad everything worked out and that we were finally able to celebrate your special day! It was a fun and unique wedding and I'm thrilled we were lucky enough to help capture it!
Reid helped to make our wedding so special! He was just amazing to work with (probably the fastest responses from a business I have ever seen!) and so knowledgeable. With the pandemic, he was flexible with our 3 times rescheduled wedding date and very patient. On-time the day of, very professional, never got in the way, and created something we will be able to cherish! The turnaround time for the package was SO fast. If you're looking for a videographer, he's your guy!
Response from the Vendor on 01/03/2022
I'm so thrilled that everything FINALLY came together! It was a great celebration of your love and I'm honored we were able to help capture it all. Take care and all my love!!
Reid was great to work with. He answered all of our questions and helped make this a very easy decision. He was able to capture my entire wedding day from when I started getting ready, our first look, venue shots, and our send off. This was one of the best decisions we made and are grateful that he was able to capture all of our special moments for us to be able to look back on in the years to come. We would highly recommend Best Made Video for your wedding videography!
Response from the Vendor on 12/20/2021
What a FUN day! SO happy we could be there to capture all of the love. Thanks again and take care, all my love to your family!!
Reid was a joy to work with! We used his services twice. The first being a small wedding ceremony during 2020 and then again for our much larger reception in 2021. We are incredibly happy with the finished products he created for us! The style and quality were exactly what we were hoping for and we highly recommend using his videography to capture your event!
Response from the Vendor on 12/02/2021
I'm so glad everything worked out, what a fun celebation x 2!!! Thanks for trusting us to help capture your date, all our love!
Reid is awesome! When we were looking for a wedding videographer we were immediately impressed with the quality and style of Reid’s videos. He was a great communicator leading up to our big day and worked with us to capture and showcase exactly what we were looking for! Reid is very friendly and was a great partner throughout the process and even helped us find a photographer after our original photographer cancelled on us. If you are wondering if it is worth it to hire a videographer it 100% is and we cannot thank Reid enough for all his hard work!
Response from the Vendor on 11/23/2021
It was a fantastic day and I'm SO thrilled that everything worked out as well as it did. Congrats and thanks again for letting us take part in your fun celebration!!!
Thank you Best Made Videos for capturing all the beautiful moments of my son and daughter in law's wedding and reception. We just watched the highlights and full video and we cried and laughed all over again. Best of all we weren't even aware you were videoing during the event!
Response from the Vendor on 10/25/2021
Thanks for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review! I'm so glad your family could enjoy, it was a great day for sure! Thanks again and take care!!
Reid was amazing! We booked only a few weeks out when we realized the grooms family and friends would be able to travel due to restrictions. He was so responsive and helpful! The livestream helped make our far away guests seem close. It meant so much to us!

I'm thrilled everything worked out! Thanks again for trusting us to help capture your big day!!
My now husband and I hired Best Made Videos to not simply video tape our wedding, but stream it for everyone that couldn't attend; especially my family in India. We only had one formal meeting with Reid and Best Made Videos, but the amount of detail and information he got from us about what we wanted for our wedding stream was fantastic. It was really clear how particular he was going to be on our behalf. He was equally particular about informing us of the cost and procedure of everything, as well as what else we were going to get for our money, which included a full hard drive of the entire recording. All things considered, Reid and his team probably ended up being the least stressful part of our wedding day, and the stream looked AMAZING. Watching it back, we got every angle we asked for, and might've been a better watching experience than being there in person. Even in a moment of panic, when we experienced a power surge and the stream cut out for a minute, the Best Made Videos team acted quietly and efficiently to sort things out, and get us up and running again. Everyone that watched only had good things to say, and I couldn't recommend Reid and Best Made Videos more highly.

I'm so glad everything worked out! It was a tricky setup and I'm glad that everything looked and sounded good to your family and friends watching!! Thanks again for trusting us with your big day, take care!
Excellent job!! Fast email responses! Did a great job capturing every little detailed!
Response from the Vendor on 09/02/2021
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and for allowing us to help capture your wedding day! SO much fun and so many incredible memories, thx again!!
Reid and his team are extremely professional and friendly. They put our entire wedding party at ease and helped make the whole process fun. He and his team worked and coordinated very well with all of our other vendors. Reid was willing to step in and lend a hand wherever we needed – he even helped hang our piñata! He setup and maintained the livestream, which made it so easy on our end. It was so special with our pared down wedding – everyone that wasn’t able to attend really felt included. We love our wedding highlights video so much, and we (and our family/friends) have watched it over and over! We can’t recommend Reid enough and look forward to hiring him next time we need a videographer.
Response from the Vendor on 08/04/2021
It was such a great day, I’m so glad that everything worked out and it was so much fun! Congratulations again and thanks for taking the time to leave your review!
Wow. Wow. Wow. Reid and Matt with Best Made Videos completely blew us away! We hired them before the Covid-19 pandemic and ended up having to change our date multiple times due to rescheduling. Reid was responsive and extremely flexible. Fast forward to our wedding day on 7/24/2021 when we met them face to face for the first time. As I was stressing out about the timeline, Reid was able to keep me calm. They captured every important event at the wedding, but managed to do it in a way where all of our guests could still see. Reid had an extremely fast turn around on the highlight video and it was absolutely perfect. My family and I had happy tears through the entire thing and I've probably watched it 10 times already. We are so happy we hired Best Made Videos to capture our special day.
Response from the Vendor on 08/01/2021
It was a long time coming and I'm SO thrilled that everything worked out for you guys. Such an incredible day, I'm honored that we got to be there to help capture your love!! Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, congrats again!!
With my family not able to make it to my own wedding because of the pandemic, livestreaming to them was very important to me. Reid organized our live stream with only a couple of weeks notice and made it easy.
Here's what my brother and remote best man had to say of watching on the livestream:
" It was really well run - clear picture, sounds, multiple angles. It did take the edge off missing out."
Response from the Vendor on 08/01/2021
Glad everything worked out! Thanks for trusting us to help capture your big day!! Congratulations!!
Reid was helpful, kind and professional. He kept in touch during the time leading up to my vow renewal and during the editing process. I’d definitely recommend Best Made Videos and would go back in the future! We both, my husband and I, love our highlight reel and ceremony videos. The editing is beautiful. Thank you so much.
Response from the Vendor on 07/14/2021
It was a fantastic day! Thanks so much for allowing me to help capture it and for taking the time to leave a review!
The last vendor we chose was Best Made Video because we weren't sure whether we wanted a videographer. After viewing some of their work online, we decided to get a videographer and go with Best Made. We definitely made the right choice! Reid was always responsive and flexible when we had to postpone due to COVID-19. They were on time and the quality of the video was amazing. The highlight video was very well put together. They were particularly able to capture the emotion of the moment when the barbershop quartet performed, as it was requested by my wife's father before he passed away. Needless to say we are very happy that we decided to get a videographer and highly recommend Best Made to be your videographer as well!
Response from the Vendor on 07/06/2021
I'm SO glad everything worked out, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. You had a wonderful day and I'm glad we were there to help capture it!!
I found Best Made Videos very last minute, and received a response from Reid within hours of my inquiry letting me know his team was available. Reid was a dream to work with and turned our video around very quickly. Our video is something I will absolutely cherish for the rest of our lives, and I am so happy I get to send it out to all of our friends and relatives who weren't able to make it due to Covid. I highly recommend working with this company!

Thanks so much! I'm so glad everything worked out for you guys and we could help capture your special day! All my love to you and your families, thanks again!!
Reid and Matt were very easy to work and are truly fantastic people! and the videos they made are movie production quality!! Very affordable and professional. It has been so fun to re-live our wedding day. we remembered a lot, but the videos gave us a chance to see the wedding day from each others perspective. the highlight video that provides a short summary of the day has been wonderful to send to family and friends. these videos are one of my favorite keepsakes!
Response from the Vendor on 12/03/2020
I’m so glad you guys had such a great day!! Thanks again for allowing us to help capture all of those fun moments, cheers!!
Reid and his team were wonderful to work with from the start. Reid checked on me more than any of my vendors (and preparing for a pandemic wedding this gave me so much confidence in them even before the big day). My wedding day was horribly planned chaos, with half of the trinkets that needed to be filmed lost, yet Reid and the team rolled with the punches and truly added a calm demeanor to an already stressful day. Pricing was excellent, especially for how involved this company is. The video and audio came out perfect. They had my videos back fast too! I highly recommend Best Made Videos to anyone looking for stress-free videography. Having worked with Reid now, I want to assure anyone looking to book Best Made that he will go above and beyond to make his customers happy. Knowledgeable, experienced, BMVs will not disappoint.

Thanks for such a great review!! I'm so glad everything worked out for you and your family, thanks again for trusting us!!!
If you're considering hiring Reid to handle your special event, I highly recommend it.
Reid did a fantastic job creating an amazing streaming wedding for my daughter.
Every participant felt as if they were a part of the special service. I can't stop watching the recorded event Reid beautifully put together.
Response from the Vendor on 11/30/2020
Thank you so much, I'm SO glad everything worked out!! Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, all my love to you and your family!!
My wife and I cannot recommend Best Made Videos enough! We did not initially plan on hiring a videographer for our wedding. However, COVID-19 happened, and months-and-months of wedding planning was turned on its head. A couple of weeks before our wedding we made the painful decision to significantly downsize the event. Our 150+ person wedding was now down to 30. Meaning, many loved ones would no longer be able to share in our wedding day.
That is when we contacted Reid. During our first conversation, Reid demonstrated empathy and a willingness to get to work on our behalf. Within days, he scheduled a Zoom meeting to get to know us and what we wanted help with. Of primary importance, was live steaming the event so grandparents, aunts/uncles and friends could share in our special day in real-time. Reid confidently assured us he could make this happen, which took so much pressure off my wife and me.
Fast-forward to our wedding day. Reid, and his assistant, were very timely and professional. They were inconspicuous as they set up their equipment and in no time, our wedding was being live streamed on YouTube for our friends and family who were not able to be there with us in person. By all accounts, the live stream worked perfectly. Family and friends were able to see and hear the ceremony without a hitch. Moreover, my wife and I barely even noticed them during the ceremony. They were very discrete.
Reid also recorded the entire ceremony, reception, toasts, etc. He created a fabulous highlight video and provided raw footage that we will be able to relive for years to come.
Thank you so much for everything, Reid. I hope more and more people use your services in the future. I cannot imagine they will regret it.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this kind review! I'm SO glad that everything worked out for you and your family!! Thanks again!!!
Reid was wonderful to work with. With all the craziness of 2020 it was so nice to work with someone who was flexible and kind. Reid did wonderful work and really came through! I am so happy we went with this company.

I'm SO glad that everything worked out, thanks for trusting us to help capture your day. Thanks again and take care!!
Best Made Videos is your choice for wedding event. We did the whole event online and it was live. Reid was a pleasure to work with though the process. Our wedding was challenging to put together due to limitations on gatherings, we had a private ceremony couple weeks prior to the event outdoors. Reid captured it with stills and video. His editing was top notchfor the live event. All of the guests that we invited had rave reviews for the content and presentation! I can recommend + you will be glad you selected Best Made Video.
Response from the Vendor on 10/16/2020
It was such a fun day, I'm so glad everything worked out and we were able to share your event virtually for people to attend/watch. Thanks again!!
Hiring a videographer for our wedding day was a nonnegotiable for us. We absolutely needed to have some of our most important and treasured memories on tape. Another non negotiable was that Reid and Best Made Videos would be the one to capture our big day. Reid is a true professional and he checks all the boxes of what it takes to perfectly execute: his response time is immediate, he knows exactly what he is doing because he has loads of experience, he is confident in his work, he is a well-respected member of the wedding industry, he is flexible, a great communicator – need I continue? Above all else, Reid truly cares about the couples he works with, their individual needs, and ensuring he delivers a product they will love; I know this because it was my experience in working with Reid. Your wedding day is unlike any other day, that’s why it is so so so important to hire someone like Reid to perfectly capture your most valued and cherished memories. Thank you so much Reid for all your hard work and everything you did for us!

Thanks for allowing us to help capture your special day, and thanks for this great review! All my love to you guys!!!
Reid was really awesome to work with! He is very nice and helpful!! I’m a very indecisive person, and with all the changes due to covid, I was struggling!! He was so patient with me though, which helped!!
We received our finished video quickly after the wedding which was really nice!! My husband and I loved our video and can’t wait to show our family and friends!

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, I'm so glad we got to help capture your day!! Take care and all my love!!!
We hired Best Made Videos for our wedding and we were very happy with the results. Reid met with us via zoom beforehand (due to COVID) to discuss what we'd like, and he was very responsive and proactive in keeping us updated. He showed up on time, was very professional and friendly, and was quick to make excellent videos. We couldn't be happier!
Response from the Vendor on 10/07/2020
I'm so glad everything worked out!! Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, congrats again on your wedding and all my love!!!
Reid was FANTASTIC! We hired him to livestream our small wedding (thanks, COVID-19!) to our family and friends and we are so glad we had his professional touch. He made sure the elements we had, like a slideshow and a remote Maid of Honor doing a reading, flowed perfectly with the livestream and the wedding overall. All the folx viewing remotely commented on the quality of the stream (two cameras, he worked with the DJ to have a mic set up) and how they felt they were there with us. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Reid, it was a pleasure and now I have the video of our big day to keep forever!
Response from the Vendor on 10/03/2020

Best Made Videos made everything so easy on us as we prepared to get married. They are very communicative, professional, friendly, understanding, and the quality of their product is amazing. Please choose them as you will not be sorry!!! Thanks so much, Best Made!

I'm so glad everything worked out and we were able to capture your special day! Thanks again for asking us to be a part of it!!
We love working with Reid and his Team from Best Made Videos. As a wedding planner, I truly appreciate how quick Reid is in responding to emails and any questions we or our clients have. When it comes to wedding day, Reid and his team are punctual, professional, detail-oriented, but most importantly fun to work with. What we love best is how quick he is in editing and returning a high-quality wedding film and we love each and every one of them.
Response from the Vendor on 04/05/2020
We love working with you guys too!! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave this review! I hope you all are staying safe! Chat soon!!!
We had a great experience with Best Made Videos! This review is long overdue but we got married 7/2019 and had a great experience with Reid and his team. From my initial contact with Reid he was very responsive and made sure to touch base with us throughout the planning process to make sure we were on track. On the actual wedding day we had such a great time - endless laughs and helped to put us at ease on our big day! The edited highlight reel was wonderful and really captured the spirit of the day. One of the things that I appreciated the most about Best Made Videos was that we received ALL of the video that was shot that day. This was absolutely priceless to get to look back on so many moments- especially some amazing dance floor videos!
Response from the Vendor on 04/03/2020
It was such an incredible day! Thanks again for letting us hang out with you guys and thanks so much for taking the time to leave this review!! All my love to you guys!!!
Last minute we booked Reid and company to capture our wedding. Let’s just say that we are overjoyed by the results! We now have a wedding video (that we’ve watched easily 20 times already) which captures the essence of what our celebration of marriage was. The whole big day can be a huge blur, thus, a bit hard to remember all those juicy details you worked so diligently to plan. In retrospect we couldn’t be more happy with how our experience with Best Made Videos transpired. Thanks again :)
Response from the Vendor on 03/11/2020
I’m SO glad that everything worked out. It was such a fantastic day!! Thanks again for everything and for taking the time to leave a review. All my love to you guys!!!
We worked with best made videos for our wedding weekend which included a 2 day wedding (traditional & western). The overall output was just what we were looking for. Watching the video products created is like re-living the big day! Very easy to work with and you could tell Reid put in the preparation in order to deliver on what was promised. He was very responsive, flexible, and solution oriented. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a videographer.
Response from the Vendor on 03/03/2020
It was SUCH an incredible weekend!! So glad we could help capture all of the memories for you two!! Thx again for everything!!!
We are very happy that we chose Best Made Videos for our wedding! Communication was a breeze before the wedding, he captured everything that we wanted, and delivered the videos so incredibly quickly - we were still on our honeymoon! We absolutely love our highlight video and are so happy with Reid's unique style that perfectly captured the vibe we were going for. He seemed like a great guy when we met on the wedding day (even showed up a little early!), but we didn't interact much at all, which is exactly what we want from a videographer...film everything perfectly without being intrusive or drawing attention :). We would highly recommend Reid to anyone!
Response from the Vendor on 02/29/2020
It was such an incredibly fun day! Thanks again for choosing us to help capture your memories and thanks for taking the time to leave a review!!
Reid is a great vendor to work with! He is sooo prompt, professional, fun, knows what he is doing, and will create a beautiful video to capture your special day! He is a professional through and through--such quick turnaround time on the video, and we are so grateful that we booked a videographer! He was great at blending into the background, but also getting the good shots. Follow everyone's advice and book a videographer! You will NOT regret it!
Response from the Vendor on 12/24/2019
I am so glad that we had the opportunity to spend your special day together! Thanks again for everything and for taking the time to leave this review!!!
We're so glad we hired Reid! Our wedding video is wonderful and not corny or cringy like I'd feared before hiring someone. He was extremely professional and stayed even longer than we'd asked for.
Response from the Vendor on 12/07/2019
I’m SO glad everything worked out!! Thanks again for trusting us to capture your special day!! Thanks again!!
What is there to say about Best Made Videos....well to start, let’s just say that they’re simply AWESOME AND AMAZING. When my husband and I were looking for a videographer for our wedding, we had reached out to Reid and Best Made Videos due to a a plethora of recommendations that we had received. From the moment that we sent Reid an email, he was oh so responsive and that was something that we really appreciated. Communication with Reid was very easy and he was very helpful with answering our questions! On the wedding day, Reid and his team were there right on time, if not earlier than expected and ready to shoot our wedding. We received our video about a week later and it was beautifully put together! Reid and Best Made Videos have been wonderful to work with and we recommend them to everyone! Book them! You don’t be disappointed!!
Response from the Vendor on 10/31/2019
It was SUCH a fun wedding day! Such a long time coming I’m so glad that everything worked out so well!! Thanks for all the laughs and good times and for taking the time to write this review!!
I've had the pleasure of meeting Reid and his team during the Seattle wedding show last January. Since our first conversations I knew I would be in great hands. He was very communicative, detailed on what I should expect, and professional. On our wedding day he had a team of 3 come and capture every special part of the wedding. Within a few weeks we had our video completed and sent to us with a link we could share to whomever we wanted. It was a great video and captured perfectly! We highly recommend Reid and his team.
Response from the Vendor on 10/30/2019
It was such a fun day with so much love and so many laughs!! Thanks again for letting us help capture your memories! So glad you can have them for years and years to come!! Thanks for taking the time to leave this review!!!
After I got engaged to my now husband, so many people told me to hire a videographer to capture our wedding day; this was the best advice we could have taken! Hiring Best Made Videos was the best choice we made though! Reid was absolutely amazing in capturing the whole day, from every angle. We had an outdoor wedding in the a forested area, and Reid did amazing in capturing all of the backdrops we were fortunate enough to have.
My husband and I enjoy watching all of the footage from our special day together and laughing at all of the little moments we missed when the camera was rolling and we will always cherish the memories we are able to have forever!!
Response from the Vendor on 10/25/2019
It was SO much fun getting to spend the day with you two!! Thanks again for all the laughs and I'm so glad to hear how much you guys love your wedding video. Thanks and all my love!!!
Extremely Satisfied
We found Reid and Best Made Videos online after reading glowing reviews, and our experience was equally positive. Reid was happy to come to our house for a brief in-person meeting, and filled us in on all the details. Throughout the whole process, Reid was extremely responsive to emails, answering any questions we had promptly.
Reid kept in close contact with us in the week leading up to the wedding, including doing a walkthrough of our venue with us and our photographer. This was important to us and made us feel at ease about the videography, amidst all the stress and chaos which comes the week before your wedding.
Himself and his assistant came to the houses in which my wife and I were getting ready, and got some great footage early on. At the venue, they coordinated very well with our photographers, and got excellent footage, without it ever feeling like they were getting in the way.
We took a little long to select the music for our video, but there was no pressure to get this done faster, and once we had selected some songs, the final edits were ready very quickly. We were thrilled with the results. We loved the artistic flair in our highlights video, which included a hilarious blooper reel of myself and my best man attempting, and mostly failing, to tie our ties when getting ready.
We would absolutely recommend Reid and BMV to anyone looking to hire a videographer for their wedding.
Response from the Vendor on 10/14/2019
You guys had such a FUN and memorable wedding day!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an incredible review. I will always cherish getting to spend the day with you two, thanks again and all my love!!
We weren't planning on hiring a videographer but ran across Reid's videos on youtube and really enjoyed his style. We made the right decision in hiring him. He is very responsive and informative. We scheduled an initial phone consultation and ended up booking Reid for our wedding.
Close to the day of, Reid made sure to follow up with us several times. This put us at ease. Reid promptly showed up at the venue with his 2nd videographer, Joel and introduced himself. He was like an old friend. Reid is professional, easy to talk to, work with, and has a wonderful sense of humor. Not to mention, he worked quite well with our photographers.
We were very surprised at the quick turnaround with all the videos. We really enjoyed the highlight, the longer video, and the ability to download snippets of all the videos he took. There were so many little events we didn't see or notice. Photos of our special day are one thing but adding video really captures the day.
Reid is active on his social media accounts. I highly recommend following him on his Instagram because it's amusing to watch him journal the day's events leading up to our wedding -- from him getting gas, to coffee, to the traffic he dealt with, etc. I highly recommend Reid!
Response from the Vendor on 10/05/2019
I am so glad that you guys decided to hire a wedding videographer, and I am even more excited that it was us!!! Lol. Thanks again for the fun day, you two were a joy to work with. All my love!! Thanks for such an incredible review!!!
Reid helped us with our recent wedding up at Cle Elum in Washington. We had a great experience working with them from start to finish. Communication was timely both in responses to our messages and notifying us of any changes in the weeks leading up to the wedding. The final highlight video was absolutely gorgeous and blew us away. They were courteous all day as we moved around from getting ready video to bridal party photo shoot, through first look, and the wedding and beyond. I would highly recommend using Best Made Video for all of your videography needs.
Response from the Vendor on 09/16/2019
It was an incredible day!! Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review. I’m so glad everything worked out and that we could be there for you guys! Thanks again!!
Reid is awesome! He was upbeat and engaged with us throughout the whole process. Before, during, and after our wedding he was very personable and easy to work with. On top of all that, the quality of his work is excellent. We absolutely love our video!!! It is beyond perfect! We also got the raw footage which is filled with valuable memories. We HIGHLY recommend using Reid as your videographer!! You won't be disappointed!
Response from the Vendor on 09/11/2019
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave this amazing review. I’m so glad that we all met at the Seattle Wedding Show and that I had the opportunity to capture your amazing day. Thanks again for all the laughs!!
Reid came to be our wedding videographer at Rosehill in Mukilteo on August 11. I found him because I posted my wedding needs/details on a Facebook group to which he reached out and I had a videographer within the day! He was very responsive via email so it made the process that much easier. As others have said, he is incredibly organized and on top of it! I knew I could count on him to be reliable and was so excited to have someone so highly rated helping us document our big day.
The day of, Reid helped the bridal party and us to feel comfortable, know what we were doing, and took a variety of shots. He also helped us figure out the typical traditional things (ie feeding e/o cake and the garter toss) haha!
Reid also finished our video literally within like 3 days!!! And I couldn't have been happier with it. My whole family had a great time sitting and re-watching the toasts and highlight videos. A highlight video like this really helps you re-live the day, because it goes by so fast! I'm incredibly thankful that we made the decision to have a videographer and that Reid made it happen for us. My grandma, who was not able to make it last minute due to health issues, teared up watching the videos and it meant so much that I got to show her most of the ceremony/highlights.
Reid, THANK YOU for making this whole process so easy, for being so organized, and for creating a beautiful video for us!
Response from the Vendor on 09/06/2019
It was such a pleasure getting to spend your wedding day with you two! I am so glad we could help capture the memories so you can enjoy them for years to come! Thanks again for everything, all my love to you two!!!
Working with Reid was the best decision I could have made! He emails you back RIGHT AWAY, ALL THE TIME! I am not kidding you guys-there will be no worrying, no stressing, no negativity if you work with Reid. He will take care of it all-just as long as you provide the information : ) His team is amazing, the videos are SPECTACULAR! the quality-wow! I am in awe. I can't wait to watch these videos for the rest of my life! Absolutely amazing, you won't regret BEST MADE VIDEOS!!!
Response from the Vendor on 08/29/2019
Thanks for taking the time to write a review, it was such a fun day!! So glad we got to work with you guys and that everything turned out so spectacularly. It was the perfect wedding day, so glad we were there to help capture it!!!
My husband was more excited about hiring a videographer for our wedding than I was. The videos I’ve seen until then were just too hokey. Then I came upon videos made by Reid and company and I thought this might actually work. Reid is a complete professional and incredibly punctual and responsive (freakishly responsive, he’ll answer your emails within a minute). Matt, Reid’s partner, actually shot our wedding. He and his partner were very easy to work with and not intrusive. We wanted them to capture a lot of candids and they did so wonderfully. When we sent our wedding highlight video to our family, my father-in-law said the following
“Form, Substance, Setting, Audio, Video. All Fantastic.” It was a hit! Reid et al. are the best--hire them!
Response from the Vendor on 08/25/2019
It was such a fun day and an amazing gathering of all of the important people in your lives. I’m thrilled we were able to capture all the love for you two. Thanks again!!
We planned a somewhat last minute wedding, 3 1/2 months out, which could have been a nightmare...however, Reid made it a dream!! After calling countless videographers who were booked and/or "had to get back to me," but never did, Reid answered with a cheery voice and a calming presence. He assured me that it was all going to be great even with our compressed timeline, and he was not wrong! Things all fell into place beautifully and we had the most wonderful day!! Best of all, Reid and his team were able to capture everything perfectly and put together the most beautiful video for us to relive the magic over and over again. I couldn't imagine our day without him and am so thankful we trusted such a great person, professional, and now friend with this very important task:) You can't go wrong with BestMadeVideos!!! 10000% recommended to anyone who is looking for a personally tailored professional wedding video to cherish for a lifetime!
Response from the Vendor on 08/21/2019
It was SUCH a fun day. I’m so glad we got to share it with you and capture all of the love, laughs, and FUN! I wish you two all my love on your adventures ahead. Thanks again!!
I cannot rave enough about Best Made Videos!!! I came across their company when I was at the Seattle wedding show, and after having attended the event, was doing my due diligence and checking out samples for allllll the videographer's various websites. I checked out Best Made Video's website and within 5 minutes I was sold. I was literally tearing up watching random stranger's wedding videos because they were SO well done. Not only are Reid and his team incredibly talented and phenomenal at their craft, he was hands down the most responsive vendor I've ever met. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Reid and Best Made Video's enough - as everyone says, the day goes by unbelievably fast and it's SO special to have this memory. I can't say enough good things about this company - totally worth the investment!
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2019
It was SUCH a fun day! Thanks again for letting us help capture your wonderful love story!!! WOOHOO!!!
Your search is done...hire Reid! When I was planning my wedding last year I initially decided not to have a videographer. After talking to my sister about it and hearing that not having one at her wedding is the biggest thing she regrets, I changed my mind. I could not be happier with my decision and I owe that to Reid and his team. They captured moments I would never have seen and created a video that brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it. Reid's editing and the way he included our vows through out the video exceeded my expectations. Now, as we approach our one year anniversary I can not wait to watch our video and relive our day! Unfortunately for my sister, Reid's beautiful video reinforced her regret.
Response from the Vendor on 01/14/2019
I will always remember the joy and fun that we had on your wedding day!! Happy (almost) one year and thanks for the amazing review!!!
We used Best Made Videos to record our October 2018 wedding in Bellevue WA. My wife and I live in Dallas TX, so all of our planning was done remotely. Reid was very accommodating. On the day of, Reid and his team were AWESOME and worked so well with our photographer that they could have been mistaken for being the same company! They both helped each other out to ensure that both pictures and video of each part of the day would turn out perfect. In the end, the most important thing is how the video turns out and ours is PERFECT. My wife cries every time we watch it! It does a great job of capturing the mood and energy of each part of the night. Its also nice to get the full raw video of the ceremony, speeches, etc. Reid - thank you for being such an awesome part of our day and providing us with a video we can cherish!
Response from the Vendor on 01/06/2019
It was such a great day! Thanks again for all of the fun and the GREAT memories!!! All my love to you two and your families!
Congrats again!!!
We were so grateful we decided to pick Best Made videos to capture our special day. We absolutely love our wedding video, and have watched it so many times. Reid’s team was great and worked seamlessly with our photographer to catch all the best shots. We would pick them 10/10 times for any future video needs. Thanks Reid and team for doing such a great job!
Response from the Vendor on 12/26/2018
It was such a great time, I'm so glad it worked out for everyone. Thanks again for all of the joy and I wish you both lots of love!!!
Couldn’t be happier with Best Made Videos! Reid and Jeff were awesome to work with day of and brought great energy to the day. Reid was super responsive throughout and delivered amazing work quicker than expected! Do not make the mistake of not having a videographer for your wedding. We initially didn’t plan on having one, but it was the best decision we made to book; the videos and moments captured allows you to look back and re-live all the wonderful memories of your big day. Best Made Videos is highly recommended and offers amazing value!
Response from the Vendor on 11/11/2018
You guys rock! Thanks again for all of the love and joy. We will remember your special day always!!
I wish all my vendors were a fraction as responsive as Reid was. At all hours of the day, he'd always write back within minutes! It was nice to feel heard and not be anxious about waiting days for a response. We were lucky enough to get a bit of a deal for his services after attending Weddings in Woodinville and really appreciated the fact that he was willing to include his 2-hour travel time to and from our venue in his overall package pricing.
Reid arrived early on our wedding day and didn't waste a second getting to work. I really appreciated his attention to detail. He would stop a shot to fix my hair or someone's posture. Having his second shooter there was a huge help. Reid was incredibly professional throughout this whole process and you can tell what a hard worker he is.
I have two pieces of advice for anyone looking for a videographer: prepare yourself that the music you can use for your video has to be licensed, so I would assume each vendor has their own sites/songs that can be used. This never occurred to me so was a bit stressful when it came time to pick from thousands of songs I'd never heard before when I had a mountain of other stressful to-do's to tackle. Reid gave plenty of time to pick songs and you can even wait until after your wedding day to do so, but I wanted to ensure I wasn't doing anything on my end to tie up the delivery of our video. My other piece of advice is to do your homework and ask questions about what your final video will look like. I think I had watched too many other couple's videos from other vendors so was surprised when our highlight video came back with our full ceremony vows instead of bits and pieces. He had specified to choose an instrumental song if you wanted your ceremony audio included, but I should have clarified what exactly that meant so I could have been prepared. Unfortunately there's no way to see a "draft" version to make major edits, so be sure to watch plenty of your videographer's work ahead of time and specify anything you do or don't want to see. The end product was nice, just not quite what we were expecting. But family and friends loved it and we are so glad to have these memories captured to re-watch for a lifetime!
Response from the Vendor on 11/01/2018
It was an absolute delight to spend your wedding day with you two. I wish you lots of love and years of happiness! Thanks again!!
Reid was absolutely amazing! He was on top of everything, checking in as the day got closer and making sure to get as many details about us as possible. He was so great to work with and made everything so easy for me and my husband. I am so happy with everything he did for us and I still look back at our highlight video and tear up, so does my husband!! I highly recommend using this company!
Response from the Vendor on 10/26/2018
It was a great day and I’m so glad that everything worked out great for you guys!!! Thanks again!!
Reid was so incredible. From day one, he responded to my inquiries immediately and set the expectations to avoid any surprises. As we got closer to the big day, he sent questionnaires that actually helped me plan the wedding better by asking me which events I wanted captured and prioritize their importance. The day of, he really came through! He showed up earlier than requested, knew the general timeline and was able to set up real quick and easy. He got along really well with my photographer and it didn't seem like either one dominated the other. He had great ideas for shots, poses and locations and was just incredibly kind, charismatic and really enjoys what he does. That's exactly what we needed, thanks so much, Reid!
Response from the Vendor on 10/24/2018
It was a great day! Thanks for letting me tag along and enjoy all of the fun!!! I wish you two years of love and happiness!!!
Reid is seriously the best! Both times we met (consultation and wedding day) he was upbeat, friendly, and showed a creative and authentic approach to his work. We both loved his ideas for showcasing our perfect day and are beyond thrilled with the results. Reid (and his fellow videographer) captured our magical day with everything we wanted. They were up for anything and good with improvising when needed. They were willing to help out with non videographer related things when needed (we had a speaker issue during dinner and announcements) and were very communicative throughout the entire process even post wedding (Reid is super quick to respond via email and social media). Thank you Reid and Best Made Videos for the amazing video! We will cherish it forever :)
Response from the Vendor on 10/21/2018
Woohoo!! You guys are great. Thanks so much!!!
Working with Reid at Best Made Video's was one of the best decisions we made! We are so thankful we have a video of this amazing day in our lives. They say time flies when you're having fun and that is so true. With Reid capturing this day for us, we're able to see those special moments with our family and friends again. We also get to see some of the moments we missed like the reactions during the ceremony, all our guests mingling during cocktail hour, watching our first dance, and late-night dance battles. One of my bridemaids literally said "That is the best wedding video I have EVER seen!" A family member also told me within seconds of watching the video they were overcome with emotion in their heart.
Reid doesn't just put a bunch of video clips and music together he does an incredible job telling the story of the greatest day of our lives.
A very important thing too, is how easy it is to work with Reid. He reached out to us to check-in and was very responsive to all our questions. We were able to "meet" with him over Facetime when we were first looking for a videographer. Our wedding was in Bellingham, several miles north of Seattle where Reid is based, but he did an excellent job communicating with our wedding coordinator and photographer so that we didn't have to worry about timelines. Everything flowed well that day and Reid and his assistant Jeff did a great job capturing moments between us, our wedding party, and family and friends. Reid is such a friendly and easy-going person with a lot of skill that it felt very natural to have him around to capture the day.
But it doesn't end there! Reid did an excellent job communicating and getting clips and the final video edit to us quickly. He continues to be excited for us and celebrate our special day with thoughtful posts and messages. That is something we really appreciate since he was so close to us all day for this tremendous life event. We highly recommend working with and getting to know Reid!
Response from the Vendor on 10/19/2018
WOW! What a great review, I feel so blessed!!! Truly thank you again for letting me be a part of your special day!
We wanted to have all the video clips from our day to remember it in full color. Having photos is great, but there's something really special about having the voices and laughter documented. Some may argue, but I now believe more than ever that hiring a videographer is just as important as a photographer. Both are so integral in capture the different aspects of your day. Reid was fantastic! By far our most responsive vendor and always willing to go above and beyond. He was a pleasure to be around and brought a stress free feel to the day. We absolutely love our video and have watched it so many times already--a treasured memory of the day. Could not recommend enough!
