We have nothing but incredibly good things to say about Sebastien and his work. There aren’t very many people in the world anymore that you can say are genuine, but Sebastien was nothing short of it. As soon as we met him and talked, our personalities all meshed well and felt like it was meant to be to have him film our wedding. We are a very easy going couple and did not have any expectations or requests for what we wanted or needed exactly, so we decided to leave it up to Sebastien as an artist to create something special and he did just that.
It was very easy to communicate with him via email and phone. There was never a time where we felt like it was hard to get ahold of him. He created a proposal for us that was very easy to access which also made it really easy to make payment. After the wedding we realized that we forgot to ask for the raw footage, so we emailed Sebastien and he got back to us right away to let us know he could still send it!
The day of the wedding Sebastien arrived promptly with a smile on his face per usual and made everyone feel so comfortable. Our photographer was someone he had previously worked with so if you need any help with finding a photographer Sebastian surely has someone good in mind. We found Sebastien through our photographer so it all worked out perfectly. The entire wedding was an absolute blast and he definitely tagged along and partied with us. We even went as far as asking if he’d like to stay after filming to continue having a good time (: We caught him laughing and joking with us and my family and friends, as if he had known us for a life time. There was no stress in any of the filming it all felt very easy and natural because he made it that way. He truly was an amazing person to work with and we would recommend him every time to anyone in need. Again, thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for people on their special day!

Sebastien is truly one of the best wedding videographers we’ve had the pleasure of working with—and coming from a DJing family, I’ve seen my fair share of wedding professionals. Despite being a one-man team, he seemed to be everywhere at once, capturing every important moment with precision and artistry. The videos he created aren’t just recordings; they’re timeless keepsakes that transport us back to our special day every time we watch them. It was an absolute pleasure working with Sebastien, and we wholeheartedly recommend him and Interstellar Films to anyone looking to beautifully preserve their most cherished moments.

Sebastien is fantastic to work with. Attentive, accommodating, kind, skilled, has great vision, and the final wedding footage he delivered absolutely blew us away! From our initial consultation, Sebastien took the time to truly understand our hopes for capturing our special day. He was incredibly responsive to all our questions and requests, making the entire planning process feel seamless and stress-free.
On the day of the wedding, Sebastien was a calm and professional presence. He worked discreetly, capturing all the important moments without ever feeling intrusive, and worked really well with the photographer, trading off timing and positions without issue and without having to “repeat” moments. His artistic eye and attention to detail were evident throughout the day, and we knew we were in capable hands.
Sebastien perfectly captured the emotion, joy, and love of our wedding day. We've watched the videos he delivered us countless times and each time we are transported back to that magical day. If you are looking for a talented and dedicated wedding videographer who will go above and beyond to create a stunning keepsake of your special day, look no further than Sebastien! We wholeheartedly recommend him and are so grateful for the incredible job he did.

We worked with Interstellar Films for our wedding day and we couldn’t be happier!!! Sebastien captured our day so beautifully, bringing every emotion, laugh, and special moment to life. From the very beginning, he was professional, kind, and so easy to work with. On the wedding day, he made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and blended seamlessly into the moment, allowing everything to unfold organically.
Watching our videos felt like reliving the best day of our lives all over again. The quality, storytelling, and attention to detail were beyond our expectations. We are so grateful to have these memories to cherish forever.

From our very first phone call, we knew Sebastien was the perfect choice as our videographer. His calming presence throughout the chaos that weddings can bring—both during planning and on the big day—was exactly what we needed. He took the time to understand our story, personalities, likes, dislikes, special moments, and family history, all for a reason. Working with him felt like working with an old friend.
We had a few specific shot requests, but mostly, we asked for something timeless and elegant while giving Sebastien the creative freedom to work his magic. On our wedding day, I was anxious and stressed, but Sebastien's patience and care helped ground me. Despite a bit of chaos, he remained poised and calm. He blended in so seamlessly that there were moments when I forgot he was even a vendor.
We didn’t want stuffy or unnatural footage. Instead, we had a blast filming spontaneous scenes—running, walking, dancing, and more—around our venue. I had high expectations based on the samples I’d seen, but nothing prepared me for what we received. To say we were blown away is an understatement. Our wedding film is not just a video—it’s a story. Every shot, voice-over, song, and transition was absolutely flawless. Honestly, it looks like something straight out of a movie.
Those dreamy wedding videos you see on social media always seemed like a high-priced fantasy, but Sebastien delivered exactly that. Our video captured every aspect of our wedding day and our love for each other and our guests in such a beautiful, thoughtful, and artistic way.
I can't recommend Sebastien enough. I am beyond grateful to have these memories captured so incredibly. His work is truly exceptional. Five stars doesn’t even begin to cover the quality and craftsmanship of his work.

We interviewed several videographers before choosing to work with Interstellar Films. My conversation with Sebastien gave me the impression that he is very passionate about the work he does. Watching other videos he has produced, showed his attention to detail and an uncanny ability to bring out the connection between a couple and their family/friends.
When we received our video after post production, it was amazing. The reason I wanted a video is the first place was to have something to share with family and friends that were unable to attend our special day. I feel like Interstellar was able to capture our emotions and show the joy we all experienced that day.
The aerial shots of the coastline really brought out the beauty of our venue. Interstellar Films’s ability to use drones in their production really sets them apart from other vendors. The high quality of the images, the sound - everything was professional and reflected Interstellar Films standards.
We love our wedding videos, our family and friends have enjoyed seeing our big day. These are videos that we will continue to watch over the years, the work really captured our love, our connection, our family/friends and all of the beautiful emotions of our wedding day.
Thank you Interstellar Films -

My daughter and her fiancé chose to marry in California but lived out of state for work. As the mother of the bride living in California, I assisted by vetting vendors. I set out to find a videographer and wanted a great one as my future son-in-law is a decerning photographer, thus I knew he would share my wish to hire a firm that could make an exquisite cinematic story.
The couple chose Nestldown as the venue and due to the property’s vastness, we believed hiring a videographer with experience photographing this location made sense. I started with the venue’s preferred videographer list, reviewing for each videographer provided, websites and Instagram posts filmed at Nestldown. When I got to Interstellar Films I became immediately interested, their website was clean and modern, and the Instagram shorts films were so captivating I began watching all their videos. What attracted my attention was how Sebastien Manceau, owner of Interstellar Films can create videos with a very personal storytelling style, using intimate moments for each couple using nuances, and creative style that display the unique connection and energy that exists between the couple and their friends/family. Setting up a first call with Sebastien was simple, and I was happy to find the wedding date was still available on his calendar. He took the time to explain the different packages and listened as I conveyed the artsy feel, I hoped the videos would include. Furthermore, he understood that I wanted these videos to show a melding of two families and cultures (my son-in-law and his family are from El Salvador). On the day of the wedding, Sebastien arrived on time, had his equipment in hand, and was the ultimate professional. He made everyone immediately comfortable with his warm personality and calm demeanor. Collaborating with our photographer, Chloe Ramirez, he captured the most important parts of the day, the vows, speeches, and candid looks, and created films that are an absolute joy to watch. I am particularly pleased we selected the package which included the teaser film, it is super creative and can be shared via email or on Instagram.
We highly recommend Sebastien Manceau and Interstellar Films. Sebastien provides fantastic service from start to finish. The couple is thrilled to have these quality videos to remember their day.
Hiring Sebastien Interstellar Films was the perfect decision. Do not hesitate, book Interstellar Films if they are available.

My partner and I had debated for a while over whether we wanted to hire a videographer for our wedding. I am an extremely picky person, which made choosing vendors for our wedding all the more difficult. We ultimately decided that having a videographer would be worth the cost. I probably looked at over 100 different videographer’s, before I came across Interstellar.
We hopped on a call with Sebastien and could immediately tell that he’s incredibly passionate about what he does. Hiring him was a no brainer. He puts so much thought into the process, and it was completely stress free.
On the wedding day, Sebastien was there, and also not there, in all the ways we could have asked for. It never felt like he was overbearing, or like there was a camera in our face. He was involved in a way that felt comfortable, considerate, and respectful. I hate hugging people, and I gladly hugged him at the end of the night, haha. There were parts of the day where my husband was visibly stressed, and Sebastien was always there to offer words of comfort, which put my husband at ease.
After the wedding, Sebastien was very communicative regarding the completion date of the videos, which we appreciated. Once we received all of the videos, we were so blown away. All of his work exceeded any expectations we had. We’re so glad that we decided to book with Interstellar, because now we have several beautiful videos that we can watch on our anniversary, for years to come.
Simply put, Sebastien is a man written by a woman - he’s a joy to be around, and if you’re getting married, you need to book him immediately! He’s the ultimate hype man.

Sebastien is extremely professional, and has been helpful with shaping how we wanted our wedding film to be. He worked very well with our photographers and coordinator and was very flexible throughout the wedding day. He went with the flow of our wedding day and always made sure to keep us comfortable with all the shots that were taken.
The final wedding films were very well done and we loved the final product. He was very communicative and fast to respond when we asked for revisions as well. We would highly recommend Sebastien to our friends!

My husband and I got married in April 2024 and had the pleasure of working with Sebastien! We were back and forth on whether we wanted video for our wedding, and honestly I am SO happy that we did!! Sebastien did such an amazing job at capturing our special day. We requested for him to record a fun “NFL game day” video of the groom and groomsmen walking into the venue before getting ready and he exceeded our expectations! The best part about having Sebastian as our wedding videographer is how he utilizes advanced technology to send me my wedding video. It wasn’t sent just as a clip in my email for me to download… he sent it in a way where I have an app on my phone Home Screen! This is so convenient because I don’t have to spend time looking through my files on my computer just to bring up my video. He also separated the video in categories for me, so if I’m looking for speeches, it’s super accessible! I love the convenience of being able to watch my wedding videos anytime I want right from my phone! Thank you so much Sebastien for creating lifelong memories for my husband and I!! I truly cannot thank you enough!!!

Working with Sebastien was a dream!! His professionalism, care for the us, camera quality, candid shots throughout the day, the way he made us feel comfortable, and having multiple angles of almost every shot are just a few of the reasons we would highly recommend him. The audio was clear, he made sure to capture all the right lighting, and he focused on all the details big and small. Also, we loved how our vow audio and the speeches were in the background of some shots, which added to the perfect flow of our wedding video. We get to relive our day because of him!

Sebastien and his team was everything we were hoping for and more! Not only did Interstellar seamlessly integrated to our day of the wedding but helped us really take in our special day. I know it isn't easy to be present all day with a crazy schedule but sitting down and working with him made us feel comfortable that we were in good hands and watching our video just feels like we're reliving the day over and over, seeing all the details we weren't able to see. Can't not say enough how much it meant to us and I'm sure even our guests that they added so much more to be a part of our wedding. We knew right away we wanted to work with them and it was the best and easiest choice we made.

There are no words to describe how amazing it was working with Sebastien. He NAILED IT! Our videos turned out amazing and he absolutely exceeded expectations. Everything was perfect: the clips he chose, the music, the overall vibe. From the first time we chatted with him he was so clear, communicative and professional. Working with him on the day of the wedding was also a breeze. You really felt like you were working with a pro and we felt super comfortable around him and had fun spending time with him. He didn't let any moments go to waste. He made use of even the every single moment even the time it takes for us to walk from one photo spot to the next was a potential shot for him. We couldn't have asked for a better videographer to capture such an important day for us.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Sebastien and the team at Interstellar Films. They were an absolute dream to work with from start to finish! From the very beginning, Sebastien was exceptionally responsive, addressing every question we had with care and attention, ensuring we felt confident and prepared leading up to our wedding day. We also appreciated how proactive he was in communicating and working with our other vendors and coordinators.
You could tell they truly cared about capturing every moment of our special day. On the day of the wedding, we worked with Brian and Katie who were friendly and professional, making us feel completely at ease. Without being intrusive, they did a remarkable job capturing candid moments while also giving great suggestions on posing that we appreciated. They kept the energy positive and light, and their guidance helped make the entire day flow smoothly.
We loved the final wedding teaser and film we received that captured the spirit of the evening. Sebastien was very detailed in his creative process and collaborating with us. We had a few specific edits in mind, and Sebastien was incredibly accommodating, making those changes swiftly and seamlessly. We're so grateful for how everything turned out and highly recommend Interstellar Films for your videography needs!

Sebastien is an incredibly talented individual. During our initial phone call I could tell how wonderful of a person he was and how he wanted to capture the most important parts of our wedding and create art that puts you right back in that moment with all of the wonderful emotions. He is so genuine and kind, truly cares about connection and is so easy to work with. The day of the wedding went incredibly smooth, he is so advanced and prepared, and goes above and beyond to produce incredible films. It was an absolute joy for him to be present on our special day, he made things feel so comfortable and fun. I can’t count how many times I’ve watched my films since they’ve arrived. Also, not only is he great and nice and funny and amazing at his job, he is also fast! I got my films before the expected arrival which was a wonderful surprise. He really cares guys, do yourself a favor and book him! He is worth it!

I would give Interstellar Films 6 stars if I could!
I met Sebastien at wedding I was a bridesmaid in last year and when planning for my own wedding, he was the obvious choice. Each time we met with him, he brought the energy and always made us feel comfortable in front of the camera.
Thanks to Interstellar Films, we get to re-live our wedding day anytime that we want. Each video he shared captured the raw emotion, our loved ones and the beauty of the day. He took the time to understand our vision and what we wanted out of our day. I can't wait to look back on them each anniversary and as we grow older.
Not to mention, the quality of our videos are unmatched, both the sound and visuals were TOP tier. I really could go on and on but his work speaks for itself - STELLAR!

Sebastien was such pleasure to work with. Right off the bat we appreciated his open and clear communication style. There is nothing more helpful during the stress of planning a wedding than a vendor who responds promptly and extensively. Whenever we had a question or concern we could always depend on Sebastien. It almost felt like he was available 24/7!
Our wedding day was such a blast. Sebastien is a consummate professional. He showed up early to get drone footage of our first look cliffside spot so we wouldn't need to scramble during first look. We're still in awe at the footage he captured. Throughout the day, we appreciated the pep talks here and there, the calm and fun tone with which he was able to direct a scene, or the ability to know when to just melt into the background and capture our moment. We also had two photographers following us around and it could have easily felt like too much, but, we were very glad he was able to easily work with them and keep up the good vibes!
The videos he delivered to us were everything we could have asked for! He captured every moment we cared about and more. His editing really showed off the emotions we and our guests experienced that day. After the fact, we ended up asking Sebastien for some footage for our two additional ethnic ceremonies. Being the ever ready professional, he had them turned around to us IN A DAY. We now know that we could not have hired a better videographer for our day. We cannot recommend him enough.

Working with Sebastien & Brian was an absolute pleasure, and we're beyond happy with the final results of our wedding videos. When we were searching for a videographer, it was really important for us to find someone who could capture the humor, happiness, and comfort of both our relationship and our wedding. Interstellar really took the time to get to know us a couple, and their understanding of us really shines through in their videos.
They were incredibly helpful in having a point of view and directing us to make sure that we got the best shots and felt comfortable despite us not exactly being movie stars.
We also really appreciated how they were flexible with their hours on the day of, ensuring they captured everything, as opposed to needing to squeeze them into an 8 or 10 hour window.

Lauren and I are completely BLOWN AWAY!! We cannot thank Sebastien enough for creating the most incredible wedding videos! You can truly feel the emotions and love from the day and Sebastien so creatively captured each moment. He was so professional, supportive and engaging when one on one with us and on the other hand, blended in when trying to capture other shots.
It’s been such a treasure to get to relive our wedding day over and over again through his lens. We are incredibly grateful for Sebastien and hope those searching for videographers give Sebastien/Interstellar a look!

Sebastian from Interstellar Films was an absolute gem! Not only did he create a stunning video of our wedding, but he also brought a warmth and friendliness that made us feel so comfortable. His genuine kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process.
From our first meeting to the final video, Sebastian made everything so enjoyable and stress-free. He captured every special moment with incredible artistry, and the finished product exceeded all our expectations.
If you’re looking for a videographer who will not only deliver amazing results but also make you feel completely at ease, Sebastian is the perfect choice. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will treasure our wedding video forever. Thank you, Sebastian!

Sebastien was such a gem of a find and we are so incredibly grateful that we had him with us for our wedding. He was so easy to work with, kind, a positive energy on our big day and captured our day so beautifully. Our wedding video is absolutely incredible and perfectly captured our day - we struggled with how to describe our ideal vision but somehow he still nailed it. Our family and friends have also raved about Sebastien and about our wedding video. Additionally, our photographer and other vendors have had amazing things to say about him. We truly could not recommend him enough and we loved working with him! We will certainly be referring any and all of our friends getting married to Interstellar Films :)

We absolutely LOVED Sebastien!!! Not only was his talent and creativity 5 starts, but he was also amazing to work with on one of the most important days of our life! He was fun, energetic, and made us feel comfortable. He was easy to work with and guided us without feeling like it was too much work. Our final videos are something we will treasure forever and already have been rewatching them a million times. I loved how he intertwined our speeches with the whole day in the video- it was so beautiful and makes me cry every time. We hope we have an excuse to work with him again in the future! Interstellar is the best!!!!!! Thank you Sebastien!!!!

We loved working with Sebastien at our wedding. He was personable, professional, and thorough. Our wedding party and family members were so impressed by how much positivity he radiated throughout the day and how he made everyone feel comfortable. We were impressed with his thoughtful communication throughout the entire process. His film truly captured the love and happiness we felt on our wedding day. We are so grateful that we have these amazing memories to look back on. For any wedding, you’re working with a lot of vendors - but Sebastien definitely stood out amongst the rest. We highly recommend!

Sebastien from Interstellar Films has such a gifted cinematic eye and we were so glad we hired him as our videographer.
He demonstrates such a sensitive attention to detail and went above and beyond to make sure key moments in the wedding were captured. When we received the final edits, it felt like we were reliving not just the literal memories but the actual emotions of the day. He has a deft editing hand and I can't recommend Interstellar Films enough to anyone who wants to relive their wedding day as its own special film.

We hired an amazing videographer for our wedding, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found him! We knew we wanted a high-quality video to remember our day, and his services were well worth the investment.
From a work quality standpoint, our high expectations were set based on his impressive portfolio and online presence. He not only met but exceeded these expectations with his exceptional videography. The final video beautifully captured every special moment and his creative and technical skills really shined through.
In terms of professionalism, he was invaluable. His direction was clear, and guidance helped us pinpoint exactly what we wanted captured throughout our wedding day. His professionalism, flexibility, and ability to meet our busy schedule were greatly appreciated.
On a personal level, he brought a sincere and calming presence to what is an already hectic day. His confident and reassuring demeanor made the experience enjoyable and stress-free. We felt completely at ease working with him from the beginning and appreciated his open communication throughout the process.
We wholeheartedly recommend Interstellar Films to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated professional. His work is not only top-notch but also deeply personal and memorable.
Thank you, Sebastien, for giving us a wedding video that we will cherish forever!

We absolutely loved working with Sebastien. He was organized, professional, and a joy to work with prior and during our wedding day. We are happy he did not rush our video and listened to our requests while utilizing his creativity. When we saw the final product we were blown away and had no changes! I can't see anyone being unhappy working with him! ^_^

We only interacted with Sebastien a few times before the wedding. We had a brief call with him to introduce ourselves and filled out a form to help Sebastien understand more about us. While that might seem concerning at first, as a couple who had a lot to coordinate, Sebastien was quite refreshing because we did not have to worry about him.
On the day of our wedding, Sebastien's professionalism towards his work was exactly what we expected. There was a lot going on, but he made capturing our special moments feel really natural and fun. His videos also covered the highlights of our wedding in the captivating way we wanted, making it easy to share with friends and family.
I would highly recommend Sebastien to anyone who wants a videographer who treats your special day with the highest level of professionalism and respect.

We are very lucky to have Sebastien as videographer for our wedding. Sebastien was very responsive and easy to work with. My hubby and I didn’t get any pressure to stage anything for the sake of getting good pictures or videos. The wind and the cold was a lot to take-in, but I never heard any complaints from Sebastien. I badly wanted to get the full view of the location too, but he was able to get the shots I wanted even with many limitations. Most of all, Sebastien captured our wedding and the emotions that we had that day so beautifully, I “happy cried” watching the videos much more than in the actual wedding day! Thank you!!!

If you are questioning if 1/ you need a video for your wedding and 2/ is Interstellar Films the right fit?
Both answer is ABSOLUTELY YES. My husband and I can not thank Sebastien enough - first off, he is a JOY to be around, made the entire day such a great experience, and I don't think he stopped smiling the entire day??? Our wedding video is one of our most cherished things we have post wedding, and this is coming from a couple who almost passed on the video. Sebastien surprised us with a mini clip video of the bride/groomsmen we got a few days after the wedding that was SO cute/such a great memory. He provided a shorter and longer wedding film, and this included drone shots of the venue. The quality blew us away. You will not be disappointed with Interstellar!

Sebastien is a fun, kind, caring, and genuine soul. He is like a friend that helps keep you calm, and reassured me that everything was going well because I was so worried about the guests and everything because it rained! I've also dubbed him a "video ninja" because sometimes you don't know he is there filming all the moments. <3 Sebastien is so creative and wonderfully gifted in his craft. He captures the essence, personality, and energy that make you, as a couple, special. Each image/video snippet, audio, music, and flow of the video is carefully chosen, designed, and put together to create a beautiful and moving wedding film/teaser that brings you back to your wedding day along with all the feelings and emotions~
__ Sebastien, thank you so much for capturing all the moments, and especially the smaller, more intimate happenings throughout the day. We appreciate you and look forward to seeing more of your amazing work and maybe at our friends' weddings!

Sebastien was a star! He is so kind, fun and brought really great energy to our day.
He fit in so well, we never felt like we were "on camera" or felt uncomfortable in any way. I didn't even notice he was filming the dance floor until I saw the video! He also used multiple cameras so our ceremony and speeches have multiple angles which was such a cool surprise.
We were on the fence about hiring a videographer when it came to budgeting, but once we met Sebastien and saw our video we were so happy we did! We specially loved the full videos of our ceremony & speeches, they are so special. Sebastien was also very self-sufficient and needed little from us leading up to the wedding which was so appreciated during wedding planning.
So for anyone on the fence, we highly recommend Interstellar!

My husband and I are so very grateful that our wedding planner helped us find Interstellar Films. In the beginning of planning, we had our first introduction phone call with Sebastien after taking a look at the Interstellar Films website. He was so nice and very professional. You could just tell that he really loved what he does and really wants to capture a couple’s story in the best way possible. The process of picking a package was also super easy and straightforward, we were able to get everything that we could’ve possibly asked for, even raw footage!
We finally met Sebastien the day of the wedding, and he was just a breath of fresh air because he was fun to talk to and has a very welcoming and warm presence. It’s always a little nerve wrecking being in front of a camera, yes… especially on your own wedding day, but Sebastien made my husband and I feel 1000% comfortable. Honestly most of the day it was as if there wasn’t a camera because of how smooth everything went.
The day we received our wedding videos, we were in disbelief of how beautiful every video was cut together. Most of the clips were moments I didn’t remember was being captured, but I guess that’s the point!! Sebastien captured every possible moment that was worth remembering. We couldn’t stop watching all of the wedding videos the moment we received them!
We recommend Interstellar Films to every lovely couple who wants to not just remember their wedding day, but pretty much re-live/ re-experience the unforgettable happiness, bliss, and love you feel on a day unlike any other. It is pure magic and 1000% worth it.
Your wedding video is one of the most amazing keepsakes that you could ever ask for, especially when it was created by Interstellar Films!!! You won’t regret it, Sebastien is incredible!

WOW! When I was first wedding planning, I was on the fence about videography, but Sebastien came highly recommended to me by a previous bride he worked with and I am SO glad I booked him. We are replaying what Sebastien made for us over and over!! He captured our whole vibe we were going for so perfectly and beautifully- we are SO impressed!! And SO EXCITED to share with friends and family!! Not only that, but he is truly kind and down-to-earth and exactly the kind of energy you want around you on such an intense day. He is truly talented and a joy to work with and I definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone who’s getting married!
I can’t express how special his videography services were!! Thankful for his talent on the most important day. :)

Sebastien and Brian are amazingly talented folks. The care and attention that they provided throughout the whole process made us feel like we were working with friends/family and not some 'vendor'.
They were super responsive, paid attention to our wants/needs, and somehow provided an amazing recap video of our day despite a few hiccups that we encountered (out of our control) day of... like a downpour of rain... ha!
They went above and beyond for us and we would recommend them to anyone!

I always knew I wanted to have videography at my wedding but wasn’t sure who or what I would need. I did extensive research and just watched endless video samples on YouTube, online, and found ones that fit my needs which were capturing the details of the big day and the scenery too since I wasn’t local to my venue location. In addition, I knew I needed a crew that was not in my face, intrusive and literally would be in the background you forget because I am that shy and I even brought it up at the consult. It’s like for someone as shy as me I thought of wanting these things but wasn’t sure to bring up, but after learning more about the company and speaking with Sebastien, I knew even more I needed that for myself and was assured confidently.
After narrowing down the search it came down to talking to the vendors and the best experience for us was when we had a consultation call with Sebastien and we were so comfortable! We came prepared with a list of questions that was answered in detail, we also learned more about him and his services and everything was so comfortable and open, which is important to feel this way because on the big day you won’t have time to think about every single thing that happens that day and you want to feel like you can trust your vendors. Sebastien went above and beyond not only providing us top services in being knowledgeable of his work , in making sure we were always comfortable during the call, on the big day, as well as even providing advice on the big day when things got crazy and after the big day when everything happened so fast I had to recap with someone that wasn’t a part of my bridal party or my family, someone to vent to that was neutral and saw all that happened on the big day and to help provide insight. This is definitely like paying for services but with bonus services! I didn’t even know how overwhelmed I was and he was the only vendor to ask me if I was okay and if things were going the speed I needed and to speak up if I needed anything or needed to slow down. I had no idea how much that was needed. The crew is also so friendly and felt like family and was constantly observant and respectful of myself and family, we felt really taken care of! I was also worried the cameras would be too close or intrusive and I didn’t even know they were there and that was a reassurance I was given since the day I virtually met Sebastien and it held true. After the big day, I had a long but very deserving wait for the final videos due to the rush of the holidays but when ready, everything I ever requested and hoped for was captured in the video with the smallest to largest of details, I was so amazed and still am! I definitely cried watching my videos. I was told and recommended by many people that you will regret it if you don’t have a videographer, and they were right. Even my photographer recommended that this service is a must because the story is captured differently even when a still photo may not. This definitely was worth everything I have and I can’t stop watching my videos over and over, reliving the special day and believe me, you will want and need that because that big day sometimes can be a blur. You will also be receiving cinematic high quality which is also so worth it and makes you feel like you’re in a real movie and I hardly recognize myself ever in this light. My goal was to capture the scenery, to focus on the big day, to see the details I worked so hard to put together for it and most importantly, see and feel the moments, capturing the emotions and memories of us and with those that I love. I am so thankful that I was hesitant initially with whether I wanted this or needed this, if I could push my shy away and when I learned, I became comforted and supported by such a good team before, during and after the big day! Thank you so much Sebastien for helping me capture my love story and I will never forget what you’ve done for us and I wish you the best with your continued success as your passion really shows in your work output and your kindness helps make the already stressful day a breeze. Thank you again!

Sebastien was recommended to us by our wedding planner and let me tell you he did not disappoint! From our first meeting, he took the time to understand us and what we envisioned for our wedding video. He was professional and communicative throughout the process. You can see the care he takes for his craft. Our family & friends couldn't stop saying how much they loved the video! He beautifully captured all the memories of our wedding day.

We got married in August, and I can't even put into words how amazing Sebastien was to work with. From the booking to final consult, to the day of, he exceeded our expectations above and beyond! We had two videographers that arrived promptly, they were so friendly and fun to work with, and listened to everything I was wanting to see in our video. They were sure to keep us updated during their time at our wedding, while also letting us enjoy our day. To make it better, we received our video so quickly, without compromising the quality. I had given Sebastien very little direction in what we were hoping the video would be, but he understood and the team delivered! I know that years to come I will still tear up watching the video because it captured our day perfectly. I am so glad that we chose Interstellar Films to work with.

Sebastien from Interstellar Films was terrific to work with at our wedding in October of 2023. Communication was prompt ahead of the wedding, which I always appreciate, and he was punctual for the getting ready portion. He provided us with some direction on the day of when needed, but otherwise was unobtrusive, and the video/highlight reels were beautiful and of high quality. And the audio was very clear! I’m glad to have the recordings and memories of our ceremony and toasts. Had a great experience and would highly recommend!
