We are so obsessed with our wedding video from Ian! He was so great to work with leading up to the wedding and day of. We will cherish our wedding video forever and are so thankful we made this decision!!
There aren't enough words to describe how happy we are that we chose Ian from Movie Magic. Ian did both of my daughters weddings and the video in both of them was nothing short of amazing. Ian is one of the nicest people you will meet. If your on the fence about hiring a videographer search no longer Ian will make sure your video is CINDERELLA story worthy.
We are so lucky that our wedding planner led us to Ian and his team at Movie Magic. From the very beginning, Ian was so easy to work with and was always quick to respond to any emails or questions we had. He was very flexible with his video style to cater to our vision for our wedding film. On wedding day, Ian was fantastic to work with! He is just about the nicest person you could every meet and worked himself seamlessly into all the special moments of the day. Ian went above and beyond and we were honestly blown away with the amount of footage and quality of the wedding videos we received. I would not hesitate to work with Ian again and if you want a professional and beautiful wedding film, look no further!
There are not enough words to describe how amazing Ian and the Movie Magic crew are! Ian was kind, professional, courteous, and worked seamlessly with our other vendors, many of whom he already knew. He took the time to meet with my husband and I the day before the wedding to film a quick interview and get to know us better. The day of the wedding, Ian knew exactly where to be to catch all the important moments and I never had to worry. He did a great job of blending in with our wedding crowd, while still somehow being able to capture everything. The actual video was impeccable! It has been so nice to re-live the wedding night and our family cannot stop raving about the quality of the video. If you are even slightly considering having a videographer at your wedding I would 100% recommend doing it and hiring Ian. Having the memory that will last a lifetime is truly priceless!
Having Ian as our videographer was one of the best decisions we made. We were initially on the fence about having a videographer at all since it seemed like something that we could trim from the budget, but closer to the wedding we realized so much goes into planning and the photos and videos are all you have left to remember the day. I had interviewed with someone locally in Jacksonville and when I looked at their videos I didn't like the style at all. It seemed forced and a bit awkward. A childhood friend had posted a "sneak preview" video of her brother's wedding, and I fell in love with it. They got married in the Tampa area, so I thought there would be no way he would travel all the way to Jacksonville. But then I found out that Ian traveled 2 hours away to shoot my friend's wedding, so I decided to at least ask and see if he would do it. Not only does Ian travel, but he didn't charge extra to come to St. Augustine. His prices are reasonable and the quality of his work is excellent. He also was very personable and professional and worked great with our photographers. We were beyond happy with the results and have already watched the video several times. If you're looking at a videographer, definitely check out Movie Magic Productions.
When I first saw our wedding trailer I was in tears. It was so beautifully put together and we were even more amazed when we got the DVDs. I loved getting to relive our special day and getting to see things that we missed during the chaos. Ian is truly talented and great to work with. I would recommend him to every bride!
Ian is truly AMAZING at what he does! He is very personable and fun to work with. He shows up on rehearsal day and interviews the bride and groom for the wedding video, and then on wedding day he shows up early and gets everything ready for catching all the special moments. He worked great with our photographers which was also comforting. Our video is absolutely STUNNING!!! You cannot go wrong with hiring Movie Magic Productions to capture your wedding day! Hiring them was one of the BEST decisions we made when choosing our vendors! If you are on the fence about hiring a videographer, do it!!! It will be a video you can treasure for a lifetime and it will never get old watching one of the biggest days of your life over and over again! He also gets your video completed and back to you in a very fast turn around time. He blew us away with how fast we received it! Hire Ian and he will put forth his passion and talent to make your wedding video so BEAUTIFUL!!! You will not regret it! Thanks a million Ian for your amazing work!!!
Ian and the Movie Magic team are simply the best! They worked great with all our vendors and blended in so well that we did not even realize they were there. Our short trailer is absolutely phenomenal! It really is like a trailer to a box office movie with us as the stars. It's been 4 months since our wedding and I still watch it almost every day. It allows me to briefly relive our wedding day any time I want to. The actual video is just as great. Ian was able to capture every single important moment and turn it into an end product that we will cherish forever. Only video will truly give you a glimpse of the most important day of your life, which goes by in a instant. There were things on the video that we did not even see or realize have happened because of how caught up we were in the moment. I already recommended Ian to a friend of mine who got married shortly after I did, and she loved the end product as much as we did. Ian and Movie Magic were definitely at the top of our favorite vendors list! Thank you for documenting our wedding in such an amazing way!
I haven't received my video back yet, but Ian was great to work with! so easy going, and so much fun to have their! Him and my photographer had worked together several times before which made the whole day go by much smoother. I have several friends who used movie magic also and their videos are amazing!
Ian was our videographer and was very fun to work with! Our video turned out perfect (even though it was very windy that day). The personalized case for the dvd and blue ray makes it even more special! The special highlight clips and 20 minute movie are beautiful and evoke tears every time we watch them! So reasonably priced as well in comparison to others doing the same work!
Ian's work is outstanding and we cannot thank him enough for fully capturing the magic and love that my husband and I felt on our wedding day! Like other reviewers have stated, many people tell you not to skimp on your photography and while that is true, you should also make it a priority to select an amazing videographer like Movie Magic!
Ian is so great to work with and went out of his way to make capture the key elements of our wedding day, while allowing us to fully enjoy our day. Some guests didn't even realize we had a videographer! He was the first vendor to arrive and the last to leave - his prices are unbelievable for the service and quality product we received.
We will always treasure our wedding video and the highlight video. Everyone who sees the video loves it and many of my friends who are recently married regret not hiring a videographer for their weddings. Thanks to Movie Magic and Ian's talent, we have a priceless keepsake that we look forward to showing to our future children and watching anytime that we want to relive the magic.
If you are considering booking Movie Magic - do not hesitate! Ian is the absolute best!
Thank you again Ian for all of your fabulous work! You are truly talented and made our day even more special!

Ian was one of the most amazing wedding vendors we had. He even came from out of town the night before to check out the church and double check every detail, having to stay the night at a hotel. His work is SO amazing! A lot of people overlook videographers and I cannot tell you how much you will be disappointed if you don't have a wedding video once the day is over. I could watch his masterpiece over and over again all day, every day. It really is like a feature film and I keep getting compliments on his work. Thank you so much for allowing us to relive our wedding day and capturing every detail and emotion that went into our big day!
I was recommended to Movie Magic Productions by a friend who is a wedding planner, so I knew going in that I wouldn't be referred if the services weren't excellent. After reviewing my options (and as brides know, there are endless vendor options out there), I decided to go with Movie Magic for a number of reasons. First, Ian VanCattenburch of Movie Magic, responded to my initial email inquiry right away, and throughout my experience was always prompt in returning all calls and emails. Second, Ian was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Although he is based out of Tampa, he was flexible and willing to drive to Orlando for my wedding without charging me a fee like many other vendors. Since I was on a budget, it was also important to me that he was not pushy with trying to "sell" additional products/services, and was able to work with me. Third, the overall value of what I received was amazing - regardless of cost, but for the price I paid, it was phenomenal. I had so many friends who also had videographers and paid twice as much tell me how much better my video was than theirs. Finally, working with Ian was a true pleasure - he had the ability to be present in the room and not have anyone be aware of his presence, which is key for capturing candid moments. I could not be happier with Movie Magic Productions and would recommend them to anyone in the market for a videographer.
We could not have been more pleased with Movie Magic Productions. Ian's samples were amazing, he was always quick to answer questions and with his packages including unlimited coverage, we couldn't beat the value. On the day of the wedding, we hardly knew he was there but he managed to capture every memorable moment of the day. Our videos arrived earlier than he promised and included a link to a highlight reel that we could email to our family and friends. Overall, a fantastic job!
Ian and his assistant Jonathan were superb throughout every step of the process.
Ian met with us on a few occasions before the wedding to make sure we got everything we wanted and to get extra video footage which was a huge help as Tampa was an out of town wedding for us. His responsiveness and communication are unparalleled and we could not have asked for a better videographer.
During the wedding day they were absolutely amazing with their professionalism and their vision for creating a special wedding day memory. After seeing their previous work, we are excited to see our finished video!
Ian from Movie Magic was my favorite wedding vendor to work with. He has a very easy, laid-back personality that puts you at total ease in front of the camera. When he "interviews" you (he only interviews bride & groom), he makes you feel like you're having a conversation with him and not the camera. I always used to wonder how people on reality shows can live with cameras constantly on them, but I honestly have to say that there were parts of the day where I forgot about the camera! Ian is very unobtrusive in his shooting and has a way of being there, but not in the way. He will also do anything to get the best shot, even conquer his fear of heights! We went on a ferris wheel ride at a carnival going on outside of our church after our wedding ceremony, and despite his fear of heights, he got in the car behind us to get the most amazing shots.
Having seen the quality of Ian's work through his website samples, I thought it would take months to get our wedding video. But, within a couple of weeks he posted our wedding video sneak preview online, and within a month we had our wedding video. Our wedding video is absolutely amazing! The wedding video makes me look like a movie star and it feels like you're watching a real movie when you're watching it. The case it comes in is even like a real movie case with photos from the wedding on it and a "cast" of people in your wedding on the back!
I definitely recommend Ian for your wedding videography! You may find something cheaper out there, but the quality of it is not going to be the same. Do you want to have a memento from your wedding where you feel like a movie star or a cheap cheesy wedding video where all your guests who have knocked back a few drinks get interviewed? And if you think you don't want or need a videographer, trust me you do and you will regret if afterward if you don't have one. The day goes by in a blink of an eye and you won't remember everything. I only got married less than 3 months ago, and my memory is already a little fuzzy on parts of the day, but everytime I watch my wedding video it takes me back to those moments and what I was feeling in them. My wedding photos just don't evoke the same memories. Ian caught some things that my wedding photographer did not, as well as things that I wasn't there to see, such as my husband getting ready with his groomsmen. Your wedding video is something you will cherish always and you can't go wrong with Movie Magic Productions.
My new husband find Ian who is the videographer online and after intensive searching, he pick Ian and I did not get to meet or talk to him until my wedding. he is so easy to work with and he just work around the photographer. We just got the final product two weeks ago, we absolutely love his work, no words can describe his great quality work. PERFECT is all I can say and you will getting more than what you pay for it, we are highly recommond!!! :) Thank you, Ian!!!
Ian did an amazing job! He captured every detail and I absolutely love my video. I would tell every bride to use him...you will be glad you did. I will cherish this video forever. Thank you Ian for making my day so special! I am truly grateful for all of your hard work :)
