Mer·ri·ment: lighthearted gaiety or fun-making
We love the term "fun-making" especially in the context of a wedding day. Weddings are a celebration! Your film should bottle that energy. Shake for timeless fun.
This is who we are. We love a good party.
Fun fact- Unlike many of the other videographers listed on the Knot, we're actually based in New England. Don't get duped by a national booking agency ie: outsourcing company.

I've been filming weddings since our humble start in 2010. This was after a tenure as the Director of Photography at a production company in Texas where I led teams in shooting music videos, documentaries, and live television production.
The thing about weddings is that they're literally the best day in a person's life. In filming these important moments we get to play a role in delivering one of the most personalized pieces of art that a person may ever purchase. These films are the heirlooms that a family will pass down to future generations. Obviously we take it pretty seriously. -Jared

Merriment Films did an AMAZING job with our wedding video!!! We were looking for a high-energy, fast-cut, "music video" styled video to match the vibe of our ceremony, and WOW did the team absolutely deliver on making our vision a reality! Actually, the video was even better than we could have imagined! Huge shoutout and thanks to the editing team!
Of course the video couldn't have been created without the skill and talent of our videographers, who did an AMAZING job capturing all of the moments we hoped for, and more! Both of our videographers were on time and were so attentive to us throughout the whole night (all the way until 11pm!)
We highly recommend the Merriment Films team to capture all of the special moments of your special day that you'll have forever!!

WOW! If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding videographer, 1. absolutely do it and 2. hire Merriment!
The Merriment team not only makes the logistics easy and seamless, they fit right into my wedding day. The highlight video has been on repeat in my home. The footage is beautifully captured and the editing is masterful.
I'm beyond grateful to the Merriment team for capturing my special day.

we absolutely loved having merriment films at our wedding. They captured our day so perfectly. Colin did an amazing job and we have loved watching the video over and over. We had so many people comment to us, "we didn't even know you had a videographer" which is what we wanted! someone who could blend in but still capture everything we wanted. thank you so much Merriment!

Nick from merriment films was absolutely incredible! He arrived to our venue ahead of schedule to ensure he was set up and ready to begin filming on time. He had a call with us a week before our wedding to ensure he knew what our vision was, he listened, made sure he knew what we were hoping for and went above and beyond in his delivery. He gave us his personal cell phone number and allowed us to call or text him at any moment with last minute changes or questions. The company was extremely accommodating, very easily accessible to communicate with and I cannot recommend them enough to capture your wedding day. You will not be disappointed if you choose them!!

We hired Merriment Films for our wedding in May 2024. We are very happy with both our teaser and full films. Communication was great from the start, very detailed questionnaire to ensure style and follow up phone call to fill in all the details. Videographer the day of was timely, communicated what he needed, and caught so many priceless moments. We love sharing these videos with our loved ones. Would 100% recommend!

I highly recommend working with Merriment for your big day!! We worked with Nick for our 5/31 wedding and cannot say enough good things. Nick was so kind, patient, and easy to work with. He called us a few weeks beforehand to discuss details and what kind of style we like. Our video was even better than I hoped it would be! From start to finish, I would work with them again in a heartbeat!

Merriment Films absolutely blew us away!! Ritchie was incredible to work with. He scheduled time with us a few weeks before our wedding day to walk through our vision to make sure we were totally aligned. On the wedding day, he was very professional and made me feel comfortable. It didn't even feel like I had someone recording me all day! Although he was behind the scenes, when I did talk with him we had a lot of fun and laughs. He was very courteous with the photographers, giving them first priority in terms of set up/getting the shot. We got all our wedding film back within 6 weeks and we were absolutely stunned. Everything was absolutely perfect - exactly how we imagined it would be and more importantly, exactly how the day felt. The quality of the film was unbelievable - you could literally feel the emotions we felt throughout the day. I couldn't recommend Merriment Films enough!!

Merriment Films did a wonderful job as our wedding videographer. We had a small 12 people event and our videographer felt like part of our friends and family. He worked seamlessly with our photographer making sure we had all the video and photography we desired. I did ask for edits to our film which they listened and adjusted quickly. I would recommend them.

Our wedding in July of 2023 was captured brilliantly by Merriment Films. We two planning calls ahead of the big day that enabled everything to run smoothly. During the wedding day itself, everything went flawlessly. We received the footage in a timely manner and were impressed with the quality! We certainly recommend Merriment!

What an incredible time we had with them! We had 2 videographers and both went so above and beyond to capture everything while also staying "invisible". They would continue to check in with us, asked if there are any special shots and so much more. It was so stress free and the fact they were smiling and so energetic the entire time made it even easier. Hands down would recommend them to anyone who is looking for an amazing video for their special day!
Thanks again Richie and Julian for all you did for us on our wedding day! We can't wait to see the footage!!!

I highly recommend booking with Merriment Films for your wedding day! My friend got married a few years ago and had stop go love film her wedding. when I reached out we heard that they have a sister company Merriment Films that they created during when covid hit. I loved the style style stop go love Films used so when I looked into Merriment Films the prices were amazing and the syle of videogepraoy was just what my fiance and I were looking for. Merriment Films are amazing. They were wonderful with communication and even had us fill out a planning tool so that the videogepaher could make the film suited to mine and my fiance preferences. Once they told me who was gojng to my videogrpaher assigned for my day they had him reach out to us. Travis was who filmed our wedding day and all I have to say is we are so happy. He was amazing to work with. Travis and my photographer worked so great together. He was down down earth , made everyone feel comfortable and have a good time, and he is amazing at what he does. I cannot wait to see how the film comes out we are so happy we chose Merriment Films as our videographer. Travis is super talented! we highly recommend choosing choosing Merriment films.
