Monarch Productions

is deluxe package and could not be happier. The Love Story was so fun and a cute way to get familiar with being in front of camera. My husband and I are two of the most awkward people in front of cameras and he made it so easy and relaxing. On the day of the wedding, he was an absolute rockstar! When choosing vendors, you need to choose someone who is going to be there for you. We only do this once and vendors do it all the time. So choosing someone who is going to advocate to make sure your day turns out the way it should be is so important. I had NO idea where we should hang the dress, the rings, the invitations (so many little things to remember). Paul went above and beyond that day to take the added stress away from me. He found areas in our AirBnB to hang the dress, he went out of his way to find spots where the light was perfect (we had a super windy, cold, dreary day, so being outside was almost impossible), truly went above and beyond. He came prepped with ideas, and how to shoot so that our wedding video would be perfect. He also understood what was important to me as the bride - family and my dogs - he made sure he got good video of them which made me tear up. I know our wedding video is about us, husband and wife, and our day, but I am so happy that I have something to look back on for when some people/animals are no longer with us. If you're searching for a videographer, you will not regret choosing Paul!

see the day of. Paul was very patient and considerate of what we wanted. All of the poses and kisses we had to do were well worth it! Thanks to Paul, our video is the perfect memento for us to look back on and cherish for the rest of our lives!

work was absolutely incredible as well, we were extremely impressed with how the video turned out. We would absolutely recommend Monarch Productions to anyone, thank you Paul!

change in venue 3 weeks before the wedding due to covid restrictions. Choosing Paul and Monarch Productions for your wedding or special event will leave you with the best way to capture your special day.

e have watched the trailer countless times and the full video many times with family and friends! Everyone cannot stop complimenting how great and beautiful it is! You would have no idea you were being captured by camera especially being camera shy, therefore Paul and all the cameras catch the day so perfectly. No regrets using Monarch Productions!

was very nice about it. As bad videographer could have sent me a snarky message. We cannot tell you all how thankful I am for him and the beautiful service he provides. He sent us the most incredible highlight video and full length video. I keep forgetting to time it but it's somewhere around an hour for the full length and his highlights range but either way I felt through my HOURS AND WEEKS of research his videos were MUCH better and longer and I appreciate that. I was not going to be happy if I spent so much for a twenty minute video or bad vocals during the ceremony (legitimate concerns based on what I saw of other videographers in the area). I also had a friend message me and tell me not to work with someone else that was commenting on a post in a WNY brides group because that videographer scammed them but they couldn't make an outcry about it yet because they were still dealing with legal proceedings against that person. Paul has lots of community ties so it's easy to tell he's not going to abandon the wonderful life he's created for himself to rip people off. It's a lot of money so be vigilant brides, don't get scammed by others. Just because they show up that day, some monsters will steal your footage and never edit or return it to you like my friend's experience. Paul also let us pick out our own music which some other place do not and that was also a game changer and really personalizes your video. I cannot tell you how many compliments I received about both videos and every anniversary when I share the highlight again on social media. Honestly, I've probably received in the upwards of thousands of compliments (many people repeatedly tell me how good it was still). Every coworker and random people I know gushed about how the video made them cry. I'm just getting to posting this now, almost two years later but that's because I procrastinate. We've watched the videos at family events and people really enjoy seeing the video as well as themselves. It's a great social activity. My ring bearer and flower girls felt like movie stars. My husband and I felt like movie stars. The video is so well done, I am so doubtful that anyone else could provide anywhere near the quality of service Paul does. Also, my husband fought me for like an extended period of time about getting a videographer at all. I got my way clearly but he told me multiple times he's so incredibly happy I stuck to my guns. We compromised and I paid 2/3 on this service but we both received something we will cherish FOREVER, and in some ways, even more so than our photos. Thank you again for the incredible service you provide, it very well may be the most wonderful product I have received ever, in my whole life.

ly grateful and so glad we found him to help us capture memories and the true emotions we all felt that day! We highly suggest booking Paul asap for your wedding, you will not regret it and will have live memories to last a lifetime. Thank you so much Paul for your easy partnership and dedication to your craft!

iss out on things that happen through the day! Paul, on the other hand, didn’t miss a thing! The video he put together for us was amazing and we received it less than a month after our wedding! I have watched it dozens of times and each time I relive all the emotions I felt that day! His work is amazing and he was by far one of the more reasonably priced videographers that I looked at (some can be VERY expensive). I highly recommend booking Paul as your wedding videographer, you will not regret it!

y, unpredicted, day to say the very least, he pieced together an absolutely beautiful video that we look forward to watching for years to come, he made our day look flawless, as if it went off without a single hitch, which was not the case. And to anyone who is wondering if Video is worth adding the the budget, or on the fence I strongly suggest it. Photos are wonderful, but there is nothing like a video of your wedding day, it goes by so quickly you forget so much that happens, We love ours!

not even imagine not having a video. It is simply spectacular! The video was very customized and really captured our personalities, too. The whole video captures everything up close, but we honestly didn't even realize Paul was there. He wasn't in the way at all and worked super well with our photographer, too. The video captured all the big things and all the small things - we are thrilled with how many of the small details were captured. Paul truly went above and beyond and we could not be happier with our decision to use Monarch. Thanks again!!!

live every time we watch our video!

e all of the little things on top of the big moments, which is exactly what I was looking for. We were a little nervous about being taped all day but Paul made us feel so comfortable and at ease. He paid attention to everything going on - at one point he even noticed I was seeking out our banquet manager to check on timing for our post-reception bonfire and he promptly jumped in to handle it so I didn't have to worry about anything but being the bride. That was above and beyond and I so appreciated it! On top of being a great videographer, he's just a super nice guy and is so pleasant to work with! We would definitely recommend using Monarch Productions!

tched my cousin's wedding video, done by Monarch Productions. I was blown away! It was then I knew we HAD to have a video done by Monarch! My husband and I are so pleased with our wedding video. Paul is excellent at what he does! His attention to detail is so amazing. He captured so many moments that now we will never forget! Both of our families were completely awed about how the video turned out. It's like a movie! He truly is perfect at what he does and we are forever grateful! Paul is timely, organized, professional, and a genuinely nice person to work with. If you are getting married and you don't think you need a video- think again. You HAVE TO HAVE PAUL!

d the pricing and packages are worth every penny. My husband and I loved working with Paul. We highly recommend him to everyone!!

with and although we never really saw him (he was like the invisible man) during the event-he captured everything! We now have a beautiful video of our entire day, including special moments between our guests and the festivities. He captured all of the little details of the reception and even stayed late to capture a few surprises I put together for my husband at the end of the reception. I would highly recommend him and his work. This will definitely not be a video we put on the shelf and look at 25 years later; we will be enjoying it much, much more!

of the weddding. We spoke on the phone and I felt very comfortable with his preparation. We received the dvd sample for review less than 2 months after the wedding. I was surprised by how well it was made. The menu page, the music inserted, the highlights reel was my favorite. He took real, precious moments between my husband and I at he reception and set them with the music. I was a little worried because he seemed young, but I have no complaints and I am sending back my sample review with no changes needed. I would definitely recommend him.

His prices are comparable and he's worth more than what he charges. He's efficient and kind and gets amazing shots to get the full effect of the day while you're barely aware of his presence. PLUS we got our proof version of the DVD in about 3 weeks, where as many (MANY) of my friends locally are still waiting for their video 6-8 months after their wedding (unacceptable). But he books up quick so call and get an appointment and put the deposit down because he's so worth it!

ot receive the video for a few more weeks. I've heard horror stories about videographers being in the way or too close, etc. I didn't even know Paul was there until we hit the dance floor and he was capturing our guest busting out moves! He even stayed until the last minute. I found his service to be affordable compared to other videography companies. I cannot wait to have a party to view the video with our friends that were unable to attend!
