Jake created a wedding video that we will cherish forever! It was absolutely perfect and captured the day perfectly! The details they captured truly made us so happy. I have watched many of Moonlit's videos and each one is so special. On the da...
y of the wedding the team was professional and were a perfect addition to our vendors!
PLEASE BOOK MOONLIT WEDDINGS!!! We just got our wedding video back today and we were in tears revisiting our wedding day. Jake recreated every moment of our wedding and we will be able to always look back on one of the best days of our lives. J...
ake is not only creative and produces amazing, high quality videos but he is extremely communicative, kind and easy to work with. We got a highlight video, ceremony video, speeches and even unedited footage. Thank you so much Jake!!
My husband and I knew we wanted a videographer to record all the life and motion of our wedding day. We chose Jake at Moonlit because we loved his authentic style. He was also incredibly straightforward and easy to work with throughout our plan...
ning process. But WOW - we were blown away by our wedding videos when we got them back! My husband said: "I feel like we're stars of a movie, this is Hollywood production quality!" We plan to look back on our video at each anniversary, and are happy we made the choice to go with Moonlit so we can relive each moment of the wedding day for years to come. Thanks for capturing our day beautifully, Jake!
Jake was amazing and so great to work with! He made the whole process so easy and our video came out AMAZING!! We even had a couple special requests for the video editing and he delivered! To top it all off, when our original photographer ghost...
ed us Jake was quick to offer us some referrals and he ended up connecting us with an amazing photographer! I cannot recommend that you go with Moonlit Weddings enough!
Jake of Moonlit Weddings was fantastic to work with. He had a great, positive vibe from the very beginning and by his knowledge and expertise he produced a beautiful video of our wedding day. (Literally, I watch it multiple times a week!) Throu...
ghout the wedding day he blended in seamlessly with guests to capture some fun, special moments, and his presence was comfortable and easygoing throughout a day that otherwise came with many stressors. While no form of media can truly capture the whirlwind of emotions of your wedding day, the beauty of movement and sounds from the day are so special to have on video. I highly recommend Jake and Moonlit Weddings!
We booked Moonlit for our May wedding and went with the Moon plan. We loved working with Jake and his team and highly recommend them for your special day. He was easy going from the start and that was no different from how he acted day of. Afte...
r looking back at the wedding videos, I didn't even realize them recording a lot of it - which was great! He had never worked with my photographer, but was extremely collaborative in doing so. They also put together a fantastic 5 minute highlight reel that captured EVERY aspect of the day and I didn't give him a ton of guidance on that. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. Book them now!
Last note, we had to include a live stream for our wedding last minute. Jake was so honest and transparent in the fact that he had tested out the network in Dripping Springs in the past and knew he wouldn't have the best connection there - that honestly from a vendor is hard to come by! It's really appreciated and well respected.
Jake was perfect! He was so kind, calm and easygoing on wedding day. He blended into the background which made you forget a camera was even there. But once you get your videos back, you realize he captured every single moment. Not one thing wen...
t unnoticed by him, even capturing things I didn't even get to see on wedding day. I would highly recommend Moonlit Weddings! I could not be more happy with our wedding videos.
Jake was amazing...he showed up at my daughters wedding and got right to work. He worked effortlessly capture every moment. I would highly recommend Jake to be a part of your wedding experience.
Jake is truly an artist. He created such a beautiful wedding video for us to cherish for the rest of our lives! I encourage anyone looking for a videographer to work with him. He was very responsive throughout the planning process, was great to...
work with on the big day, and was very collaborative with the final choices for music. Can't recommend him enough!
Could not recommend more. Absolutely amazing videos. If we only received the Highlight film it still would have exceeded expectations but the additional cuts put it over the top. Amazing work at integrating the songs, slowing the video pace at...
the right moments..just everything.
Jake is such a talented and personable individual! I love how seamless and timeless his wedding videos are and the fact that he shoots and uses drone footage added to the appeal of booking him. I found Jake pretty late in the wedding planning p...
rocess after losing my previously booked videographer and he was so patient and straightforward with me on what I could expect. He has already consulted with my husband and me about music for the video and the vibe we are looking for. I love that he wants his clients to be involved in the process of creating something special to commemorate their big day. Watching Jake work is truly a pleasure and I can't wait to see what he creates for us!!
We were AMAZED at the videos Jake and his team recorded for our wedding. Between livestreaming our ceremony and our produced wedding videos, the quality was truly top notch. The team at Moonlit made it very easy on our end by arriving early and...
were so prepared that we never had anything to worry about on our big day.
It's really nice to be able to share these videos with friends and family, and I know we'll be treasuring them for the rest of our lives. I'm so glad we worked with Jake and would recommend him for any wedding!
Jake and his team were absolutely amazing. Our wedding was 10/23/2021. They showed up, needed no direction and produced amazing content. He asked me what kind of music we would like for our highlight video and all I told him was "country". He ...
picked the perfect songs and the highlight video felt like I was watching a movie trailer, it was so well made with amazing and creative shots, mixing in slow motion to make it all so whimsical. I would recommend Jake to anyone looking for videographer for any event!
Jake is incredible!! The video is one of my favorite wedding decisions I made. He was so professional and courteous - most of the wedding day I didn’t even notice him there but he got EVERY moment on camera and I had so many guests comment on h...
ow kind and lovely he was. The quality is beyond worth the investment.
Jake is so insanely talented and captured our day PERFECTLY!! It deserves an Oscar and I’m not just saying that because it’s my own wedding. We will truly cherish our video for the rest of our lives. MoonLit’s pricing is so reasonable for the p...
roduct you receive and Jake was so responsive and professional every step of the way!
Jake and his team were awesome to work with! Moonlit came highly recommended by our planner and we were brought to tears of joy watching examples of strangers' wedding videos on his website. The communication leading up to our wedding was clear...
& helpful. Filming throughout the wedding was a breeze. You'll hardly notice they are there, but the outcome will be incredible. I'd highly recommend hiring Moonlit.
Jake was absolutely wonderful on our wedding day. He showed up and just started getting footage right away. He was very kind and easy to work with and just knew exactly what shots he needed. He wasn't in our face at all, just consistently getti...
ng footage in the background. His portfolio speaks for itself and I can't wait for us to get our wedding video back. He is a professional and definitely knows what he's doing! I would recommend him to anyone in the market for a videographer.
I was on the fence about whether or not to hire a videographer, but I am so glad I did! Jake is responsive, friendly and great to work with. He had very creative ideas on the wedding day, and I can't wait to see the final result once it's ready...
! I wanted a videographer who wasn't too "in your face" and captured more candid moments, and Jake did just that. Thank you Jake!
HIGHLY recommend using Jake for your wedding video! He captured everything perfectly, was extremely nice, and sent us our video in the exact time frame he said. Would recommend Jake to anyone!
We booked Jake extremely last minute, 4 days before the wedding, as vide footage wasn't something I thought I wanted or needed but thankfully I reazlied I was wrong. We also had planned to stream the ceremony ourselves and realized we needed ...
someone who knew actually what they were doing to handle that. Following our call with Jake we ended up booking a videography package with the live stream. Jake, who is not only so cool and professional, was extremely responsive and flexible due to short timeframe. I feel so lucky that he was available and I can't wait to get the highlight video and the rest of the footage he shot. The way he was directing us to capture special moments plus his presence all around just reitereated his extreme talent and passion for his work. Go with Moonlit, you wont regret it!
Jake and his team were amazing! From planning what services we needed to filming the event, he was professional and highly qualified. His films are better quality than ANY I’ve seen hands down. We had a lot of last minute changes due to Covid; ...
Jake rolled with them all. We can’t wait to see the final product! As MOB, I can say this is the best decision we made!
Jake McDonald from Moonlit Weddings provided excellent service from Day 1. He was recommended by our wedding coordinator, Vintage & Lace Weddings, and far exceeded our expectations. From the first call I made to Jake, I knew that he was a true ...
professional - and a nice person. On the day of the event, Jake and his assistant arrived at the venue on time and was extremely professional and friendly, putting everyone at ease as we gathered for the procession. He captured some wonderful pre-ceremony footage of the bride and groom with their bridesmaids and groomsmen - really setting the tone for the event. The ceremony footage was professionally done with excellent sound and perfection in terms of viewing angles. Moving to the reception, Jake preserved every special moment - the grand entrance, toasts, special dances, private dance at the end - and everything in between. His editing was so well done that the video includes all key elements of the evening, put together with emotion, beautiful background music and creativity in camera angles, voiceover and special editing techniques.
Not only that - Jake is friendly and was a pleasure to work with before, during and after the event. Five stars is not enough!
Jake McDonald and his team FAR exceeded our expectations!! They captured so much more than I thought on our wedding day and the end result was so heartfelt and touching. Every time I watch the video, I'm brought back to our wedding day and it's...
even more magical through the MoonLit Weddings lens :) Thank you, Jake!!
Jake from Moonlit was such a pleasure to work with! We really wanted to have a videographer for our wedding but didn't want to pay upwards of $5000 like some of the other companies were quoting. We had almost given up on finding a videographer...
with great reviews that fit within our budget when we found Jake and, boy, are we so happy we did! He has wonderful customer service (he is so quick with his responses) and is a pleasure to work with. On the day of the wedding, he was professional and efficient. One of our requests was that we didn't want the videographer or photographer to be all up in people's faces or distracting from the event and he and his team accomplished that perfectly! They got all the shots they needed in as quick a time as possible which gave my husband and I plenty of time to enjoy the reception with our guests. We are so happy we booked with Moonlit and would recommend them to everyone!
Jake of Moonlit Weddings exceeded our expectations in capturing our daughter's wedding day in video. He is an expert at getting just the right shots, at exactly the right moments, and he is such an artist in the way he films the day, and a gift...
ed storyteller in the way he edits all these moments together to produce a finished video. Jake is masterful at remaining stealthily behind-the-scenes. We hardly knew he was there all day, yet he captured every important moment. We can't say enough about Jake, and we HIGHLY recommend Moonlit Weddings!
Jake was exceptionally kind with taking up our wedding at the last minute! We booked him only a month away from the wedding, and he jumped in to save the day.
He was really quick and easy to work with to get the shots he needed. We took photo...
s before our ceremony, and even through everything feeling a little hectic, he knew exactly what to ask for making our time with him effortless.
We have not received our video back just yet, but we're so exceptionally excited based on how professional he is and his previous work.
Thank you so so much, Jake! We're happy to recommend you to anyone in the future.
Jake is absolutely amazing! We received our finished wedding video a few days ago and my husband, family, friends, and I have already watched it dozens of times and cried every single time. To say he captured the day perfectly would be an under...
statement. On the wedding day itself, Jake was so stealth and unobtrusive. He was a calming presence for me as I went through the day getting ready to walk down the aisle. I highly recommend Jake and know that our wedding video will be one of our most treasured memories from the best day of our lives!
Jake with MoonLit Weddings did an amazing job covering our wedding! Jake was quick to respond to emails whenever I reached out to him from start to end. The pricing is fair for the quality work he did. He captured so many beautiful moments thro...
ughout the day. The process of getting us to look natural came through the videos - nothing looked forced! We received our video within the time he gave us. I would highly recommend Moonlit for your wedding, you won't regret it! I only wish I got the Documentary package - it was so nice to re-watch our ceremony and highlight videos but we wanted more!
There are no words that I can describe the way that Jake captures the moment. The way they were able to film certain details of our wedding was just amazing. I would hire Jake and his team over and over and over again! I HIGHLY recommend Moonli...

The videographer was the last vendor that we hired. I had debated for a long time whether to get one due to our budget, but I am SO GLAD that I did. Although I was super inconsistent with contacting him (I was a total scatterbrain leading up to...
the wedding), Jake was very flexible to work with from the get-go and was great about making sure he knew what we wanted to film on the day of the wedding. He captured our day so perfectly, from getting ready all the way up until the party ended, and was wonderful about making sure we were happy with the final edit. I am so glad I'll have these memories to cherish forever and cannot recommend him enough! Thank you, Jake!

Hands down, this was the best investment we made for our wedding. We considered renting video cameras, but finally caved and decided to spend the money. Jake & Moonlit Weddings prices are super reasonable, but we hadn't originally allowed for i...
t in our budget. It was incredibly special to sit with my grandmother (who couldn't attend the wedding) and watch the speeches and ceremony with her. Jake did an incredible job capturing the spirit of our wedding, editing the footage, and was a joy to work with. Cannot recommend him enough!!
My experience working with Moonlit Weddings was awesome start to finish. Jake is very professional and easy to work with. He listened to everything we wanted for our highlight video and delivered that and more. He and his team got all the impor...
tant footage and were in the mix of everything but somehow never got in the way. We had a guest that got extremely drunk and was making a fool of herself. She was unfortunately front and center for the bouquet toss and I thought there was no way the bouquet toss footage could be used in our highlight video. But I underestimated Jake's editing skills and he was somehow able to edit in a way where she was not visible. I really appreciate that when I told him "cut the bouquet toss" he didn't listen and worked his editing magic instead. As a bride you want everything to be perfect, but as everyone will tell you, there will always be something that doesn't quite go as planned. Jake was able to turn an imperfect moment into a perfect one. I highly recommend Moonlit Weddings!
