Our Wedding Movie was the perfect choice for our wedding. We knew we wanted a videographer, but didn't want to spend $2k+. We were already on a tight budget and had limited resources for an extra vendor. I stumbled upon OWM, saw they were reasonably priced and had add-on's to accommodate all our needs. We chose the silver package and added the highlight reel, an additional hour, and 2 physical discs. The cost of all these items together was a fraction of what other companies were charging.
The owner Guy was easy to communicate with - I did have to follow up on a few emails during the time we signed our contract to the days before our wedding, but I didn't mind because I prefer to be on top of things and had to do the same with other vendors. Guy also helped us out when our photographer failed to capture images for us. It meant a lot to me and my husband that Guy graciously offered his help and eased our after wedding stress.
Christian was our videographer for our wedding day and was so great to work with! He arrived early, was attentive and captured so many beautiful moments of our day. He was very kind and professional. He stayed until our contracted end time and made sure to find me on the dance floor to let me know he was taking off rather than just disappearing. It was great to work with him!
Overall, if you are on a budget and want a simple, well constructed video to capture your day, go with Our Wedding Movie.
Video was late, it appeared as if it had been edited by an amateur in 30 mins or less. Save yourself the heart break and go with someone else
We spent a lot of money on a photographer and at the last minute with a small budget, we booked Our Wedding Movie. The service was very accommodating to us and the quality was amazing.
Any questions?
The videographer who shot my wedding was great; however, our wedding video came back with my husband’s name mis-spelled and the owner won’t fix it. Also, we paid for DVD copies of our video which were never sent to us. It has been almost 3 years now that my husband and I have been married and they still will not remedy the situation. We are extremely disappointed.
Great responsiveness including the day of the event. The videographer was courteous and professional.
Very fun to work with great communication and great price
We are really happy we chose to go with the company Our Wedding Movie! We really enjoyed our experience and love how our video turned out! The customer service was awesome from booking and even helping us choose the perfect package for our day! Our videographer was kind, professional, and was just an overall delight to have around! He also interacted with my 5 year old which was super sweet! My photographer captured a photo I wish I could share here! I would recommend choosing this company for your wedding videos! You won’t regret it!
When I first started planning my wedding I did not want the expense of a videographer but I had some brides tell me that I would regret it. I found Our Wedding Movie online and decided to go for it. I am so glad I did! They were easy to book online and have different packages to choose from. I just received the video and could not have asked for a better memory of the day. The video is beautiful. It was well put together with the music I asked for. Sound quality and picture were on point. I'm so glad I found them and thankful for the beautiful video they created. I will watch it over and over again. I would 100% recommend Our Wedding Movie to any couples looking for a reliable videographer.
SO very happy we chose Our Wedding Movie, Inc!! From the first email to the final product it was a smooth, professional and friendly process. My husband and I are extremely pleased with the video and truly appreciate the professionalism and subtle presence of our videographer, Jullian. Definitely recommend this company!
Very very bad my wedding movie . Sound is bad the quality of the video is bad. Whole video was filming my back of my head. Put the camera in one place and that was it. If someone would did it with the phone it would be better filmed than this. The price is cheap that's why you getting this bad film. Don't hire this you will regret it.
My husband Scott and I had our wedding in Oak Brook, IL on Friday July 15, 2023 and we hired Our Wedding Movie Inc as our Wedding Videographer. When I tell you they arw AMAZINGLY PHENOMENAL. They truly are!!!! Our day was already off to a great start BUT from the moment our videohrapher arrived (promptly on time a PLUS) it was all magical. He captured every moment we requested and moments we hadn't thought of. He was there from the moment of the first stroke of my make up artist's brush until the last dance of the evening. The beautiful way he captured priceless moments on video have left us as well as our guests in awe. The quality is simply SUPERB!!!!!! and their prices are STUPENDOUS for the QUALITY, PROFESSIONALISM and RELIABILITY that they deliver!!!!!! I HIGHLY recommend Our Wedding Movie Inc. to ALL brides in need of an amazing and affordable videographer.
My husband and I had a great experience working with Our Wedding Movie. They had great options for very affordable prices and were responsive whenever we emailed with questions. On our wedding day, the videographer was pleasant and we almost didn't even notice that he was there, yet they were able to capture our day in such a beautiful way. Both the wedding Hilite and Full Movie are expertly done, matched to our song requests and include all of the special moments from our big day. We will cherish these movies forever! I couldn't recommend Our Wedding Movie more highly.
Our Wedding Movie is truly a class act. Guy made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. We couldn't be happier with our video. Both the visual and sound quality are top notch. Our videographer, Josh, was excellent--obviously, he had a wealth of experience and made several suggestions that proved extremely valuable. I wish I could give them 10 Stars, they did such a fantastic job!
We loved working with Our Wedding Movie! David was a great videographer. He was very pleasant to work with and worked well with our wedding photographer. All of the big key moments were captured. David got some great shots of my husband joking around with his groomsmen, which was fun to see looking back. We appreciated the extra footage of the church before the ceremony began and the reception hall before guests arrived. Our main goals were to have our big day captured simply, with good quality and an affordable price, and we got all of those things with Our Wedding Movie. We would recommend them to anyone!
T was absolutley amazing!! His whole vibe and personality worked perfectly with our wedding! He was soo much fun and made sure to get every moment throughout the day. Him and our photographer worked so well together to make sure to get the perfect shots! 100% would recommend Our Wedding Movie!!!
Guy Batila did a masterful job at creating a long lasting memory of the quinceanera. He was so way to get a hold of over the phone even on the weekends to answer any questions I had. The quality and the pictures were fantastic and we were very pleased with the entire experience and the material he provided for us. We would definitely recommend him to all our friends and family for future events.
My husband and I got married over the summer, we decided to go with our wedding video because they’re affordable and had raving reviews. customer service has been excellent and our video turned out absolutely fantastic! I can’t thank them enough for capturing our special day for us and our families to enjoy for a lifetime. I highly recommend 10/10!
Communication with them was always smooth, and it was evident that they cared about making my daughter’s quinceañera memorable.
We’re beyond grateful for their incredible work, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a videographer. Thank you for helping us preserve these beautiful memories!”
Warm regards,
Anna
He did such an amazing job and we are so pleased with our video! Guy worked so hard the whole day and was able to capture every special detail. Highly recommend!!
Blurry and Orange! Poor product and uncommunicative! Do not hire!
I was looking for the simplest possible video-- I just wanted the whole wedding filmed, no compilations or big edits, just one running movie.
When I got the movie back, the ceremony was blurry and orange!!! I hired a videographer so they could cope with venue lighting and work a camera. They couldn't! The movie was only good for the audio.
Throughout the wedding day, the videographer also kept asking me where to stand, what should be filmed, and reminding me about when he needed to leave. He had an itinerary for the day, and I hired a videographer so I wouldn't have to manage them.
Leading up to the wedding day, the company would not return my calls even though I was just trying to pay.
Thank goodness a family member filmed a back-up video on their iPhone. It was WAY better than the product OurWeddingMovie delivered.
Friends of ours had a guest's teenage brother do their movie, and their film is beautiful. The brother used an iPhone, a gimbal, and a toy drone to film it. If you can't afford the crazy prices of videography companies, have someone you know do the video. They will give you something way better than this company can produce.
Julian, our wedding videographer was great! He got great footage of our special day. We wanted a videographer, but prices were crazy. Our Wedding Movie is such a reasonable price and does a nice job. We are very happy with our video!
Julian was the videographer on our wedding day and he was so accommodating, lovely to interact with, calming and professional. Worked seamlessly with our photographer team. Thank you!
DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS VENDOR. They are scammers! Specifically Guy Batila. I booked their services back in February 2022 for my wedding this Saturday November 12th. I paid my $200 deposit and signed the contract and did not hear from him until early September after sending close to 7 emails basically begging for a response. I should have let this vendor go then!!
Then comes the end of October and again, I’m chasing him down with multiple emails, my day of coordinator is calling and leaving voice mails still no response!! I
was literally chasing them down to pay the remaining money owed as it says in their janky contract that the total fee must be paid 7 days in advance of your event or they reserve the right to not show up. Well, how can I pay the invoice if nobody responds??????
I truly believe that Guy was going to ghost us on the day of our event. So today, 3 says before my wedding my fiancé and I had to find another videographer for our wedding on November 12th. Thank God we found an amazing professional to do it for us!! And that we didn’t go with this sorry excuse of a business! So thankful that we did not waste close to 1K and risk the chance of not even getting our wedding video back.
Again, DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM.
Our Wedding Movie was fantastic to work with! From signing the contract, making payments and coordination day of, they were great! They are also very affordable and were recommended by our wedding coordinator, who's done countless weddings!
T was the videographer for our wedding and he was so fun! He kept the energy going and worked well with our photographers! We are so excited to see the finished product! Thanks for helping create a lasting memory of our special day!
Our Wedding Movie was a great choice. They were very easy to work with and were able to accommodate when needed. Our Wedding Movie is affordable and great quality. Thank you for being a part of our special day :) Will continue to recommend to others.
Our videographer Guy was excellent! Very professional and a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much!! Cant wait to see the finshed procuct!
Our wedding movie came out so perfect. We reached out to so many wedding videographers but majority of them charged only cinematography and were extremely expensive. We wanted a package that captured our entire wedding day for a reasonable price. After receiving our wedding movie in the expected timeframe, it was beyond what I expected; it captured ALL the beautiful moments. The first time watching - it brought tears in my eyes when they captured our vows and we were able to see all the moments we missed on our day. The videographer was so EASY to work with the day of & Guy Batista has been so wonderful, communicative and super responsive throughout the whole wedding process. I highly recommend Our Wedding Move, Inc. You won't regret it!
My husband and I were absolutely thrilled with Jimmy & Jessica. They were sooo sweet, professional and so kind. They showed they truly enjoy their jobs capturing important things of a wedding. They were fun to work with and I would recommend overall this company! We can not wait for our video!
We loved having Our Wedding Movie capture our special day. We were able to pick a well-priced package that worked best for our event. We are so thankful for Jimmy and Hayden for all of their work. Both were polite and courteous and were able to answer any questions we may have had. You can’t go wrong with Our Wedding Movie.
Based on some past reviews I was hesitant to book Our Wedding Movie, but for our small wedding I couldn’t fathom paying the prices of most other vendors. After speaking with the owner, Guy, he assured me all would be well if I returned the documents he needed when requested so he can do his properly.
I was on top of my duties. I did have to follow up a couple times to ensure they received everything and to make final payment. A couple days before Guy, sent a confirmation of final details and who would be our videographer.
Jimmy arrived on the wedding day! What a nice guy! He was professional, patient, and all though our reception was not filled with to much of the traditional speeches and dances, he was interactive and made sure to capture special moments that did occur!
Our video arrived in my inbox 2 weeks before the promised date and we love it! Thank you Guy and Jimmy for capturing our special day!
Do not book this vendor. It’s been 108 days past our wedding and 15 past the guaranteed date of completion…and I have received NOTHING. We also had to hound Guy (the point of contact and videographer) to give him the final payment. All immediate communication from him stopped after we signed the contract. I’m beyond upset and I hope we get our video. I should’ve paid attention to the Yelp reviews that stated almost the exact same thing as we’re going through. Spend the extra money and go elsewhere.
If I could rate 0/5, I would. This company has been very unprofessional and has been dishonest. Our wedding occurred the week that COVID went live (March 21,2020)what originally intended to be a ceremony and reception of 200+ guests, turned into an intimate ceremony of 10 at our home. Due to the quick and unexpected occurrence we requested a refund for the services that we never rendered. Guy (the videographer/owner) agreed to such and stated that deposit was non refundable but would return remaining balance. After a year we received not even half of the refund and was told that we would receive the remainder within 3 months. I chose to be very reasonable due to the toil of the pandemic and the hardship most businesses occurred. As of this year it’s been 2 years and I’ve yet to receive a refund. I’ve left messages and messages, emails and emails, just to be ignored. I’m now pursuing legal action for a due that is owed to me. I would not recommend this business due to the professionalism and dishonesty of the business. This company made the disappointment of not having my dream wedding even worst
Andy, the videographer we got, did an excellent job. He was pleasant to work with on the day, and did a great job in terms of both shot selection and technique. The edited video looks great, and getting the raw footage as well was a nice bonus. The other reviews' notes about communication aren't wrong; it could sometimes be worrying not to hear anything at times (just given the existing uncertainty COVID brought to everything). But overall this was a good choice and would recommend with that caveat.
If I could give 0 stars, I would. This company is the biggest joke. It sounds great based on the pricing, but after you pay the down payment, you will not hear from him.
A month out from my wedding, I have emailed 5+ times. No response. I get it, vendors are incredibly busy. But to hear absolutely NOTHING, is unacceptable. I thankfully found another videographer a week before the wedding, and cancelled with this joke of a company. Emailed to tell them we were cancelling, and still have not heard a single thing.
If communication is important to you, do not go with this company. Even if the price is good, there are other companies out there who are just as reasonable. DONT waste your money here if video is important to you.
If I could give 0 stars I would. Communication and actual product was awful. Their communication was great up until when I put a deposit down and then they ghosted me. Sent me a form to fill out a week before the wedding of time and details and whenever an invoice needed to be paid but that’s it. I received no communication after the wedding and reached out several times after to find out when I would get my video. They violated our contract and sent the video over a month later than what was written in my contract and after numerous email and phone calls were made. Didn’t feel personal or like my wedding was really cared about. Price is the only good thing about this place but there is a reason why they are so cheap. Please use your money wisely and invest it into a videography company that has great customer service and really cares about you and your wedding.
When I booked this vendor over a year ago, I thought it seemed like a great deal. I read lots of great reviews, saw some negatives, but I like to give the benefit of the doubt with that, and most of what I saw was positive. Fast forward to today, two weeks before my wedding, we notified 'Our Wedding Movie' in February that we had relocated our wedding to our back yard because COVID, and they responded back very quickly that we were good as it was still in their service area. That we WOULD receive a form 3 weeks before our wedding date to confirm venue, times, etc. 3 weeks before was last Saturday, nothing. Call, no answer, email, no reply. Multiple attempts at both, nothing, until yesterday when I called and left another VM telling them this felt very uncomfortable for me. I expressed my concerns at other reviews showing this to be a pattern of behavior from them. First thing next morning, I have the form in my inbox, no call back, no message apologizing, nothing; just a form in my inbox that I have no good feelings about.
'Our Wedding Movie' puts on a good front at first, but then when it comes down to the deadlines, they drop the ball. They leave you hanging. That is not an experience any Groom or Bride should have to have leading into their wedding day. Things can be stressful enough, why do they add to it?
I would not book this vendor again if I was asked, I am already looking at alternatives to replace them, because I don't trust them.
Very professional and punctual. Thank you for capturing this very important day and making it special for us.
If you would have asked me on my wedding day if I would recommend them then yes 100%. They were a little hard to reach at some points but i was never concerned.
However, 16 months after our wedding I would not recommend them at all. We ordered the video discs and I started reaching out 2 months after our wedding wanting an update. No response. I called/emailed monthly with no response. 16 MONTHS later I threatened legal action and they immediately sent me my wedding video. The disc arrived with only 5 minutes of audio!!! They didn't even check to see if the disc worked. I still have gotten no response from them at all! This is unbelievable. I tried to give them the benefit of doubt because of COVID but not anymore.
We love our videos so much- we did both the highlight and full film. The full film totally captures our day and was the perfect option for us, our entire mass was captured. I thought that our videographer, Jimmy, was so professional and wonderful. He got the greatest shots and even stayed longer when our schedule was off a little bit. He stayed out of the way and worked so well with our photo team. Overall, we are so happy for choosing Our Wedding Movie - the cost, final product and experience was wonderful! The only downside was that getting in contact with Guy was a bit difficulty after the wedding.
I was actually pretty nervous about having a videographer prior to the wedding day. It felt too over-the-top for our small wedding, but all of the previous couples I talked to said it was either their biggest regret (not having one) or best choice (having one) so I followed their advice.
Jimmy was so respectful the whole day! He was not in anyone's faces, and most of the day I could hardly tell he was there. Most of the time, he was around the photographers, which I thought was a great idea (if there's already a camera, might as well be a second!). I haven't received the movie yet, but I know it's going to be lovely and capture so many special moments from our day.
Our wedding Movie did not one but two of our family members weddings. The quality was good. It's all about the details. Working with Guy was great. He answered all my calls and questions. They specialize in only videography which is a good thing. They also have the latest technology (drones & HD video). It does take anywhere from 60-90 days to get the video back but it's worth the wait. Customer service from beginning to end has been great. I would definitely recommend this company to all my family and friends . Thanks you for documenting & creating memories for both of my nephew's wedding.
Our wedding date was originally in less than two months, and due to the pandemic, we've had to postpone it. I've left several voicemail messages and have sent 3 email Messages to Guy here on the Knot over the last month with no response whatsoever...no communication at all!
Terrance was the videographer we had! He was so nice and make the whole process fun! I would definitely recommend this company and ask for T! You can tell the way he was recording he is a very artistic person and very creative! I cannot wait to get our video!
If I could give ZERO stars, I would. This company is an absolute joke. From lack of communication to the complete and apparent inexperience of the staff. My husband and I were so excited to watch our wedding video, and when it finished, we were left horrifically disappointed. First of all, they spelled our names wrong in the video. This can be changed, I know. However, our names are clearly stated not only within the video itself, by capturing personalized wedding decor, but in emails and the contract itself. This just proves that these people are not paying attention at all, and don't give a damn about your video. Second, the ceremony was captured, and speeches and dances - and then the second hour of video was the videographer standing on the dance floor recording some of the most random moments like people talking (inaudibly) or walking around. No interviews with the bridal party, parents, etc.. The end of the video is absolutely ridiculous as well. It just cuts out. In the middle of a song, recording everyone dancing, it just ends. Trying to get a hold of Guy, is just laughable. Doesn't return emails or calls promptly IF AT ALL. I had to follow up with my messages and emails a week after they were sent EVERY time. I would never, in a million years, recommend this company to anyone. If you're looking for a beautiful memory that you can be proud to watch, keep looking, this isn't your company. Our video certainly reflects the company that produced it, as it is complete and utter GARBAGE.
My husband I weren’t 100% sure if we were going to spend the money on a videographer initially. Deciding to go with our wedding movie was the best decision ever! Not only were they more affordable than other options, but they were one of the best vendors we worked with! I was so impressed with our final product. Jimmy our videographer was awesome and captured our day perfectly! This will be something we cherish for years to come and I am so thankful!
Our Wedding Movie was a great company to work with, who also offer reasonable pricing. Our videographer showed up on time and captured every special moment. He also worked great with our photographer so they never got in each other’s way. We were able to pick out the music we wanted to play throughout the video. They also use a wireless microphone on the groom to capture the entire ceremony. Our video is an hour and 45 minutes so we definitely got a lot of footage. We are so happy that we will always be able to look back on our special day forever.
My wife and I got married September 28, and had the videographer booked way ahead of time.
Initially, everything was fine. We got our quote quickly and it was a great price. Between signing the contract and the wedding day, it was rather difficult to get a response from them.
Around 8 weeks after our wedding, I mailed Guy to check on the progress of our wedding video. The response I received seemed like I was an inconvenience to him, and simply stated that my contract says 90 days - I understand that, however I don't feel that asking for a progress update is too much to ask.
On the night of our wedding, our videographer (Tobias I believe) attempted to leave 45 minutes early. He came to us and asked if there's anything else we needed before he left, despite this being significantly before he was supposed to leave, with the bouquet toss having not even been done yet. I was forced to grab my iPhone and search through my emails to prove to him that I had scheduled him to be there until 10pm. I find this disgraceful that something so simple was not communicated effectively by the company, resulting in unnecessary stress on my wedding day.
We have just received our finished video. Firstly, I must admit it meets what you would expect. The visual quality isn't fantastic, quite pixely at some points, and sound quality is awful (can't hear either of our vows). I understand this is partly due to the church restricting the videographers positioning, and the fact that the company charge such a small fee. Overall, if you want a high quality video memory of your day, go find another videographer. If you simply want a video to send to family and friends that couldn't make it and are on a budget, this is a decent option. Quite simply you get what you pay for quality wise.
I would only recommend using this company if your budget is very limited. If I could go back, I would spend the extra $ for a better quality video and better service
Amazing work!!!! Where should I start? We met with Guy a few months before for our daughter's Quinceanera. Guy was very professional and very straight forward. He explained every detailed and was very helpful. Kevin was our videographer and he was amazing. He was very professional and great to work with. I wouldn't change a thing. I would recommend "Our Wedding Movie" to anyone.. If you are looking for affordable prices and great quality Guy is your guy..
Just got our video back - it looks fantastic!! They did a great job the day of, super professional, friendly and did exactly what I wanted. Highly highly recommend!!
Communication with the owner Guy is horrible. We had to keep reaching out to them to in the weeks leading up to our wedding asking for the form he said would be sent. We filled that out and requested a dvd. We finally receive the download 3 months after the wedding with no dvd. I had to reach out everyday for 2 weeks before he responded! Horrible customer service and Guy is extremely unprofessional. Will not recommend!
I haven't gotten the video back yet but the videographer was on time and professional.
My wife and I had the pleasure of having Chris from Our wedding Movie be the videographer for our wedding. Chris was professional and did a great job capturing the important moments of the night. Our movie came out great and my wife and I were able to happily relive our perfect day. We highly recommend Our weeding Movie for anyone looking for a videographer to record their perfect day.
Videographer came highly recommended by Aberdeen Manor. I am very pleased with the professional performance from the crew. The bride and groom selected the video package and I was able to upgrade the package a week before the wedding without a problem. The crew asked if I wanted them to stay longer since the none of the dancing had started, I was very pleased that I was given ample notice instead of the crew packing up and leaving.
Our videographer Julian was absolutely fantastic! He was extremely professional and had great attention to details. Our video turned out amazing and he captured every moment I hoped for and ones I didn’t even think of, but am so grateful that he did ! I would highly recommend Julian, he is absolutely fabulous! And our wedding video turned out absolutely perfect!
Me and my husband loved our wedding video! They were fast to respond, on time, and the video turned out great. The picture was really clear and I really liked how the music was incorporated into the video. Our wedding video had very affordable prices too! I would recommend them to any of my friends :)
Chris was INCREDIBLE! He made our day so special!! He was able to get some many great details and memories on the video he made us. He was so prompt and has such a fun, lively personality! He made us feel super comfortable in front of the video camera. I am so glad I went with Our Wedding Movie, Inc. I highly recommend them for your wedding or any special occasion.
At the beginning of wedding planning we weren’t sure if we were going to hire a videographer or not. Our photographer recommended Our Wedding Movie and when we saw how reasonable the prices were, decided to to hire them for our wedding this past July and get the highlights to play at our later reception, in addition to the video as a keepsake. I knew I’d be too nervous to take everything in the day of!
I’m a little embarrassed to say I’ve watched the highlight video which is under four minutes, more times than I’d like to admit and already watched the video twice! Its definitely worth it to us to share it with close family that appear in the video and those that couldn’t make it as well as for our own memories. Watching it immediately takes me back to they day and they captured some endearing moments with my husband as well as friends and family which will be even more cherished as we age and some of them are gone.
That said obviously we are very happy with the final product and pricing . They were easy to book and answered all our questions.
The reason for four stars is Our coordinator had a little trouble getting a response from them to confirm the time and schedule for our timeline but it eventually got done and They were on time the day of and got right to business, caused no issues. We had to reach out a few times to get a response on receiving the final product but it was less than a week before we got in touch and we received it the night day. We did discover a small error they quickly corrected but be mindful of how long you have to request any changes or corrections. All in all, I would absolutely recommend them . We are very happy with our choice.
Julian was the absolute best! He captured our wedding SO beautifully. Everyone who’s watched our video couldn’t hold back their tears within the first few minutes of our video. Julian was punctual and so polite! There was so much going on, I wasn’t sure how our video would turn out but it was the candid moments and small details along with when he cued our song choices in just brought it all together. Also, you didn’t even notice he was there either so nothing felt staged. My now husband and I seriously can’t speak highly enough for the service he provided. If you’re considering Our Wedding Movie to capture your special day, BOOK THEM - you won’t regret it! :)
If you want stress the weeks leading up to your wedding- this is the vendor to book! Three weeks before our wedding, we sent 4 emails and our wedding coordinator sent 2. He did not respond to any. We tried the number we had for Guy and it was disconnected. We found another number, he then proceeds to START an argument that he had received only 1 email. We offered to send screenshots, he said no. When we asked him to confirm our times he said, “Whatever you wrote on the sheet”. We decided that if he’s acting like this a week before the wedding, we don’t know if he would even show up on the wedding day. We canceled -he sent us a “cancel agreement” on our wedding day. What a professional thing to do! So happy we picked a different company. Read the other negative reviews closely.
Going into wedding planning, I wasn't sure if I wanted a videographer. My husband really wanted one so we decided to price it out to see how expensive it would be. Our Wedding Movie was the perfect compromise. We got an excellent price so that we can have a movie to capture our day forever. We opted for the bronze package so that we could get our vows and first dance to show our kids some day. Unfortunately my grandparents also ended up not being able to attend, so I am so glad my husband talked me into getting a video so we can go over there to relive our day with them.
We couldn’t be happier with the video of our wedding day! Exactly what we had envisioned at a great price.
Outstanding! Guy was so great to work with from the start and Christian was the best on our day. He was professional, personable, and great with everyone! I love our video! It is exactly what I wanted and more. Could not recommend these guys more! So great! Thank you!
Our Wedding Movie was probably one of my favorite wedding vendors! We were in a bind 2 weeks before our wedding as my originally booked videographer bailed on us and we contacted Guy and met with him not even 24 hours later. He was super responsive and willing to help us out with such late notice to him and his team. We are so pleased with our footage and have received many compliments on it from family and friends! They are very affordable and I love how we were able to build our own package to get everything we wanted without the extra cost of things we didn't care for. We would book them again in a heartbeat, thank you Guy and Jimmy!

Amazing! Professional, friendly, helpful and the final product is perfect! I called Guy and he was so helpful and friendly and asked all the right questions so that we could decide what package was best for us, he was great to work with. The day of the wedding, Christian, our videographer arrived on time and was professional, friendly and great to work with. He did an excellent job and he made the day so easy and effortless, he captured all of our most wonderful moments of the day without being in the way like some videographers that I have seen at other weddings I have attended. I shopped around and the price points for the packages offered and for the quality of the product and service is unbeatable. If I could I would give this vendor 10 out of 10 stars. Excellent service and product! We love our wedding movie! I'm so happy I found this vendor, thank you Our Wedding Movie!
Terrance from our wedding movie was amazing! He made the experience unforgettable and made all of us feel comfortable.We couldn't stop laughing! The finished product was amazing and my husband and I are thrilled and so happy we picked our wedding movie to capture the day!
Terrance from Our Wedding Movie was very professional and easy to work with. He was a fly on the wall capturing all the important aspects of our day, which was exactly what we were looking for. He always had a smile on his face and a cheerful demeanor. He captured all the right moments at my sister's wedding. Watching the video brought tears to my eyes and it was so nice to have these memories captured. I highly recommend Terrance from Our Wedding Movie for your next event! You will not regret it! https://ourweddingmovie.com/
Originally my wife and I were not going to have a videographer for our wedding in order to stay within our budget. Boy are we glad we changed our tune and found Our Wedding Movie! We were fortunate enough to work with Vic on our wedding day. He was very easy to work with and was able to capture all the important moments throughout the day without it feeling like someone is hovering over your shoulder. He was able to work perfectly in coordination with our photographers so they could all get the shots they needed without stepping on each other’s toes. We recently received our full highlight reel and movie and are so so glad we ended up with a videographer. Having the ability to go back through and rewatch our wedding day through the lens of a guest allowed us to see our friends/family enjoying the day in a way that we could not have when we were Bride/Groom. I highly recommend using a videographer for your wedding and more specifically, Our Wedding Movie, to capture your special day. These films will be an amazing way to relive our wedding and continue to share memories with our families.
We were originally going to forego the videographer, assuming pictures and friend's videos would be sufficient, but instead called "Our Wedding Movie” as a last minute add on. I’m glad we did because I really wanted, and received, a basic copy of the ceremony and special moments throughout the night.
While our videographer was pleasant and captured the main parts of the evening, Guy, the owner, made the whole process difficult and uneasy. The only time I received a quick, immediate response was when I input the initial inquiry and made the deposit. After that, he was nowhere to be found. I even had to HOUND HIM to make my final payment so I wouldn’t default on the contract and lose my deposit. Just radio silence. No confirmation unless I asked for it multiple times.
I’m not sure if it’s because we did not get a platinum package, if he’s just extremely busy and unorganized, or if it's because he's just apathetic, but I would not recommend this company based on the customer service alone.
We used "Our Wedding Movie" for our videographer for our wedding. The finished product was beyond what we expected. We paid for the Gold package and were very satisfied with the end results. The person on location the day of our wedding was Christian and he was very friendly and easy to work with. The prices are very reasonable. The only reason I gave a 4/5 instead of 5/5 is because communication via email was not the greatest. Slow response time until the week before the wedding when we had a form to fill out for the videographer assistant to know where to go for the day and for the videographer, Guy, to know what music we wanted as background music. Phone calls are the best form of communication that I found. The DVD we received as the final product looked like a movie starring me and my husband. We are very happy with choosing Our Wedding Movie as the videographer for our special day.
Guy was simply fantastic! He helped to capture our day wonderfully, and we will treasure our movie for years to come!
Our Wedding Movie was great all around. Their accommodations are great. Their packages cover everything you could think to have for your wedding day. We had Terrance for our videographer, and he was fantastic. He worked well with our photographer, and consistently made us laugh throughout the day. It felt like he was a friend that we had known forever. The final video is great quality, and really captured our day.
Our Wedding Movie was fantastic. We weren't sure we were going to go with a videographer but my husband's brother and sister in law said it was the best decision that they made. When meeting with our photographer he suggested Our Wedding Movie to us and after checking out their samples we were convinced this was something we should do.Their package prices are very reasonable and they allow for flexibility and lots of add ons if you choose to do so. Our videographer was "T" and he was amazing to work with! He was so much fun and smiling the whole time. He was running around the entire time and getting all kinds of angles and his creativity paid off because our video turned out better than I could've hoped for. It was so nice to be able to see the day through another person's eyes and to be honest as the bride the day was a blur so having this to be able to look back on is priceless. I love how they did the highlight video as well. It's nice to have a quick look back at the day instead of watching the whole video.
We chose Our Wedding Movie as our videographers and we are so happy we did. They communicated smoothly and the videographer was so nice and helpful. He got moments that we didn't even think about asking for and were so glad he was there for. We haven't seen our video yet but based on their service, we can't wait! It was also affordable but with good reviews..sometimes hard to find!
First of all, if you are looking for professional quality video this is the right place! Starting from the first conversation we knew we had picked the perfect company. Guy was so knowledgeable and lets you know exactly whats going to happen on your big day. Everything went very smooth and before we knew it we received our wedding videos! We LOVE it and watch it at least once if not twice a month.. They are the nicest people and gave us such a wonderful memory to keep forever. I recommend them to everyone I know!
We weren’t going to use a videographer but after I was referred to Our Wedding Movie I looked up their work right away and said yes, this is the one! We had the pleasure of working with Jimmy B. on our wedding day and he was so fun, personable and professional to work with!! We couldn’t of been happier with him. We highly recommend using Our Wedding Movie for your big day or any future events! We look forward to viewing our movie for the first time once it’s edited!!

We weren’t going to get a videographer but changed our minds last minute. So glad we found them and so glad we got video of our wedding day! They do a great job for a low price.
We were undecided on if we should have a videographer for our wedding. It wasn't until the week before our wedding that we decided to pull the trigger on hiring someone! Our Wedding Movie was so accommodating and affordable. Our video turned out perfect and we are so happy we are able to go back and re-live our special day. They are professional and I would highly recommend this company!
Long overdue review as our wedding was back in December, but better late than never! We were extremely pleased with our video and overall service. Guy was our contact and Christian was the videographer. Both very professional and friendly. We would highly recommend Our Wedding Movie. Great quality and great price!
I don't even know where to begin! I was originally not sure that I wanted to spend the money for videography but a lot of friends told me that I would regret it if I didn't. I shopped around for a while trying desperately to find a reasonably priced videographer that still produced awesome videos and boy did I find that and more. Julian and Amanda absolutely crushed our day and we are so in love with both productions. I have watched it at least 10 times and still cry. Your wedding day goes by in the blink of an eye and it's amazing to see all of the little things that you didn't originally catch. I will treasure these forever and can't wait to show them to our kids. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to Our Wedding Movie (specifically Julian, Amanda, and Guy who were absolutely a pleasure to work with)!
Our Wedding Movie did such a beautiful job on our video! Anthony was our videographer and he was awesome! Got our video when promised! Definitely worth every penny!
Our Wedding Movie was an excellent company to work with. Guy and his staff were very helpful from the beginning planning to the end production of our wedding movie! Vic (our videographer) was very professional and went above and beyond to capture our special moments. Our final movie was beautifully and truly allows us to relive our special day all over again. You cannot go wrong with choosing this company to capture your special day.
We are very happy with how our wedding video turned out from Our Wedding Movie! We chose to have one videographer & have them for the entire ceremony & reception. We chose Our Wedding Movie because of their extremely reasonable prices (compared to other vendors). We hadn't budgeted for a videographer originally but then decided we wanted one, so we wanted to be cost-efficient. The price was great!
The visual quality of the video is amazing! It's beautiful, transitions nicely between shots, and really captures the emotion of the day!
The audio quality was good, but it could have been a little better. For example, there are parts throughout the ceremony that are super quiet (where we have to turn the volume up a lot) and some that are really loud (where we then have to turn the volume back down). It could have been 5-stars if they had adjusted the levels of the audio so it was the same throughout the video. Definitely not a huge deal (all the audio was captured!), but could have brought it to the next level of professional-sounding.
We received the video 3 months after our wedding. It has been SO fun to relive the day with our video! We got all the raw footage, which is really nice. We chose digital delivery & also opted to pay $25 to get 2 copies of it on blu-ray too.
One thing I recommend is to talk with them beforehand to let them know if there are any moments you want captured that are out of the ordinary. They caught every big moment, but I wish I would have asked them to capture my husband's face as I entered the ceremony.
Overall, we are very happy with our decision to go with Our Wedding Movie! The quality we got for the price we paid was excellent!
Our wedding movie was great to work with & captured our day perfectly. Guy was very responsive & professional when I had questions/booking with him, follow ups etc. I also really enjoyed working with our photographer Anthony, he made me feel very comfortable on our wedding day and did a great job capturing our day. Excellent value for the money in comparison to anything else you can get in Chicago. I highly definitely recommend them!
Our Wedding Movie did a wonderful job from beginning to end. Very professional and amazing delivery to make our special day even more special. The final result is astonishing, a sensational video that allowed us and our family to feel all the emotions of all over again. Last but not least, Jimmy and Guy speak French, that was a big plus for our French-American wedding, merci!
We contacted Guy through The Knot fairly last minute (less than one month before our wedding) and they were happy to accommodate! We were only looking for the ceremony to be recorded, but they don't have ceremony-only packages—which turned out to be a great thing. The video captured during the reception was excellent, and we got many great memories in it! Unfortunately, it has been awhile, and I forgot who our videographer was. I believe Devon was his name, but I can't be sure. Either way, he did a fantastic job for an affordable price, and we definitely recommend Our Wedding Movie!
My husband and I LOVE our wedding trailer and video. Guy was very professional and a pleasure to work with! We are so happy we chose Our Wedding Movie as our videographer.
We were extremely pleased with Our Wedding Movie - it was such a special moment when my husband and I finally got to sit down and watch our whole video together. I'm so glad we looked into getting it done professionally because Our Wedding Movie made it quite beautifully and really captured the feelings from our big day. Julian (our videographer) was sweet, funny, and totally helpful throughout the whole day! We're thankful that we had him there to capture our day and everything it entailed.
We are so happy with "Our Wedding Movie"! This was a surprise from my mom as part of our wed
