Pretty Films is spectacular! They are very easy to work with and fun to be around. They have top of the line equipment and do a great job of capturing all the great moments of your wedding day! I am so glad we picked them to video our wedding; they are amazing!! They not only put together a video of your wedding day as a whole, but they also put together a sneak peak video that they post on facebook the beginning of the following week that shows some of the highlights of the day. This allows you, your spouse,and friends and family to look back at your wedding day before you get the final video. I would recommend them to anyone!!

I knew before we hired Pretty Films to be our videographers that we were making the best decision. They are both amazing and are gifted at what they do. They are so sweet and down to earth, we could not have imagined anyone else there to capture our special moment. Our wedding guests and friends/family who were unable to attend have not been able to stop talking about our sneak peak wedding video. They're all sure it's going to go viral. Thanks guys!!

We used Pretty Films for our wedding videographer and they were one of the best decisions we made for our entire wedding. At first, we were hesitant about whether it was worth doing videography at all. After we received our preview video back, we were so glad that we did it. It captured so many things that photography doesn't. They truly wanted the best for us and to capture our personalities during the process. I highly recommend them and I am so glad we chose them.

I am in love with my wedding video! I gave Pretty Films very little direction (I figured they know best) and they really came through in more ways than one. Their presence was barely noticed, yet they caught every special moment and more. They accommodated my every request and worked so hard to edit out the wind on what had to be the most windy day ever for an outdoor wedding! Pretty Films is truly talented and offers great pricing too.

On the day, the team was so considerate. They got amazing footage of the entire thing, great sound quality from our outdoor ceremony and we didn't even notice them running around to capture it all. They were the best!! I highly recommend!!

Stop researching and just hire Pretty Films! If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. You’re not going to find a more authentic edit of your wedding. I looked at a ton of portfolios and felt like I could insert any couple into each video, who wants that?! When I came across Pretty Films work, I immediately fell in love. Each video had its own essence, its own story... each one seemed to portray the personalities of the couple and the feelings that the wedding day exuded. Every wedding is different and magical in its own way and Pretty Films does a fantastic job expressing that in their work.

I'm not sure how we stumbled on to Alena and Pretty Films but we are certainly happy we did. The videos she has on her site will give you a good idea of his style, but it is quite a different experience to see your own video! Alena was one of our more responsive vendors and balanced giving us guidance with hearing what our preferences would be. Our whole experience blew away our expectations and we have received many compliments for the videos she created. Thank you so much for capturing our special day Alena and Pretty Films!

Alena is a TRUE TALENT, and her dedication to her work is evident on every level. Pretty Films is here for you if you want your own unique cinematic love story told and captured on your wedding day!! While my husband and I were planning our wedding during this Pandemic, Alena was very accommodating and helped us out. I've never worked with anyone better!!

Pretty Films is an excellent choice. Alena and Maribel were well-prepared, organized, and professional.

And, of course, the product was spectacular:)

They were very responsive throughout the process and collaborated well with the rest of our wedding vendors, even helping to ensure that our day ran smoothly. They also provided video of your ceremony, speeches, and dances, which I love, and our video is fantastic.

My fiancé and I stumbled upon a video made by Pretty Films of a couple who wed at the venue we were considering when we were looking for a location for our wedding. We fell in love with both the film and the setting right away. Pretty Films perfectly captured the beauty of both the couple and nature! That's when we knew we had to hire them as our videographer! We ended up booking them as well as the venue! They were fantastic to work with and perfectly captured our special day!

My husband and I work in the news industry so we understand editing and putting stories together... they get a 11/10! If you’re looking for good people, amazing talent and an off the hook wedding video to last you forever.. Pretty Films is the way to go.

My wedding planner introduced me to Pretty Films. Alena and her team produced the most stunning video for my wedding. The teaser was completed in less than a week, demonstrating their impeccable timing. They arrived on time, got along well with my photographer, and made everyone feel so at ease that they forgot they were being filmed. Hiring Pretty Films will not disappoint you. They are a high-quality organization.

Our memorable day was beautifully and poignantly captured by Pretty Films. Like our friends and family, we greatly enjoyed every second of the highlight clip. Simply beautiful work! Before the wedding, they conduct a very thorough intake of your preferences and the schedule for the big day. It's all worthwhile, and then some! Reserve them.

She was hired by my spouse to take videos of our engagement. So we made the decision to continue employing her for our wedding. She was in the engagement videos we took. When you're confused of what to do, she offers you postures to help you feel at ease. Nothing could have been better, in our opinion.Maribel from Pretty Films is AMAZING!

I HIGHLY recommend Pretty Films! My planner was Maribel for most of my wedding day and the videographers were on it! They were very organized and knew exactly what they needed to get. I wanted something different our video. I didn't want our video to be "too lovey" but more action/fast movements. I want to show the event itself. I told them all of this in the questionnaire and they NAILED IT!!

If you are undecided about getting a video made, just do it, you won’t regret it. If your budget can stretch to allow it, include audio recording. The words spoken on your wedding day are precious and so easily forgotten in the hype of the day, they really are worth capturing.

When I got the footage back, I was amazed. Pretty Films captured everything perfectly. The quality is incredible: no shakiness, complete clarity, and full videos. Most videographers are hesitant to give you anything but a teaser and short 5 minute video. I received fully edited videos: 1 minute teaser, wedding film, ceremony film, reception film, and extra footage. Every moment of the films was edited and carefully thought out. When I had a request, they immediately added something to the footage at no charge and with no hesitation.

Terrific experience! Of all of the vendors that we interviewed and worked with, Maribel was by far the fastest and most consistent responder - a huge advantage in the wedding planning process! I had finite amounts of time to plan my wedding throughout the work week, and Maribel made quick decision making within those short stretches much easier. They entirely exceeded our expectations & delivered a video that we absolutely LOVE in record speed (one week after!!).

My wife and I got married a couple months ago and chose Pretty Films as our videographer. We were so happy we did. Leading up to our event, she was extremely professional, responsive and easy to work with. During the wedding itself, she blended into the background, but was there to capture all of our special moments. Most importantly, we were so happy with how the video turned out! I would highly recommend Maribel & Pretty Films.

Choosing Pretty Films as our wedding videographer is one of our best decisions. Lei and I were fascinated by many wedding videos they posted on the website, and we were so excited that we wanted to choose them as our videographer. The moment we met with Maribel we knew that they would do a fantastic job on our wedding day. Maribel is humorous, creative, and absolutely professional. And so does her team. They were able to capture all the best moments we had, and delivered to us a wonderful highlight film that we have already watched a million times! It is worth mentioning that Maribel is also a great aero videographer, and the clips from the drone were so amazing. We are so grateful to have them as videographers on our wedding day! We had a tremendous memory!!

Truth be told, we weren't originally going to have a wedding video... At the time we thought that those funds would be more useful in other parts of the budget. As a wedding and event planner in my professional life that fact came as a surprise to everyone I talked to. But after we found out that my grandmothers would not be able to make our destination wedding, the video became a necessity... and thank goodness it did! If I had to do it all again I would have booked Maribel and the Pretty Films team immediately. From the initial consultation, to the in depth interview, they work with you on such a personal level. They really take the time to get to know you, so they are able to roll with the punches on the wedding day. While they captured every aspect of the wedding perfectly, they were never overbearing and never in our face. The film is amazing, I basically cried through the entire thing. Even the music matched us perfectly! If you haven't already booked Pretty Films... you should now!

Where do I even begin?! Maribel and her team captured my daughter’s wedding on November 7, 2021 in Boston, MA. From the minute Maribel walked into the room, it felt like we had known her for years! Her professionalism and kindness are unmatched, and her humor made everyone feel at ease! Maribel even shared with us a few sneak peaks towards the end of the wedding leaving us speechless! One of the BEST decisions my daughter could have made during the wedding planning process was hiring Pretty Films! We can’t recommend Maribel and her team enough!!

I was on the fence about hiring a videographer because some weddings I've been to, they've felt intrusive and in everyone's face. But wow, I am SO glad we decided to use Pretty films. The team was incredibly friendly and talented and creative with their shots. Day of I barely felt their presence. The wedding video was what I was most excited to see. Took them a little longer than the 30 days or less but it was completely worth it and I won't hold it against them. The video is brilliant! They are easy to work with, listened to everything we asked and made the process fun. I can't recommend them enough!
