Their videographers blended seamlessly into the background, capturing candid moments and genuine emotions without feeling intrusive. They managed to capture the essence of our wedding, highlighting the smallest details that made the day uniquely ours.
The editing was nothing short of spectacular. They masterfully weaved together footage, music, and interviews to create a cinematic masterpiece that had us reliving our wedding day with tears of joy. The attention to detail in every shot and the way they synchronized it with the music truly showcased their expertise.
Communication with Toast Wedding Films was effortless, and they were always responsive to our needs and preferences. Their dedication to ensuring our vision was realized was commendable.

We could not be happier with our experience from TOAST films.
We are still awaiting our footage, as we just got marries 3 weeks ago, but I couldn't wait any longer to share our thoughts.
From the start, everyone who I worked with and talked to was friendly, professional, and most importantly, communicative! I filled out surveys about what my husband and I wanted and imagined for our film. I hopped on calls when needed, and emails were answered promptly!
Our videographer, Marcin, was extremely kind and stayed under the radar during our day! I forgot he was even there, besides a few interactions, which is exactly what we wanted! He communicated with us before the big day, and showed up with an assistant, who was also wonderful.
He captured our moments that we requested, and made sure to check in a few times to make sure we didn't need anything else specific.
I found TOAST films through the KNOT magazine I read when I got engaged, and I loved their feed on social media. I have no doubt our footage will be amazing.
Thank you, TOAST films for filming our day at an affordable rate! We can't wait to see it all!
Much Appreciation,
Katie and Ben

I was a bridesmaid and got to work with toast. I saw how comfortable they made my sister (the bride) and her groom in front of the camera. They actually made a comment that they were having fun being in front of the camera which is so not them! Our videographer Jerry was so professional and very laid back, he even joined us for a song on the dance floor (so fun!) I can't wait to see the finished product and just know it's going to be amazing

Thank goodness we hired Toast Films for our wedding! I am extremely camera shy and they really helped our groomsmens and myself be comfortable in front of the camera. They also helped our assistant photographer get some really cool shots for both photo and video. Jerry was extremely laid back and just an all around awesome guy. I would use them again for a future event

I couldn't imagine our wedding day without Toast Films! Our videographer Jerry was fantastic. Jerry was so professional, kind, and you barely even noticed they were by your side the whole day! They gave top knotch service that was above and beyond- My shoe broke before we were leaving for the ceremony, not only did Jerry take the time to fix my shoe but he helped me put my heels back on. He also helped me with my wedding toast when I was getting nervous. Would definitely recommend toast to anyone looking for an excellent videographer

Julianna and her assistant arrived at the venue on time and ready to get started. They got drone footage, captured details wonderfully, and worked well with my photographers. She even offered to stay past the end time when she noticed people were still dancing and having a good time! Our teaser was delivered on time and we loved it! We can't wait to see the rest of the footage!

We found Toast Wedding Films on The Knot and couldn't agree with their ratings and reviews more, they are amazing! They made sure to inquire about every detail of our day beforehand and we felt really good knowing that they took the time to really capture it the way we wanted. The entire process from start to finish was collaborative, which is awesome. Our day of videographer was friendly and professional, and he did such an amazing job. We couldn't be happier with the way our films turned out!

What an incredible experience. Our videographer worked incredibly well with our photographers, our DJ, and the venue. It was such a seamless experience. He was in the background for everything in a way that wasn't intrusive or disruptive. He was like a fly on the wall WHICH WAS SO GREAT! We got everything we needed and more. Thank you TOAST WEDDING FILMS! THANK YOU DAVID!!

Toast was absolutely wonderful to work with, especially as a bride during a pandemic. They were so professional and captured every special moment. I love that they work with you to customize each part of every video afterwards so every special moment you want included is there. They also were some of the best value after researching for months. They offer more than most videographers do for a great deal. I highly recommend them and couldn’t say enough wonderful things about this company!

Toast was great to work with-- they asked for every detail that was important to us for the final video, and then allowed us edits to make it perfect. The pricing was amazing compared to other vendors. We barely saw the videographer on the actual wedding day since he blended in so well with the crowd and was never intrusive, and he gave us a memory we will cherish forever! Note to future couples: go with a longer video than you think you'll want, because it's SO beautiful to watch your day over again. And don't worry if you feel a little awkward with staged video clips, because they make you look great!!

We are so thankful that we hired Toast Weddings to capture our big day. Julianna was so easy to work with prior to our wedding and she did a great job of answering all our questions and making sure our day would run smoothly. Our videographer, Patrick, was a pleasure to work with the day of our wedding. He captured everything we wanted in a natural way without disturbing anyone. We are thankful for his flexibility and easy going attitude especially since it was over 100 degrees outside. We highly recommend Toast Weddings to capture your big day.

We used Toast Wedding Films for our wedding in June of 2017 at Swan Lake Resort. They did a wonderful job. They had a camera all day with the guys golfing , etc. And another camera with the girls getting ready, etc. They put it together wonderfully and made it possible for us to make changes before we ended up with the final project. They were helpful and patient with us during this process. This was a last minute decision to film the wedding and I am so glad we did. Toast helped to create memories we can watch again and again.
