ideo! We get compliments all the time from all our family members saying how amazing and high end the editing came out.

ruly captured exactly what I envisioned for our wedding video—every important moment, emotion, and detail. She was so sweet and made us feel completely comfortable, all while getting the best angles without ever being intrusive. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and would highly recommend Toast Weddings and Ruta to any couple looking for a talented and reliable videographer.
We chose Toast Weddings as our videographer and they did not disappoint! I saw them voted as "Best of Weddings" the past few years, now I can see why. The quality of their videos, ...
the crisp transitions along with sound is phenomenal, and their pricing is competitive. I searched through so many videographers and nothing caught my eye. It was either really cheesy or the quality wasn't that great. Sierra and Julianna at Toast Weddings were great at communicating and answering any questions I had. They have you fill out a detailed questionnaire about you & your partner, the event, and regarding what you want in your video. I opted for the emotional feel and they delivered.
Marcin was our videographer and he was with us for 10 hours (what a trooper). He was very professional and did such an amazing job capturing sentimental moments. We cannot thank you guys enough for being a part of our special day and giving us content that we can keep forever.

rofessional, reasonably priced, and hard working. One of the best wedding vendors I used on our wedding day! Thank you again for creating a beautiful video that we can cherish forever.
We had a great experience with Toast Wedding Films at our early 2022 wedding. We almost didn't hire a videographer, and are so glad we did. The initial consultation/planning proces...
s was very informative, professional, and straightforward. Appreciated that we were able to pay online - great tech interface with this company vs. other antiquated wedding vendors. Customer service was much better than other vendors we worked with as well - the team was generally quickly responsive via email to our questions and requests. Our videographer was wonderful - he brought great energy to the day, and the shots he captured are a testament to that! He was able to blend into the event seamlessly. We really like the final product - purchased both long and short films. The editing process of making small changes was a bit slow/choppy - some miscommunications, but we mostly got there - we were somewhat limited with the music/footage we wanted to use - not sure if that was just a reflection of the package we selected. We felt Toast, while not inexpensive, was reasonably priced relative to other videographers we considered. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Saul was our videographer for the event. Very easy-going. Very professional. Fun! And personable. I'm looking forward to seeing the final product but confident it's going to be gr...
eat. Thanks for setting everything up Toast Wedding Films.
Toast wedding Films was fantastic! Very professional and easy to communicate with.
I knew that I wanted our special day filmed from the very beginning, but being the picky bride that I am I knew the vision I had, and I wanted it to be perfect! Toast did just that...
. I did my research on a lot of different Videographers in the KC area, and for the quality and price, Toast was by far the best. They listened to exactly what we wanted, and made it even better than we had imagined! Tim was great, he made the process so painless-he really was like a fly on the wall for the entire day, and we all had so much fun. Thank you Tim for giving us these memories to watch and cherish forever!
Zach was easy to work with throughout the whole process from initial meeting to reviewing the footage after the wedding. Daniel was our videograher for our wedding day. He also sup...
er easy to work with. The wedding video was excellent and he was willing to do minor modifications. The footage from the entire day was given to us hassle free and split up into manageable chunks for ease of use.
