Toast filmed our wedding in Raleigh, NC in October 2023. They did a great job blending into the crowd and capturing the best shots! We loved our highlight film and documentary edit...

. They also gave us the opportunity to make edits and changes to our highlight film until it was everything we dreamed of. They did a great job! We definitely recommend them for your wedding.

throughout the day. We couldn't be happier with the amazing work he did. Thank you, Jeff and the entire Toast team, for preserving our special memories so perfectly!

Toast is such an incredible company! From start to finish, they were very professional, organized and really listened to what we wanted for our perfect wedding film! We absolutely ...

love our highlight and documentary film and will cherish them both forever! Our experience with Denver (our videographer) was amazing and he made sure to capture every moment. My experience with the editing team was also great! They were very timely and we had our perfect video very quickly after our wedding. I would absolutely recommend Toast as it was a phenomenal experience all around!

They were professional in communication, arrival at the venue, and even the post capture process. We appreciated that there was an in-depth pre-wedding questionnaire that they took...

seriously and even allowed multiple rounds of edits afterwards. The person who taped us was friendly and dressed appropriately. We elected to have a highlight film and a documentary edit for our wedding. The highlight film was fantastic, which is a testament to their post production considering the actual video capture was horrible. In the documentary edit and in the raw footage(we paid extra for this) a significant portion of the wedding was captured from the waist up and that was the only shot available. There were even times during the first dance, father daughter dance, and mother son dance where the subject would move out of frame multiple times. There were also times that the main subject would be blurry(bride walking down the aisle) and a bridesmaid speech didn't have audio captured. Note that there was time given for appropriate setup, a timeline provided in advance, and we even paused for a couple minutes to make sure a groomsman's microphone was setup correctly before proceeding in his speech. Even though they did a great job in all other aspects, we feel the actual video captured is most important since it's not something that can be redone or touched up later. After this feedback was received, the owner was receptive in hearing our issues and apologized (which we appreciated). Ultimately, he refunded us $350. We felt this was a low offer for a refund but, at this point we were exhausted from the process and didn't want to pursue the issue any further. After spending $3000 for a once in a lifetime moment that many family members who weren't able to attend didn't enjoy viewing, we feel strongly that anybody considering toast wedding films look elsewhere.

Hi Dean, thank you for your review and I appreciate you outlining the positive aspects of ...

your experience as well as the constructive criticisms. I am glad you are happy with the Highlight Film as that is the primary film we are shooting for on the day of. It sounds like we agree that the footage captured for the Highlight Film turned out well and I’m happy about that! We feel your film is a lovely representation of you two, your story, and your day: https://vimeo.com/779698896 The Documentary Edit is made up of the raw footage that is assembled in one long video so you can relive the day in real time. It is not a creative edit and it often includes some of the less refined footage of the day. In the instances where the Documentary Edit is of primary importance to the couple, we often recommend 2 videographers, to focus more on the complete capture of the day equally. That said, I agree that some shots throughout the day could have been better. Any time we are less than perfect, I am always open to finding a fair resolution as we will always do what’s right if someone has a less-than-perfect experience. After speaking with you and Amanda I recommended a proportional refund based on the items you were unhappy with. In your case, this was a 12% discount to start but I am always open to the couple taking the driver’s seat and deciding what you think is fair. I’m sorry the initial offer of 12% did not meet your expectations. Thanks so much for your feedback and for taking time to outline your experience. It helps us to always strive for perfection in the future for all of our couples:)

We were very particular about hiring vendors for our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with Toast Wedding Films! They made the process as a whole sooo easy. We were a bit ...

hesitant at first because you don't actually get to know who will be working with you on your wedding day, but Molly was able to reassure us of their process. Toast had us fill out a survey of preferences, and we were matched with the absolutely PERFECT videographer for our day! Nathan was such a joy to have capture our wedding. We couldn't have been happier with him. He blended in so seamlessly he felt like one of the wedding party! He was so polite, funny, and easy to work with. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and was very patient with all of our chaos! Overall, we were extremely pleased with the service from Toast Wedding Films.

We had a great experience with Toast Wedding Films for our wedding day! They reached out to us almost immediately after we contacted them about our interest. They were very helpful...

every step of the way from talking us through our initial wants in our wedding film to giving us a detailed questionnaire to make sure we had everything we wished for. Our wedding film itself is beautiful and something we will treasure forever! We are so happy we decided to have them be a part of our day and can't wait to share this film with our children one day!

I spent a lot of time and research looking for a videographer. I am so happy I did! Toast Wedding Film did an amazing job. I could not have asked for anyone better to work with. ...

They made sure that we were satisfied with our video and went above and beyond to make it perfect. Everyone that I have showed my video to said it was the best they have seen. I would recommend Toast Wedding Film for anyone's event or wedding! We are so lucky to have a video that we have already watched hundreds of times and will treasure for the rest of our lives!

Zach and the team at Toast did a phenomenal job capturing moments from our special day. I still get goosebumps each time I watch it! The videographer worked hard to get to know ...

us and our story. I didn’t realize why this was so important until I saw the video. There are so many small details and images that are not realized or forgotten in the moment. They seemed to know just what to look for and when, blending together a visual narrative that is truly one of a kind. Go with Toast, you wont be disappointed!
