White Elm Films

ng day were an absolute pleasure to be around! Would absolutely recommend working with White Elm Films!

eremony. They did such a perfect job capturing exactly how the day felt. I think they’re very fairly priced and the quality of the content is stellar. The film team was very nice and made things easy for everyone!

day of our wedding, the videographers were so pleasant to work with - very professional, organized, and easy-going. The final products we received were even better than we had hoped. The quality and attention to detail is self-evident, and we are so grateful While Elm captured our day so beautifully.

ryday. Thank you so much to White Elm Films and there wonderful team!

kind and patient as she explained everything to me. I’d seen their work before and felt confident after speaking with Holly. I’ll be honest, I was nervous that I wouldn’t get to meet my videographers until the day of the wedding, but looking back, it wasn’t that different from any other vendor experience. I gave clear information, my videographers showed up at my AirBnb, they introduced themselves and filming started so smoothly I barely noticed! Carmello and Dylan were my videographers and they were wonderful! Easy-going, polite, funny and invested in our day being special. Now I didn’t get to meet the people who edited our footage, but I have never been so impressed. Between Carmello, Dylan, and Holly, then seeing the edited footage, I am absolutely floored by what an incredible job this company did. The highlight reel is literally my favorite thing to watch and it’s SOO good. I really can’t say it loud enough. Videography is 100% worth it, but this company and their team are top notch professionals who gave us a video that is more valuable than what we paid. I would recommend them without question.

te Elm Films team makes sure everything is thorough but not stressful. We were asked to fill out a few forms over time, to ensure the crew knew exactly what we were looking for in our wedding video - all of which were short and to the point! On our wedding day, the team showed up in a timely manner and were very fun to work with! We surprisingly received our video in ONLY TWO MONTHS!!! The final product was a dream come true and we've watched it every day since. We would hire them over and over again if possible!

ely love our highlight video and are so glad we went with the legacy collection.

ay, they were great to work with. We just got our video back and ABSOLUTELY LOVE our video. It’s perfect and everything we couldn’t wanted!!!

were so nice and worked very well with our photographer! They captured everything they needed while allowing us to truly be in the moment. They delivered the video before the deadline and it was everything I hoped it would be and more. They overlaid our vows and speeches with beautiful clips from our day. We also got a full ceremony film and all of the raw footage to watch and cherish forever. I would highly recommend checking them out and would recommend to anyone planning their upcoming wedding.

eat. We also got our video faster than expected!

over email with answering questions. And of course our wedding video was BEAUTIFUL! The entire White Elm team is so talented and I would recommend this company to others in a heartbeat.

earlier than expected and it really showed all of our amazing highlights of the day and everything we wanted. We had two videographers and they were just so fun and amazing. Thank you White Elm Films for letting us relive our wedding day through your creative lens!

d they took charge of everything from the start! The hardest part I had to do was fill out a questionnaire which took less than 5 min. Instead of asking me questions, they coordinated with our venue and/or day of coordinator which was one less thing I had to stress about! They have many packages to choose from. They also gave our wedding video about 5 weeks after our wedding which was faster than we thought! The video is also beautiful! Highly recommend them, plus they are super friendly!

our video back so quickly and it was awesome! They captured all the important moments. My husband and I would recommend working with them.

real!!! If you need a sign of who to book for your videographer, THIS IS IT! They’re the absolute best!

instantly I wanted to hire them. And I DO NOT regret it. We went with their heritage package and received our highlight reel, documentary film & 7 hours of raw footage in under 2 months after our wedding - and the quality is unmatched, they so beautifully captured and edited our entire day!! Worth every single penny. In addition, white elm films was a very low maintenance vendor. We didn’t have any meetings, we filled out a handful of very quick and easy forms as we got closer to our day and it made it so easy for us to leave it to the pro videographers without having to have yet another meeting to go over our timeline, and talk about things we’ve repeated several times with all of our vendors. They made it so easy and brought the energy and fun day of. I truly can’t stop watching our highlight reel- it brings tears to my eyes every single time!!

questions promptly & professionally. They were super helpful when it came time for us to make decisions about song choice & the type of feel we wanted our video to give off. Flash forward to wedding day & I was a very anxious bride. They were incredibly sweet & really helped calm me down a lot! From always offering to grab me water to just telling me how beautiful everything was, those little moments meant a lot to me! My husband also made comments about what a great time they were while getting ready. They did a great job at reading the room & adjusting to whatever the vibe was! We were very pleased with them on wedding day. After the wedding comes the wait for the film. We got married end of September & didn’t expect to have the video back until January. White Elm Films delivered it to us beginning of November (way ahead of schedule)! We were so excited to receive it & immediately were taken right back to that day. Our videos came out amazing & had us balling 15 seconds in. These films are truly something we will cherish forever & can’t wait to share with our children someday. I immediately texted a recently engaged friend of ours after watching our videos & told them they should hire White Elms if they hadn’t found someone already. If you’re on the fence about hiring them, or even just about hiring a videographer in general, do it! It is so worth it & we can’t thank them enough for creating something so special.

dding day, the White Elm Films team played such a huge role in making everything go smoothly. They were so friendly, approachable, and made both me and my husband feel completely comfortable around them. They captured everything (and more!) that I could have possibly imagined. The final product is something that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. The quality, the storytelling, and the little details they included made it so much more than just a wedding video. We are beyond grateful to have had White Elm Films as part of our big day, and we can’t recommend them enough!

on was always just to review the contract, and not very personal responses. However, they blew me away with hospitality on our wedding day and were truly there to help us with everything we needed. Overall good experience.

d the quality along with an affordable price. So, we decided to use White Elm Films for our videography and we are so glad that we did! The videographer did an excellent job capturing the day's most important moments, and putting them into the final video. We also received the finished film 6 weeks after our wedding, which was a nice surprise as we did not expect it back so soon. Highly recommend White Elm Films for anyone looking for an affordable and quality videographer!

nt with the planning process. The White Elm Films team was professional and easy to work with! We got our video back quicker than we expected (yay!) and it was a perfect recap of our special day.

to work with the company via surveys to communicate and highlight what was most important to us. We received our completed package, and everything was shot and edited beautifully! The crew made sure to prioritize what we wanted. We chose to have drone footage, a highlight film, documentary style film, and raw footage. We have already watched and shared the footage many times! We will cherish the memories forever, and are so thankful to have had the White Elm Films team capture our day!

to see our video! They were amazing and I would recommend them.

to fill these out near their due dates. Once we met our videographers on the day of our wedding, we knew we made the right choice. David and Jordan (the outsourced videographers) were kind, communicative, and fun! They gave us guidance during pictures that helped with our video. We received our videos back MONTHS early, as our wedding date was 7/13. We opened our video and I was in tears within the first few seconds reliving our day. Our videos came out beautiful. We are more than happy with White Elm and had a great experience since we’ve booked them almost 1.5 years ago!

d worked tirelessly to ensure every special moment was captured beautifully. Their meticulous approach and dedication really shone through in the final film, which exceeded all our expectations. They crafted a wedding film that perfectly encapsulates the emotions and memories of our day. If you’re looking for a team that goes above and beyond to deliver a stunning, personalized wedding film, look no further. We couldn't be happier with the results!

e always so quick. The team was so nice and fun to work with on our wedding day and the video they created from the day was everything we had dreamed of! They got the video back so quickly and they made sure they captured all of the moments that were the most important to us. We cannot recommend White Elm Films enough!

to the filming on the day of, and of course our wedding videos. We received our wedding highlight video and full documentary back in a little over a month (which is so quick!). It was so beautifully done and we have had so many compliments. We could not be happier to have such a special memory caught on tape to cherish forever. I would recommend White Elm films to any couple who wants a beautiful wedding video done for a reasonable price. Thanks White Elm!

ike their select instagram ones (which they turn the comments off on as so many people complain), the quality isn't great and there are parts of the video that I just question why they are in there. I don't love them and I haven't posted any of them. We paid for the ceremony, toasts, dances, highlight, and 1 minute film - paying around $3K. They were late delivering it and gave poor excuses with little communication, which I find unacceptable as you sign a contract with them, and they offered a refund of $200 back which is nothing compared to what you pay. It doesn't take long on Instagram to find the owners and see that they are out living their lives and very unbothered about this business when many couples are waiting on an overdue and overpromised product. Spend your money with another company - this one is not worth it.

o change our getting ready location last minute and our contractor videographers in Santa Barbara were AWESOME!!!! We got our videos on time too, which is always great!!!

team the day of were amazing. I was a little nervous about being followed by a camera for 8 hours but it truly was like they weren’t even there, in a good way. From what I remember we were quoted a 16 week turnaround for our videos and I was shocked when our video was ready in just over 6 weeks. Watching it back made me tear up all over again because it was like we were back at our big day. You will never regret spending the money to hire a videographer and you absolutely will not regret choosing White Elm to do it.

t got our videos back last night and we could not be more in love with them! With the package we chose, we got both a highlight and a documentary video of the whole wedding, plus raw untouched footage of the entire night. We absolutely loved them from start to finish. The time and effort put into the documentary and highlight videos did not go unnoticed. They were perfect on every level. We cannot wait to have our families over to watch the documentary video & have them relive our day with us all over again! Professional, responsive, extremely kind & we got our videos back in just over a month! Truly cannot beat it. Thank you to the entire team at White Elm Films, we appreciate you all so much and would recommend you a thousand times over again.

nce of service and cost for us. Their model of contracting with local videographers for wedding day was a little different for us, but we were impressed with how consistent their editing style was across multiple shooters. We loved watching our video to relive our special day and are grateful we have these memories for years to come.

g was as seamless as could be. The information they shared with us in the beginning was super helpful, clear, and comprehensive, and they had a ton of helpful guides to answer any possible question you can think of. Whenever we needed to communicate with the team, we received in a response almost immediately (sometimes I couldn't believe how fast!). My husband and I loved that there were several add-ons we could incorporate into our package, too. You have a great package to start, but you also have the ability to customize based on your vision and needs! On the day of the wedding, the team arrived right on time and were absolutely WONDERFUL to work with! Not only were our videographers diligent in getting a ton of different shots and angles throughout each chapter of the day, but they were also warm and kind - it felt like we added two new friends to our special day. We received our video in just over a month, which blew away our expectations! The video itself was stunning. It truly took our breath away and captured the best day of our lives so perfectly. We included the ceremony film and raw footage, which was a great bonus to the highlight film. We are so thankful and cannot express our gratitude enough to the talented team at White Elm Films. Thanks to them, we will cherish our wedding video for the rest of our lives and look back on the day with smiles from ear to ear! Thank you!!!!

highlight video was beautiful and so cinematic, wonderfully edited!

EYOND with all the shots he got. We can't say enough nice things about him. The White Elm company is also very easy to work with, they kept us on track for any important dates/decisions we needed to make and everything went off without a hitch. Would recommend them to everyone.

ilms for this. It’s hard to believe it was this good because during the wedding I totally forgot he was even there. He did a fantastic job of getting the shots on his own and guiding/instructing us when he needed as well. I wish I remembered his name but he was on time and very professional, I was impressed with the amount of equipment this one guy was managing. We’re both just so shocked and happy at how the video turned out. I really can’t recommend enough, they were very fairly priced and provide a top tier service - hire them.

don’t seem to be a priority. They get reviews taken down. Google them. They had to delete their google business profile because their rating is so low - lots about it on Reddit. Had to find a new videographer a month before my wedding & “white elm” only replied when I threatened to go to the news. They go by more than one business name. I’ve talked to several other brides in the same boat. Don’t trust them - prices ARE too good to be true.

our wedding we had 2 videographers show up that were unprofessional and had little experience with the camera. Even our photographer (separate company) was getting annoyed with them. When we met with Holly we expressed how important the church ceremony part was to us and that we wanted the full ceremony. Once we got our film back (which in order to get I had to threaten to take the company to court for breaking the contract and not proving the video on time - 2 months late with no response) the quality was AWFUL! It looked like kids were recording our wedding and not professional videographers. First we only had one angle of the full ceremony as the other videographer decided not to film. The footage (over an hour) that we got was just off our backs and the footage was very shaking and constantly going out of focus. The reception footage had the bridal party entrance in the wrong order and they did not even film the announcement of my husbands parents. After trying to get this fixed it took another 3 months for minor edits only to in the end not get what we asked for. I am so disappointed with this company and they should not be in business. Once they take your money they are radio silent and it’s impossible to get a timely response from them which is the last thing you need when planning a wedding. My whole hearted recommendation is to stay away!

ened to our post-ceremony requests over email when we wanted certain aspects of our day included or excluded. Overall we loved everything about each of the films they put together -- a 5 minute highlight film and a full hour long documentary with ceremony, speeches and moments.

g them even after I raised the concerns to Holly regarding the reviews. She did explain the reason for the delay. I did ask for contact number to reach just so we can feel secure that we can reach out to her but she's reluctant to do that which was pretty strange for us because most of our vendors are very communicative outside of our emails. She did stress that she can only be reached out via email. It just feels very transactional and the fact that we wouldn't even know who's gonna be our videographer on the day is also not something we trust. We didn't get back our retainer but would rather cancel than be stressful on the quality of the work.

to and prompt with responding to our emails. Her professionalism and responsiveness made the initial planning stages smooth and stress-free. One aspect that we found challenging was not knowing who our videographer would be until the day of the wedding, as White Elm Films uses third-party videographers. Despite this, we were thrilled with our assigned videographer, Rick. Rick was incredible to work with—very professional and courteous. He seamlessly coordinated with our other vendors, particularly our photographer, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. It was unfortunate that Rick wasn't able to reach out or introduce himself before the wedding, but his ability to quickly adapt and collaborate on the day was impressive. We also greatly appreciated the quick turnaround time for our wedding video, which beautifully captured the essence of our special day. We would recommend White Elm Films to anyone looking for a reliable and talented videography service. Thank you, Holly, Rick, and the entire White Elm Films team, for creating such a wonderful keepsake of our wedding!

one footage. In the months leading up to the wedding, we were given digital questionnaires to fill out with music preferences and a timeline. We didn't know who our videographers were going to be until the day of our wedding, but they were lovely and professional. They worked well with the photography team and got all the shots we were hoping for. We just got our videos back (ceremony, dances, speeches, highlight film &teaser) digitally, about 6 weeks after our event. The videos turned out great and we are happy with the result.

on from day one was entirely with the owner Holly directly which I appreciated and made it feel more personal working with them. She was easy to talk to and answered my many questions about what to expect and their packages. Which can I just say that their packages are incredibly affordable for the quality of product you are getting! On our wedding day the White Elm Films team was easy to work with and worked very well with our photographer and other vendors. I was hesitant that we would not get to talk to the team members we were working ahead of time with but my communication with Holly put my mind at easy knowing that the team would handle the day perfectly. When we got our final video back, I could not stop crying. The way they captured every moment of our day was breathtaking. The sound quality of our ceremony and speeches was unbelievable and we are so thrilled that we decided to work with White Elm Films. We cannot thank them enough for being a part of our special day and giving us an incredible video memory to last a lifetime. And just a note, if you are considering getting the raw footage or not, DO IT! Yes, we LOVE our edited highlight film and ceremony footage but having footage of the entire day is so wonderful and absolutely worth it to have!

d help with, along with getting lots of creative shots. I waited on the edge of my seat for the editing to be finished (ended up being within 4 months), and was nervous to watch it for the first time, considering my high expectations for my wedding video. I had nothing to be nervous about - the finished product was so well-done, incorporated all the elements I'd asked for, and celebrated so many small, important moments from our day I'd missed in all the hustle and bustle! I would highly recommend White Elm Films if you are looking for a quality, well-edited, classy wedding video! Note: If you value in-depth communication with your videographers pre-wedding, they may not be the company for you. Since they're a national company, they don't give specific information about which videographer will be coming to film your day. My experience was great regardless!
