We had the pleasure of working with Christina from Filmman Video for our wedding. We booked Filmman…read moreover a year in advance after finding a recommendation for them on Reddit! They have a very extensive portfolio on their website, which I loved as it really gave me a sense of the style of filming and editing they do. Once I sent an inquiry, Christina was very responsive and informative. She was also great with communicating with us and our other vendors the few weeks leading up to the wedding, making sure her team's equipment would work with our DJ's audio setup. On wedding day, Christina was absolutely lovely to work with. As someone with no experience being on camera, I loved that she gave tips on suggested movements to make that appeared really natural and beautifully on camera. She made us feel at ease with all the advice. Christina's ability to speak Chinese was a great bonus - it made coordinating with our Chinese-speaking family members much easier and kept everyone on the same page. The finished products turned out amazing. I couldn't be happier with the videos provided and how well everything turned out. Thank you so much to Christina and the team for making our wedding day so special! I'd absolutely recommend working with Filmman Video for anyone looking for a wedding videographer - you definitely won't be disappointed with the results.

We worked with Amos Productions (DJ and decorations/lighting) for our wedding. Firstly, the staff…read moreat Amos productions are so friendly and responsive. They always gave us options and quotes promptly when we asked, even when it came down to the wire (Melissa and Michael Gilmore). The lighting and set decorations we rented from AMOS productions made the venue look so beautiful. Michael seems very familiar with most of the venues in the East Bay and gave us amazing suggestions to make the reception look good while still being attentive to our budget. DJ Kevin was our DJ for our wedding. I cannot say enough good things about DJ Kevin. From the get go, he was on top of EVERYTHING. During our meetings, he helped us organize and time our entire day (music, activities, timing, setting). It's very obvious that he has DJ'd a ton of weddings but he is completely attentive to your needs and tastes. Even when we made changes last minute, DJ kevin accommodated all of our needs and integrated everything. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect, he timed all the music perfectly and made the atmosphere so beautiful. He MC'd our ceremony so well, making all the guests feel comfortable and aware of activities/locations. DJ Kevin was very attentive to our taste in music and curated the MOST AMAZING dance floor. I thought I had a good idea of what i wanted, which he took into account, but mixed the songs SO perfectly and also added in absolute bangers in between. We had guests age 9-90 dancing all night. Everyone was so disappointed when the night had to end. If we had to do it all over again, we would work with DJ Kevin without a doubt. Thank you AMOS productions and thank you DJ Kevin for making our day as perfect as it was.

There aren't enough words to fully capture the impact DJ Rick had on our wedding. He is the…read moredefinition of a professional - passionate, kind, and entirely focused on the happiness of his clients. Interestingly, though we are both musicians, and music lovers, my husband and I actually found the process of selecting our own wedding music surprisingly daunting. Rick stepped in not just as a DJ, but as a consultant, helping us talk through genres and the emotional timing for each moment of the day. The result was a masterclass in engineering. He helped us thread together a beautiful, soulful grouping of songs for our ceremony that transitioned into the ultimate 90s/2000s dance party for the reception. Our guests have not stopped raving about the setlist; it was exactly the high-energy, nostalgic vibe we wanted. DJ Rick has an incredible intuition for how to work a room. DJ Rick doesn't just play music; he curates an experience.

One of the tips we always heard before our wedding was to get a wedding video. And we originally…read moredoubted that tip, deciding to not get a wedding video after seeing many different videographers and sample videos. But after seeing Matter Video's and chatting with Dan, we completely changed our minds, and we are so glad we did. Working with Dan was a joy, and he was highly professional and very experienced. He worked seamlessly with our photographer -- so well that we kept forgetting that they weren't part of the same team! His wedding videos are able to capture the raw, emotional highs of a wedding without feeling cheesy or overdone. He really portrays the beauty and happiness that is present throughout the wedding. He captured so many details and moments that we didn't get photos of. We recommend him even more if you are having your wedding at Nestldown, as he clearly knew how to navigate all the best shots and lighting and timing throughout Nestldown.  He was friendly, easy to work with, clear in his directions, and also got us our sneak peek video within 24 hours of the end of the wedding. We loved our sneak peek so much that we opted for the longer video package! Thank you for the best keepsake! -Nickie & Jonathan, Nestldown June 2025

Dan and Travis were the sweetest duo--so kind, fun, and easy to be around. They made us feel completely at ease, and we spent most of the day laughing with them! Dan's attention to detail is absolutely flawless. He has a way of turning real moments into something that feels cinematic, capturing every magical second with such care. We received our wedding video yesterday, and I'm not exaggerating when I say we've already watched it at least 50 times. I don't think I've ever cried or smiled so much in one sitting--my cheeks are still so sore! Thanks to Dan and Travis, we'll be able to relive the most special day of our lives over and over again. It's something we'll cherish forever. We're endlessly grateful to Dan and Travis!

Graham (Final Frame) was the perfect fit! He is very professional and readily available for any questions, etc. He has a quicker turnaround for the video which is a bonus, and I really liked that his presence was very subtle (doesn't feel like you're on a movie set with a ton of bulky equipment). He edited a wonderful video (documentary edit), and I feel like I really get to relive the wedding day, and I love that I get to re-watch all the speeches/special moments of us with our friends and family. One of my favorite parts is that he will interview the guests (optional) and you get to hear and see family/friends video messages. It was awesome and really special. I'd highly recommend Graham! He is excellent!

Graham is very responsive and easy to work with. The day of our June 2021 wedding, Graham showed up on time and got right to work. You hardly even know he's there, which is exactly what we wanted from a videographer. He films "documentary style" and gets all the parts of the day that are such a blur to the bride and groom. My favorite thing about his style is the interviews he does with the bride and groom separately and the interviews he does with guests. It's such a nice touch that makes watching the video even more special. Graham is so affordable given the INCREDIBLE work that he does. I can't believe some people don't get a videographer for their wedding as it was such a special experience to rewatch our day through the eyes of our guests. My sister used Graham a few years ago, and I will be recommending Graham to every future bride and groom. His work is stunning, he doesn't interfere or get in the way, and he adds special touches that make the video even more fun to watch. Thank you so much Graham!!

Mike kept us in the loop, stayed in great communication, and provided preview edits so we could give feedback before finalizing everything.
