From the moment I saw Edwin's work from another wedding at The Pinery, I knew there was something…read morespecial about his style. The way he captured every little detail, every emotion, and then turned it all into a beautiful story that could be watched and shared was exactly what I wanted for our wedding day. Of course, I still did my research. I reached out to other videographers, compared packages, watched countless highlight videos, and even found some that were less expensive. I sat down with my husband, Doug, and showed him each videographer's work along with their prices. If you know Doug, you'd know he's usually the one who picks the more affordable option and doesn't get too invested in these decisions. But this time was different. The moment he watched Edwin's videos, he looked at me and said, "His work is worth it." That was all we needed to hear. Looking back now, choosing Edwin was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He captured every moment that mattered to us, our private vows, ceremony, first dance, speeches, dinner, cake cutting, and even the celebration afterward. But what really sets Edwin apart isn't just that he records events; it's the way he tells your story. Every transition, every piece of music, every meaningful glance and happy tear was put together so beautifully that watching our wedding video feels like reliving the entire day all over again. When we received our video just a few weeks later, we were honestly blown away. We loved it so much that we purchased a Motionbook and uploaded all of our wedding videos so that whenever family and friends visit, they can experience our wedding with us. More importantly, Doug and I can sit down anytime and relive one of the happiest days of our lives with our closest family forever preserved. Edwin was also wonderful to work with throughout the day. He worked seamlessly alongside our photographer and all of our other vendors, making everything feel effortless. As a fellow New Jersey native living in Florida, it was fun finding that connection too! Edwin is incredibly talented, professional, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He treats every wedding with care, respect, and attention to detail, and it truly shows in his work. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a single thing, I would choose Edwin every single time. Whether you're getting married in Florida, New Jersey, or anywhere else he travels, know that you're not just paying for a wedding video. You're investing in memories you'll cherish for the rest of your life. Thank you, Edwin, for giving us something we'll treasure forever.

They ensured…read morefrom the VERY beginning that we saw forth with our vision for our intimate wedding and everything we wanted for our nuptials. Ms. Amber took so much stress off of our hands when it came to planning, it was no joke! The packages offered by this company caters to EVERY detail of getting married and the wedding aspect. Ms. Amber made sure that although we were doing a destination wedding, we were in great hands on every aspect! Ms. Amber is literally super woman and the best planner of all time! She was real with us when she needed to be (especially about our budget, our interesting families, and being on time), had our back when only TWO people, besides our parents, showed up to rehearsal, and was there for every phone call, moment of freaking out, both of our questions.concerns, Type-A personalities, text messages, and wedding planning meeting. She was so detail oriented to the point of mapping out every detail of what we wanted and seeing those ideals come forth to fruition was breath taking! She even ended up being our officiant, and we could not ask for any other person so lead us into marriage..Even down to my makeup and hair artist...she picked the perfect artist just for me and she made me look like a sea goddess!! We were able to have our dream beach ceremony, our dream reception venue, and everything else in between because of this company and we are so thankful! Because of working with Amber, we were at peace most of planning and had nothing to worry about! Even down to the day when we were doing the final clarification of ceremony music, I literally SANG music and Amber was right there talking me through the names because I was stressing and could not remember the artists. We will definitely be seeing Simple Beach Weddings for renewing our vows in a few years as well. If you are looking for a company that cares about you, knows the area, caters to you and your partner exclusively, and just overall is just an awesome company that takes care of everything you need for your marriage and wedding. Simple Weddings is the company to go with!!!! Thank you so much to Ms. Amber, Mr. Anthony, and the whole Simple Weddings team for making our dream come true! We are still on cloud 9 about how marvelous this whole experience was! If you are planning a beach wedding, destination wedding, basically ANY form of wedding, DO NOT go to any other company besides Simple Weddings, and be sure to have Ms. Amber take care of you! They are darn good at their job!!!!! We LOVE SIMPLE WEDDINGS!! Musically Yours, Fabian & Ashley Moore from Atlanta, GA
