We've been honored to create wedding films for hundreds of incredible couples. Each one of their stories is distinctive and we pride ourselves on creating moving films that artistically convey those love stories. We believe your wedding is not just about one day. It’s about your story leading up to that day and the stories that will come after. Our wedding videos bring your day to life – allowing the two of you to relive every laugh, every tear, and every moment that went by in a flash. Your loved ones will thank you for allowing your celebration to serve as a legacy of family history for generations to come.

Toast Weddings was the perfect choice for our wedding videography needs. From the very beginning, their team was responsive, compassionate, and highly professional in their communication. The quality of their work was excellent - they captured all the special, custom moments of our wedding day in Waialua, Hawaii with a keen eye for detail. As a couple who was 7 months pregnant with our first child at the time, the Toast Weddings team went above and beyond to cater to our unique situation and make sure our memories were beautifully preserved. Our videographer, Jason, had a truly creative vision that shone through in the final highlight video we received just 3 months after our wedding. We are beyond happy with our experience and the forever memories Toast Weddings has given us of our special day.

Wedding Weekender

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $459
  • Serves Buffalo, IL

Wedding Weekender is redefining wedding video with a more authentic, accessible way to capture your celebration. We send camcorders for your friends and family to film candid moments across your wedding weekend — from getting ready to the dance floor and everything in between. Afterward, our editing team shapes that footage into a thoughtful, nostalgic wedding video that feels true to your celebrations. We believe meaningful wedding video should feel personal, accessible, and rooted in real moments.

We had the best experience with Wedding Weekender! It was worth every penny. They made every step of the process easy, the equipment itself was easy to use, and everybody had a blast at the wedding filming and being filmed. We are over the moon with how the video editing turned out as well! I am just amazed at how the WW team took only a couple of sentences of direction/suggestions and created such a beautiful, fun video that absolutely captured the vibe of the wedding day and the vibe of our relationship. I could watch it over and over again (and I do). BOOK THEM!!!!!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Nakayoshi Studios and their incredible work! From the moment we met them, their kindness and professionalism put us at ease. They have a remarkable eye for creativity and an elegant style that beautifully captures every meaningful moment.

The way they filmed the wedding was nothing short of breathtaking.

I found Saja through a tagged video of my wedding venue (The Glen Manor House) midway through planning, and was immediately sold! Her artistry, talent and the opulence mirrored my vision so much that I ended up firing my previously booked videographer! So if you’re reading this, and you already booked a videographer; you may need to reconsider because every bride needs a Saja on her wedding day! She is personable, professional and extremely considerate! The produced work is phenomenal and is a keepsake that will transcend family generations!! You regret hiring Mawaddah Productions for your big day!

We used Conner for our wedding on May 3, 2025. We were looking for a DJ and our photographer who had worked with him multiple times had recommended him…. Fast forward we found out he also did videography and we booked him for both- and we are so glad we did! He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined. I hope we have the chance to work with you again in the future for another event. THANK YOU!!!!

Ah, perfect. Let’s ground it in that documentary indie feel. How about this: "I’m an independent documentary filmmaker, not just a wedding videographer. I tell your day as a quiet, unscripted story, like a cinematic journal. I don’t just follow a checklist; I observe, listen, and capture the authentic, fleeting moments that define you. With an indie spirit and a documentary lens, I turn your wedding into a timeless, raw, and beautifully told film." Does that hit that indie, storytelling mark?

Hi I’m Anthony! I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was 14 - what started as a teenage curiosity quickly grew into a lifelong passion for storytelling. Over the years, I’ve taught myself everything I know about filmmaking, and after filming my first wedding five years ago, I knew I had found my purpose. There’s something truly special about capturing the emotion, laughter, and small, unspoken moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. It’s an honor every single time I get to help couples preserve that feeling forever

Anthony captured ALL of our favorite moments during our wedding. He was very attentive and even helped guide us during certain moments when taking photos. I have recommended him to many friends and they all love him and his work!!
