Best Wedding Video I’ve ever seen

 

Pros: Professional, Prompt, Great Quality

Cons: None

My husband and I got married on May 19, 2012. We used Claudia Photo for our wedding photographer and Cancun Wedding Video as our videographers. Mike Cantarell was our main videographer. He did a fabulous job and truly captured all the love that was shared on our special day. He kept in contact with us after our wedding keeping us informed on our video. We had our video within weeks of our wedding and it was amazing to see all the special moments he captured without us even realizing it. I highly recommend Mike and his team they are wonderful to work with and do an amazing job.

EXCELLENT VIDEOGRAPHER

 

Pros: On time, reliable, professional and stunning work!

Cons: None

If you are looking for an excellent videographer for your Wedding in the Mayan Riviera I could not recommend Mike and his time highly enough!

Videography was a last minute addition to our Wedding and Mike worked to tailor a package to suit our needs and price range. His work speaks for itself and videos on his website really sold him to me, but once you start communications he proves to be the nicest guy also. He always responded promptly to any questions I had in a very professional and reassuring manner.

I only met Mike and his team the day of my Wedding where they arrived early and were very low maintenance. Often times it was like they were not even there which allowed them to capture the most natural footage of the Wedding. All of my friends and family cannot believe how amazing the sneak peak was and a lot say they have never seen a Wedding video as good as ours. Im sure a lot of people say that but I truly believe it is amazing. The final video was sent to us as per the time agreement and edited beautifully.

I am definitely a perfectionist and Mike fulfilled everything I was looking for in Videography services. Thank you again Mike to you and your team for capturing our unforgettable memories. My Husband and I have decided to watch our video as and Anniversary ritual and I am sure it will never get old!

Excellent investment!!!

 

Pros: priceless footage to keep forever, accommodated a last minute booking, thoughtful customer service

Cons: unexpected editing and some questionable footage cuts

When our list of guests turned out to be somewhat small, I convinced my now husband that we should hire a videographer. It was a last minute addition and we are both so glad we did it. Our family and friends who couldn’t join us were also thrilled to watch after we returned.

Mike and his team caught some really special moments, some funny comments, and have truly given us a gift…. video footage from your wedding day allows you to re-live the special moments that fly by so fast.  And allow you to actually see and feel again just how happy and excited you were on your day.

It’s priceless and you can keep it forever. Photos are also forever, but video is SO DIFFERENT.

I would have absolutely regretted it if we decided to forego the added expense. It was worth it.

Our video package was for only a few hours of filming and the final product was about 30minutes…. so it went back and forth between getting ready and the ceremony several times. At first, it seemed all over the place and we didn’t love it.  BUt the more we watch it (and we have watched it at least ten times already!!!) the more we just love it all because… it really sums up special parts of our day…. in a very creative way.

SO my only recommendation is to spend more time thinking about what you want and don’t want and to discuss this with your videographer.  If you don’t want or need your entire first dance included in the video, say it.  If you want your father’s speech uncut, ask for it!  If you want the editing to be chronological, say so.  If you don’t want to be asked to re-do things (re-walk a certain way, say things over again, re-enact a funny moment) so they can be caught on tape, tell the videographer.
We booked the service so late and had never even THOUGHT of any of these things. Fortunately Mike is excellent with customer service so he is going to provide us with a full cut of our father’s speech so we can have it in its entirety.

Regardless, hands down, an excellent investment.

Amazing

 

Pros: Professional, amazing, hard working

Cons: None

I got married in June 2012 at Secrets Maroma Resort and Cancun Wedding Video did our videography for our wedding. They were absolutely amazing and our videographer worked so hard to capture each moment the day of my wedding. When we received the video in the mail it exceeded our expectations and were are BEYOND happy with the way it turned out! Thank you so much for doing such amazing work and giving us something we will always have for memories of our Wedding Day!

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND

 

Pros: None

Cons: None

AFirst I would like to say that out of all the wedding planning, hiring a videographer was the best decision I made… My wedding day literally happened in the blink of an eye like most peoples and I am sooo happy that I have a video that I can look back on… My experience with Cancun Wedding Video was GREAT!!! I was going back and forth for awhile trying to decide if I should use the resort videographer or an outside vendor like most people having a destination wedding it is very nerve wrecking bc u don’t know what to expect especially being in another country and not knowing how things are handled and what quality of work there is compared to what you are used to where u live… I have nothing but good things to say my whole experience was wonderful… I read reviews for months and researched and watched videos and this company always stuck out to me so last minute I decided to contact them and literally the day I contacted Mike he got back to me with in an hour and sent me all the info I needed to know he was very prompt with everything I asked which was such a stress reliever for me seeing as though video was the most important thing to me and every time I messages my wedding coordinator it would take weeks to write back… So from the very start I had a good feeling… Eduardo was my videographer and he was AMAZING he literally captured every moment possible and I am soo appreciative and can not thank him enough. We had also ordered on top of our package a highlight video and at first I thought it was kinda pricey but I had to order bc I needed something to play at our at home reception… When I received it I was completely blown away i honestly didn’t know what to expect it completely exceeded all of my expectations it was perfect literally I didn’t even tell Eduardo much and he found away to incorporate everything into this 10 min video and play all my favorite songs it was soon beyond creative and actually we hired the best videographer for our at home reception and my video turned out soon much better from Eduardo I was shocked… I had 200 people at my back home reception and they all said it was the best highlight video they’ve ever seen… It was worth every penny truly and I also received a video from our resort that came with wedding package and I am soon thankful I hired a outside vendor … For those of you trying to decide whether to get a videographer or an outside vendor it is sooo worth it and I would of regretted it so much if I didn’t. There are parts of the night that I didn’t even know happened until I seen the video and to be able to have all these moments captured and that I can go back and watch for the rest of my life and cherish is priceless… Pictures are great but without a video to capture everything it wouldn’t be the same….. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMEND

My favorite movie!

 

Pros: None

Cons: None

We got married this past June 2012 in at the Gran Mayan in Cancun.  Starting from the ceremony to the reception everything was beautiful. Sometimes memories fade. How not to have this memorable moments saved in a video?  Alex Gonzalez did our video and did an excellent job.  He was very accessible and open to any ideas in order to make our video even better.  He captured all those unforgettable moments. We loved our video and I do not get tired of watching it every time we show it to anyone. It is now my favorite movie!!!

I do not have anything else to say, but a big THANK YOU ALEX.  You did an outstanding job!

Thank you,

Absolute perfection

 

Pros: Price, personality, skill

Cons: N/A

I’m so angry at myself for having not written this sooner! I definitely thought I’d already completed this review.

Well, we were married on April 20, 2012 at the Royal Playa del Carmen. Originally, I had NO desire for videography services for my wedding. But, as time went on, and I began seeing all of these beautiful highlight videos, I decided we needed a videographer. I emailed several companies from BDW, but found Cancun Wedding Video’s prices, style, and communication most in line with our own.

We decided on the special video package (5 hour package), an extra copy of the DVD, and the highlight video. I mostly wanted the ceremony and beginning of the reception captured on film, and figured this was the best package for us.

On the day of the wedding, Jerry arrived at my room with our photography staff (Juan Navarro Photography). I loved that they knew each other and really worked well with each other! There was no “competition” for shots or tension, it was like they were best friends. (Are they? LOL)

Of course, that day everything seemed great, but you don’t really know until you receive the DVDs, right? We had sent a list of about 10 songs that we liked for our videos prior to the wedding. And then, well, Mike sent me a link on Facebook to our highlight video about 2 months after our wedding. It is just breathtaking. About a week later, we got our DVDs in the mail. We sat and watched them that very morning. I could not be happier with the videos. The transitions are great, the music is fabulous, and I felt like it really captured our day perfectly. I could not have asked for anything better!

Expectations Exceeded!

 

Pros: Quick Turn Around, Ease to Work With, Outstanding Product

Cons: None

Cancun Wedding Video provided our video production for our October 28th wedding at Secrets Maroma Beach Resort. The team was recommended through our resort, and I was pleased to see other brides with very happy reviews.  From the moment they arrived at my room prior to the ceremony, through the gorgeous photo shoot at the abandoned mansion, to the receival of our highlight reel and full video within just a few weeks, I was overly pleased with their services!  I used Juan Navarro for photography, and it was obvious that the teams had worked together before and meshed wonderfully. I upgraded our package to 5 hours of shooting, HD cameras, and a highlight reel, and I know I made the absolute right choice. I have received so many compliments from our highlight reel, and I love watching it over and over again. They truly captured some of the most gorgeous and memorable moments and it takes me back to that day all over again, every time I watch it.

I highly recommend Cancun Wedding Video if your expectations include a high level of professionalism, ease of relationship, and fast turnaround on production.

Amazing Wedding Video

 

Pros: Live Streaming Web Cam, Professional, Flexible, Amazing Video

Cons: None

My husband and I were married on Jan 20, 2013 at Secrets Maroma Beach and we had Cancun Wedding Video do our wedding video! We could not have been happier, my only regret is not having them longer.

They did our ceremony, cocktail hour and most of the reception. I had them leave at 9:00pm bc the reception was supposed to be at 10:00pm and I thought how much video do I want of people dancing, but we ended up doing the garter and bouquet toss past 9:00pm and extending the reception to 11:00pm, so I wish I would have scheduled him the entire reception. I brought my own photographer and not knowing her they worked well together, however, I would recommend trying to have them meet prior just so they can coordinate. We did have one instance when the video camera was in the way of the photographer, but it was no big deal. The video quality was amazing, we were so happy with it!! Also, I have emailed Mike many times leading up to the wedding and post wedding and he responds very quickly and is very accommodating! Also, we had the live streaming web cam and it was the BEST IDEA EVER!! Our Family and Friends that weren’t able to attend really felt like they were there with us! We could have not be happier!
