George and his team were professional, friendly, and created an amazing set of videos that we're obsessed with. They were always incredibly responsive to our questions or emails, willing to hop on the phone as needed, and the end product really was breathtaking. The drone shots add an extra layer of wow, and our friends and family can't stop talking about how much they love the highlight video. The sound quality was excellent and the number of different shots they got was really great - it really made our wedding come alive in a way that we'll be able to relive it for years and years to come. We were a bit nervous hiring them because we booked them from out of town after only having spoken to George on the phone and watching their clips online. They are a newer company, and our planner wasn't familiar with their work, but their craftsmanship speaks for itself. They showed up a little early (!) on the morning of the wedding and were so easy-going and respectful of us, our other vendors, and our guests. Multiple guests told us that our videographer team was the nicest group of guys. Their rates are also incredibly affordable. Other vendors were asking far and above what SBWV was and for far less to show for it. Our videos came on a beautiful wooden flash drive in its own little box about 3mo after the wedding, and they kept us informed as to progress along the way.  We really can't recommend them enough. Hiring a videographer was the best decision we made, and I'm so glad it was George and his team. More...

These guys are the best! They came recommended from a friend and I'm so glad we chose them. They're extremely professional and had a way of making us feel like we were just hanging out with friends-which was a huge plus for us because we felt more at ease. They were open to any suggestions we had or didn't have and worked around our schedule with our coordinator. Our pictures and video are amazing-the drone adds for some pretty cool shots!We were able to make payments which made it easier financially for us. Huge plus. Overall, we had a great experience with Santa Barbara Wedding Films and would use them again. More...

As a wedding officiant who is privy to what goes on "behind the scenes" as well as what the family and guests see, I give my highest rating to the professionalism, excellence, and warmth they bring to the entire event and its event team.
Thank you, Ricardo, George and the entire crew!

It was a pleasure having Santa Barbara Wedding Films shoot our wedding. From the beginning process, to the day of the wedding, and then getting all of the footage after the wedding- they were so easy to work with! Very professional, effortless, and friendly! Without getting in the way, they captured our special day perfectly and we couldn't be more thrilled with the footage. We especially love the highlight video they edited. An easy recommendation to give! More...

Santa Barbara Wedding Films filmed our wedding ceremony and reception. They did a great job making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and gave a lot of direction to help get amazing shots for our highlight video. OMG the highlight video…we are obsessed with how it turned out. It captured all the important parts of our day and was so beautifully put together. We have watched it with family and friends and it brings us right back to those “wedding day feels” every time.

We received the highlight video about a month after our wedding. About a week and a half after that we received our flash drive in the mail with the highlight video, short video for Instagram and our ceremony and reception footage. The flash drive has a pretty wood cover and came in a cute little wooden box.

Overall, Santa Barbara Wedding Films was very professional and friendly and we would definitely recommend them. We are so glad that we have video of our wedding day and that they were the ones to capture it! More...

Wow! What an amazing service we received from George and his team. We got married in Santa Barbara. I am English and my husband is American. Sadly not all my elderly relatives could make the big trip, but the beautiful videos we received from Santa Barbara Wedding Films made my Nana cry. She was so happy to be able to see the highlights of our special day on the big screen. I can’t recommend this exceptional service highly enough. We are so happy with our movies! More...

Santa Barbara Wedding Films went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. They sent a whole team to help us out at the wedding. They were prompt, courteous, and made us feel comfortable with clear directions throughout the day. They also collaborated with us to work out some custom options to stay within budget. Not only that, but they produced some great footage that we hope to enjoy year after year. We highly recommend them. More...

We had a great experience with Santa Barbara Wedding Films. They were totally professional and our video made us feel like we were watching a movie! Totally understanding and helpful on our wedding day. They also used a drone for some unbelievable footage. Dont worry though-- it was not used during the ceremony (no noise disturbance), just for some shots beforehand. Strongly recommend them! Pricing was totally reasonable as well. More...

Santa Barbara Wedding Films EXCEEDED our expectations! They did an absolute phenomenal job! We also had a photographer whom these guys worked really well with. They made sure they got 'the shot' however didn't spend too much time on one thing. They captured EVERY important moment plus more! They delivered an amazing final product as well as exceeded a few personal requests I had. Every time my husband and I watch, we bawl! I'm not talking about a simple tear but we relive the moment! They were very professional and very friendly! Please take my advice, if you are in the fence debating if you should hire them, DO! We will never regret it. The day moves soooo incredibly quick and you miss the moments. You think "we will remember" "we don't need it, because we will have pictures". We had an amazing photographer as well but the video captures moment a picture can't (speeches, music, relatives who don't like pictures).

We picked Santa Barbara Wedding Films because they offered a well-done, comprehensive wedding film for a good price.  And that's exactly was we got.  George was very easy to work with and very professional.  On the day of he did come earlier and stayed later than we paid for, which we very much appreciated.  George seems to have his end product wedding film down to a system. And he offers some good perks including a drone and a second shooter. Thank you Santa Barbara Wedding Films, we are very thankful for all their efforts!!! More...

Exceeded our expectations. The level of professionalism along with their great attitudes allowed us to feel comfortable while filming our hectic but special day. The crew of three never once got in the way or questions things we wanted. They quickly captured footage and would give us the space and privacy we wanted. We highly!! recommend this videographer. Their equipment was not bulky and in the way. I would like to acknowledge the young man I had the pleasure of working with on the groom filming portion "Christian". During a hectic time of getting ready and nerves kicking in he managed to help keep me calm and sane while also capturing vital moments of the groom and groomsmen getting ready. His young attitude help capture something unique and special. (side note his outfit was on point!) The drone is a must! make sure to add to your package. We can't wait to see our video. Thank you George and crew! More...

My husband and I are incredibly happy with the finished product of our wedding video! These guys are professional, friendly, flexible, accommodating, and really have an eye to put the meaning of your event into film. I was able to make payments leading up to the wedding so that it would be paid in full by then, which was extremely helpful! I was a little worried at first because I had not personally met up with George prior to the wedding, though we were constantly in contact and he always got back to me quickly. The day of the wedding he and his crew were there early scoping out the property to see where he could shoot and all of that. That immediately put all of my worries to the side! Everyone has had nothing but wonderful things to say about our video and it still makes me cry EVERY SINGLE TIME! Thank you, George! You guys are amazing! We are SO glad we found you! More...

Santa barbara wedding films was the best of the best! I really wanted a nice same day edit video as a lot of my family from india couldnt come to the wedding- especially my grandparents. I met with George in person before the contract to ask him more about his style and he was very patient with me and answered all my questions. my brides babe crew and I felt so comfortable in front of the camera with George and the crew and we were over the moon with our same day edit. The team was prompt, got some really awesome group shots of me with my bridesmaids as well as me with my extended family members. They had an awesome attitude on the day of the wedding and had a prompt response to emails when I had questions the few weeks and months leading up to it.
Not only were they amazing at the wedding, but I had a second wedding reception put on by my in-laws and I requested a little bit longer of a video from this wonderful team and they were able to add parts of the ceremony and reception and make me a video in time for the reception. Their videography is phenomenal, the attitude exceptional and who doesn't love supporting an amazing family business. Plus the Drone shots are UNREAL.

If you want a videographer that will exceed your expectations...hire Santa Barbara Wedding Films!!!  George is straightforward, honest, friendly, and professional.  He and his second shooter showed up on-time and ready to go from the start of our day.  He is extremely creative and took initiative to look for ways to make our day more memorable than we ever could have imagined.  He captured so many details I didn't even know were at my wedding and the drone footage of our beach wedding was truly spectacular.  He is an extremely hard worker with an eye to make anything look like a fairy tale. Not to mention the way he presents his final product was far beyond our expectations, truly beautiful!!!  Photos are great to have for your wedding, but there is nothing like reliving special moments on video.  I highly recommend spending the extra cash and having this lifelong keepsake.  We are forever grateful to George and his staff!!!
