Nikki, Nan and their crew were absolutely amazing! We cant say enough about them. My wife and I created our own DYI wedding.
We did a lot of research, we interviewed several vendors and we spent a lot of time. We would like to save you that problem and simply recommend that you stop looking and hire Classic Filmworks with Nikki and Nan. The talent and professionalism and artistic nature of their film was nothing short of perfect. They were extremely easy to communicate with and set up times to meet. They had no problem meeting us at our venue in Fallbrook to survey the site with our wedding planner, caterer, photographer and site manager. We went through the venue working out all the details so that there were no surprises.
The day of the wedding Nikki, Nan and their crew were discrete in their setup and hardly noticeable as they shot their footage. They filmed us from several angles with impeccable timing and sound quality. We really had no idea what to expect, but in the end, to see the final product..... We were blown away! They sent us a quick 5-10 minute teaser which I thought at first was the entire film. I was so excited to see it that I couldn't believe that was our wedding. When we received the entire short film it was absolutely amazing.
My wife insisted on getting a videographer. I didn't believe that we would watch a silly video of people forced to say something nice about the bride and groom while shanghaied into a corner like on the old school wedding videos. I was so wrong. The setup and planning and attention to detail was amazing. The drone footage was spectacular! I didn't once hear it or see it but the footage was awe inspiring. The short film covered everything. They were there for all the right shots and conversations and special moments between my wife and I. The editing kept all the best parts of the speeches and they took out one of our drunken groomsman toast (per request). They even included the full speeches, on the main menu, so that I can show him what a fool he was LOL. Lastly we would like to comment on the fee's. We interviewed 5-6 videographers with price ranges anywhere from $1000-$9000. We didn't have any help financially for the wedding and price was always an issue. Some company's would charge three payments of $3000 and then charge again for transport fees, extra lighting, drones and misc stuff. Classic Filmworks was up front and to the point with no hidden fees. Their fee was very fair, in fact, after seeing the short film, I feel we should owe them money. Nikki and Nan.... sorry but Im all out LOL !
In short, my wife and I are very happy with every aspect of Classic Filmworks. I hope that after reading our review you will be satisfied and trust that you hired the right film crew for your special day.

I am a total perfectionist and as a bride, wedding planning was a daunting task (to say the least) since I wanted/needed every detail to be absolutely perfect. When it came time to select a videographer, I spent hours watching sample videos from local videographers. The videos I watched from Classic Filmworks were the ONLY ones that made me cry - and I didn't know any of the couples personally! Nan and Nikki truly have a gift for capturing all the important moments and for putting them together so beautifully. Not only are they extremely talented, but they are also so great to work with. They were so responsive and got back to me quickly regarding any questions I had. We also had our wedding reception on a military base which required some extra work from our vendors (to be able to gain base access). Nan and Nikki accommodated all the requests that our base contacts had and made the experience a breeze. My husband and I got married in October and received our videos just before Christmas - it was the best Christmas gift we received this year! Watching the videos brought back all the emotions we felt that day. Our videos are definitely our most cherished and favorite takeaway from our wedding. Since we received the videos just before Christmas, we arranged for a surprise viewing party with both sides of our family during our Christmas party and there was not a single dry eye in the room. Everyone was amazed and incredibly impressed! I also want to add that at the onset of wedding planning, I was skeptical about the need for a videographer/wedding video. I naively thought that photography would be enough. Luckily a coworker convinced me that a videographer was absolutely necessary - and I am so so glad I listened! As I mentioned earlier, our videos are our most favorite wedding takeaway. Nothing compares to watching your wedding day unfold and seeing all the raw reactions - it truly gives you the ability to relive your day. If you are in need of a wedding videographer, I HIGHLY recommend Classic Filmworks. Thanks again ladies!!! More...

Classic Filmworks did an amazing job capturing our special day! They paid attention to details and would check in with us about what things we specifically wanted captured so they could be sure to give us what we were hoping for. Their packages were great, providing different options and viewpoints of the day, and it was quality work! I really loved being able to watch back our day and feel as if we were reliving it, all thanks to their videography. Nan was kind and fun to work with throughout the whole experience and acted as if we had known her for years. I highly recommend this great family team. :) More...

I watch all the videos from the highlights to full ceremony to feature film, over and over. Nan is a very talented artist. She and her assistant Nikki worked hard to bring out the best in our wedding. I am not comfortable to be in front of cameras but she made me feel good on my wedding day!

Nan was AMAZING to work with and she absolutely blew us away with her final work product. I can honestly say that you will NOT find anyone better in quality, price, and professionalism. Nan perfectly captured our big day and created the most magical personalized videos--highlight and feature film. I recommend Nan to all of my engaged girlfriends and my recommendation and review here is the same I give them! Originally, my now-husband and I were not going to use a videographer because we were tight on our budget. However, after reconsideration, we knew we couldn't go without a videographer--we were 100% right! After thorough research and multiple emails back and forth, video samples, and a phone call with Nan, we selected Classic Filmworks -- it was the BEST decision ever. More...

Nan and her team were amazing! We needed a videographer last minute for our wedding this past September and our venue recommended her. Fortunately we booked her the day before our wedding and she was available! From beginning to end, the team was very professional and made my husband I very comfortable. At first I wasn't too sure if I wanted a videographer but I'm so happy with the end results! When we received our wedding highlights, we absolutely were amazed at what a great job and how beautiful the video was put together! I couldn't have asked for a better team to share our special day! If your looking for an amazing team please look no further! Classic Filmworks is by far the best team of videographers. Best video I've ever seen! When I showed family and friends everyone commented on how amazing the footage came out! My husband and I are so lucky and cannot thank Classic Filmworks enough!!! Thank you for making our wedding video so magical! More...

Classic Filmworks exceeded our expectations for our wedding highlight and documentary films. My husband and I spend many hours searching for a videographer that could express our love and energy.
We were not looking for the typical wedding videos you see so much of but had our own elements and ideas we wanted in the video. Nan really listened to what we had to say. It was so easy to talk with her and didn't take much explaining or example to demonstrate what we were looking for.
Thank you Classic Filmworks for capturing our magical, fun filled day.

I don't think videographers get any better than these gals! Not only are they both very quick to respond, they are so easy going and make being in front of the camera a breeze. Our video came less than two months (!) after our wedding and it was phenomenal. The personal touches they give and the way they combine the little snippets of the day is unbelievable. I'm so happy we hired them and would recommend them and their work to anyone who wants a video they will remember forever! We've had so many compliments on our highlight video as well and my husband and I have watched the entire video about 10 times! Hire them, you will not regret it! More...

One thing I could say about Nan is that she is very responsive. We planned our wedding for a year and she was there to answer all of our questions from beginning to end of the event. She was very flexible and was with our photographer most of the time to make sure they are capturing moments that our photographer might have missed. There were 3 maybe 4 of them working hence, the other staff were all over the area capturing moments of the wedding. What I was thankful for is her professionalism. I was worried that I am not going to be able to download all of the videos that was on the website and transfer to DVD due to not having a CD/DVD writer installed on my computer. She accommodated my request and sent me no one but 3 DVDs so that I could give a copy to our parents who helped us pay for the wedding. The quality of work she had put in to our wedding was more than I had imagined. She captured all the special moments of our wedding day and put the video together so well that my friends and family had asked me how I found her. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family for any life big events that comes their way. Thank you Nan and staff for capturing all special moments of our wedding. I will forever be grateful to you and your staff. More...

Nan was an absolute pleasure to work with, and we couldn't be happier with our final video! She was so flexible and accommodating to what we specifically needed (we wanted her to film a small ceremony in the church and also a large outside celebration). She cut everything together so beautifully and she got such amazing footage. The most important thing to us was that she captured who we were as a couple, and she did that so well! She truly captured our wedding weekend as well as the spirit of both me and my husband. And her and her daughter were so sweet and easy to work with! We are so happy we decided to hire a videographer, and we're so happy we chose Classic Filmworks! More...

Nan and her team at Classic Filmworks were absolute professionals, super sweet, and created the most amazing wedding video for us. My mom has had a camcorder strapped to her hand my whole life, and we knew she would have one at our wedding too if we hadn't ensured video coverage ourselves. ;-) But it was worth so much more than just keeping mom in her seat. They captured beautiful raw footage, did a wonderful edit in long-form and short, and got it to us both digitally and on discs for preservation and enjoyment. They are true artists, and truly worth the expense! Photos are amazing too, but there's nothing like video for capturing your loved ones in motion, real as life. Note - they are also very discreet with their tiny cameras, there's none of the 'horror stories' of videographers to be found here! More...

By far the most incredible thing that came away from our wedding day (besides my new husband, of course!)Nan and her assistant (sorry, don't remember her name) were incredible! Arrived right on time and started filming right away. They captured every little thing about our wedding day that we would want to share. The filming was perfect and edited so well. When looking for a videographer for our wedding day we knew we didn't want to settle for a super cheap not so great video. Nan's prices are super reasonable, especially for what you get. We were able to get a 3 minute highlight video and an hour long full-length video for less than what most people charge for just the highlight video. Definitely take the time to look through many of the videos she has done. They all have a unique vibe to them depending on the couple and what they want. I can't say enough great things about the footage she captured really encompassing our wedding day. Great job, keep up the good work, and I will be recommending her to many other future brides!

I should start by saying that I initially thought having a videographer wasn’t a necessity since we were having a photographer.
My mother-in-law disagreed and I am so glad I listened to her, because getting to watch and listen to the vows and speeches all over again is PRICELESS on its own. We spent months planning this day and getting to relive it was worth every penny especially since, as the bride and groom who are on a cloud all day, you are bound to miss or forget some of what happened. Also, getting to share this day with friends and family that weren’t able to make it was an absolute joy.
We had a full-day Indian fusion wedding, with a Sikh ceremony in Escondido in the morning and a vow exchange ceremony in Carlsbad in the afternoon. As the bride, I was hidden away for the “groom’s parade” and “meeting of the families” that happened before the first ceremony. I was bummed to miss my husband ride in on a horse (which is just one of the awesome Punjabi wedding traditions), but knowing that Nan was capturing it all meant I was going to get to enjoy it later, which was such a comfort.
As a multi-cultural wedding, our focus was to celebrate our two cultures and unite our two families. When I met with Nan before the wedding I told her that this was the “theme” of our wedding and the highlight video she created expressed this beautifully and perfectly. She is such an artist!
We are extremely grateful for the hours of hard work Nan put into creating what we will most definitely cherish our whole life.
