| April Bath | Christian did an incredible video for my daughters outdoor wedding in July at our family farm. He captured all the special moments from start to finish and everything in between. Great cinematography with some special effects to make the video much different from your regular wedding video. The trailer teaser is an added bonus! Thank-you Christian and Monique! |
| Anna Garofalo | Where do I begin to praise this man that literally made my wedding day perfect in every aspect. From the first visit of our consultation, I knew Christian would be the perfect person to capture every moment of what was the best day of my life. He asked all the right questions so there would be no stone left unturned. He literally wanted to know everything about us from when we met right up until the final details of the wedding. He was investing his time into us, and that goes a long way for me. He is the kindest and the most professional person I have ever met. I instantly felt a connection to him and his beautiful wife Monique. My wedding was on August 19th, 2023, and let me tell you, my nerves were heightened to the point where I couldn't breathe. Christian worked his magic and did everything possible to make me feel at ease and helped me contain my nerves. I feel the need to share how he did this, because it will show you how far he would go to make your day as special as possible. He literally brought me to a separate room by myself, sat me down and showed me a video clip of my groom to be and his message to me. From that moment, I knew everything would be ok. For the rest of the day, he let us be ourselves and captured all the perfect moments of our amazing Wedding day. You wouldn't even know he was there filming you. Absolute professionalism at its best. I can honestly tell you that aside from the business aspect of dealing with Christian, I can without a doubt say that I have gained a lifelong friendship with Christian & Monique. You will not be disappointed in hiring Weddings By Christian for your special event. I can guarantee that you will be thanking me. We just received our video yesterday and it turned out amazing. Exactly what I wanted. It captured our story to the tee and you can see the effort that was put into the video to ensure it was nothing short of perfect. Sooooo worth the wait!!! Thank you again Christian for being such a huge part of our day and I am truly honored you were there to share it with us. |
| Renee Blanchet | Christian is very thoughtful and professional. He is very easy to talk to and really made the perfect memory of our perfect day. I feel that any time constraints were understandable when he explain how a video was made and edited (as I had no clue). This isn't something that takes place overnight, even though that's what I wanted. But now I have a beautiful well done memory of the best day of my life. Thank you!! |
| Lucy Furtado | Such a positive experience, Christian is professional and courteous. Christian goes above and beyond to put together a treasured memory. I can’t say enough kind words about him and his staff. Very highly recommend |
| Makayla and Cole | Oh my goodness. We have no words.... I dont even know what to say! Thank you so so so very much for this wonderful video! It is soooo well done and so absolutely beautiful! It captured everything And even the feelings and excitement of the day! This will be cherished forever and We cannot express how thankful we are for you guys! Ahhhh AMAZING!! Tears of joy ?????? |
| Kelly & Peter Smith | I'm not sure if you remember me or not, but you did our wedding 6 years ago. I showed our 4 year old daughter our video the other day and she sat through the whole thing! It was so nice to watch the day again. It's been so long and you forget some of the small details. I just wanted to say that I really appreciate this video. You really do great work! There's so much time and passion put into it and it shows. Lots of little editing touches that really make it a wonderful keepsake. I am so very happy that I booked your services. Thank you again! |
| Taran & Rob | Chris is professional, and his presence was an added compliment to the experience of our Wedding Day. He arrived on time, dress appropriately, and knew exactly how to blend in. He was courteous to all of our guests and interacted seamlessly with us and our photographers. His passion, thoughtfulness and attention to detail are just what you need in a videographer. The editing process was lengthy, but his creative touches with our video were fun, meaningful and elegant. He also balanced the contents of what was a lot of hours very well! Thank you to Chris and Monique for welcoming us into the "Weddings By Christian" family, and for their cherished work in capturing the spirit of our Wedding Day. We are blessed to have it to remember and relive for a lifetime! |
| Ashtonne & Derrek | We absolutely love our video! It was everything we wanted and more. Thank you so much Chris for capturing our special day on video! I can't wait to share it with our families. Thank you thank you thank you. It was so incredible to re live our amazing day! |
| Ida & Fab Capotola | We would recommend Weddings By Christian to anyone and everyone who would like a perfect video of their wedding. Christian is a kind and generous videographer he captured our day flawlessly. His work ethic is fantastic and stress free. He treated us like family and made sure we were happy all day long. If you would like a videographer who puts 100% and works from the heart this is your man! Thank you for capturing our special day we are honoured to have met you!! |
| Kim & Ryan | We are very happy with the video. We did really like how the music selections were weaved in and out and loved how you did the dual screens during the speeches! Thank you!!! |
| Stefanie and Adam | Our wedding video came out amazing! I really couldn't be happier with it. We brought a copy over to Adams dads on thanksgiving to watch with the whole family and everyone agreed it was really well done. I loved watching the beginning with Adam getting ready for the wedding and all of the stuff I didn't get to see in person. Thank you so so much for capturing our big day. I'm looking forward to getting the DVD out and watching it on every anniversary (although I'm sure I'll get it out and watch it much more frequently than that!). |
| Laura and Andrew | We were so happy to relive the moments. The actual day was such a blur, so seeing it all together now was great! We especially liked watching the ceremony and the dancing at the reception. Thanks for including the jazz trio and guest messages; nice touch! Thanks for all the hard work! |
| Kim and Jake | The video was amazing! We are so happy with it! We laughed and we cried (I cried the whole video lol). Thank you so much!!!! Christian is absolutely amazing at what he does :) |
| Jen and Greg Reid | Just want to give a HUGE thank you to Christian and Monique! Thank you for coming and capturing our special day! Working with you guys for 2 years during the planning was just so easy! Thank you for working with us to make sure we got what we wanted and made sure to make it all about us and what we wanted! I completely will promote your services to any future brides and will always keep you in my mind for future events! Thank you both again! |
| Tammie and Jason | Thank you for capturing the day for us so wonderfully .... I just want to make sure you know that we love it ....it's wonderful .... You captured most amazing memories and you really did capture who we are .... Thank you again for all your hard work and dedication your work is wonderful and the video is exactly what we wanted .....you captured every detail and I've watched it 3 times now and love it more every time I watch it . Thank you again |
| Sue and Mike | Thank you very much for putting our wedding video together, we very much enjoyed it and will cherish it for years to come. We really appreciate the artistic input that Christian put into the video, it captures our day beautifully. |
| Kelly & Reg | We absolutely loved the video!!!!!!! It was better than we even imagined. Christian, we can't thank you enough!!! We adore you! |
| Robin & Rob | You were so amazing. Rob and I were so lucky to have chosen you to be our videographer. We couldn't have asked for a more patient and understanding professional. Your professionalism and working with our photographer made the day perfect. |
| Lisa and Matt | Hi Monique and Christian, The wedding video was so absolutely perfect and beautiful. I love how all the important moments were captured. It is so nice to see and hear the important people in our lives. Thank you so much for all your hard work. |
| Mary & Ryan Ball | Seeing how amazing the day was and all the people we love there celebrating the day with us is indescribable. I am sooooo glad I pushed for us to get a video done because there was so much that I missed and didn't get to see. I loved the moment when Ryan opened up his gift from me. That was awesome to see. I am really speechless on how amazing the video is. The laughter, the tears, the joy and happiness that video brought is priceless. Thank you so much for being a part of our day & capturing moments that we can cherish for many years to come. Thank you a million times over!!! |
| Andrea & Chris Belanger | I am having a hard time putting into words the professionalism and the care and creativity that was put into the creation of our wedding video. Christian was able to capture every special moment on camera so that we will have these to look back on for the rest of our lives. Everything from the music, details and just overall uniqueness of our video blows us away. It's very geared to our individuality, our likes and our personalities. I would recommend Christian for any videography that you would like special moments captured and put into video based on you! A wonderful job on detail! We just love that our video is PERFECT plus. Great job and we can not thank you enough! |
| Mike Coe - Oro Thunder | In late November I contacted Christian from WeddingsByChristian to help me with some volunteer work I do as a coach in a local hockey organization. On very short notice, Christian arrived at the Barrie Molson Center to film a hockey game for our team. The purpose of the video was meant as a keep sake for the players of this season to look back on. Christian put together a fantastic short video for the team that was shared with the families. Christian did a great job at a very reasonable price and gave the families some memories they can use today and in the future. Christian did not simply film the game, he made the game into an event, capturing the kids before the game, on the bench and after the game. He sprinkled in the highlights of the game and made a complete video from start to finish in a nice tidy package. |
| Kelly & Peter | It was worth the wait!! It's amazing. I've watched it twice so far since Friday. Christian you did a great job and captured some great moments. I am so very glad we had a video made!! Thanks again for everything! |
| Kayla & Viktor | It was really wonderful to relive our day through this video and we are really glad we decided to have the whole day filmed and will cherish it forever. We want to acknowledge and thank Christian so much for this memory and we enjoyed how he pulled it altogether. We will definitely be recommending Christian`s services to everyone we know. |
| The Pearce's | To say WeddingsByChristian is anything short of exceptional would be a disservice to this wonderful film maker. After being in two weddings that were captured by Chris and seeing the quality of his beautiful films, we knew he would be the perfect person for the job. Chris’ vision is out of this world, and pairing that with his remarkably kind spirit makes the experience with him unforgettable. Chris is also extremely professional and organized, but more importantly, he is passionate about his work, and this is clearly demonstrated in each of his films. We would highly recommend Chris to anyone out there looking for someone to capture their special day. With Chris, you don’t just get a “wedding videoâ€. You get a cinematic experience that grabs a hold of your heart and never lets go. This was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made and we couldn’t be happier with our wedding video! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Chris! Xo |
| John Dougall, Erin McCallum Band | I received the DVD you (WeddingsByChristian) created of the Erin McCallum Band’s performance at Sticky Fingers this April. Thank you so very much! After reviewing the material on the DVD, the band members and I are very pleased. We are surprised you were able to record such high volumes and such low lighting. The special effects that you added were subtle and tasteful. Our communications with you before the event were very clear, courteous and professional. You arrived at the venue, set up and recorded the performance without interruptions. We barely knew you were there. You said what you would do, and you did what you said. We also appreciated your attention to not-so-obvious details, such as your personal dress, grooming and mannerisms at the event. As this was my last performance with the band before moving to the USA, I very much appreciated that you captured the event so nicely. Thank you very much Chris! |
| Lucas & Megan | My wife and I received our first Christmas present on Christmas Eve when Christian contacted us and said everything was ready to be picked up. We were both very excited to finally watch it. While my wife and I were on our honeymoon in Iceland, we received the teaser trailer. The effort Christian did on the trailer alone was amazing and beautiful. I thought to myself....if this was our wedding video it would be enough. Our wedding video far exceeded any expectations we had. The two hour video beautifully captured the best day of our lives. My wife and I snuggled up under the blankets and hit play, we never stopped smiling. The way Christian perfectly captured the first dance was unbelievable and could not be put into words. We have watched the video a number of times since Christmas Eve with different family members. It always leaves us with the overwhelming feeling of love we both shared that gorgeous day. Thank you Christian and Monique for giving my wife and I the ability to watch our perfect day in the perfect way. You both did an amazing and wonderful job and can not thank you enough. |
| Nicole & Nathan | As soon as we viewed Christian’s work on his website, we knew we had to hire him to shoot our wedding. We have not stopped watching our teaser trailer since we received it and we cannot wait to receive our full video in October. You seem to out do yourself with every new venture. You and Monique were so professional and caring throughout the whole process. Christian, you captured all the wonderful moments of our big day, some that we were unaware that even happened, some funny and some wacky ones. You didn’t miss a beat!!! We cannot thank you enough for all the hard work you put into our day. If we had to do it all over again, we wouldn’t change a thing. We are so happy with your work that I have been contemplating what I can plan next to have you video. Thank you again. |
| T. Kirkwood | My husband passed away recently and I knew that some day I would want to look back through less pain and tears and appreciate all of the people who helped me through this difficult and horrible time, so I decided to have his Memorial videographed. Christian did the most amazing work. He was there among the crowd but so discreet that many, many beautiful moments were captured. Christian then took all of these private moments and blended them into the kindest, gentlest presentation of what will be a treasure and source of comfort to me as I move forward. Not only did he capture the moments with guests, but he built in the venue and the mood it helped to create. I know that this video has and will continue to be a huge part of my healing. Thank You, Christian! |
| Trish and Matt Kernen | We just wanted to say thank you so much for our amazing wedding video that you produced for us! Words simply cannot describe how beautiful our wedding DVD is and we are so pleased with all of the footage and so many of the special moments you have captured. You probably didn’t know that we debated for quite some time about having the event videotaped – our concerns of an intrusive camera and just being in front of a camera in general was a little intimidating for us, but everything you did throughout the day eased our fears and we are so grateful to have a wonderful video to remind us of our special day. You truly captured the spirit of the day and we will be sure to recommend you to our family and friends who are thinking of getting married or who may have other special life events they want captured. Thanks again Chris. We wish you all the best and hope you make many more couples as happy and as lucky as us. |
| Dianne & Wesley | Christian is an extremely talented videographer. My husband and I are very happy that we chose him to capture those special memories on our wedding day. We loved the wedding video and the music that went with it. We were so pleased we showed it to many people in addition to sharing it on Facebook. Both Christian and his wife, Monique, make a great team. Monique does a good administrative job. They are both very friendly and professional. I would certainly recommend him to do any wedding. |
| Jill & Matt | First off, I cannot begin to praise Christian and Monique enough for the work they do. Not only is Christian the most talented videographer I have met but both himself and Monique are such a pleasure to work with and are the most genuine people you will meet. I feel as though we have become friends since our first meeting in their home and I could not imagine a better group of people to capture our special memories. My husband and I watch it all the time and we have shared it with all of our friends and family and continue to share it with everyone! I can't recommend Christian enough. if you, or someone you know is looking for a videographer, then look no further, I have already recommended him to several friends and family! Thank you so much for capturing the essence of our day, one we will always remember and be able to reminisce over in years to come. |
| Emily & Jason | Thank you Chris for all the work you put into our wedding video…….you helped to capture the essence of our special day. Your professionalism and attention to detail made you fantastic to work with – we would highly recommend you to our friends. |
| Kimberly & Chris Krympotic | Chris and I sat down tonight and relived the best day of our lives! We absolutely LOVE the footage. What an excellent job, its everything we hoped for and more! Thank you so very much for capturing our day and creating a video we will cherish for years to come! We wouldn’t want to change anything about it and are excited to give the additional copies to our families for Christmas. |
| Sarah & Stuart Wakefield | We couldn’t have been more pleased with Christian’s professionalism in handling our wedding videography. From the moment we met him, we were able to relax in knowing that Christian would be able to capture all of our wedding day moments! The final product left us with an incredible collection of all the memories that are closest to our hearts – memories that can be passed on and always remembered. |
| Rudi Quammie Williams, Director of Culture – City of Barrie | We used WeddingsbyChristian to shoot and edit our 2012 Choralfest video. We could not be happier!! Christian was able to come in on short notice and gain a quick understanding of our event. He had to work within some challenging restrictions and in the end, gave us a product that met our expectations. In our business, the kind of professionalism demonstrated by Christian is priceless. |
| Kerth & Racquel Pierre | Kerth and I would like to express to both of you how happy we were with the service and the product that we received. It was very exiting for us to look back at the day on video and see so many precious moments that one or both of us had missed. We tell our family and friends that it is divine intervention that we met you both. You are and forever will be a big part of our wedding story. Thank you for the memories. Don’t put your video gear away, you may be doing baby videos soon. |
| Anne-Marie McAllister – Georgian College – Barrie | Recently, Georgian College hired Christian to capture an employee event on video. Not only did Chris film the day’s events but through his creativity and incredible eye for detail he captured the essence of the day to a tee. His editing skills are exceptional and we were extremely pleased with the results. The video we received is a work of art and very professionally produced. His services far exceeded our expectations. I would hire Chris again in the future without hesitating. |
| Sarah & Jon Morris | We were so pleased with our wedding video and we have watched it over and over and shared with family and friends. We found Chris and his wife Monique to be both friendly and professional. They were a joy to work with. Chris managed to capture all of our wonderful moments from our special day. We are so pleased we were able to work with Chris and Monique on our wedding day and we would highly recommend them to do a magnificent job for any videography needs you may have. |
| Paul Vigneault – Drummer for BANG ON | Chris also shoots live rock n roll performances. Being a great musician himself, he knows where to focus at all crucial moments and follows the bands dynamic very carefully. If your looking for a great promo for your bands website media, Chris is definitely the man to hire for that crucial job!!!!! |
| Kim & Cam Mansfield | We loved it! The video is wonderful. Chris perfectly captured the excitement of our wedding day. We were very apprehensive about hiring a videographer because we were afraid that the end result would be cheesy and artificial but after looking at the finished product, we couldn’t be happier. Numerous people have complimented us on both the quality and style of the video. On top of the fact that the price was extremely competitive, Chris was completely professional and attentive throughout the process. We would strongly recommend WeddingsbyChristian.com to anyone looking for high quality videography of any special event they may want to have recorded. |
| Jazz & John Bittman | Neither myself or my husband are particularly keen on having our pictures taken, let alone being videotaped. However, we couldn’t have felt more at ease or comfortable with the situation because we hardly even noticed Chris was there. There are so many memories made on your wedding day that just cannot be captured by a photograph. For me, one of the best parts of our day (other than actually getting married and listening to my husband mess up his vows…which was hilarious and thanks to Chris we can bug him about it forever), was listening to our families give their speeches. For me, this was something I am very happy to have on film because it was hard to hear everything that was said that day. My sisters were my bridesmaids and are also my best friends, so having missed out on some of their personal words to me and my husband would have been upsetting if it hadn’t have been for Chris capturing it all for us. These are memories you don’t want to miss out on and had we not had our wedding day filmed, we would never be able to get back those words spoken by the people we care about most. When we first watched our video, it was very clear that Chris had taken a lot of time to make sure that every detail and aspect of our day came out absolutely perfect. The things we had missed out on or didn’t even notice, Chris captured for us. He even took the time to get some of the music we chose to use during our ceremony from our DJ and wove it throughout our video. This was truly a pleasant surprise and one we really appreciated. The most important thing about this entire experience is that we will have this video to share with our family and friends for the rest of our lives. If anyone is looking for a videographer, Chris is an excellent choice. He was professional and took his role as our videographer very seriously. He takes pride in his work and wanted to ensure that the end result was perfect for us. He did a fantastic job with our wedding video and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!!!†|
| Stacey & Chris | After searching online and at bridal shows for a videographer that could integrate great skills, creativity with an ability to capture the real essence of what a couple is conveying in their wedding seemed like a dream itself. I remember the day I came across WeddingsByChristian online……I had a feeling that this was the one, the search was over! Christian is a marvel when it comes to achieving a high quality remembrance of one of life's most important events. Meeting Christian was such a pleasure and his reassurance that he would do his best for us was refreshing. He was very thorough and professional, working within our budget, showing us previous projects, becoming familiar with the wedding party and respected family, plus he graciously was willing to shoot a wedding 1.5 hrs away in the middle of winter. I could tell from our first meeting with Christian and Monique that if we hired them, they would be invested in us and we would not be disappointed. Not only did he do his best, he went above and beyond.....He was able to capture moments that can be viewed time and time again, was open to ideas and suggestions, and the best part he was eager to meet our needs and he was always smiling which is what every bride needs when she’s planning a wedding. When my husband and I had the chance to watch the video, we were both in tears, smiling and laughing. Christian certainly added the little touches that melt your heart, and he was also able to effectively blend the songs with the highlights of the day. I knew my insistence to have our wedding filmed was the right choice, and one I would have regretted if we had not gone with WeddingsByChristian. I think this goes without saying, but I would highly recommend his services. |
| Lorrie & John Russo | A friend of ours suggested we hire Christian from WeddingByChristian to videotape our baby shower. We thought it would be nice to have a professional video but had no idea it would be one of our most treasured memories. Chris tastefully recorded our friends and family while capturing precious moments we would have forgotten about during that hectic day. He added so much more to the raw footage and we were blown away by the end result. Pictures are great but to actually have the live video is something we will cherish forever. He suggested editing our other home videos and created a complete disc with scenes from the moment we found out we were pregnant to the day baby Michael arrived. We love the work he did and I would highly recommend him to anyone out there looking for a videographer to shoot whatever important event is happening in their lives. |
