Here’s what our happy Bride & Grooms had to say about our services:
EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the moment we first reached out to Origin Weddings we knew we were in good hands. They were warm, professional, and genuinely excited to capture our big day. On the wedding day, the entire photo and video team was amazing. They blended right in with our guests, made everyone feel comfortable, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. They captured so many candid, emotional moments that we didn’t even realize were happening at the time. We’re endlessly grateful to Danny and Manav for preserving these memories so beautifully. It was nice to have a wedding photography and videography team that truly cares to preserve your special moments. With love and gratitude, Jordan and Alexandra DelnickPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a wonderful time working with Pouya & his team last weekend as another vendor! The whole Origin team was very friendly and supportive! They were totally on the ball with everything and the whole wedding went without a hitch. Highly recommend Origin Weddings and their photo/video and photo booth team! Thanks guys!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had such a great experience with Danny on our wedding day as our videographer! He made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera, which really helped us enjoy the moment. His professionalism and calm energy made the whole experience so easy and fun; we truly couldn’t have asked for a better videographer to capture our moment! Nicole was such a huge part of it all as well, always so responsive, easy to coordinate with, and bringing such positive energy to every meeting we had! We recommend Origin Weddings to anyone on their beautiful and magical day!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Origin Weddings was amazing and we cannot recommend them enough!! One of our family friends showed us his wedding video and we wanted to recreate a similar feeling. After meeting Nicole we knew that we were going to love working with the team. She was so kind, organized and knew exactly how to make sure that we got everything planned until the day of the wedding. It really helped put us at ease knowing that she was on top of the coordination! We had the absolute luck of having both Pouya and Carolyn there to capture our May wedding. Pouya was an absolute lovely human and his infectious energy really helped keep not only our spirits high but also our wedding party and our guests. He always went the extra mile when he could; even batting away some pesky Northern Ontario flies from ruining certain shots. Carolyn's eye for framing and ensuring that she was creating an environment for the storytelling aspect of the video was awesome. She was a super lovely presence to have beside us through an absolute whirlwind of a day. Watching them work and the passion they both bring to capturing the video (along with some hilarious competitive moments) really was appreciated as we were both nervous leading up to and on the day. They always made sure to put a smile on our face and make the whole day fun and keep us in the moment. Last shoutout goes to Keesha and the team whom we are thankful for on the editing side. Even through the notes we had, they were able to create some beautiful memories that we hope to show to our future family some day!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Danny and Nicole were such a joy to work with! Nicole took care of us from the minute we booked them and even now is still answering my many questions! She was quick to respond to everything and was kind and friendly in every communication. Danny is the kind of person you just want to hug. His warmth and caring demeanour is what every bride and groom needs on such a stressful but exciting day! He worked so well with our photographer and made us feel very comfortable. He was so slick that I did not even see him setting up all the cameras until later in the evening so he did not miss a single moment. He checked in with us throughout the day to make sure we had captured everything we wanted and encouraged us to be "us" which was wonderful. We only just got married so we have not seen the final results yet but just seeing his creative and fun style on the day, I have not a single doubt that it will be incredible. The Origin team is talented, professional, and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend hiring them for the big day, you are sure to be well taken care off and will have a great time working with them!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Origin Weddings was incredible to work with the from the day I met them at the bridal show. Nicole helped me so much with the itinerary, made planning fun and was so easy to work with. Wedding planning can be so stressful when you don't have an actual planner and whenever I spoke with her or emailed her, I always felt a lot calmer after. Carolyn was our photographer and Pouya was our videographer and they were an absolute dream to work with. Their attention to detail is outstanding, they paid attention to how we were feeling throughout the night and knew exactly when to pull us and when to let us process the wedding day or take breaks. They were relaxing, funny, friendly and made us, our wedding party and our families extremely comfortable and we actually had a very fun time with them. I got so many compliments from my family and our guests on how great they were and my husband and I couldn't have been happier. They always went out of their way for us and we had a permanent smile on our face whenever we were with them. There aren't enough words to describe what a pleasure it was and it was worth every penny. We just reviewed the raw photos/videos and a sneak peak of the edited pictures and they are amazing!! Thank you for capturing our dream wedding in the best way possible!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It's always a pleasure to work with the Origin Wedding Team! This May 25th wedding at the King Edward Hotel was no exception! Pouya was the Lead Videographer and he was such positive energy to have around; he is collaborative and immensely skilled in his craft, what a professional! If you're still in search of a Photo & Video Team for your upcoming wedding, look no further! Pouya, Nicole, and the whole squad are just amazing! Thanks for everything!
