EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would like to thank all the Origin weddings team for making our special day extra special, especially Keesha, and Danny who have been very attentive to our concerns, and making our wedding video extra special. Keesha has been very professional, and have taken all my notes and relayed them to the team in time to create such a beautiful memorable piece for our wedding ! Thank you all as a team from our deep hearts for the effort you have put inPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Origin Weddings for both photography and videography for our wedding, and they were absolutely amazing. Andrew and Danny were so professional, kind, and supportive throughout the entire day, and they really made everything feel special and effortless. They captured so many beautiful moments while also making us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera with their directions. Honestly, they made us feel like celebrities lol. We’re so grateful we chose them and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photo/video team! They captured traditional shots like details shots and family portraits and special romantic moments. They both took the time to "scope out" our venue to look for cute and secluded locations for photos and videos which we found so special. On top of that, they have a dedicated team member that helps you with any questions along the way and to work with you regarding budgeting. If you're on the fence about hiring Origin Weddings, I would advise you to just hire them. They are worth it.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Origin Wedding staff, specifically Manav Matta, Mashal Asif, Andrew MacLennan, and Telly Bitsakakis arrived on time, fully prepared, and excited to work. From the moment we introduced ourselves to each other, I knew they were passionate, dependable, and committed to capturing our special day with care and creativity. Besides their professionalism and creativity, I was impressed by their teamwork; despite never having worked together before, they seamlessly coordinated, never got in each other’s way, and consistently communicated to ensure the best content was captured from the most flattering angles. Furthermore, they eagerly adapted to any last-minute requests made by either myself or the bride. Their attention to detail and ability to anticipate key moments before they happened made their skills and experience evident to everyone. In addition to their professional abilities, I would like to comment on their personalities. All four were a joy to work with. Their approachability and enthusiasm created a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere for everyone present. We appreciated their patience, understanding, and kind communication when it came to directing guests in and out of important shots. Krystael and I also appreciated their shared sense of humour, which made our day more fun. The photos and video we received were nicely edited and we were so excited to share them. On behalf of everyone involved, we are forever grateful for their hard work and exceptional results. Because of them, we will always be able to remember our wedding exactly as it was—perfect. Much Appreciated, Teodor and KrystaelPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These guys were great!

Thank you to the origin team for all their hard work and dedication 🥰Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Origin Weddings to video our wedding day and cannot recommend them enough. We had Danny as our videographer and not only was he extremely professional, but he always went above and beyond to get the perfect shot. He captured everything so beautifully and we loved the final product. Plus, getting all the raw footage was a huge bonus, we love that we can watch the full ceremony, speeches, and of course the little bloopers in between. They were amazing and you won’t regret working with them.
