Look, I was super against having a wedding video. I honestly had multiple arguments with my mother on how useless wedding videos were. Luckily for me, I was forced into a videographer, and one of the options given to me by my coordinator was Mel. Not only was I an angry Hispanic for being forced into a wedding video, Mel also was given the task to make an "The Office" version of our video (I specifically told her I needed to be entertained & wanted a video that made me laugh). This girl delivers. Not only did she blow my husband and I away with "The Office" style video, but our regular wedding video was beyond beautiful, not cheesy and honestly incredibly high class. Mel is incredibly personable and is able to mesh with every type of personality you are. She listens to you and understands what your vision is, even if you don't know what that is yet. Hiring her is an easy choice.
All we can say is OH EM GEE HOLY SMOKES what absolutely amazing heart felt videos that had us and our families in tears! The reason we're just now writing back is because we've been watching the videos all night on repeat lol. We can't thank you enough for the amazing work and time you put into these videos we will cherish them for life. Thank you for choosing the parts to highlight that you did, so amazing.

Honestly working with Melissa was a joy. We are based in New York and she was so responsive and easy to communicate with in planning for our destination wedding. Very low key, easygoing and has a beautiful aesthetic. Our video is absolutely amazing, capturing all the best moments and incorporating the songs we liked perfectly. The vibe was completely captured in our highlight and it just makes us want more! Thank you so much for allowing us to re-live our day through our video!
Mel was a true breath of fresh air when choosing a videographer for our wedding. After deciding against a number of local videographers, a friend told me about Melsfilms. With my wedding happening in Tampa and Mel based out of Miami, she was flexible and affordable with her traveling rates and was so easy to coordinate everything with long-distance.
From our first FaceTime, I knew she was a perfect match- we even shared an undying love of pizza. Mel went above and beyond with our videos. She filmed both our rehearsal dinner and wedding, making beautiful videos of both. Our 15-minute wedding video captured each beautiful moment of our day perfectly- my husband and I laughed and cried through the whole viewing experience.
All our friends and family have complimented us endlessly on our wedding videos. But what sticks with me most is Mel's kindness and how much we truly enjoyed being around her, even briefly, those two days. She is such a joyful person who is truly passionate about capturing others' beautiful moments. If you, like me, are finding other wedding videographers cheesy or you don't like the music used, etc., etc., Mel is the original and beautiful videographer you've been looking for to genuinely capture your day so you can relive it over and over again.
After months of searching I came across Melissa's videos on instagram and was dead set on having her shoot our wedding! I had been looking for a very specific look and feel for what I wanted our wedding video to be like. We had her film our ceremony and do a highlight video for us. Our ceremony video is perfection, it captured the ceremony so well and I can't wait to show it to my future kiddos someday! We also were able to send it to some friends and family that weren't able to be there and that was really special. I highly recommend including the ceremony in your package! As the bride especially, it was so nice for me to be able to see what it looked like when our family and wedding party walked down the aisle. Our highlight video was also incredible! There was sound inserts from our ceremony, my husbands vows. and speeches at the wedding and it all flowed so well with the rest of the video. My husband and I also both loved the songs she chose! Most of the day we didn't even realize that Melissa was there because she worked so hard to not take away from our special day by making us feel like we were always on camera. When we received our video I was shocked all the little moments that she captured. It was also her first time working with our photographer I believe and she worked so well with him and it didn't feel like they were competing for our time at all that day which was really nice because I've heard horror stories about that! Thanks to Mel's video we will always be able to cherish our memories from our day! Thank you so much Melissa! You're the best!
