We've been honored to create wedding films for hundreds of incredible couples. Each one of their stories is distinctive and we pride ourselves on creating moving films that artistically convey those love stories. We believe your wedding is not just about one day. It’s about your story leading up to that day and the stories that will come after. Our wedding videos bring your day to life – allowing the two of you to relive every laugh, every tear, and every moment that went by in a flash. Your loved ones will thank you for allowing your celebration to serve as a legacy of family history for generations to come.

Toast Weddings was the perfect choice for our wedding videography needs. From the very beginning, their team was responsive, compassionate, and highly professional in their communication. The quality of their work was excellent - they captured all the special, custom moments of our wedding day in Waialua, Hawaii with a keen eye for detail. As a couple who was 7 months pregnant with our first child at the time, the Toast Weddings team went above and beyond to cater to our unique situation and make sure our memories were beautifully preserved. Our videographer, Jason, had a truly creative vision that shone through in the final highlight video we received just 3 months after our wedding. We are beyond happy with our experience and the forever memories Toast Weddings has given us of our special day.

We were thrilled with the services provided by Reel Love Video for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Ash was warm, responsive, and professional in her communication. She worked with us to customize a videography package that fit our needs and budget perfectly. On the wedding day, Ash was discreet and unobtrusive, yet she was able to capture beautiful, artistic footage that truly reflected the spirit of our ceremony.

Awarded Best of Zola
Still Do was so helpful and professional from the very first meeting. We booked for just videography services. Last week, our videographer was unexpectedly not available, but Still Do Media handled this situation very carefully and calmly, and they had a standby videographer in the backup team. Matt, our backup videographer, is amazing! He stepped in a few days before the wedding with professionalism and positive energy. He captured every detail in perfect style. I just had a little bad experience with how they deliver raw footage unprofessionally. Folders and clips are messed up and disorganized. But our experience with Still Do Media is incredible. We are always thankful for making our wedding such a memorable and joyful experience!

Awarded Best of Zola
There aren't enough words to describe how wonderful Steven and his team are. My husband and I chose his "Wedding Video" package and have absolutely zero regrets. From the start, Steven had the most clear communication and upmost professionalism. We knew exactly what to expect but he went even above and beyond that! He treated us as if we were long-time friends and that truly made the difference. For us, photo and video were our most important vendors and we would choose Wild Light Films 100x over if given the chance. He accommodated every request I had and would reply to all of my emails so quickly. I was my own wedding planner, but Steven made the process of booking and coordinating video so easy. Honestly, I never stressed about my choice for videographer after booking. My advice to any couples out there would be to go for it! Trust his vision and art, it truly all comes together so beautifully. I gave him full reign with my videos and absolutely loved every part of them. We used Jules, his associate videographer, for the actual capturing of footage and wanted to give him a proper shout out too! He was lively, fun, and felt like part of the family! Everyone enjoyed his company and creative direction! Steven, I know we are a small part of your career, but thank you so much for being such a huge part of the best day of our lives and making us feel so special.

Hi! I’m Mitchell, a wedding filmmaker based in Indiana. I create documentary-style films focused on the small, quiet moments couples actually want to remember. I’m not big on staging or posing — I prefer capturing things as they happen, so the film feels genuine and emotional rather than “performed.” Every wedding I film includes a handcrafted feature film and a full-day documentary edit with vows, speeches, and dances preserved in full.

As a wedding venue owners of The Wilds Wedding Venue in Bloomington, Indiana (www.thewildsvenue.com), we have had the unique opportunity to work alongside several amazing wedding industry vendors. In doing so, we’ve grown to greatly appreciate Mitchell Gaston Films. Their team is not only incredibly talented, but are also experienced, true professionals. If you're looking for an amazing videography experience and film, look no further!

We used Conner for our wedding on May 3, 2025. We were looking for a DJ and our photographer who had worked with him multiple times had recommended him…. Fast forward we found out he also did videography and we booked him for both- and we are so glad we did! He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined.
