Amazing photo and video for our dream Sikh Punjabi Wedding

We had the privilege of working with Frank and Jen for all our wedding festivities.

They were truly the most thoughtful, caring, friendly, skilled and professional team we could have ever hoped for.

From the moment we met them at our first meeting in 2020 we knew we found the right match. They helped us capture our dream wedding in 2022 and all our pre-wedding events.

The thought and care that they put into identifying the best shots and creating epic next day edits were phenomenal.

They coordinated and managed their entire team at our functions and helped capture every detail we could have asked for.

I can't say enough about how much they put us at ease through the process and made every event fun and enjoyable.

We were so thrilled with all our photos and videos and feel like they provided such high quality in every aspect of their production.

Frank and Jen are an amazingly skilled team who were everything we could have dreamed for and more. Their passion and skills are evident in all they do. My wife and I can't say enough about how much we loved working with them and would recommend them to anyone looking to capture their most precious life moments!

Jen & Frank are fantastic to work with and are amazing at what they do. The photo and video provided by their team was exceptional and met every expectation we wanted from our wedding photo and videos. They really made our ideas come to life and we really loved our same day edit from start to finish. If you are looking for a photographer and videographer for your upcoming wedding, I highly recommend Jen and Frank and the VanWeddings team. All the guests and ourselves included were blown away with the final product! Below is our wedding highlight video :)

We found Van Weddings through their website and liked their style.
We decided to go with them because they were responsive and attentive. We were planning our wedding in Vancouver, long distance, from USA. We needed a company that we can trust and Van Weddings' professionalism and responsiveness gained our trust.
We made a right choice picking them because they were exactly as we wanted them to be. They listened to our requests and considered our unique style, on the day and after for picking sound tracks, etc.
Thank you Van Weddings for recording our most precious moments. Good job!

Jen and Frank are an amazing couple with such a talent for videography and capturing special moments. We could not have hired a better service to capture one of the best moments of our lives on our wedding day. They are professional, kind, flexible and produce a wonderful outcome that exceeded our personal expectations. We'd highly recommend their service to other couples who are planning to get engaged or married.

Frank and Jen did an amazing job with our wedding trailer and video. It was completed with all our ideas in mind. They came dressed professionally and worked very well with our other vendors on the day of the event. We love the final products, they captured the day exactly how we asked them to (with lots of music and not too much talking!). We would definitely recommend their services to family and friends. Thank you again!

Seeing my sister's wedding trailer (done by VanWeddings), i instantly knew that we too would absolutely have to hire them! The professionalism throughout the whole pre, during and post wedding was so consistent that it was too easy for us to leave everything in their hands.Everything was completed in a timely fashion, and the final product was breathtaking. The smallest details were captured, that happened to be personal and representative of our personalities (me telling my husband that he was late for the ceremony).
Thank you VanWeddings for everything! You were such a pleasure to work with! We will definitely be recommending you to all of our friends and family! We also wish that we had another wedding for you to capture!
Lots of love and gratitude,
Azra & Rick

If you want your wedding day captured in the light you remember it, do not look further than VanWeddings Cinematography. Our wedding day was a fairytale and our video captured its essence to the "T".
Frank and Jen are absolute proffesionals and a true pleasure to work with.
In the past i've seen wedding videos of my friends, and unfortunately for them, they didn't have Frank and Jen's expertise.
The trailer is like a mini Hollywood video and is such a nice touch, as all the friends/family based worldwide got to see it so quickly. I have sent mine to all my friends/family/colleagues....and they have passed it on to theirs. Its crazy when you meet someone for the first time, first thing they say to you is "Your wedding video was amazing.....i cried", before i have even told them my name.

Our full video captured every single special moment, look, touch, tear, smile and emotion of that fabulous day!

Honestly, I cannot say enough just how thankful we are to Jen and Frank for doing such an AMAAAAZZZIIIIINGGG job!

Jen and Frank from VanWeddings are amazing people. They are very much in love and therefore had a better insight into what we wanted from our wedding video. Our wedding was 5 months ago and I still watch our video once a week. It brings tears to my eyes everytime. Thanks to VanWeddings Cinematography, we will be able to relive the beauty, romance and emotion of our special day for the rest of out lives.
