A few words of praise and thanks from just some of our satisfied couples:

Dear Richard, Finally got the nerve up to watch my wedding video and i have to say what an excellent job you made with it. Considering i wasn't going to have a video i'm so glad my friends talked me into it. Just love the way you captured the days best bits without intruding on people, and kept the video short and to the point. It brought a smile to my face reliving my big day. Many thanx Richard, your truly talented in your work.

Best Wishes, Fiona & Liam Flood

I cant tell you enough how happy I am with the video of our wedding we received from Richard. It was way beyond what I had ever expected from the DVD and am absolutely delighted that we asked Richard from Bride & Groom Films to do the job. He was so professional and has given us some beautiful memories that would have been lost if it wasnt for him. I will recommed him to everyone who is getting married, or infact needs a videographer for any occasion.

Hi Richard, We got our DVD's yesterday, and watched it (several times!) last night - we are totally thrilled with it.... thank you.  Both the quality of filming and editing are fantastic, and you really captured the flavour of the day for us.  To be honest, Garrett wasn't that fussed about getting a video done - he was worried that it would be too obtrusive on the day, and didn't think he would bother watching it.... but he was the one insisting on reruns of it last night, and he's already been on the phone to a mate of his recommending you for their forthcoming wedding! We both reckon it was the best money we spent on the wedding. Thank you for doing such a great job, both on the day, and afterwards.  We will recommend you to all and sundry.

Bride & Groom Films are the greatest. Richard, thanks very much for all the hard work you put into our wedding video. We love it.

Richard, Thank you so much for the dvd.  I can't stop watching it even though I am photograph-phobic!! Every part of the day was captured beautifully and the timing with the music is genius. It is something we will definitely treasure forever.  You were really great on the day although I think I met you once and didnt see you until you were going.  Will definitely be recommending you to anyone we know getting married.  Thanks again.

Hi Richard, We received our wedding DVD some time ago now (wedding was in August 07) but we wanted to say thanks-it was great!. We became a little worried a few days after the wedding (when things began to cool down!!), because we began to think of when we actually saw you filming and we began to ask ourselves if you got very much of the Church and reception at all!!!(and you probably know yourself-there's a lot of so-called professionals out there) But when we got the DVD - it was great. You were there after all!! The DVD was very professional and you inserted the music we gave you at just the right times. It's something we can enjoy looking at for the rest of our lives. Many Thanks

We decided at the last minute on a having a video done professionally and are both so delighted that we did do this. Photographes are lovely but they just don't capture the day the way the video does. Richard just seemed to get all the special little things in the day that we remembered but don't have photographs of and he managed to even add a few suprises to our video which we loved. It has been lovely in the last two weeks to sit down and just look at certain sections again which I think is more a girlie thing but I just adore it. Both of us would have no hesitation in recommending Richard for anyones wedding and wish him all the best in the future.

Richard, We just finished watching the DVD (twice). It is absolutely amazing, better than we thought a wedding video could be! I'm glad I changed my mind and got a video made because without it the memories of our big day just wouldn't be complete. Our photographs were great but just weren't enough. You got our vows, our family and friends, the speeches, the entire day just expertly edited together. The highlights you put together to our favourite song is just pure artistry. Paul said it was like a real film. Richard thank you so so much, we are proud to show this to everyone we know and to recommend you to everyone in the future.

Laura and Paul Sheridan  
   

We just wanted to thank you so much Richard for our Wedding DVD, we just love it and it has brought all the emotion and memories of our special day to come flooding back. You were a true professional on the day and we honestly didnt notice you at all during the day. Everybody said how discreet you were and how comfortable you made people feel, especially the interviews at the end. Thanks again for giving us all the memories that we can now share with our family and friends.  We wish you great success in the future.

Sarah Ann & Eamon Mulqueen

Richard Having looked at the DVD we are THRILLED with the result.  It was just amazing and we are delighted that you captured our special day just the way we wanted.  We will be recommending you highly.  Best of luck for the future. 

Regards, Helen & Richard

I'm finished with speeches for the rest of my life so I will keep this short. All I will say is thank you Richard for the surprise of our lives when we returned from our honeymoon. The best day of our lives, to re-live again and again forever. I'll be proud to show the grandkids. Cheers mate.

I e-mailed Richard to thank him for the great job he did on our wedding video and then spoke to him on the phone because I wanted to buy extra copies of our DVD. I offered to leave a testimonial here since I was so happy with his work. I don't have much to say except that you will not regret it if you choose Richard. He was so nice even before our wedding, very helpful and professional. He was on time all day long, we hardly noticed him and he was still able to produce a top-class video. The highlights at the end of the video made my husband cry (don't tell him I told you) and that is quite an achievement! The highlights are particularly nice because whenever I don't feel like watching the entire video, I can re-live the best day of my life in 5 minutes and again I am speechless. I can't recommend Richard enough to future couples.

Richard at one point during our big day I said to Stephen that you didn't seem to be doing anything. I knew I had made the right choice based on your work but you didn't seem to be filming a lot, in fact I hardly saw you at all on the day although I knew you were there. When we watched the DVD last week we both just said "Wow!"  There is so much detail and emotion to every section of the DVD. You got all the small things that I didn't even see on the day myself. Our candle, our cake, the champagne, the head table!!and the details that matter that we never would have been able to see again if it weren't for the masterpiece you made for us. The quality of the DVD is great, thank you.

Richard of Bride and Groom Films did our wedding video in May and it is our most treasured wedding gift. We watched literally dozens of demo DVDs from other wedding videomen and Richard's work just stood out as being the most professional (in fact, he was the only option). We don't regret our decision for one second. Our family and friends commented and said that the video was great. They were expecting the video to be cheesy like most wedding videos, but they all loved it and Richard will be doing my sister's wedding next year as a result. I can't put it in words how glad I am that I picked Richard to video my wedding. Bride & Groom Films is the best! Thanks Richard!!

We recently got married and have just got our DVD. Our videographer was Richard from Bride and Groom films. On the day, and even on the lead up to the wedding he was so nice and friendly and easy to deal with and easy to talk to.  On the actual day he was fantastic i never really noticed him, he was very professional and very helpful. I was so nervous thinking about the DVD as i hate video cameras and stuff like that but after watching it, i have to say it was the best money we spent. I could sit and watch it over and over again. After all you spend so much time and money on this day and you put soo much effort into it, its great to have it all captured, especially after coming home after the HM and your on such a downer, its so great to relive it all over again. Also the DVD was just shot so well, its really beautiful and professional. Richard really did an excellent job, it could'nt of been done better. So if any of you B2B have Richard as your videographer you are in good hands.   And if some of you havent decided on your videographer then you should definitely consider Bride and Groom Films, i couldn't recommend them more.

Karen & Clayton, Darver Castle, June 2007
      

Hi Richard Just wanted to say that both Brian and I are really delighted with the wedding DVD you did for us. Your professionalism shines throughout as does the unobtrusive manner by which you carry out your work. We really could not be happier and wish you every success in your future endeavors. We certainly would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending you to anyone for any occasion that they may want captured forever. Kindest Regards

Catherine & Brian, Cavan Crystal Hotel, August 2007
 

Richard did a fabulous job on our wedding video. He was unobtrusive but managed to get some great footage. He was a pleasure to meet and I would highly recommend him.

Deirdre & Alan
     

It's absolutely fantastic. We love it. It brings back lots of happy memories. Thanks so much, B and G.

Beatrice & Gerard
 

Hi Richard, We just wanted to thank you for filming our wedding last December. We hadn't originally planned on having the day recorded but now we are so happy that we did. You were fantastic on the day and worked so discreetly we almost didn't notice that all the special moments of our day were being filmed right in front of us. The finished product is just lovely and was very cleverly and tastefully edited with obvious professionalism.   The video is absolutely our most treasured wedding gift and we will keep it always to remind us of our special day. We would highly recommend your service and would urge anyone who is unsure whether to have a video just to have a look at some of your work and we believe they will instantly change their mind. We wish you all the very best of luck with Bride & Groom Films although we have no doubt you have a very successful future ahead of you.

Bernard & Tara Walsh
     

We finally watched the wedding film and we are delighted with it. We are so glad that we decided to get the video done. You caught so much of the day that seemed to pass us by, with everything else that was going on. Even himself who wasn't too keen on getting it done is delighted we did and with the outcome.

Lyn & Justin 19/01/07
     

Hi Richard. We have received our videos and just wanted to say that we are delighted with them. You captured bits of the day that we had totally missed. Thechurch images at the end and the black and white shots really made the video.  Thanks again for all you did. We will be proud to show the video to all our families and friends.

Kindest wishes, Michael & Sarah Conroy.
     

Just wanted to let you know we received the DVDs. What a great job you did we really liked the editing and everything. I would definitely recommend you.

Eileen & Alan, June 23rd 2007
      

We used Richard Finlay of BRIDE & GROOM FILMS I have to say on the day I was like where is the video guy. Then we saw the DVD and my God, I was totally blown away with what he captured!! He captured EVERYTHING!!! I seriously couldn't recommend him enough!!! He was so discrete!!!

Amy & Declan, commenting as "Christmas B" on the Weddings Online.ie website
     

Hi Richard, we just watched the DVD, absolutely delighted with it.  We couldn't believe how much we missed on the day that you caught on camera.  Fantastic! 

Thanks again, Jennie & Paul   
   

Richard I'm just dropping you a quick e-mail to let you know that David and I are so pleased with the wedding video you made for us.  We received it months ago when we got back from our honeymoon in Vegas, but we never got back to you to let you know how much we loved it.  I have watched it literally about a thousand times since.  We had all the family over at Christmas and they loved it too.  We will recommend Bride and Groom Films to anyone we know who is getting married in Dublin.

Niamh and David  
    

Hi Richard, We got the DVD's & they are nearly worn out at this stage! Thanks so much for the great job you did, we're delighted with it. Our only regret was that we should have booked you for longer on the day! The 3 copies were a real surprise so thanks again all the mammies are thrilled! Thanks again for the super job, we'll certainly reccommend your company to any other couple.  Kind Regards

Susan & Garrett  
   

Richard, Thank you so much. The wedding dvd is excellent, better than we ever expected. In fact, we are so impressed with it that we just cant stop watching it. It is so well done and the music and timing of everything in it is just 100%. Thank you so much. We will be definitley recomending you to everyone we know.

Thanks again, Pam & Stephen Whelan
 

Hi Richard Thank you for the DVD's we received them on Thursday.  They are fab you did a great job and a lovely choice of music we couldn't have done better.  It's really great to relive the day again and see all the things we missed and forgot. Thanks again

Caroline & Chris Zambra
     

Hi Richard, Just want to say that you done a great job producing our wedding video, its been nearly two months since the wedding day and we totally relived it watching the DVD this weekend. Absolutely Brilliant. You captured some brilliant shots but on top of all of that you used some great music to accompany the footage. We will be recoommending you to anyone we know who is getting married in the future.

Mathew & Elaine Elliott  
    

Hi Richard,  

We recieved our video today and we are absolutely delighted with it, the music is brilliant, you picked songs we would never have taught of and they are really cool (delighted no Celine Dion like probably every other wedding video around), you really captured the mood of the day and have left us with a fabulous momento of our day, we will gladly recommend you if any of our friends decide to take the plunge.   Thanks again for everything

Hazel & Ken  
    

Richard, I cant thank you enough for the great job you did with our wedding dvd, I never would of imagined it turning out so well. Only have it a week and two friends already want to book you!!! Thanks again and best of luck in the future...

Donna & John Carrick
      

Hi Richard, We both want to thank you so much for the amazing DVD you produced for us. We couldn't wait to see it and it is so much more than we could have expected. On the day you were so professional and unobtrusive, it was like you were never there!! My sister cried when she saw our dvd and booked you straight away for her own wedding! Thanks for doing a fantastic job! We would recommend you to anyone. 

Grainne & Gerry  
    

Hi Richard, 

We received our dvd on Friday last. We are absolutely delighted with it. It was everything we wanted and MORE! You were a true professional on the day and we hardly noticed you at all during the day. Everybody said how discreet you were. We have watched it so many times! Thanks again for giving us lovely memories of our day.

Shiree & Seamus, March 15th 2008  
         

Wow!!  What can we say?  We are absolutley thrilled with our DVD.  Richard you captured everything, especially the small details that on the day are easily missed by the bride and groom.  Superb camera work, we smile every time we re-live the day.  This is something we know our children's children will enjoy.  Fantastic - many, many thanks.

Kerry and Charlie, Harvey's Point, April 2008  


Hi Richard,  I can't argue with perfection!  Its brilliant.  Exhausted today having watched it 6 times in a row :)

Cheers, Nessa
 

Everybody who watches our Wedding DVD is amazed, they all loved it! He really captured the energy and happiness of our Wedding Day. My niece still watches it on a daily basis!! He was thoroughly professional and had our DVD back to us in great time! Would recommend him to anybody. Thanks for giving us such a beautiful memory of our day.

Best Wishes, Ciara & Patrick Ryan 
  

Hi Richard, I received the DVDs this morning. Thank you so so much. I am absolutely delighted with it. I only had it on 5 mins and it had me in tears, great to re-live the day and see the details I didn't even notice on the day. You captured everything. I am glad that I had you on the day, I didn't like a lot of the photos my photographer took and there were few showing my son and my dress, you captured them all and this means so much to me.  Another thing I loved was that you used the music I walked down the aisle to and some of the other music from the church which I thought was lovely.  it really brought back the moment to me.  It is more than I ever expected. Well worth the wait. Can't wait to sit down tonight with Tommy and watch it again. Our plan was to watch it together and put it away and never watch it again because of the embarrassment but I will not be doing that. I love it, so I will be giving copies to my family and watching it over and over again. Thanks again for everything Richard, I will be highly recommending you to others.

Samantha
      

Richard, thank you so much!  We received our wedding DVD.  You captured some of the best moments on our day, that we never even got to see until now!   Your professional manner was admired by all of our guests, some of which hope to contact you in the near future. Thank you for the life-time memories!!! Best Wishes

Paul & Donna Marie Byrne
      

Have just watched our wedding DVD, and it has just exceeded our expectations completely. You captured moments we didn't realise could be captured at all. The whole thing is just like a romantic film. The editing is outstanding. I always wanted to know what Shane's face looked like as I was walking down the aisle!! I had no idea he was so emotional and you captured it perfectly. Thank you so much Richard. I cannot recommend you enough. We would wish you luck for the future, but really...you don't need it!!

Kate and Shane Brilly
    

Hi Richard, Just a word of thanks for an excellent job on our DVD. It was really well done. Easy to see why you got an award for your work. I'm sure we will see you again in the future.   Thanks again,

Niall and Marie, Wedding June 2008

O my God!!  The DVD is fantastic.  Worth waiting for!  The quality of both the picture and sound is first class. You captured all the special moments beautifully.  I will definitely recommend you to friends and family.  Thanks so much.

Patricia & James Bennett  
    

Richard, We just wanted to say thank you so much for the excellent job you have done on our wedding DVD. It really is something that we will treasure forever and we look forward to sitting down in years to come watching it again and again. So many people have commented on the quality of the sound and colour.  I never thought I'd forget a second of the day but it's amazing to see all the little things that I had forgotten about already! Money can't buy all the memories you've captured for us, thank you again.

Linda and Shane
      

Where do I start? I can't rate Richard highly enough, he was brilliant to deal with from start to finish. We're based in the west and I was a bit iffy about getting someone so far away, speaking to Richard put my mind at ease. He couldnt be more helpful and I have to say I genuinely didnt notice him filimg yet he captured some of the moments that I didn't get to see on the day. The quality of the sound and colour really is second to none. Everyone says nice things when they watch your wedding dvd but so many people have told me how easy it was to watch, it just flows so well together. If anyone is looking for a videographer or just considering having one then log on to his website www.brideandgroom.ie or pm me if you'd like me to rave some more about him!

Dear Richard, Just to let you know we got the wedding DVD and its great, well worth the wait, you captured everything brilliantly. Thanks again for all your help and have a happy new year and continued success for 2009 Kind regards

Paraic & Lynsey
     

Hi Richard,   Sorry I haven't got in touch with you sooner to say thank you very much for our Wedding DVD.  We are so happy with it and everyone in our family agree. We will defo be recommending you to all our friends and family.  You were good fun on the day and didn't make us nervous and it shows all that on the DVD. My sister has already booked you for her wedding in November '09 and we look forward to seeing you. Thanks again Richard, you're a true professional.

Michelle and Brian Smith  
    

Hi Richard, Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year.  I should have contacted you before now but with Christmas etc....it was a bit hectic for a while.  Thank you so much for the DVD.  It was fantastic and we are really delighted with it.  You captured everything and it was great to look at parts of it that we missed ourselves on the day.  I will highly recommend you to anyone in the future that I know getting married. Thank you so much!

Kelly & Chris  
    

Hi Richard,   The DVDs have arrived and we are really delighted with them, thanks a million for doing such a great job, it was so exciting seeing the day replayed again and the music is perfect, thank you so much.

Stephanie & John  
    

We both consider this the best money we spent on the day.  We had Richard Finlay of Bride and Groom Films and he was fab - very unobtrusive on the day, but he still managed to pick up on all the important moments. I think the big difference between having it done professionally and having friends video it for you is in the editing. We watched the DVD over and over when we first got it, and it really brought back all the excitment of the day, and there's some really cute bits that the best of photographers couldn't get.  I wouldn't say I watch it as much now, but it's definitely one of the first things I would rescue if the house were on fire (even before the wedding photo's)!

We really enjoyed the DVD, we haven't stopped watching it!  You really did a great job with it. Thanks very much for everything,

Sinéad & Gary
      

We were so pleased with Richard's work.  He was great to deal with and was very professional.  We didn't even notice he was there half the time.  He captured every piece of the day.  I have watched the DVD many times and still see something I didn't see the first time.  He was able to use some songs we gave him which made the DVD even more special.  He produced a high quality DVD that we will be able to watch over and over again.  We would highly recommend Richard.

Sylvia & Keith, The Brooklodge, June 2nd 2008
    

Thank you so much Richard.  We loved the DVD and I have watched it a total of 5 times in the past 36 hours!  

Carmel & Roger  
  

Thank you so much Richard.  You captured the day perfectly even down to the music.  It was more than what we expected.  You have given us something we can enjoy for years to come.

Tracy & David  
  

Hi Richard, Thank you so much for the DVDs - we watched it over the weekend and it was brilliant.  Thanks again for the soundtrack to the ceremony, a really nice touch. You really captured our day as it was and it's a real treasure for us now. Thanks a million.

Cynthia & Rodger  
  

Hi Richard,   THANKS A MILLION for our wedding video, I couldn't be happier with it.   The video is absolutely fantastic, and as promised it was indeed worth the wait. As I'm sure you can imagine, we had forgotten bits and pieces of the day so it was the best thing to be able to relive it all (and without the ridiculous nerves this time!) - particularly the speeches, which of course we only remembered piecemeal. I have to say it was highly amusing to sit back in comfort and watch, first hand, the lads nerves during the speeches - priceless - I hadn't realised just how nervous they were.   I was really surprised at how thorough it is, how complete - nothing of the day is missing, which of course is what I hoped for but somehow didn't expect to the level of the video. I'm SO pleased I can't tell you. My only regret about the entire thing is that I didn't go the whole hog and get you to stay for the entire time because the rest of the night was brilliant craic and there were some priceless moments that should definitely have been caught on tape (not sure if that would even have been an option).   On the actual day, I was pleasantly surprised not to notice the camera at all really. Not having done this before we were weary that there would be lights and cables and mikes and such like but I am delighted to say it couldn't have been further from that idea.   Thanks again for capturing our day so well and so completely - I would highly recommend you to others as it is definitely one wedding bill that was worth every last penny - you just can't buy those memories.

Orla & Paul Sheedy
      

Hi Richard   I watched the DVD at the weekend and really enjoyed it as did my family, thanks so much for doing a wonderful job on the DVD.
Much appreciated,
Martina & Eamonn

    

Hi Richard,   We received our wedding DVDs on Monday and we are both very happy with them. The sound and picture quality is very good, and we will recommend you in the future.   Thanks, I might see you at another wedding some day.

Eric
      

Hello Richard,   Thanks, we are really delighted with the DVD, it's fantastic to have all those memories captured from the day, you did a great job on getting it all together and on the day, you were very subtle with the camera, I barely noticed you there at all thoughout the day. Everyone is really over the moon with it.   Thanks again

Patricia Dilworth
    

If my husband keeps watching this DVD it won't be there to watch in 20 years!!!  That is how fantastic it is even down to the background music.  I cried watching it as I loved all songs that Richard chose.  It is a fabulous memory to keep forever & I would highly recommend Richard to anyone reading this.

Mairead & Emmet Butler
    

Hey ya richard, well i got the dvds and absolutely loved it!!!  it was so much better than i expected. everyone loved it thank you so much!  i have a few friends getting married next year and i could not recommend you highly enough. thanks again

Sandra and Brian
    

Dear Richard Thank you again for all your help throughout, it has been a pleasure to deal with you & we were very impressed with the DVD it was great work that had us crying & laughing in equal measures! Thanks again

Janette
      

Hi Richard We got our DVD on Friday and we all watched it Friday night. It was absolutely fantastic!!  We were both really delighted with it, and thanks very much for getting it out to us on time for Dave's Birthday on Friday. Cheers

Roisin
    

Richard Finlay (Bride and Groom Films) was the consummate professional and provided an oasis of calm for us on the day. He stayed around longer than we had arranged so he could capture some of the special entertainment we had laid on including the groom jamming with the wedding band. The resulting DVD is beautifully packaged and presented and always brings back happy memories of our magical day. Regards

Chris and Regina McGarel
    

We found Richard to be very professional before our wedding and on our big day.  We were absolutley delighted with our wedding DVD and all our family complemented him on it also.

Eoin & Lisa
    

We could not fault Richard's service in any aspect. His professionalism and courtesy from start to finish were faultless and he responded promptly to all contacts. On the day of the wedding he was unfailingly polite, professional and accommodating while simultaneously managing to be thoroughly unobtrusive.  We are absolutely thrilled with our wedding DVD, which is a precious memento of our special day. As a large lady, I generally try to avoid all photos of myself - let alone moving images! - but I love watching the DVD. We are delighted with all aspects of Richard's service.

Cliona & Ian  
    

Hi Richard, We just finished watching the DVD and we're both delighted, you really did a fantastic job!! It was a last minute decision to get a DVD done and looking back, it would have been something that I would have really regretted had we not done it, especially seeing how well you have made it.  It really sums up the whole day and we'll always have it - I'll be recommending you to anyone I hear of that's getting married! The music is great in it too!   We're absolutely delighted with the way the DVD turned out.   You did a fantastic job and we couldn't recommend you highly enough.  It is wonderful to know that we will always have the memories there for the future.  Thank you so much for a wonderful job!  Thanks for minding our memories for us, I couldn't be happier!

Lareina  
  

Hi Richard,   Got our DVDs last week and we're thrilled with them. Thank you so much.   Kind Regards

Sandra and Chris  
    

Hi Richard,   The wedding video is fantastic.  It was great to refresh memories of our day.  We will be recommending you to all our friends who may be getting married in the future. Thanks again for doing a fantastic job.

Andrew and Aoife
      

Richard, Just a quick note to tell you how pleased we were with our wedding video. You managed to capture the essence of an Irish wedding perfectly, with subtle imagery of the guests expressions throughout the day. The music choice was excellent & was far beyond what we would have chosen ourselves.   Your editing was first rate & was by far one of the best productions we have ever seen.   We would have no hesitation in recommending you to any other couple intending to get married.   Without your help & keen professional eye, memories of our special day would otherwise have been lost.   Thanks again for a wonderful video & a timeless memory. Kind regards,

Dale & Mary Farrell Killeigh, Co. Offaly
      

Dear Richard   Just want to drop you a line to say thank you so much for all your hard work before, during and after our big day.   You managed to capture so many special moments that brought back so many cherished memories.  We were blown away by your high standard of professionalism.  In fact most of the time we didn't realize you were there and you made us and our guests feel so much at ease on the day.   The editing and the sound track were more then we had hoped for, we have watched it over and over and each time it has brought a tear to our eye, we could not have asked for anything more. Thank you for going over and above our expectations.  We are already recommending you to others.  Wishing you all the success you deserve.   Best Wishes

Yvonne & Declan White
      

Hi Richard,   I just wanted to say I got the DVD of our wedding. Sorry for the late reply. Been in the process of moving aswell as putting on a play in Dublin.   I was very impressed with the DVD. I am glad I left the music to you. The music was also very impressive. No Celine Dion, thank God! You captured everything in the video that I had talked about.  All the little moments were there aswell as the big moments.   I will definitely be giving my vote to you for videographer of the year. You have a real talent for capturing all the little details aswell as the big ones.  Thanks again for a wonderful, impressive wedding video.

Julieanne
      

Wow absolutely FANTASTIC.   Thanks so much.  Incredible talent!

Georgina & Rory
    

Hi Richard,The clips are fantastic!!!! Can't believe how well it looks.... we would without doubt recommend u to anyone and thats even without seeing the whole thing yet... it was really fantastic! Can't wait to see the postman arriving! Thanks so much Richard! Talk soon

Tammy and Padraigh
    

I waited to get the reactions from my family members before I wrote my testimonial. Their reaction to the video was equally as impressed as we were! I cannot thank you enough for an amazingly beautiful video! Out of all our wedding expenses... this was the one part that was completely worth it and then some.  The quality is unbelievable and your creative eye captured the feelings of the day rather than just a rolling video camera. Also we love the CD with the church music as well. If you are a Bride and are on the fence about getting this videographer, the answer is: Get Bride and Grooms at your wedding! You will not be sorry!

Dear Richard,   Just wanted to thank you so very much for doing an absolutely brilliant job on our wedding DVD.  We couldnt have asked for better presentation or a better way of capturing those really special moments.  You have done an excellent job in making our day timeless and ever lasting.  Really love the guest messages too!!  Thank you sincerely.

Having watched close friends and relatives getting married in the past few years one of the things that always stood out afterwards was the sub standard quality of their wedding DVD.  With these concerns foremost in our minds, we approached the selection of our videographer with genuine care. Our minds were completely put at rest by the professionalism of Richard Finlay. Throughout our wedding day we barely noticed he was there and it was this unobtrusive style that most impressed us. His clear yet subtle promptings ensured that he got the most out of his filming work and upon receipt of our wedding DVD we were enthralled by the quality of the finished content which he had edited and compiled so perfectly.  Throughout our dealings with Richard we found him to be highly courteous and generally just a nice fellow to do business with. We would have no hesitation in recommending Richard to any prospective bride and groom for their upcoming nuptials. For ease of mind and a top quality professional service there is no need to look any further than Bride and Groom Films. Best wishes

Hi Richard,   The DVD is excellent!!  The sound and picture quality were brilliant throughout...loved the way all the little details were captured when we hardly knew you were there most of the time!   You captured lots of moments that we didnt even notice on the day - thanks a mill   It was a pleasure working with you on the day and we wish you all the best in the future.

We had Richard film our wedding and all I can say is WOW!  He did such an amazing job that in the few days since we recieved our DVD my husband and I have watched it at every opportunity.  We booked Richard back in 2007 and in the interlude between then and the wedding we never once doubted our choice, he was professional and friendly at every turn.  On the day he arrived early and got straight to work taking time only to introduce himself to my family and make aquaintance with our kids, especially our youngest who was quite shy on the day.  By the time we were leaving for the church she was his new best friend and smiled and posed happily for him.  I have to say that is the last time I noticed Richard until much later in the evening when we were getting ready for dancing, such is his discrete manner.   He worked away and was barely noticed even by our guests who remarked at his lovely manner and unobtrusivness. I can not tell you how much that meant to me as I am one of those people who hates to feel "on show" when attending a wedding.  Now that the DVD is here I can honestly say that I am amazed he was not more noticeable on the day as he didn't miss one second of the action.  There is so much of the day that we missed as Bride and Groom getting photos taken and mixing with our guests but our DVD makes it possible to see our day thru the eyes of our guests and really captures the atmosphere of the day.    I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone who wants a friendly professional who will do a great job without being in peoples faces on the day!  Thank you Richard...you did an amazing job and I look forward to wacthing our DVD over and over !

Hi Richard,   Just wanted to send you a quick mail to say thank so much for recording our wedding last Friday in Brooklodge..we just cant wait to see the DVD as we had everything that day, the fun, laughter, the weather & the perfect venue with our friends & family.   We really appreciate you looking after us at such short notice.

Hi Richard, what can I say to thank you so much for everything you did for us on the day. You were an absolute pleasure to deal with- my favourite of all the wedding suppliers. I hardly knew you were there on the day, although you always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. I cannot wait to see the finished dvd. Best regards to you,

Karen

Hi Richard,   On behalf of Sarah & myself I just wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU for everything on Saturday.   I love that most of the guests thought you were simply taking pictures and didn't realise that they may now have hung themselves through word or action...just brilliant!!   Thanks again for everything!  
All the best,

John & Sarah Bourke
