Hire Trabbland!
My husband and I both have a hard time spending money on ourselves, especially when the expense is for something unnecessary or without practical use. Despite this, we’ve experienced no regret about paying for videography for our wedding celebration. We could not feel gladder about it, and that’s because we hired Trabbland. My cousin got married a few years ago, and Trabbland provided her videography. She shared their teaser trailer, and I have watched it an outrageous number of times over the years. When the time came to plan for my own wedding, it wasn’t so much that I wanted a videographer as it was that I wanted that videographer. If Trabbland hadn’t been available, I think we would have decided to go without videography. When we learned that our date was open, we didn’t consider a single alternative. That runs counter to typical planning advice and common sense, but we had no misgivings. There was no cause for doubt, and now that we’re looking back on the experience, we know that our confidence was warranted. Chris was highly responsive and enjoyable to communicate with from our very first contact, and that hasn’t changed at all in these past four years. We had an extra 2.75 years unexpectedly wedged into our countdown due to a certain pandemic (we postponed twice). In all that time, Chris has been remarkably consistent, flexible, and supportive. It is clear that he is not just a skilled and dependable professional running an efficient business; he is also a caring and thoughtful person. My communication with Chris was so positive leading up to it that one of the highlights of my wedding day was that I finally got to “meet” and interact with him in person. Unsurprisingly, I felt comfortable and content with his presence throughout the day. He’s so pleasant and helpful (with lots of valuable input and suggestions across a variety of wedding-related and other subjects), and I adore his sense of humor. I genuinely liked having Chris and his team around, and I felt sad saying goodbye at the end of the night. There is a good chance you will interact with your vendors more than many or maybe any of your guests on your wedding day, so it’s fortunate when you encounter a vendor you would happily invite to your party even if they weren’t performing a service. That’s Chris to me. However, I’m also glad that he was performing a service, because he is so good at what he does! We are immeasurably satisfied with our finished products. We are so impressed by and appreciative of the close attention to detail. The most precious elements and sentiments of the day that flew by in a flash after years of anticipation are preserved in our videos, and they will allow us to revisit those memories and evoke the feelings associated with them for the rest of our lives. The draft versions Chris first offered for each video were already so close to perfect that there was barely any need for alteration, though it was really nice to have the option to request adjustments, and Chris was able and willing to make each of the tweaks we did request. We also value having an archive of all of the footage Chris and his team shot and that aren’t limited to the highlights that made it into the videos. Chris creates art to treasure, his professional conduct is optimal, and my entire experience of and with him has been delightful. Hiring Trabbland was every bit worth it, and it feels as though we did ourselves a huge favor by making that decision.
