I will let you guys know the quality of the video etc. once we watch it. For what it's worth I am expecting nothing but the best!

 

How'd you like your video???

Is the video a slideshow of pictures or truly a video where he captures movement and people speaking? I'm looking for a true video with more than just a slideshow of pictures, but can't get him to email me back with more information past the pricing. Thanks for any input.

I also read the negatives and positives from each person on here. Can any of you tell me overall is he worth it and the wait that comes with it or not? Besides him I don't know of any other videographers in Jamaica.

It is definitely more than a slideshow of images. It's an actual movie, artfully edited and complete with a "highlights" section. In my video, the opening shots are set to music and then you get to hear us speaking in the room as I was getting ready. We got all of the audio/video of: walking down the aisle, the entire ceremony, footage of the cocktail hour and of us taking pictures on the beach with the photographer, the toasts (maid of honor, my dad and my husband's mom and brother), the cake cutting, all of the important dances, and then when the real partying started. The highlights include some of the same and some different footage than the main video and they are set to a different song. If you book RG Weddings, you will get an email from Roxroy asking you to provide him with some of your favorite songs and he'll use those to make the video.

 

I was originally skeptical because of the wait, but am absolutely happy with the result. My family has now seen both the Jamaica video and the one from our reception on Long Island and everyone agrees that Roxroy did a better job that the NY based videographer.

 

Hope this helps!

For all of you waiting for your videos from RG Weddings/Roxroy, I did want to let you know that I received a very sincere email from Roxroy yesterday apologizing for the delay in getting the video to me. After I received the video, I told him how much I liked it and thanked him for the time, energy and effort he put into it. In his email yesterday, he thanked ME for thanking him despite the long wait and said that it was never his intention to cause me or my family any anxiety over the delay. He explained that this past wedding season was one of his busiest and that that doesn't happen often for him, and, also, that he felt badly turning away brides who were desperately seeking a videographer. I think we can all relate to that and believe that we all would certainly prefer a long wait for a video to having no video at all. Roxroy said, and I believe this to be the case after seeing how he interacted with my family and friends at the wedding, how he stayed longer at no extra charge, and how he was polite with me when I was an anxious bride getting ready, that for him its not only about making a living, but about making brides, grooms and their families happy after one of the happiest days of their lives.

 

I felt obligated to let everyone know about Roxroy's email because I'm afraid I was a little harsh in some of my earlier posts . The product is fantastic and I encourage you all to give him a chance and (try to) be patient.

Their prices are up there but I am willing to pay for premium work.

I am new and videography is my main concern. Has anyone seen RGs work? I have a toss up between him and Elite Media Concepts. Its weird that no one else is talking about EMC. They seem to be the best. They make movies.

I need feedback from anyone who used them before. They are pricy really want to know what their service like.

 I need a videographer for my wedding and I am thinking of using RG which has competitive prices but I recently learned about Elite Media Concepts and they seem to have much nicer videos HD.

 

LaraJo I know its a lot to ask but do you have a link you can share with your wedding highlight so I can get and idea of the quality of the video.

I too have been searching and was about to give up hope but recently found Elite Media Concepts too. www.elitemconcepts.com

 

They have some AAWWWEESSOOME videos. They are like movies. I might take a chance with them but really was hoping to get a review.
