We had the pleasure of working alongside Original Weddings for Dominic & Erika Joy’s wedding, and it was such a wonderful experience! Esther and her team were incredibly professional, kind, and easy to collaborate with throughout the day. As a hair and makeup team, we always appreciate working with photographers who understand the importance of timing, communication, and capturing every detail beautifully. Original Weddings made the entire process feel seamless, and their team created a comfortable environment for the couple and vendors. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and ability to capture genuine moments truly stood out. It was a joy being part of such a special day with them, and we would absolutely love the opportunity to work together again!

Working with Original Wedding was an absolute dream and truly added so much to our big day! We had two photographers, and both were incredibly helpful, attentive, and kind. They made the entire experience so fun and easy. We didn’t come in with a long list of specific shots, and they ran with that creative freedom beautifully. They captured so many amazing moments we wouldn’t have even thought to ask for. Taking photos felt like a natural, enjoyable part of the day rather than something we had to squeeze in. They also handled family portraits quickly and efficiently, which gave us more time to relax and enjoy some fun, candid shots. On top of everything, we received our photos earlier than expected and they are absolutely gorgeous! We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, organized, and genuinely fun photography team!!

Thank you so much, Dana, for this wonderful review. We’re thrilled to hear our photographers made the day fun and relaxed and that their creativity captured moments you hadn’t expected. I’m glad the family portraits were efficient and that you received your beautiful photos earlier than expected. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are honored to have been part of your wedding day.

I 100% recommend using “Original Weddings” located in Texas. For 6 hours we payed well under $2,000 for light and airy style with others to choose from. Our photographer was so nice and friendly and helped us make our day comfortable. She was more than a photographer. We opted for our editing to take 4-12+ weeks and at the 4 week mark we got our photos. Over 500 breathtaking photos were sent to us in our easy to use client portal. We can also send a guest link to our family members so they can download or print the photos they are in. Everyone was so helpful and the customer service from everyone we were in contact with was very impressive! Highly recommending to our friends as well.

We had an AMAZING experience with Original Weddings. Every question was answered in a timely manner and everything was beautiful. We did engagement photos along with our package for photography only. It was the most affordable of any photographers we priced out and the quality is A1! We have had so many compliments on our photos and couldn't be happier with our choice of Original Weddings. Every photographer with them is amazing and so nice! I recommend them to everyone! We were able to also get our pictures in 2 weeks, pick an extra style, and get them in black&white.

Our team (lead photographer, assistant photographer, and videographer) were out of this world! They were all professional, kind, and easy to work with. I had concerns of being awkward in front of the camera but they were great at walking us through every pose and detail and the pictures came out PERFECT. Our photographers captured the most incredible pictures that I get to cherish for the rest of our lives. Our highlight video also brought tears to my eyes when we watched it. Our videographer captured all of the emotions from our wedding that we get to relive when we watch it. We received so many complements on our pictures and videos! I would recommend them over and over again and I’m so great full we went with this company!!

It was an absolute pleasure and a truly exceptional experience collaborating with Original Weddings. From our initial interactions, their team consistently demonstrated an unparalleled level of professionalism, proactive communication, and genuine care for everyone involved in the event. Their meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to excellence truly set them apart. Despite having no prior opportunity to meet in person, the Original Weddings team effortlessly created a remarkably warm and inclusive atmosphere on the day of the event. They made us feel instantly comfortable and valued, as if we were part of their extended family. The continuous and responsive communication maintained throughout the entire day was instrumental in ensuring a flawlessly smooth execution. This constant coordination proved invaluable, not only for our operations but, most importantly, for guaranteeing a stress-free and joyous experience for the couple we were all working to celebrate. We cannot speak highly enough of Original Weddings. Their dedication and outstanding service compel us to offer our most enthusiastic and unreserved recommendation. They are truly exceptional, and we would confidently rate their services a perfect ten out of ten. -DJ MAX (HD)
