testimonials

they will go above & beyond

"Our wedding film captured the beauty of Maui just like we wanted. The quality of the drone shots and camera footage were so unreal. Katie and Zach were so much fun to work with and they had such good vibes on our special day... our bridal party loved them. We would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to do a destination wedding as they will go above and beyond to make it so scenic, beautiful, and capture every detail so you will always feel like you are reliving those special moments again!"

Testimonials

"Our film was, simply put, amazing. it possesses all of the energy that I felt on our wedding day. My husband and I are so excited to watch this on all of our anniversaries to come (though I must admit that I've watched it on a random Tuesday since we received it more than a normal amount). The second I watched it, I was already thinking about other special moments that Katie and Zach could capture for us in the future. This video will forever be one of our most special keepsakes."

Testimonials

10/10 would recommend

"Katie and Zach are the most talented individuals!! And, not only that, they are wonderful people! They brought such joy the whole wedding weekend. They were encouraging and just a blast to be around. The pictures and video were more than I could have ever asked for. I would 10/10 recommend everyone to hire Katie and Zach. I have goosebumps just thinking about our video, and now need to go watch it AGAIN haha. Katie and Zach, we love you guys and think the world of you both! Thank you for capturing our dream wedding day."

Testimonials

Thank you does not suffice

"You can literally FEEL the love and joy radiating through each clip of our video - and I'm not the only one who feels that way. I've shared with many friends / family who weren't able to join and they all have said that it makes them feel a little bit like they were there, experiencing our wedding day with us. THANK YOU does not, and will not ever, suffice for your beautiful work!"

Testimonials

Even now, we still cry

"Where do I even begin!? When my husband and I first watched our wedding video, we cried the entire time. Even now (after watching it over and over), we still cry. Katie and Zach did an incredible job at capturing all of the love shared by us, as well as all of our family and friends. They captured the beauty of Kauai in such a breathtaking way! The video captured every moment I could have possibly asked for!"

Testimonials

So obsessed with our video

"Our experience of working with Water & Whimsy was truly amazing. Katie was so helpful, I'd like to say she was our second wedding planner!! She was there to help, give ideas, and just listen... all the things we needed in such a stressful time. We are SO OBSESSED with our video. We haven't once pressed play and been able to hide a tear. We will forever continue to recommend them to every friend of ours - we would be doing a disservice if we didn't.

Testimonials

Katie & Zach did not disappoint

"We always knew we wanted our special day to be something we could look back on and show our own children someday. What we really enjoyed about our film is how raw and intimate it demonstrated the day. I sometimes feel like wedding videos can come across cheesy or poorly edited, but Katie and Zach did not disappoint. We loved that although we only had 40 people to help us celebrate, we were still able to show our loved ones that couldn’t be there. Our overall experience with Katie and Zach was a 100/10 as videographers and from now on we will always recommend them first to others."
