The Midnight Project Wedding Films — Local services in Town of Smithtown

My husband and I got introduced to Matt, as he had done many weddings of our family, and friends and they were incredible. We finally met him during the first meeting and he asked everything there is to know about us, how we met, family, ect. We loved his energy and the way he explained the process. We had to postpone our wedding a year due to covid, and thank God he was able to do our date! Fast forward of constant communication, I was on the phone with him weeks before the day, and told him a few surprises I was going to do. First I told him I wanted to honor my fathers memory by singing to my mother during our father and daughter dance. He was so excited to hear that. I also told him about the audio guest book (Fete phone) and he wanted the audio ASAP as he already had an idea on how to use it. The excitement he had got me more excited! The day had come, Matt was beyond patience, calming, even helped me with my dress. He was like my best man lol during the entire event, we rarely noticed getting filmed, even our guests said the same. He was behind the scenes taking the most incredible shots! He had left us a voicemail on the audio guest book, so sweet! Now let me talk about the video process because the timing…. Omg! We got married 11/26/2021 We received the first teaser on 12/18/21 absolutely amazing, perfect Christmas gift to us! We literally cried! It looked like a movie! The music, the color, the clips EVERYTHING was perfect! Then we received our highlight on 12/29/21 just before the new year and on this one he incorporated the audio guest book! With our voicemail greeting at the beginning, then the entire highlight of our wedding, then you hear my husbands grandma and my mother at the end while I’m walking towards him during our first look. That made me cry. It was so precious and perfect! Now you must be thinking wow he’s fast! Oh let me tell you fast and efficient doesn’t even begin to describe it! We just received our full wedding video 1/2/2022!!!! Wow just wow!!! Matt you are seriously INCREDIBLE! You’re professional, you have a gift and your viewers can clearly see the love you put into your work through the lenses. You’re such a blessing, you’re not only our videographer, you’re now family!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST! Mateo Vale Productions has shot over 5 of my family’s and friend’s wedding videos and all of the wedding videos have been beyond incredible!! When we got engaged, Matt was the first person we called prior to securing our date because we knew we HAD to have him. Matt went above and beyond throughout the whole process, guiding us through everything. Matt checked in with us multiple times during the months leading up to the wedding to make sure every detail of the day was covered. He provided us with advice, tips, and guidance that was so appreciated and needed, he went above and beyond his role as a videographer. The day of the wedding, while filming and capturing the most beautiful footage, Matt also checked on us, the bridal party, and family to see how we were doing and if we needed anything. He truly became a friend to all of us.

Matt is extremely professional, organized, detailed oriented, and talented!! He truly gets to know each of his couples and genuinely cares about the vision of each couple and what is important to them on their wedding day. He is always thinking one step ahead- we got married in November and he had hand warmers and an insulated blanket ready for us to use in between shots. His passion, vision, and dedication truly shine through on all his videos. His work is unlike any other videographers that I’ve seen. Our trailer, journey film and raw footage are absolutely beautiful, it truly blew us away!! We cannot stop watching it all!! Our family and friends have all been in awe of Matt’s talent and the genuine emotions and moments his videos capture. Matt and his team truly captured our wedding day and love in the most perfect and special way and we will be cherishing our journey film and footage for years to come. We are forever grateful for Matt and feel blessed to have had him a part of one of the most important days of our lives. Thanks to Matt we can continue to relive our wedding day while feeling all the emotions we felt that day. You MUST book with Matt, we can’t recommend him enough!! It will be your best wedding planning decision, it...

Matt is what I consider a "no-brainer" vendor! The second I got engaged he was one of my first phone calls I made because I knew he was best in the business! What makes Matt such an amazing videographer and wedding vendor is that his takes each wedding like its the only one on his mind. He considers every detail alongside the bride and groom, keeps your vision the center of his vision, and works in a timely manner. Matt checked in with me (bride of summer 2019) multiple times prior to the wedding to make sure we were on the same page in regards to timing of the day, things I wanted captured, concerns I had, and tips he recommended. His craft and understanding about weddings put me at ease. By the day of my wedding, I had no worries in the world because I knew he knew my game plan and would make all my hopes, wishes, and dreams for the day come true.

On the day of my wedding, he not only kept me-the bride calm, but he helped the bridal party stay on time while still enjoying the day, but most importantly he kept my worrisome mom at ease. Matt checked in on all of us to see how we were doing, what we needed, how we were on time, and more. ALL while filming and capturing the most special moments of my life via film!

On the day of my wedding Matt created a quick clip of the morning to share with myself and my groom at the reception. It was so special to see this and share with family as we celebrated the day.

You are probably thinking-this girl is related to Matt. I AM NOT! But Matt has filmed over 6 weddings I have attended, including my own siblings. HE is a NO BRAINER! Once you meet Matt and see his work, you will also agree that there is no need to search more..MATT Is your guy and the videographer who will not only be there to capture the special moments of your day, but he will be there on your day to be the wedding planner you didn't know you needed!

Matt----thank you for all you have done beyond your job title! I appreciate you more than you know! I can''t wait to relive the most special day of my life with my wedding video! The suspense...
