Ryan & I are just overwhelmed with how hard the team worked and how many details we know you captured and I really wanted you to know that. It was such a pleasure to work with your company, and you relieved so much stress from our day with the way you took control and worked behind the scenes. From the moment I met you and booked Fairytale Productions for our big day, I had no worries that you would be excellent. But on the wedding day you out did yourselves. Ryan had nothing but good to say about you before the wedding, and I felt the same about you as I prepared to go to the church. You captured the moments without changing how the day naturally progressed. You were very punctual and never kept us waiting. The team was incredibly professional, a pleasure to be around, and so responsive to our requests. You made us feel special on our wedding day and at ease by your actions that the day was ours and you were there to capture our memories. We can’t wait to show people our video and refer them to you.
Thank you!!Amy (& Ryan)- Amy & Ryan
Fairytale Productions was very attentive to our needs during the planning process and made suggestions to make our event a success. The crew arrived early, got everything set up and interacted with our guests encouraging them to participate in the photo booth which helped those that were a little shy about having their photo taken. Fairytale Productions was the most cost effective of the services I contacted and I would not hesitate to contract them again.- Promedica Toledo Hospital
Derek did a wonderful job with the music for our reception on 11.11.11. I would definitely recommend him and I loved that you could pick out all of your music on the website this way the DJ knows and has exactly what you wanted. It was great!! Thanks!!!

My wife and I live in San Diego and were worried about planning our wedding in Detroit, MI given we lived so far away however when it came to the videography and DJ services Derek Gauci and the Fairytale Productions Crew were top notch.
Their service was flawless and above all made our day stress free. They sent us tons of exmaples and laid out ideas on how the videography would be planned and incorporated all our special requested songs. They were a tremendous help to my wife and I. We would recommend that every engaged couple, whether in the Detroit metro area or anyone planning a destination wedding in Detroit, book their services!!!

Derek Gauci and the fairytale productions crew were perfectly amazing. The arrived on time, they were professional, they had ideas and told me where to be and when. The videographers tailed us the whole day to make sure that every moment got included into our wedding video. The D.J kept to our list of chosen songs, and kept the guests on the dance floor the entire evening. I would recommend that every engaged couple in the metro Detroit area check out this outstanding wedding production team.

Tom and his crew are the absolute best people to work with. His knowledge pertaining to film, photography, cameras, lighting, weddings and overall politeness surpassed anyone I had considered hiring for my wedding. Tom and his crew were on-time, professional, creative, friendly and just a blast to work with. They were even the first to arrive the morning of my wedding and started to set everything up; like my dress, jewelry, shoes, and little details. His responsiveness to my calls, emails and questions made me feel like I was the only wedding he was working on. From his creativity, to his wonderful attitude you can tell he truly loves his job. Our Same-Day-Edit, left people laughing, crying, and smiling and the quality of the film is amazing. CRYSTAL CLEAR! It’s like watching a movie! Anyone who has seen my Same-Day-Edit are in such awe at how wonderful it is that it’s hard not to feel a bit famous. We are all so excited for the rest of the wedding footage to be finished.
Tom is an artist at what he does and his honesty and attitude made hiring him one of the easiest choices I made for my wedding. He and his crew are so much fun, and even at the most stressful times of the wedding day, they were there to help, and make me laugh. I’d hire him 100x’s over. The quality of his work is unparalleled and his work ethics are inspiring.
Thank you to Tom and his entire crew for everything that you did to make my wedding day feel like a dream come true!

My experience with Fairytale Productions was wonderful! They were very flexible, accommodating, friendly and considerate of our needs. The quality of our video is terrific! It looks like a movie instead of your typical “home movie” wedding video. The music that we selected for our video is timed beautifully with the events that are going on in each scene. There is an artistic quality about it and the creativity for the entire video is obvious. Also, the pricing is very reasonable for what we wanted. I scoured the internet searching for a videographer that provided the quality I wanted and fell within our price range and Fairytale Productions was the only one that met my standards. They traveled to from Monroe to Charlevoix to film our wedding. I would highly recommended Fairytale Productions for your wedding.

I was very pleased with my video service after researching many vendors. I wanted everything to be perfect! What really stood out to me about Fairytale is Tom’s willingness to listen to my needs and wants and to meet them…his entire team worked very hard to provide me with the experience I was looking for! I LOVED my video and the fact that it was using cinematography, which made my video look like a high quality wide screen movie where all of the shots were unique. Even the dance scene, it was not still but rather rotated around us as we danced to provide a very interesting scene! We LOVE our video, all of the versions…the trailer, 20 minute, and full video…I will treasure it forever and EVERY single person I have shared it with has said “wow”…..followed by “how much?” and when I tell them the price, they are in disbelief once more for the value! A+ to Fairytale….loved it!!!

I was on the fence about whether or not I wanted to spend the money on a videographer for our June wedding. I decided pretty last minute that I wanted to at least look into my options so I searched on-line and found a few videographers that were in the Toledo area and Tom at Fairytale Productions was the first to get back with me. Luckily for us, Tom and his crew were available for our June 18th wedding and he quickly got me the information and contract so we could secure the date. Tom was great at making sure he had all the information he needed for the day of our event and it was such a blessing to have him and his crew there to capture our special day. Between our photographer and videographers we felt like movie stars!! Tom took the time to make sure all our special moments were captured and both he and his crew were beyond words amazing, talented and professional; plus they had great creative ideas and really got our guests involved in the video. I can be a pretty hard person to please and I have NO complaints and nothing but praise for the work done by Fairytale Productions. The quality of their work is well worth the money and I would highly recommend them to anyone!!

A videographer wasn’t on our initial list of “needs” for our wedding, but looking back, Matt and I both agree it was our best investment! You were so creative and got our families involved for our highlight video, which was one of the best wedding gifts we received. I laughed and cried more throughout the video than I did at my actual wedding. As a bride, I spent so much time planning how everything would go on my wedding day, but I was the last one in the church and the first one out. Until I watched the video, I had no idea how Matt and the best man entered the ceremony, how my flower girl handed out her flowers, or what my Dad’s face looked like as he walked me down the aisle. Without the video, I wouldn’t have been able to see any of these things. When Matt and I put the DVD in for the first time, all of the emotions that I felt that day came back in an instant. The video is flawless, and I could not be more impressed. I’ve had multiple people tell me that the highlight video gave them chills because it was so personal and touching. You can’t re-do your wedding day, you have one chance to capture all the memories you can, and you did an amazing job of doing that for us!

Tom, the owner of fairytale productions truly came through with a wonderful wedding video. My wife and I love the way he put together the best night of our lives. He was a true professional and a very caring man, who promptly answered all of our concerns. I highly recommend him and his company.
