Bonsai Creative

Bonsai Creative We're a husband-wife team of wedding cinematographers based in Waterloo, Ontario. Weddings are emotional days. Possibly the most emotional day you'll have.

We love not only capturing all the little details you've put so much time into planning, but also the emotions and memories of your day that you will cherish forever. Laughter, tears, butterflies, and so much love fill your time. In the hustle and bustle of such an incredible time, we forget so many details. This is why we do what we do. Not only do we aim to capture the details and moments of your day through video, but also all the feels that make your day so memorable.

So very thankful.

As you dive into wedding planning, it’s easy to get swept up in the endless inspiration flooding your feed. Before you know it, you might find yourself making decisions based on what you’re told a wedding “should” look like instead of what truly resonates with you and your partner.

If there’s one piece of advice we can share to help you plan a truly authentic wedding, it’s this... Throughout your planning, ask yourself, “Does this feel like us?”

Here’s the truth... there are no rules. No right or wrong choices. No traditions you have to follow. The most meaningful weddings are the ones that reflect you, your personalities, your love story, your values.

So as you choose everything from your vows to your venue, your guest list to your colour palette, take a moment to pause and ask:
💛 Does this bring us joy?
💛 Does this feel like us?

If the answer is yes, go for it. If not, give yourself permission to let it go.

Your wedding is about celebrating your love, in a way that feels right for you. And that’s what will make it truly unforgettable. ✨

What I love about weddings…

I’m going to be real for a second, and I’m often hesitant to share this opinion because I know my industry, and it feels a little hypocritical.

I hate how consumeristic weddings are. Yes, I heard myself… that’s quite a thing to say for someone who charges five grand for their wedding films. The thing is, I love weddings for the rich commitment they celebrate. I love weddings because they bring together families and friends. I love weddings for hosting loved ones and showing your personality through your unique event. I love weddings for the party, the fun, the dancing. I love weddings for the words shared. I love weddings for being the milestone in relationships you can look back on and celebrate the years as they pass.

But man, the things we “need” to do for a wedding to be a “good wedding” - I hate that crap. If you hire us or spend time around me when planning your wedding, you’ll hear me say, “If you don’t want to do it- then don’t!”

But also, sometimes, even if you want to do the thing, I’ll ask, “Is it wise?” “Is it going to matter in fifty years?” “Are you even going to like that trend next year?”

I don’t believe in going into debt over a wedding or buying or doing things to impress people who may not even be a part of your inner circle. Plan a day that suits you and your partner! You’re the two planning this life together and setting the precedent for your marriage ahead.

So I guess that went from why we love weddings to what we hate about them? Chime in: what do you love and hate about weddings? No shame on people who do things differently - that’s the beauty of individuality - you pick what works for you!!
