What Couples Are Saying About Us!

Rachel W ★★★★★ We selected Mike Staff Productions for our wedding DJ services, we worked with Alex and he was great! He arrived to our venue timely and worked with our coordinator to stick to the agenda for all the routine wedding motions like first dances, cake cutting, etc. He answered all of our questions, was super friendly to work with, and catered the music to the crowd while also playing the songs we asked. My husband and I agreed that the only thing we would have done differently is provide a more-specific "extended" playlist outside of the "must-plays" and "try-to-plays" we covered during our meeting with Alex. We provided far too many hours of extra music and wished we would have heard or requested some of the songs that we didn't specify on the lists in the questionnaire. We loved the music regardless and Alex did a great job!Response from the ownerThank you so much for your wonderful review and for letting us be a part of your special day! We're thrilled to hear that Alex made your wedding day memorable with his timely presence, coordination, and music selection. It's fantastic to know he was able to blend your must-plays with the vibe of the crowd seamlessly. We appreciate your feedback on the playlist; it's a great tip for us and future couples to consider for an even more tailored music experience. We're glad you loved the music and felt Alex did a great job. Congratulations once again on your marriage, and we wish you both all the happiness in the world!

Thanks a million for choosing Mike Staff Productions. Danielle M. ★★★★★ Incredibly happy with Mike Staff for our wedding DJ! Got married in December, and after a last minute mix up a month before our wedding with the DJ we had booked, my husband and I were scrambling to get find a replacement. We reached out to MS, knowing some of our friends had used their services and were pleased. Randy reached out immediately and we were able to set up a video call the day after we sent an email. He was very accommodating and friendly, and we ended up booking DJ Alex for our reception. He was absolutely fantastic! Excellent job with the intros, making last minute tweaks without an issue, and played music that kept people dancing the whole night. Would recommend him to anyone going with MS! Thank you for helping make our wedding day the best day ever!Response from the ownerIt was an absolute pleasure to work with you, from the first video call with Randy to the last dance at your reception.

Thank you once again for choosing Mike Staff Productions Rachel F. ★★★★★ We hired Mike Staff Productions to videotape our wedding day last fall, and aside from the venue itself, the Mike Staff Productions videographers were by far the best investment we made that day! We selected the option of having two videographers, since my husband and I were going to be getting ready in two separate homes; this way, a videographer was able to cover each household, capturing sentimental moments of my family, closest friends, and me at my family’s home, and my husband with his parents and extended family at his Airbnb. They also recorded footage of us taking photos at our venue (Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester, MI) before the ceremony, which was so great to have; those clips show all of our emotions, interactions with each other and our families, and excitement on that day in a way photos alone can’t capture! Both videographers (Daniel & Jake) were extremely professional, kind, and easy-going, and at both our homes and the venue, they weaved their way seamlessly into our day and captured all of the big and small moments without us even really noticing they were there! During the ceremony, the videographers stationed themselves at different locations so they could film the wedding from various directions. Their final videotapes, both the short film and full film, were outstanding! Their coverage of the day was thorough and beautiful, and the background music they used for the Mini Movie video was perfect! We were especially impressed with the Director of Videography – Jason Chevatewa – he was very responsive with various questions and edit requests during the months following our wedding, and was very patient and accommodating as we provided editing responses while trying to navigate major life events following the wedding such as deployments, new jobs, and pregnancy. He consistently provided beautiful, updated videos for our review. Without any reservation, we absolutely and highly recommend Mike Staff Productions’ videography team to anyone looking for a top-notch videographer for their event! In fact, we plan on hiring them again in a few years for the next wedding in our family!Response from the ownerThank you immensely for sharing your glowing 5-star review of our videography services at your wedding! We are deeply honored to be considered one of the best investments of your special day. It’s wonderful to hear that our decision to have two videographers enabled us to capture all those priceless moments across different locations. We always aim to record not just the events, but the emotions and the essence of the day, and we're thrilled that this came through in the footage from both your family home and your husband’s Airbnb.Our team at Mike Staff Productions strives to blend professionalism with a friendly, easy-going approach, ensuring we capture your day without being intrusive. We're delighted to know that our videographers achieved this, making your experience seamless and enjoyable.The kind words about Jason Chevatewa, our Director of Videography, are particularly heartwarming. His dedication to responsiveness, patience, and delivering a beautifully edited final product is a testament to his passion for videography and client satisfaction.We're overjoyed to learn that the final videotapes, including the short film and full film, met your expectations and that the background music added a special touch to your Mini Movie. Your recommendation is the highest compliment we could receive, and knowing that you plan to use our services again for future family weddings fills us with pride and excitement. Matthew T. ★★★★★ Mike staff productions was easy to work with and did a fantastic job with my wedding. My wife and I hired Chris as a dj and master of ceremonies to help direct the wedding. Chris did an awesome job. He was receptive to song requests, kept the flow of wedding moving throughout the night, played the right music during the right times, engaging with the crowd, and down to earth. Would definitely recommend or hire them again.Response from the ownerThank you so much for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful experience with Mike Staff Productions and Chris at your wedding. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and knowing that we helped make your special day memorable fills us with pride. We greatly appreciate your recommendation and it was an honor working with you! Google U. ★★★★★ An honest review. We selected Mike Staff Productions for our wedding and reception. We selected Mary as our photographer, Sylvester as our videographer, and Matt as our DJ. Simply put, we could not have been happier with all three!First, Mary was outstanding! She was patient, professional and pleasant to work with! We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer for their event! Thank you Mary for capturing all our special moments so wonderfully! You are a true gem!To those that are on the fence as to whether or not to hire a videographer, we say go for it! Trust us when we say it is worth every penny! The video itself brings the realism of wedding and reception back to life with sound and movement. The mini-movie video along with the static camera video adds a completely different perspective to our wedding memories. Sylvester did an outstanding job making you feel comfortable to get all the shots he needed and loosens things up with a few laughs along the way. We highly recommend him if your looking for a videographer! 10 out of 10! Thank you Sylvester for kindness and dedication to our special day. It was truly appreciated!Finally, Matt our DJ also did a fantastic job! He was truly patient and professional throughout the process. He took meticulous notes and kept the party going all night long!

He was the best DJ we could’ve asked for and I highly recommend him! He listened to us and went above and beyond to ensure our night was perfect. There wasn’t a moment our guests weren’t on the dance floor having fun! James had amazing energy and made sure everything ran smoothly. Our food was running behind but he made the most of the time that the guests got to dance and we are grateful for that. We truly couldn’t have chosen a better DJ to make our wedding fun! Thank you James for everything!Response from the ownerMIC DROP for DJ James! Thank you so much, Danielle. This review means so much to us and we passed your kind words on to James. He is truly a talented musician and DJ and we're thrilled he made your reception so memorable. Dinner delays? NO PROBLEM. Start the party sooner. It was an honor to be a part of your wedding. Claire B. ★★★★★ Randy with Mike Staff Productions was so incredible for our wedding! He has so much experience and was more than happy to roll with the punches for our very non-traditional wedding. He called the week of and talked to us for over a half hour, being open to any questions we had and just gave us the opportunity to get to know him. He's so knowledgeable about music and was the perfect fit for us. Mike Staff Productions also made the entire process of hiring a DJ SO EASY. We got to video interviews of all the different DJs beforehand so we could pick the one that was right for us, and then the online portal made making payments super straightforward. 1000000/10 would recommend!

We hired them for our Photography, Videography and DJ services.We cannot begin to express how amazing everything turned out with Mike Staff. Our photographer was so personable throughout the entire process. Our phone call before the wedding was so helpful to talk through every aspect of our big day. At our wedding from beginning to end, our photographers exceeded our expectations. They were so easy going and professional. Every photo that was captured was from the heart, it was so nice to see my photography visions for my wedding day come to life. Our photographer Jenny made it so much fun and relaxing while taking the photos. Everything went flawlessly. Even when we were behind schedule, the photographers were reassuring that every photo would be captured. Both photographers went with the flow and respected our thoughts and wishes and communicated everything directly to us first. In addition to our thoughts and wishes, they communicated well with our families, wedding planners and vendor staff. I would highly recommend hiring Mike Staff as your photographer for anyone’s wedding.Music was one of my top most important aspects of our wedding. I could not say enough of our DJ. DJ Josh. We were sent a form to fill out a month away from the wedding and it was very resourceful. I filled it out to the best of my ability, and went over it with my husband before submitting it to the portal. Our phone call with our DJ was so helpful and he really put our minds at ease with the playlist that we put together. He was very professional while talking through every aspect of the reception. I could really picture it in my mind. He sent us a link to our special dance music so we could listen to it and approve it before he finalized everything. Hearing the music put together felt so personable and it made me even more excited for our big day. I was very thankful to be able to have some guidance with choosing certain songs while also being able to choose songs we wanted. From the beginning of the reception to the end, the DJ took over and every aspect was perfect. Words cannot express how happy I was with the music. DJ Josh made sure we were happy throughout the entire reception. He also made sure that the timeline flowed together and that every song we wanted was played.

From initial planning to the big day, they were always quick to respond to questions and made our lives easy. After our scheduled DJ had to cancel for an unexpected emergency, Mike Staff immediately set us up with DJ Joe, who was a perfect fit for our wedding! Would highly recommend DJ Joe to others: he understands how to keep people on the dance floor, is accommodating to requests, and made some great jokes that had everyone laughing.

Detroit Wedding Videography | What to Look for When Hiring

Reputation

Has the wedding video company been in business for at least 5 years and have other wedding professionals heard of them? We hear a lot of horror stories about videographers going out of business without returning deposits, taking 6 months or longer to deliver completed videos

Quality

Is the finished product emotionally charged, interesting and fun to watch? Is the picture quality what you are used to watching on TV or does the camera shake often and seem grainy? How is the audio? Never settle for anything less than film-like quality. 

Professionalism

Are the videographers dressed appropriately? Do they belong to any professional organizations? Do they maintain an office location with a full time staff? Do they return phone calls promptly? Are they easy to get along with and give you a sense that you are their #1 priority? Mike Staff Productions’ mission is to provide the “absolute best customer service that you have ever had, anywhere, and at any time in your entire life”. 

Price

Most importantly, can you fit them in your budget? Are you pleasantly surprised by the price compared to similar quality work? Do their packages include a lot of value or do they try to “nickel and dime” you? Keep in mind, lowest cost usually means lower quality, while highest cost does not always mean highest quality.

Wedding Videography FAQ's

Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime event, but your wedding video allows that day to live on forever. While some memories are bound to fade over the years, having every moment on film is a truly priceless benefit of hiring a Detroit wedding videographer. Getting to see and hear your spouse recite their vows, again and again, is irreplaceable. A videographer can capture that exact moment in time, in a way that photographs would never be able to capture. The same can be said of the toasts at the reception.

The length of your wedding video depends on how many hours your Michigan wedding videographer documents your day. You will receive both an edited wedding film AND an 8 to 10-minute highlight video with our 8-hour wedding videography package.  Overall, your full length, edited wedding film will be an average of 1-2 hours depending on your package. 

According to WeddingWire.com, the average cost for wedding videography in Metro Detroit is $2400.  Our Detroit Wedding Videography prices start at $2,499. But you’ll find that capturing your wedding day on video is priceless.

In a recent survey, 93% of newlyweds who did NOT hire a professional wedding videographer regretted it, often as soon as the day after their wedding.. Additionally, newlyweds that used both a photographer AND videographer agreed that video does a much better job of capturing the emotions of the day, recording the history of the day, and creating a visual memory that future generations will enjoy more.

Every wedding is a little different and your wedding video should not look like anyone else’s. However, these are the common wedding videography shots that are often included in completed wedding films:
