John was extremely attentive to me and my husband. He wanted to make sure everything was perfect for our video. He contacted us several times prior to our wedding to get all the details and hear what we wanted. It definitely helped that he has an easy going personality and is a bit of a comedian. We enjoyed talking and working with John. Our video was absolutely beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. I was able to relive my wedding day. He captured so many details that I missed. As a bride, you are rushed around and miss a lot of what's going on around you. John made sure to include everything in our video. If you are thinking about writing letters to each prior to the ceremony, ask John for different ideas. My husband is private and did not want me to read the letter he had wrote me out loud. John had an amazing idea to record our voices for the video, so as I read the letter silently you could hear my husband's voice reading it. That was a great idea and really put a sentimental touch in our video. I would highly recommend Happy Tears Videographery to everyone I possibly can. John was like a fly on the wall. You never even knew he was there the whole night. Even my guests said they never realized he was video taping. Everyone feels comfortable with him around and continues to act themselves. John did a great job! I cannot express that enough.

I came across Happy Tears at a Bridal Show early-on in our planning process. From the first meeting, John and his crew were so easy to talk to, helpful, approachable, and talented! Before booking, I checked out some of his work and was so pleased to see that Happy Tears covered a wedding that I had attended! Once we decided to move forward with Happy Tears, many phone conversations with John were exchanged where he got to know us as a couple and our unique style. We felt comfortable telling him what we liked and what we didn’t. On the day of our wedding, our videographer, Chris, was wonderful. He was on-time, professional, approachable, and amazing at his job! Our wedding teaser video was ready TWO DAYS LATER and it was AMAZING! Shortly after, our official wedding video was finished and I could not be more happy with it. There is nothing like re-living the best day of your life over and over again. John was personable in his interactions with us and so supportive of our commitment. I could not be more pleased with Happy Tears and our wedding video. Do yourself a favor and choose Happy Tears!

Going into planning a wedding, I always said I wouldn’t get a video. One, because they are expensive, and two, I never wanted to sit down and watch it. After I found Happy Tears, during a bridal show, I decided that I NEEDED a wedding video. They were personable, happy, and fun! I actually won a 50% off deal while attending a bridal show- they attend a lot of bridal shows. While working with this company they were easy, had great communication, and really cared what I wanted. They worked with me through thick and thin, during a pandemic wedding. John went out of his way to make sure my head was still attached, while in the midst of the coronavirus. He didn’t have to, but he cared that much about his client. When creating my video, he made sure I loved it and included everything I wanted. I will recommend Happy Tears every time someone asks about cinematography.

I can’t express enough how happy I was with Happy Tears Productions. John Rink ( owner) is a true professional and passionate about his craft. John has excellent communication skills and walks you through the various stages of the video planning for your wedding. He is always available to answer any questions and has the biggest heart. For me, my wedding video was one of the most important aspects of wedding planning because your wedding video will allow you and your family & friends to see all aspects of your wedding day. These are memories that are PRICELESS. John & his team are so professional. We had Jacquline & Joe who were able to capture all the wedding day moments in a very indiscreet way. The drone footage of the Cape May beachfront was just breathtaking! ! I can’t say enough wonderful things about John & his team. This is absolutely a vendor that you can depend on.

What a wonderful experience John creates from start to finish! From his initial intake phone call, he shows that he truly cares about his clients and wants to get to know them. Due to COVID-19, we had to downsize all aspects of our wedding and John was very understanding and supportive along the way. He demonstrated his flexibility and professionalism throughout the difficult decisions we had to make and relay to him. Leading up to our micro-wedding, John arranged a phone call to confirm details which helped put our minds at ease. He was funny, easy going but thorough in his approach with us. On the day of our wedding, he arrived early and immediately got to work shooting everything he could. The final product- our wedding video- turned out to be the most beautiful thing we’ve ever seen! He listened to all our requests and then some... We were truly impressed. Since then, we’ve gotten numerous compliments from people who we have shared this video with too. We will cherish the video of our micro-wedding forever and are looking forward to working with John again next summer and seeing how that video turns out! Overall, we highly recommend John at Happy Tears Productions for your wedding videography needs!!!

I would highly recommend happy tears to anyone having a wedding ! John is fantastic!! He really took the time to get to know us right from the start. He was always fast to respond to any questions I had , all this on top of giving us a great deal! Unfortunately COVID killed my wedding dreams & John gave me a full refund ! When we do have the ceremony of our dreams we absolutely will be hiring Happy Tears for all our videography needs !

We were very happy with Happy Tears as our Videographer for our wedding. Our wedding was scheduled for June 2020 and we had to postpone it because of COVID. We told John we were rescheduling for the following year but still doing a small wedding on our original date. He immediately told us that he wanted to do something for his couples who had to postpone their weddings due to the pandemic and he offered to come to our intimate wedding free of charge. We were so thankful and excited that he offered this to us. The video he made was amazing! I cannot wait to see when the two videos are merged next year after our wedding. John is so kind and thoughtful and does amazing work! I would highly recommend Happy Tears to anyone who is looking for a Videographer for their wedding. He also gives discounts to teachers which was a plus with my husband and I both being teachers.

When I sat to write this, I wanted to really describe my encounters with Happy Tears in a way that would really get the point across of how they treated with us. The more I thought on this the more I realized in order to really understand, you must experience. There is no other way to say it. We started looking for someone to video our wedding in late February 2020. When we first talked to Happy Tears, we did not just get a professional, we also made a new friend. My wife and I had been dating twenty years……… (Yes, twenty years) when I FINALLY decided to propose it was worth the wait. We have been planning this wedding for long time and had a great idea of what we wanted to look for. Enter John Rink, the creator of Happy Tears. From the first phone call we had with him, even though it was for business, it did not feel like business. John has a way of making you feel like you are talking to a friend you know instead of being “interviewed” as just a client. John is genuine, upfront, entertaining, insightful, and very professional. We hired him with complete confidence, and we were excited to have him and his company on board. Then COVID hit. We ran through a gauntlet of decision-making and emotions. With everything shut down on our tentative wedding day, we had no clue what we were going to do. A week before, we decided to keep our day and have all the formal celebrations in the future. Happy Tears not only stepped up but blew us away. They were amazing enough to stand in for the original day we wanted WHILE clearing the schedule for our formal day next year. They created one of the most meaningful videos for us to remember, and the experience was effortless. True to form, Happy Tears delivered one of the most incredible experiences we have had, and that was just beginning. They did not just make an amazing video; they became a part of the amazing moments we had that day. We cannot WAIT until next year to have our new friends as a part of our formal celebration. If reading about our experience makes you want to pick up your phone, just wait until you do. You will not be disappointed.
