We cannot say enough great things about Monal and the Happy Soul team! From start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with. Monal was incredibly organized, professional, and flexible — especially considering our wedding was in California and he flew in early from Canada just for our pre-shoot. His dedication and work ethic were clear from day one. Throughout the entire process, Monal made everything so easy. He was always responsive, accommodating with our schedule, and went above and beyond to make sure every detail was captured beautifully. His cinematic vision is truly unmatched — every frame of our wedding film felt like a scene from a movie. The next day edit completely blew us away and brought tears to our eyes. We couldn’t be more grateful for how he and his team managed to capture all the special moments so perfectly. Even after the wedding, Monal continued to impress us with his responsiveness and timely delivery of stunning short films and edits. Every video has been a joy to watch and share with our family and friends.
If you're looking for a hardworking, talented, and passionate videographer who truly cares about his craft, we wholeheartedly recommend Monal and the Happy Soul team. Thank you for giving us memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime!
These guys are STELLAR! Have had the pleasure of seeing them in action twice now. Once for an ENTIRE week at a destination wedding in the Dominican Republic, and then recently at a milestone family event in the Toronto area.
Engaging, funny, warm, energetic, interactive -- the CROWD loves them and this generates GREAT photo and video. Their next-day edit at the destination wedding was MINDBLOWING. Consummate professionals -- HATS OFF. We worked with Monal, Anandu and Gaurav specifically -- rockstars, each of them.
We had an amazing experience working with Monal and Manmeet from Happy Soul Films. From start to finish, they were professional, kind, and incredibly talented. They captured our wedding day so beautifully and naturally — every important moment, emotion, and detail was thoughtfully filmed.
The final video exceeded our expectations and is something we’ll cherish forever. My wife works as an event planner and was especially impressed with their organization, creativity, and calm presence throughout the day. We would absolutely recommend Happy Soul Films to any couple and would love to work with Monal and Manmeet again in the future.
Happy Soul Films did an absolutely phenomenal job for our wedding. Monal is amazing with his edits and the whole team is great. They handled our E shoot, helped us coordinate locations perfectly, and were incredibly flexible and creative throughout the entire process. The concept film we did with them in Vegas for our E shoot video turned out amazing. On top of that, their Next Day Edit shown at our reception recapping all of our pre wedding events and the wedding itself was absolutely fantastic.
We completely trusted them not to miss a single moment during our large Indian wedding festivities. They have tonnes of experience and truly know how to capture things perfectly. My wife and I are not usually comfortable with posing, but they made us feel so relaxed and made us look amazing on both video and photo. We highly recommend them to anyone going forward.
We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Monal & The whole Happy Soul Films team for our wedding! From our dreamy eshoot in Miami to the coverage of all four of our wedding and pre-wedding events, everything was captured so beautifully and professionally.
They truly went above and beyond—making us feel comfortable in front of the camera, paying attention to every detail, and ensuring that all the special moments were preserved perfectly. Their creativity, patience, and dedication really showed in the final videos.
We’re so grateful to have these memories to look back on for years to come. Highly recommend them to any couple looking for a team that genuinely cares about telling your story in the most magical way possible!
Where do I even start; from arriving on time, to their attention to detail, being very patient, engaged our guest and brought out the perfect smile from everyone present. I’m glad we chose them. Had them come from Toronto to Ottawa and yet they were very affordable compared to other quotes we got. Thank you guys👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
