Morii Media

  • Serves Brightwaters, NY

I’m Brie — the filmmaker behind Morii Media, where I capture fleeting moments before they fade. Before starting Morii Media, I spent years editing and shooting for major brands like BuzzFeed, NBC, Nickelodeon, MTV, BET, and the NHL. I earned awards along the way — I climbed that corporate ladder — but after losing both my brother in 2017 and my father in 2020, my mindset shifted on what type of work I wanted to be creating. I wanted to create something that felt real and something that held value after COVID — that’s what drives everything I create today.

Briana was so amazing and we truly can’t say enough great things about her. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative and immediately put our minds at ease. On the wedding day, she was so helpful, calm, and genuinely easy to work with! You can really tell how much she cares about properly portraying each couple’s love story. She took such thoughtful, involved care during the editing process, making sure every detail was perfect and made the video so genuine and unique to our personalities. Our video turned out more beautiful than we could have imagined, and we’ll treasure it forever!!

We've been honored to create wedding films for hundreds of incredible couples. Each one of their stories is distinctive and we pride ourselves on creating moving films that artistically convey those love stories. We believe your wedding is not just about one day. It’s about your story leading up to that day and the stories that will come after. Our wedding videos bring your day to life – allowing the two of you to relive every laugh, every tear, and every moment that went by in a flash. Your loved ones will thank you for allowing your celebration to serve as a legacy of family history for generations to come.

Toast Weddings was the perfect choice for our wedding videography needs. From the very beginning, their team was responsive, compassionate, and highly professional in their communication. The quality of their work was excellent - they captured all the special, custom moments of our wedding day in Waialua, Hawaii with a keen eye for detail. As a couple who was 7 months pregnant with our first child at the time, the Toast Weddings team went above and beyond to cater to our unique situation and make sure our memories were beautifully preserved. Our videographer, Jason, had a truly creative vision that shone through in the final highlight video we received just 3 months after our wedding. We are beyond happy with our experience and the forever memories Toast Weddings has given us of our special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you plan on having a video of your special day, Alëna is a MUST. She was so attentive through the planning process, is extremely detail oriented, and was so interested in learning exactly how we wanted our wedding captured. Day of the wedding, she had 3 cameras with her to capture different angles, and was great with making sure she caotured every moment. Both our short (4 min) trailer vid and full length wedding video were EXACTLY what I pictured. They were both edited beautifully and it was like watching a cinematic production of my life. She is genuinely the kindest human, and made my day so special. I cannot recommend her enough.

Chad and his team were a joy to work with! Chad is so creative and came up with the idea to send us an old school camcorder to record candid, behind the scenes moment from our wedding weekend and weave those into our traditional wedding video. It was SUCH a hit with the guests and came out better than we could have even imagined! He was also able to set up a live stream of our wedding ceremony so everyone who was unable to attend could still watch in real time! I highly recommend working with Mist Moss!!

We hired Instillwonder to capture our wedding ceremony, and my gosh is our video amazing!!

Hi! I’m Julia, middle name Margo, a film school dropout and music buff who wants to make your wedding look like art. I'm here to represent diversity in the couples I work with and weddings I shoot (love is love), to give you something hyper-shareable that will instantly transport you in space and time for the rest of your lives, and to make you cry upon watching. The crying is very important. Bear with me on this analogy, but basically I like my wedding films like I like my salads: raw, organic, a little bit of quirk and flare, and consumed alongside great music. If this sound pretty good to you, have a look at my work and get in touch!

Awarded Best of Zola
Margo Sees Stars created the most beautiful wedding video for my sister’s 2018 wedding so when it came time to choose my video team, working with Julia and her team was a no-brainer! As expected, our second experience with Julia and team was as comfortable and seamless as the first! If I had another sibling, Margo Sees Stars would be the videographer of choice!

Hi I’m Anthony! I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was 14 - what started as a teenage curiosity quickly grew into a lifelong passion for storytelling. Over the years, I’ve taught myself everything I know about filmmaking, and after filming my first wedding five years ago, I knew I had found my purpose. There’s something truly special about capturing the emotion, laughter, and small, unspoken moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. It’s an honor every single time I get to help couples preserve that feeling forever

Anthony captured ALL of our favorite moments during our wedding. He was very attentive and even helped guide us during certain moments when taking photos. I have recommended him to many friends and they all love him and his work!!

Wedding Weekender is redefining wedding video with a more authentic, accessible way to capture your celebration. We send camcorders for your friends and family to film candid moments across your wedding weekend — from getting ready to the dance floor and everything in between. Afterward, our editing team shapes that footage into a thoughtful, nostalgic wedding video that feels true to your celebrations. We believe meaningful wedding video should feel personal, accessible, and rooted in real moments.

Simply OBSESSED. I worked with the Wedding Weekender for my bachelorette and wedding and both times was SO happy with the result. The team is prompt and communicative, answering our questions before and quick to provide our footage afterward. It was such a bonus to get all the raw footage in addition to the final video - my husband and I watched clips every night on our honeymoon, the best way to reminisce!! I loved having content that was from the POV of my guests, it makes you feel like you’re right back in the middle of things. Lastly, this was such a cost effective solution when you already have so many other things to worry about. Video was the first thing we cut from our budget, but with this we were able to have it all. I couldn’t recommend them more!!!

We want to capture the big and little moments of your celebration, because these moments are worth preserving ♡

Nadia captured our wedding day with the exact energy I was looking for!
