A contemporary wedding videographer will produce a DVD that is not so much a home movie, more a television special or feature film. Professional videographers will keep in the background quietly filming and recording all that takes place, then carefully editing it in their studio to incorporate all the best bits into a wonderful memorable wedding video.

Most professional video production companies offer a wedding package to include attendance on the day and editing production of a high quality DVD and perhaps a shortened edit. Whether they bring a second cameraman, and how much time they spend editing your wedding video will depend on your budget. The more time spent the more expensive the package, but the better the result will be.

A good camera man (or woman) should be unobtrusive, yet capture all that went on, including a lot that the bride and groom didn't see or hear. Compared to still photographs, you will have a record of not only the entire day, but also a more intense experience: the pure entertainment of all the voices, music, laughter, atmosphere, movement and pace from your special day.

Do we need to video the day?

The majority of couples don't have a video, and yet all those who do, say afterwards "we are so glad we did" when they see the results that can be achieved these days. Most couples feel that the day went too quickly and all in a blur, so imagine being able to snuggle together on the sofa for an evening alone to re-live the day. Imagine having your friends round to view the highlights chapter, reminiscing over what happened. Imagine watching while your family point out all the guests you didn't have a chance to meet properly. Imagine listening to your vows again, which will have gone by on the day without registering!

Most importantly, for those with close family or friends who for any reason are unable to attend, modern videography enables you to send them a high definition wedding video so that they can get a real feel of the day.

Here are the is what to look for in a professional wedding video:

  • Correct pace. You shouldn't be bored after watching the first few seconds, because nothing much is happening.
  • Is the picture steady, so you can watch without feeling seasick? Or is it wobbling and crooked, because they don't keep the camera still?
  • Can you hear the voices properly, especially during the ceremony and the speeches?
  • Can your videographer produce not only DVDs, but also widescreen pictures. Your wedding should fill that new expensive television screen properly, not be stretched to fit.
  • Your DVD should have chapter markers and menus, so you can re-live the parts you want. It should have a short highlights section, when you want a quick fix(!) and maybe a brief trailer, to show friends who don't want to watch the entire video.

YouTube and Social Media videos

In the fast moving world of social media you may find that there are wedding clips from your special day on YouTube before you have even danced your last dance, and pity the bride that faints at the altar, or the bridesmaid that knocks over the wedding cake; there is a good chance that someone has caught it on video and it will be added to all the other wedding disaster videos online before the day is over. With video cameras on most mobile phones there is little you can do to control or prevent this although most ministers and wedding celebrants will request that only the official videographer should shoot footage of the actual ceremony.

Wedding Videographers FAQs

Professional videographers will keep in the background quietly filming and recording all that takes place, then carefully editing it in their studio to incorporate all the best bits into a wonderful memorable wedding video. Most professional video production companies offer a wedding package to include attendance on the day and editing production of a high quality DVD.

The best way to figure out which videographer suits you best is to watch three complete wedding films from each filmmaker and choosing the one that best conveys the overall mood of the day. A good wedding videographer should be unobtrusive, yet capture all that went on, including a lot that the bride and groom didn’t see or hear.

The majority of couples don’t have a video, and yet most couples feel that the day went too quickly and all in a blur. A wedding video, compared to still photographs, provide you with a record of not only the entire day that you can relive again and again, but also a more intense experience: the pure entertainment of all the voices, music, laughter, atmosphere, movement and pace from your special day. Most importantly, for those with close family or friends who for any reason are unable to attend, modern videography enables you to send them a high definition wedding video so that they can get a real feel of the day.

Be sure before booking a wedding videographer to view some of their work. Key signs of a professional wedding video include a correct pace, steady and high-quality picture, high quality audio, a widescreen-friendly picture and an easy to use DVD with chapter markers and menus.

Broadly, there are three different wedding film styles that you need to be aware of: a film of just the ceremony, the documentary style film which will involve no extra music and will simply follow the day as it unfolds from the preparations through to the first dance and the cinematic style, which can include extensive editing, camera drones to capture aerial views and music of your choice, and will capture the day from the Bride’s preparation to the First Dance.

The cost of a wedding videographer will vary depending on style, experience and time. Generally, you can expect to pay between £1,000 and £2,000, but wedding videography packages will vary as to how long your video is.
