How we do it

Generally we would be filming your wedding video in the following way...

Preparations: This is often fun since your important family members and friends are very involved during this part of the day. Generally the brides have more of a need to be filmed due to the whole dressing and make up rituals & However, occasionally the groom also likes the spotlight during this period.

Arrivals: Filming the guests arriving at the church, flowers, decorations, and more importantly, clips of the groom waiting for his bride.

Ceremony: We film it all.

Photo session: A behind the scene of the making of the photographs. Very stunning, romantic and fun.

Messages: You can either choose who you would like to give a message to you on DVD, or we can go from table to table at the reception. This is fantastic if there are certain faces and personalities that you would specifically like to remember in the years to come.

Reception: We film it all. Our suggestion is that we don’t stay for longer than about 20 minutes once the formalities are over and the actual party starts. By that time we have more than sufficient footage to make a fantastic DVD for you. It’s also more comfortable for the guests not being filmed all the time.
