Should you have a Wedding Video? Yes you should, and for one simple reason: however great your photographs are, nothing can transport you back in time to experience the joy of your wedding day like a video can. Photographs can capture snapshots in time, but they are only frozen images. A video can tell the story of your day with all the tear-jerking moments, amusing little mishaps and joyful surprises as they unfold. And ultimately, without fail every bride that didn’t get one says the same thing: ‘If only we had a video.’ You will find there are many things that on the day, caught up in all the excitement, you didn’t even notice. Whether it’s your uncle shedding a tear in the second pew or your Dad strutting his seventies moves on the dance floor, you’ll be glad you have the evidence on film! Wedding videos have come a long way since the film of yesteryear which was typically a three hour record of every little detail of the day, interesting or not. Today’s videos achieve an ever increasing level of sophistication, and with the right videographer the effect is more like starring in your own movie. A talented videographer will film in a documentary style, with clips edited together with music to create lively footage that captures the feel of your day. Despite this sophistication you may be pleasantly surprised by just how inexpensive a good videographer’s services can be. If you only have enough left in your budget for your photographs, consider spending part of this on a video and limit the number of hours your photographer stays. That way you can get the best of both worlds. A wedding video makes a wonderful gift for close friends and family or for those who could not be with you. Elderly relatives will wear your video out with watching and your parents will proudly screen it to all the neighbours! Ultimately however it’s an investment you can one day hand over to your children and grandchildren, allowing future generations to revisit the moment in time when grandma and grandpa became husband and wife.
