When Your Wedding Videographer Doesn’t Do This For A Living

When Your Wedding Videographer Doesn’t Do This For A Living

By Janilyn Mahoney

Before we get into the finer tips for helping your wedding videography turn out great, let’s remember the old adage, “You get what you pay for”.  If you want your wedding videography to be an award winning piece of work, then you should probably plan on paying someone.  However, with a few easy tips and reminders of things to remember you can have a beautiful wedding videography done by an amateur and save yourself a lot of money.

First it is important the reason that you are having a wedding videography in the first place.  You want a way to capture and remember the activities and emotions of the day. So, with a little planning and communication between the videographer and the couple you should be able to get the things you want on your wedding videography. For things like the bride coming up the aisle to meet the groom, the wedding party getting ready, the vows, and the newlyweds walking back down the aisle you should plan  where the best place to be to get the best video footage will be.

A good wedding videography is not all about the picture it is also important to be in a position to get good audio at important times like when the vows are said or the toasts that are given at the rehearsal dinner or endearments from parents.

Remember that while the day may be about you, a decade from now you are going to rely on your wedding videography to help you know who was there and shared that special day with you.  It will be so rewarding to see Uncle Bill and little Tommie, as they were then, especially if Uncle Bill is no longer alive. So ask your videographer to include video footage on your wedding videography of the guests and things that may be going on during the activities that you may not be a part of that you will want to remember.  Who doesn’t want to remember who decorated the get-away car? Maybe your wedding videography will be used as evidence that your little brother really was involved in that decorating party!
