Is a Wedding Videographer Worth It?
Over the years the idea of having a wedding videographer capture your special day has become more and more popular. Many wedding photographers are now offering video services alongside their photography because many cameras that take gorgeous photos are also capable of capturing high quality videos that, in the right hands, can be edited and produce stunning and cinematic visuals that not only capture the magic of your wedding day, but allow you relive it every time you re-watch it. Today I wanted to break down some reasons why a wedding videographer might be worth it when planning your wedding.
Relive the Day
The main reason a wedding videographer is worth budgeting for alongside a photographer is that a wedding video allows you to relive those important moments from your wedding day for years and years to come. Your wedding day is full of love and excitement, so capturing moments like the first kiss, the parents dance and the send off will let you see and remember every minute of those moments. With a well produced wedding video you’ll be able to see your day go from preparation to the moment you and your partner are sent off to start your journey as a married couple, all edited together to look beautiful and cinematic in a 7- 10 minute video.
Hear the Love
A photo is worth a thousand words, but a video with crystal clear audio will let you hear the emotions and see how you and your loved ones felt on your wedding day. Many family members make sincere and touching speeches for the couple getting married and to capture every word and replaying it years down the line will help you remember how special that entire day was. Many videographers take audio into consideration when they create your wedding videos. They want to make sure that not a word or moment is missed. Make sure when you’re consulting videographers that you ask about audio because you wouldn’t want to miss the amazing speeches and kind words people say about you on your magical day.
The Cost
Creating beautiful visuals does come at a cost but by asking the right questions, reviewing past work and getting solid recommendations from trusted people, you can find a wedding videographer that will charge a fair price and deliver a stunning video of your wedding. Most wedding videographers are going to offer packages. In fact, at Wynn Media we offer 3 tiers of packages that couples can choose from with the best valued one starting at $1,500 which is what you can expect from most wedding videographers. Be sure to also contact your wedding photographer as most are now offering wedding videos in their wedding packages and if not they are an amazing resource to find a good and experienced wedding videographer.
