Each wedding ceremony is different as it tells different stories. From ballroom to reception hall, no two events unfold in quite the same way for marriage ceremonies. Moreover, from groomsmen to flower girl, father of the bride to the guests, everybody will bring their own personalitiesin the wedding video.


Photography and videography persons play a pivotal role in the any wedding ceremony. So, to make amazing wedding videos, there are some basic plans and ideas that you need to chalk for a seamless professional service.
  • Communicate
Have a detailed discussion with the bride and the groom to know if they are exactly are they looking for in some specific shots in the video. Do they want to capture the moments or would they like to choreograph the moves? Being ready to capture the moments what the couple wants will truly marks the authenticity of your work.
Many churches won’t allow cameras in certain areas. So before the ceremony starts, get you permission from the venue before getting in the premise for shooting.
  • Don’t carry heavy gears
The mornings of a wedding have a fairly typical operation but there can be a lot of ups and downs in the evening when you have to keep on running and maneuver through the guests. It is thus wise to keep the heavy camera kit in a corner and move with shoulder rigs. Keep batteries, memory cards and lenses ready whenever required.
  • Traditional wedding shots
All amazing wedding videos have the perfect mix of some smart shots as well as the typical wedding day moves. Experimenting is a great way to display the style but every couple would love to cherish the moment of their first vows, first cake cutting, and first dance. Do not overdo the edit with too much transition shots but that must not over ride the traditional shots.
  • Missing the original audio is just wrong
There cannot be re-takes for “I Dos” in wedding. They need to be captured organically as and how it happen. To avoid any miss, it is better to be geared with multiple audio sources of recording. External recorders can be set when the camera does not have quality sound. Go for a lavalier microphone on the groom is often a common process. In case there’s DJs in the house, make sure beforehand to manipulate the sound accordingly.
  • Setting the lights
Shooting the evening receptions has always been a challenge for the wedding filmmakers because of the light. Talk about the light set up in the wedding hall or church as it is generally dimmed after dinner so that there is no difficulty in shooting the party. Not all cameras can switch low light so make sure to have the alternate arrangements.
  • Make sure there's enough B-roll
Editing wedding videography is a daunting and often tiring task as all the rolls are full of emotions. Without enough b-rolls it will be tricky to generously cut certain parts to have the proper footages in the final reel. For destination wedding, there's often the shot of the exterior of the venue but should also have the rolls showing the guests coming in. Shooting the crowds will always come handy for rough edits.
Wedding is one of the most important events in your life you will cherish forever. So more than the cameras and the other factors, it is the people, the smiles and the other factors that mark the specialty of the day.
