You can find samples of our wedding films here.
WHEN’S THE BEST TIME TO BOOK?
Our team usually gets 100+ wedding requests per year and only book around 40. We always recommend reaching out as soon as you’re thinking about booking to secure your date!
WHAT’S YOUR LIMIT ON HOURS?
Our Vow Video package covers a total of 8 hours! We film for all 8 of those hours and take short breaks in between shots. We do this because we want to capture everything we need to bring your vision to life. Generally, we start when you’re getting ready in the morning and wrap after getting footage of everyone dancing at the end of the night. We want you to love your film and as a result want to capture all of the memories that mean the most to you. If 8 hours isn’t enough we’ll stick around for only $125 per extra hour. Our Highlight Film package covers a total of 4 hours.
DO YOU SETUP DISTRACTING LIGHTING?
Nope! We love filming in natural lighting. We don’t use an extra light during the day or even during the night. Our cameras are good enough to deliver high quality images even in low light conditions, and as you can tell it looks great!
DO YOU RECORD THE VOWS?
Yes! This is what makes our wedding films unique. We want you to hear your vows in the final film because you’re the narrator of this love story ☺
DO YOU RECORD THE AUDIO FOR THE CEREMONY & SPEECHES?
No, but we can! Our Vow Video package doesn’t include audio of the ceremony & speeches, but if this is something you’re interested in contact us! We can build customized add-ons based on the vision you have in mind.
HOW DO YOU ENSURE THERE’S HIGH-QUALITY AUDIO?
When recording vows, we use a Lav mic to capture the audio for both the Bride and Groom separately. The way we hide wires during filming is an art form within itself. Our mics also won’t interfere with any signals coming from your DJ, it’s recorded internally. If you don’t want to use a Lav mic we have a boom mic setup as well.
WILL YOU GET IN THE WAY A LOT?
Nope, being lowkey is the name of the game! We do our best to blend in on your wedding day. We don’t set up tripods in the middle of the aisle or leave piles of gear all over the place. We’re super organized and try to draw the least amount of attention possible. Our hope is that you notice us less than you notice your photographer!
DO WE GET TO MEET YOU BEFORE THE WEDDING?
Yes, we’d love to meet before your wedding! If you live relatively close to our office we’d love to grab coffee or give you a tour! We can also set up a video chat beforehand to go over details and say hello. After the initial meeting, we’ll schedule a timeline meeting to go over the final schedule and plan out detailed shot lists.
HOW LONG AFTER THE WEDDING UNTIL I GET MY FILM?
This can vary, but normally it takes about two months after the wedding day until the final film is done. We’ve never gone over those deadlines! Sometimes It’s a lot quicker, but it just depends on where in the year your wedding lands and the amount of backlog our team has.
WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU GET SICK, ETC. AND CAN’T MAKE IT?
For one, in all our years of being in business this has NEVER happened (knocking on wood currently). We’ve never once missed a wedding for any reason ever. If this were to happen for some reason we’d contact you right away and see if we could find a fitting replacement. We have tons of connections with amazing filmmakers in the area and will let you know ASAP if we need to make last-minute changes. Since we work with two skilled filmmakers the chances of both of them canceling is very slim. If things go south you’d get a 100% refund and we’d continue assisting you along the way.
DO YOU GET ALONG WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHER AND OTHER VENDORS?
We get along with EVERYONE! Photographers tend to love us because we help them just as much as they help us. We’re super respectful of every vendor and work with them, not against them! Our goal is to earn 5-star reviews from the vendors as well as our couples!
I’M A GROWING FILMMAKER LOOKING TO IMPROVE MY CRAFT, DO YOU OFFER ANY RESOURCES?
Yes we do! Reach out to us and we’ll get you connected to the right resources! We have a growing community of filmmakers and DJs and want to help grow their skills. Also, keep an eye on our blog for tips and tricks that’ll take your videography skills up a level!
