A Wedding Video is Generational

On the fence about whether you should get a wedding video or not? Did you know that one of the biggest regrets brides have after their wedding day is that they didn’t get a wedding video. You’ve probably read all the pros and cons about wedding videos, but here are the two most overlooked reasons as to why having a videographer on your wedding day is more important than you think.

1. After months and months of planning, your wedding day finally arrives, and it goes by in a flash. There is so much of your wedding day that you forget or never see. The pre-ceremony prep, your vows, the ceremony itself, the reception, all go by so fast you hardly have time to take it in. What makes a wedding video so different from wedding photographs, is that you get to see and hear everything that you missed or forgot. Ask a friend or family member who were recently married… ask what they remember about their ceremony….their reception. Chances are, a lot less than you would think. A wedding video brings it all back, and then some, and let’s you relive your wedding day over and over again.

2.  You always hear from people older than you how fast the years fly by. Well, in this case they’re right. Ask a friend or family member who is celebrating their 5th, 10th, or 20th wedding anniversary, and they will tell you they can’t believe how fast the years have gone by. How long has it been since you graduated from high school or college? 10 year reunion coming up? Went by quick didn’t it. With a wedding video, you can go back and relive your wedding day like it was yesterday. With the HD quality of today’s cameras, you’ll experience it as if it were yesterday. Do your parents have a wedding video? Do you wish they did? Can you imagine your kids watching grandma and grandpa getting married? Do you wish you could see your grandparents wedding ceremony? How young everyone looked? A wedding video is not only for you, but for your family and future generations to come.

What Could Go Wrong?

 

Think your wedding day will go as planned?

Hmmmm…probably not.  But that’s okay. The wedding can’t start without you and it’ll be just as beautiful as you imagined it.  As Wedding Videographers, we get a rare glimpse into the workings of a wedding day from start to finish.  Here are a few things that may or may not happen on your wedding day, but don’t stress, things like these are bound to happen to almost every couple.

<It’s Bob’s turn to make the toast. Is Bob wearing a kilt? Is that make-up? OMG.

<Now honey, don’t smash the cake in my face…I don’t want to mess up my make-up. Honey???  Sweetheart?!?!? Don’t you dare!!!  Ohhhhh Noooooo!!!!

<Hey look, a pool….think we should? Should we dare? It’s a rental anyway. Who’s with me? OMG…they all jumped in the pool with their clothes on. 

<I can’t find my husband. (Fremont St.)

 

So will your wedding go off without a hitch?  Let’s hope so.  But the odds are not in your favor.  Remember, this is Las Vegas.  Don’t stress, because after it’s all over, you’ll just laugh about it.  All the bumps and bruises that happen that day are what make your wedding day different and special.
