"Thank you for all your hard work in capturing our wedding day on video. We were very pleased with the results in spite of originally not even wanting a video! As promised you were completely unobtrusive and yet managed to video many special moments. Thank you again "

Why have a Wedding Video?

From experience most couples feel that their wedding day goes by in a blur and that they do not remember the finer details of the celebrations. Things like guests' outfits, excited bridesmaids and the guests laughing at the speeches can all get missed in the excitement. Throughout the day you are often in one place for a long time, while having photographs taken for example, and may miss some lovely moments elsewhere.

A video is an excellent way of capturing these details, allowing you and your guests to relive the event for years to come.

How we work

During the day we film in the background using a small HDV camcorder, this allows us to film quietly without interruption to your big day. Normally we use one camera however extra cameras are available for larger weddings. It's our challenge to make your wedding video interesting, fun and enjoyable to watch.

The finished DVD will be sent out to you one calendar month from the event and will be approximately 1 hour in length, your welcome to a copy of the unused footage too.

We also offer a 'filming only' package for couples on a tighter budget or wanting to edit there own wedding video, please email for more information.
