23 July 2023 by Mooncast Films
Introduction
Dear future brides! As a dedicated professional within the realm of wedding videography I am profoundly grateful for having witnessed countless awe-inspiring love narratives. Allow me to enlighten you today on why allocating resources towards this artistic endeavor will prove to be one of the wisest decisions you shall make for your extraordinary day.
The Value of a Wedding Videographer
A wedding videographer serves a greater purpose than simply documenting your wedding; they possess the ability to capture the true spirit and significance of your significant day. Whether it is the heartfelt laughter and tears witnessed during the ceremony or the sheer delight and enthusiasm witnessed on the dance floor. A wedding videographer skillfully captures every precious moment. There was this one particular wedding I recall, where the groom surprised his bride with a melodious song. The expression on her face was simply invaluable and I had the privilege of immortalizing that cherished moment for eternity.
The Ability to Time Travel
Wedding videography has a remarkable quality that allows one to embark on a journey through time. When you view your wedding video the ability to relive that extraordinary day becomes tangible. Numerous couples have conveyed to me their immense joy in watching their wedding footage describing it as akin to being transported back in time to one of the happiest moments of their lives.
Seeing What You Might Have Missed
When it's your big day the whirlwind of emotions may cause you to overlook certain aspects. Fortunately. A wedding videographer is there to lend a helping hand. Their role entails capturing those precious moments that may slip through the cracks, such as your parents shedding tears during the ceremony or your friends sharing laughter at the reception.
The Creativity of a Wedding Videographer
As a wedding videographer, I love getting creative with the footage I capture. From unique angles to beautiful montages, I strive to make each wedding video a work of art. One of my favorite creative moments was when I used a drone on French Riviera to capture a couple's first dance. The aerial view added a unique perspective that the couple loved.
The Long-Term Value of a Wedding Video
Investing in a wedding videographer is an excellent decision that you will certainly not regret. Your wedding video will serve as a treasured keepsake. Allowing you to share beautiful memories with your loved ones and future generations. It truly is a timeless memento that you will hold dear for the entirety of your life.
Conclusion
To summarize a wedding videographer goes beyond being a mere vendor; they hold the role of a storyteller who can beautifully portray your love story like no other. Therefore. When arranging your wedding. Remember that investing in a wedding videographer means investing in cherished memories that will endure throughout your life. Let's raise a toast to love, laughter, and forever happiness!

The appropriate wedding videographer will be carefully chosen far in advance of your wedding day ensuring that you have someone you can entirely trust to produce everything you imagined and more. Remember all the good ones are booked up quickly so don't leave it till last minute!
Because your wedding day is yours to enjoy, you should ensure your wedding film is in best hands possible. This goes for all of your wedding vendors as well. Make sure you do your research and choose a wedding videographer who is the ideal fit for your vision by using these top tips.

9 TIPS TO ENSURE YOU CHOOSE THE RIGHT WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER
For peace of mind when selecting your wedding videographer, remember these 9 tips. If you follow these recommendations, you can be certain that you've chosen the best wedding filmmaker for you.
1) WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER?
We are drawn to art because of our emotional connections to it. You want to experience great emotion and truly appreciate what you see when you watch a videographer's work. It's a videographer's responsibility to visually recreate your day's events. You will be drawn to one professional over another based on the approach to how they capture those events. What inspires one individual may not motivate another. You'll quickly figure out which filming techniques you like best and which cinematographer inspires you as you do your research.
2) WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER
Before your wedding, be sure to communicate with your supplier. They will arrive at your wedding venue early on the day of the event to set up and take some venue shots to set the scene of your wedding. Your videographer will be there for various parts of your wedding day depending on the package you've chosen.
In order to set up and take venue shots, he/she will arrive at each site well before you do. Your videographer may be scheduled through the first dance, or you may have made arrangements for them to stay longer and record you and your guests dancing the night away. Similar to that, it's entirely up to you if you want your cameraman to capture you getting ready.
Do not be confused by the presence of two cameras. Two cameras will be used by your cinematographer because one is used for safety shots. Additionally, they will use discreet microphones to capture the sound during the ceremony or speeches.
3) HOW MANY WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHERS WILL THERE BE?
We offer packages with one or two wedding videographers. I always recommend to my couples to hire two videographers. That way we will be able to capture both bride and groom getting ready, also when one videographer will go out for a couple shoot, the other will be at the venue filming your guests enjoying their drinks. Ultimately you will get more footage making your wedding film more interesting.
You should think carefully about whether you want to employ your wedding photographer and videographer from the same company. Your wedding photos should match the style and mood of the wedding movie.
When you hire a wedding photographer and videographer that complement each other, you can be sure that your wedding films and photos will work well together. Also, it's much easier to communicate with one company than separately with the videographer and the photographer!

4) WHAT SHOULD BE IN A WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER CONTRACT?
Consider your contract for wedding videography as a receipt. Included in the contract should be the agreed price of your package, deposit information, cancellation terms and conditions, previously agreed shooting schedule, the number of videographers filming your wedding, and specifics about the finished products you will receive, such as DVDs and downloadable content.
5) WHAT SORT OF WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY COSTS SHOULD I EXPECT?
Spend as much on your wedding videography as you would on your wedding photography. The ultimate prices might be lower, but you want to make sure you have the money to choose the supplier who is the best for your needs rather than starting with a limited budget and hiring the wrong person. The cost of wedding videography varies widely, as it does with other services, but on average, most couples spend between £1500 and £3500 on their wedding films.
Remember that you should be able to choose from a variety of packages from your wedding videographer. Packages make the choice easier as you know exactly what you are getting. At Mooncast Films, we offer 4 already build packages and a number of ala carte options allowing you to create your dream wedding videography package. Even if it's difficult, try not to focus too much on pricing at first. That way, you won't be persuaded by a slightly cheaper offer but in the end, regret your choice.
6) HOW TO FIND A WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER?
Your wedding is unique to you, however, you shouldn't overlook ideas or recommendations from family and friends. And seeing the final product and hearing about the videographer from the person you trust is a great way to do research. If the suggested wedding videographer is not your kind, you are not obliged to use their suggestions. But word of mouth is the oldest form of marketing!
When conducting research, it's common for your initial priorities, needs or ideas to shift as you gain more knowledge about the subject. Therefore, it is advantageous to use a variety of resources to find the best wedding videographer for you.
Therefore, you must without a doubt search social media. Social media has the advantage of allowing you to check for consistency over time, get a good idea of the wedding videographer's style, see footage of recent weddings, and even direct message them with a few questions. Keep in mind that popular wedding videographers tend to fill up quickly, so get started with your search right away! And don't hesitate to check out our instagram page!
7) HOW TO BUILD A CLEAR PICTURE OF A WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER’S STYLE?
One of the best social media sites for checking out the profiles and work of wedding videographers is Instagram. It's incredibly simple to check videographer's style and view the latest weddings or venues they have filmed and finished wedding highlights.
But don't stop there; visit the videographers' websites to review their portfolios, read the content they've posted there, and read their blogs to understand their experience throughout the years. Additionally, you will be able to judge their professionalism, the services or types of packages they offer, and many more.
You may also read reviews on sites like Instagram and Google Reviews, where customers frequently provide input on the wedding videographers they hired. Click on the bottom below to read Google reviews from our lovely couples.
8) WHAT TO CONSIDER BEFORE CHOOSING YOUR WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER?
The biggest practical consideration to make is whether you gel with the wedding videographer you have in mind. Your videographer will be amongst your guests all day filming. That means it’s really important the filmmaker you choose will fit comfortably with you, your partner, your family and friends. How will you know? Connection.
There are some people you connect with easily. When you interact with your wedding videographer in the run-up to your wedding, your interactions should feel warm, comfortable and relaxed. Your chosen videographer should make you feel at ease and confident they can execute the job exactly as you envisioned.
These types of connections are evident from early on so if it doesn’t feel right, that videographer’s unlikely to be the right one. Creativity comes from within and is very personal. If you don’t gel, the tone of their wedding video probably won’t be right for you.
9) TIPS FOR BRIDES FOR WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY SUCCESS
The biggest tip is to be yourself and try to forget the camera’s there. It’s like most big occasions, during the build-up you’ll be full of nerves but once you’ve exchanged vows, you’ll enjoy the best celebration of your life.
You won't even notice the wedding videographer is there! It's important to choose a professional like me who works discreetly, capturing natural moments without being intrusive. Rest assured, you won't have a video camera trained on you all day. Just be yourself, enjoy the day, and your joy will naturally shine through in the video.
Secondly, when deciding what you want your wedding videographer to shoot, remember they always need to stay one step ahead so they can be at each location well before you.
If you plan to have the videographer present during the preparation phase, remember to allocate ample time for them to arrive at the venue before everyone else. While you want your wedding film to capture natural moments, it's beneficial to consider specific events that would look good on film. These could include the reveal of the dress, certain speeches, and your first dance. Try to anticipate these stand-out moments and incorporate them into the videography plan
Conclusion
In conclusion, you want to book an experienced wedding videographer who is going to produce a wedding film of the highest quality that also works with your budget. I have a range of packages available that will ensure your wedding film is a luxury, bespoke, creative and spectacular cinematic production that surpasses your expectations. A stunning wedding film that far outweighs any costs.
Why Wedding Videography Is Important ?

So you are engaged and getting married, exciting times! And now you are going to plan you big day. Weddings can be expensive, and costs do add up quickly. Some memories sadly will fade over the years therefore having these moments captured on a film is priceless. According to many sources of the couples’ biggest regrets is not hiring a wedding videographer. On the other hand some of those couples who wait to hire the wedding videographer a month or two before their wedding lose the ability to hire the best in the industry. Here are five benefits of hiring a wedding videographer and why wedding videography is important.
Capturing cherished memories for eternity
1) VIDEO CAPTURES MOVING IMAGES AND AUDIO, PHOTOGRAPHY CAN ONLY CAPTURE THE MOMENT
One of the most important benefits of hiring a wedding videographer is that video captures sounds in addition to moving images. While photographs do not have the ability to capture those sounds. Many years passed and it's invaluable to hear again your shaking voice during the ceremony or cries and laughter during the speeches. At Mooncast Films we believe in integrating our film with professionally captured audio to relive these emotions years later. You can also view your wedding venue from above if you choose our package which includes drone footage.
2) TIMES HAVE CHANGED FOR WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY
Stereotypical wedding videographer dressed in comfortable sandals and a waistcoat, carrying a huge broadcast camera on their arm is a thing of the past. Nowadays videographers use small and discreet equipment because we want to go unnoticed and capture the most natural shots possible. At Mooncast Films we wear black to blend in as much as possible. This gives us the ability to record genuine emotions and expressions.
3) A WEDDING FILM CAN PACK A LOT OF PRECIOUS MOMENTS IN A SHORT VIDEO
A great wedding videographer knows how best to capture the most important highlights and through creative narrative tell the love story from your big day. You may not even notice we are there as we do not want to interrupt the moments as they unfold. This and expert editing skills enables us to create short highlight video that you can watch and share with loved ones over and over again. Additionally, you will also receive up to 20 minutes Main Feature Film & full video of the speeches and ceremony, depending on the package you select.
4) NOWADAYS SHARING YOUR WEDDING FILMS IS EASY
With social media and today’s technology sharing your video with your friends and family is simple. Also, unfortunately, not everyone is able to make it to your wedding and having a wedding film gives you the ability to share the special moments. The days of VHS and DVDs have been replaced by Instagram and Vimeo uploads. Showing off a clip of your wedding video on social media will give you a lot of satisfaction. Only if you choose professional wedding videographers like Mooncast Films of course.
5) WEDDING VIDEO WILL SHOW DETAILS YOU MAY HAVE MISSED
Your wedding day will go by very quickly and before you realise you wake up as husband and wife. Unfortunately, you will not be able to see everything during the day like your beautiful bridesmaids walking down the aisle. You will not see your parents sharing the tear when you say “I do”. Having a professional wedding video will enable you to appreciate all the details you worked so hard on, like flower arrangements or table settings. Wedding film allows you to see the moments you missed and gives you the full picture of your big day – and you can’t put a price tag on that. That's why Why Wedding Videography Is Important!
