Wedding videography has changed a lot since the days of watching your parents’ 4-hour reception tape. New and creative ways to film and edit your wedding vid- eo make it a memento that you’ll want to watch every day! Drones As an added feature, this package en- hancement will add some dollars to your price tag. The resulting film, though, is so worth it! Drones can fly above your ceremony as guests arrive, circle you as you recite your vows, and show great views of your venue. Drones are a fun and innovative way to vary perspectives in your wedding video so it’s not static or monotonous. Same-Day Editing Some videographers may offer Same- Day Editing. This means that they can take the film captured as you get ready and at your ceremony and edit it before the reception. You can display it on a blank wall, have a projection on your cake, or set up a table with a small tele- vision for guests to watch. Keep in mind that while you may be able to receive a copy of this video, it is not the final copy. Your version will include moments from the reception and will have special ef- fects, better sound quality, and smooth- er editing. Blooper Reels Everyone loves watching bloopers! Ask your videographer if it’s possible to add a short blooper reel at the end of your wedding video or a separate short video to share on social media. Some of the clips may include Grandma dancing the Cha-Cha Slide, two single ladies fight- ing over the bouquet, or guests messing up their interviews/well-wishes. Save-the-Date Video Many engaged couples have taken ad- vantage of this wonderful world of technology and social media by creat- ing Save-the-Date videos! Not only are these videos fun to make, but they can be used on your wedding website and social media, and will help the environ- ment! During your engagement shoot, invite a videographer to attend and get some shots of you posing for the pho- tographer, laughing, walking hand in hand, and holding up your wedding date! These videos can even include the proposal if planned in advance! Wedding videos are so much fun to watch and rewatch with your new spouse, family, and future generations and can be a great way to include any guests who couldn’t make it to the wed- ding. Ask your videographer about dif- ferent trends and technologies to see how you can make your wedding video simply one-of-a-kind! ❤ video trends 98 | TODAY’S BRIDE READ MORE AT TODAYSBRIDE.COM
