The Value of a Wedding Video

There’s nothing like a wedding video to capture all the emotion and excitement of your special day. After your wedding day has come and gone along with all the food and wine, all that’s left is your photos and wedding video. That’s if you’ve got one. While a great photo album is definitely essential there’s a lot important content that only a wedding video can record.

With a quality wedding DVD you can relive all the special moments from your wedding day including the exchange of wedding vows, the bridal waltz and of course the best man’s speech. These are the memories that only real time sound and motion can capture. Of course all the day’s special moments will be brilliantly recorded and edited into a entertaining and emotional masterpiece that will have you laughing and crying as you relive all the memories with your family and friends.

Over the last few years the quality of wedding videos has dramatically improved with the transition to full high definition. Most leading wedding videographers can now deliver your most precious memories in stunning crystal clear quality on a Blu Ray disc. Without getting too technical a Blu ray disc can hold five times the data that a standard DVD can hold, which means the images are far less compressed. The end result is clean, vivid, beautiful vision that looks so real every viewing is like reliving your wedding day. In fact the difference in quality between Blu ray and DVD is so drastic I would seriously advise against booking a wedding videographer who can’t provide the Blu Ray format.

As the years pass by your wedding video will increase in sentimental value. It’s those vibrant moving images of our loved ones that mean so much more long after they are no longer with us. In fact the biggest fans of your wedding video weren’t even around during it’s production. That’s right – it’s your children (when they arrive) who will be fascinated with your wedding video. They’ll love watching Mum looking like a princess and Dad looking so handsome.

So now that you realise the importance of having a wedding video here are a few tips to keep in mind when choosing your wedding videographer. Firstly ask around about the reputation of the company and find out how long they’ve been in business. There is a lot of choice when choosing a wedding videographer in Perth Western Australia. A strong recommendation from a family member or friend is always a good starting point. Always ask to see samples of their work but not just the specially prepared demo they play to everyone. Specify to see a selection of real wedding videos, preferably filmed in the same church or reception venue as the ones you’ve selected. This is a good way to gauge if their work is consistent with all their customers.

Ensure the camera equipment is of a professional standard which can capture your day in full high definition. The editing style of the video is a subjective matter and ultimately it will be your individual taste that determines your preference. However always pay attention to the quality of the images. Some video companies will meticulously colour grade and digitally effect your entire video in the post production to deliver you vivid and crystal clear images which dazzle the eye and complement your appearance. It’s important to remember a lot of the magic happens in the editing. Try to avoid videos with sloppy editing and flat, lifeless pictures.

A last tip for a great wedding video is to remember to interact with the videographer on the day. Don’t be afraid to have fun by playing up to the camera as all those laughs and smiles will add up to a fantastic video full emotion and excitement that you’ll enjoy watching time after time.
