Should You have a Wedding Video?

I will let Nicole and Jason answer that question … as she explains, Nicole was hesitant about whether they needed to have a wedding film:

Dear Dave

Jason and I sat down last night to watch our wedding DVD and what can I say … it was brilliant – we are still in awe from the first viewing.

You might remember I was not sold on the idea of a wedding video when we were first planning the wedding, but Jason was really insistant and after seeing Daniel & Jess’ wedding film I could see why he wanted a video but still was concerned about having a people follow me (I’m not a big fan of having my photograph taken let alone a video camera following me around).

On reflection you guys were real ninjas – I felt like I barely saw you guys all day. And then to sit down last night and see some of the footage that you got, including Kate and I messing around before getting ready, it was priceless.

There is so much that you don’t see on the day, not because you’re not looking but because you’re too excited and nervous to take everything in, and I know for myself I did walk away from the wedding thinking about how much I must have missed out on but you guys caught it all and to be able to sit down now and see it is incredible.

I would also highly recommend the interviews. Jas and I loved being able to see how each other felt in the morning. It was also interesting to hear each others talk about our relationship, especially the fact that we consider our first date to be different times :)

All in all, we could not be happier with what you have produced, and we wanted to say thank you again for all your work, and especially thank you for the additional camera in the evening, I really don’t think that we could have asked for better service or a better quality product.

Warm regards
Nic
