If given a choice between photo, text and video, chances are high you’ll choose video. Videos continue to be the best medium of communication. They are interactive, entertaining and appeal to our visual and auditory senses.

That is why having a wedding video is important for every couple. Not only is it a great keepsake, a video relays your wedding story in a unique and interesting way, fun to watch. But what exactly makes a good video?

Short and sweet

Gone are the days when you had to sit through a 2-hour video. It is no longer about the length but the quality that matters. A good video captures the most important moments in a compelling and entertaining way. Length can vary depending on the purpose of the video.

A wedding trailer of 3-5 minutes captures the highlights of the wedding day and can be broadcasted during the reception or shared on social media. A documentary video between 30-50 minutes showcases more elaborately the day’s moments in detail. Visit for More Help.

Good storytelling

Candid moments

Such authentic, not posed moments are common in wedding photography. However, when incorporated into a wedding video, candid moments liven up the story to create a fun interesting montage. Such moments include people laughing, kids playing, bride or groom crying, people dancing and many others.

Details
