3 Benefits of Wedding Videography for Your Small Intimate Wedding

6/24/2020

4 Comments

 
As you plan your small wedding, it’s likely that finding the perfect photographer is one of the first things on your list. Whether you’re hiring for first look photos and the reception, or only the ceremony, photography is an integral part of every wedding because it gives you beautiful memories to frame and look back on.
Often an afterthought, though, is videography. It’s similar to photography, but boasts many differences which are worth thinking over before deciding whether or not to splurge on a videographer. 

I hear you: your wedding is small, intimate, and anything but extravagant. You may be thinking that a videographer in addition to a photographer is overkill. However, you may find that hiring a videographer to capture a beautiful wedding video is the perfect way to complement the photos you’ll receive following the ceremony, helping you remember your special day for years to come.

​I’ve compiled a list of the top benefits of wedding videography to help you decide whether or not it’s right for your wedding.​​

1. It will capture the moments you don’t see.

On your wedding day, you’re going to be the center of attention. This means that, even if your guest list is short, you’re likely going to be preoccupied and spending your time experiencing the day for yourself instead of watching it unfold around you.
This means that there’s a chance that you will miss precious moments such as your grandmother crying as you walk down the aisle, your maid of honor fixing your veil, or your soon-to-be spouse getting ready in their own dressing room. A wedding video can capture these moments in ways photos simply can’t, allowing you to see all the moments you missed and relive your wedding from a new perspective.

2.  A wedding video serves as a timeless keepsake.

While it may be difficult to justify spending large amounts of money on an expensive dress or extravagant decorations that will just be thrown away following the reception, a well-made video is something you can keep - and treasure - for years. 
It will allow you to relive your day again and again, and will serve as a constant reminder of your love for your spouse, capturing emotions and loving touches that are hard to see in photos.

3. Relatives and friends who did not attend can experience the wedding afterward.

Your wedding is small, meaning everyone - from your friend from college algebra to your very distant relatives - may not be able to attend. A wedding video is a great way to allow them to experience the wedding from anywhere in the world after the wedding, keeping your wedding party small but allowing those who want to see you walk down the aisle and tie the knot to do so.
There are countless ways to allow people to view your wedding video, from sending it via email, to uploading it to a social media site like YouTube. This makes for easy access and inclusion for everyone who could not attend.
The benefits of wedding videography go on and on. When considering whether to hire a videographer for your wedding, consider what a video could bring to your special day - and what it could help you take from it.

It got me when you said that a wedding video can capture moments that we might miss when walking down the aisle. With that in mind, we should really hire a video production service for our special day this coming December. It would definitely be a nice moment to look back on after the event and years after as well.

I liked it when you said that photography can capture beautiful memories during a wedding. My younger brother is planning to make a mini-video for his proposal to his long-time German partner in March. I will definitely tell him to look for a video production company on Friday that can create a high-quality video using the latest tools and technologies, like drones and three-dimensional computer modeling.

I love that you talked about reliving the special day, again and again, to remind ourselves of our love for each other when we get videos captured at our wedding. I will definitely include wedding event cinematographers for the suppliers we will hire this coming December. It will definitely be a great way to actually see what happened during that day, especially if there are things that I was not able to notice when I get busy that day.

I like how you said that a wedding video can be beneficial to all those who cannot attend. There are still some of my relatives and friends who are reluctant to go back out because of COVID. I feel that hiring to get wedding films is important for these people. We will be sure to hire someone for our spring wedding.
