Your wedding day is one of the most magical events in your life. It’s a day filled with love, happiness, and once-in-a-lifetime moments with the ones you love most. Our True Love in Color (TLIC) team has been fortunate enough to capture over 250 unforgettable wedding celebrations and has witnessed firsthand the magic that unfolds during each couple’s day. While photos capture the moments, there’s nothing quite like reliving your moments in your own customized wedding film.
Here are a few reasons why wedding videography is a must-have for your wedding memories.
Capture the Emotions: Your wedding video has the ability to capture something photos can’t – the emotions in motion. A video shows the tears of joy, the laughter, the voices of your loved ones, the music of your reception, and the heartfelt speeches. Imagine your future self being able to hear and see moments of your loved ones that are no longer with you. A video is a way to experience your wedding in a way that photographers simply can’t capture. As one of our newlywed couples explained, “Our photos capture us how we should be, our video captures us exactly how we are.”
Relive the Moments: Your wedding day will fly by in a whirlwind of excitement. After all of the time spent planning in
anticipation, the moments you’ve been dreaming of become beautiful memories that can fade. Imagine if you were able to relive your first look with your father or your life-changing walk down the aisle to say “I Do”. Video allows you the gift of being able to rewind time so you can experience the emotions of your wedding day all over again.
See the Moments You Missed: Your wedding day is made up of countless moments, some of which can be overlooked amidst the hustle and bustle of the day. A videographer has the expertise to capture the ones that you may have missed. It’s these moments that often become the treasures we hold closest to our hearts. From the genuine reactions of your guests to the small details and candid interactions, a wedding video will reveal a whole new perspective of your day.
Share the Experience: It’s common that not everyone you’ve invited will be able to attend your wedding in person. Having a professionally filmed wedding video allows you to share the experience with those who couldn’t be there. A video gifts them with a front-row seat to relive all of your moments, from getting ready to send-off. It allows them to feel and experience the moments as if they were a part of the celebration.
Professional Quality and Expertise: While iPhones can capture decent videos, nothing compares to the quality and artistry of a professional videographer. They have the knowledge, experience, and equipment to capture and edit your wedding day with a cinematic touch. They understand how to frame shots, capture audio, and tell a cohesive story that reflects your personalities and the day’s events. There’s no need to worry about missing footage, loved ones being cropped out of the frame, or low-quality video.
Create a Keepsake: A wedding video is not just a documentary of your special day; it is a cinematic keepsake that you will have for the rest of your life. With professional editing techniques, music, and storytelling, your wedding video becomes a work of art that you can proudly share and pass down to future generations. It’s a treasure that connects your family and captures the legacy of your love story. Imagine if you were able to relive your parents’ or grandparents’ wedding moments. This is a gift you can invest in for your future children and grandchildren.
So, if you’re a couple in the middle of wedding planning, wondering if there’s room in your budget for videography, remember this: hiring a videographer for your wedding day is an investment that will gift you with priceless memories for a lifetime. After spending weeks, months, and sometimes years planning and investing your time, energy, and finances into this special day, after a whirlwind of a few hours, it all becomes just a beautiful memory. You deserve to have your wedding remembered forever and to relive your “True Love in Color”.
As one of our TLIC brides, Kelli shared:
“Brides…. When the dress no longer fits. When the food is gone, and your guests have drunk all the liquor. When the centerpieces are packed away or sold and there are people that are no longer with you….. You’ll have it all on the most priceless video. Spend the money. It’s worth double their price. I promise.”
