Blog / Dallas Wedding Videographers – Why should you even hire a videographer?

You’ll Spend $27,800 On Your Wedding, But Will Anyone Remember What Happened?

More and more couples are beginning to discover how important a wedding video is to them. When your kids begin asking questions they always want to know things like, “What did Grandma sound like?” “What do you used to look like?” “What happened at your wedding?” And because it is very hard to showcase someone’s personality or mannerisms with photography, a wedding video is truly the best way to showcase the memories of your big day with future generations to come.

Facts:

Memories You Don’t Want To Forget

Over and over, the majority of brides who have surveyed indicate that they cannot remember who was at their wedding and what they even did at their wedding. Most girls report being in a “state of marital bliss.” Essentially they were there, but they couldn’t tell you anything about it. With hundreds of guests all wanting to say hello and to congratulate you the feelings of being overwhelmed are very real for most brides. Don’t miss out on your own big day by not having a wedding videographer.

1.The  Toasts – Remember their sincerity, their statements, their shameless attempts at humor and your reaction to it all.

“I had my wedding last month, and I regret not getting a videographer. I thought pictures would be enough and most people don’t watch their videos anyway, but your wedding goes by so fast and you miss a lot of things. Plus, I feel like I was in a blissful daze for a lot of it and would love to have the important things captured in video. Pictures just don’t capture everything.” – JDechen

2. The Vows – Capture the anticipation  and the joy of the moment

“I did not think I would be so excited to watch our wedding video, but the day went by so quickly! I want to see our ceremony and cocktail hour, which I missed. Though I may only watch it a few times, I think it was worth the money.” – foozzle

3. The Grand Introduction – Relive the celebration of the moment and the energy of your friends & family

“While we are very pleased with our photographer, I’m now starting to have second thoughts about not having a videographer. I guess there’s nothing like having a video to capture the details, people’s faces/expressions, our vows — things that I might miss during the day as a busy bride and that don’t necessarily get captured in even the best quality photos.”

5. The Guest Interviews – Showcase their personalities, share their stories and remember who was there

           

“I was really worried that I might regret not having a videographer — not only to capture my fiance and me, but mostly our family members. I know it’s kind of morbid, but I know they won’t be around forever and I wanted to capture their voices and mannerisms.”
