We would hope you’ll want to look back fondly on this momentous day (after a much-needed honeymoon, of course)!
Biggest Mistake Couples Make When Hiring a Wedding Videographer in Melbourne, FL
Our videography team in Melbourne has seen thousands of weddings combined. And when it’s all said and done, we still hear from couples about how they would do things differently or the planning mistakes they wish they could go back and correct. Simply put, the biggest mistake couples admit is that they did not hire a professional videographer with wedding experience in Florida to capture their wedding day. If you have high expectations for your final wedding video, not hiring a wedding videographer with experience (or not hiring one at all) can be a regrettable choice.
Family Favor
Sometimes friends or family members are recruited or nominate themselves to film the day. They maybe offer to save you money by filling in for a professional videographer. This is a kind gesture. But if they’ve never filmed a wedding, or have little experience with professional cameras, we suggest they should focus on simply enjoying your big day! While some of their raw videos can be entertaining and capture viewpoints from someone close to the couple. It may not produce the correct type of footage needed for a high-quality highlight reel you find professionals creating in the wedding industry. Plus, if they miss out on capturing your first kiss or film the vows out-of-focus. This favor is not worth the guilt they might feel in letting you down.
What Kind of Music Will Be Used?
Knowing if you want an emotional tone to your wedding video. Or an upbeat one is helpful for the videographer! If you happen to be super interested in knowing the type of music played in your wedding video. It’s great to check with your videographer to see where they find music with no copyright on it. It might not hurt to check what the cost would be to have copyrighted music in your wedding video as well if you’re particular about a song and still want to share the video publicly.
