Usually the first reason people will consider making a DIY wedding video is because it’s a cheaper alternative to hiring a professional. It’s no wonder – the cost of hiring a pro have skyrocketed in recent years, to the point that it’s often one of the most expensive costs of a wedding.
DIY videography is a great way to save money.
An overlooked benefit of a DIY wedding video – the end result is a more personal video, that captures the essence of the day. Professional videos may feature fancy drone footage and blockbuster-worthy shots, which you’d struggle to capture doing it yourself. However by doing it yourself – and having your friends take care of the filming – you will often capture more candid moments. Friends are more likely to be themselves around each other than they are with someone they don’t know!
Thanks to our service, it’s easy! All you need to do is create your account, assign some friends as the main Filmers, and order one of our Highlight videos.
We’ll automatically send the Filmers some guidance for their role ahead of your wedding, and a link to add their videos the day after. Simple!
Here’s some examples of the fun and unique DIY wedding videos we have created in the past for some happy couples.
