How To Get A Great Wedding Video In Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide Or Sydney On A Budget? (Part 1)

You are off to a great start. You made the correct choice in adding your Wedding Videographer in Perth,WA to your list of wedding suppliers. Most brides reaction to a wedding video is: “ Wedding photos AND a wedding video? Isn’t it a bit of overkill?” What tends to get overlooked is that both are actually worlds apart in the way they capture your precious memories, yet completely compliment each other through the differences they represent.

Yes, a professional Wedding Videographer will cost you extra. Yes, you will need to get lots of wedding video pricelists and quotes; you will also need to go and view the work of a few videographers, as you would for your photos, BUT what do you get in return? Your memories of the day will already be fading by the next day! Humans are unfortunately just programmed like that. Did you get value for your money and your budget you set aside for your wedding video? You want to be able to re-live your wedding day again and again, the main difference between photos and a video in DVD format of your wedding day, is that you can watch the beautiful magic of your special day unfold before you in vivid living colour, rather than just captured in a still photo (as beautiful as they are), allowing you to recall before your very eyes all the things you had started to forget and also all the things you didn’t have the chance to see, as you weren’t able to be everywhere at once, with all the sounds, emotions and love for you, your family and friends to experience as often as you like just by pressing play!

You did a great job of landing the man of your dreams. Now how are you going to capture and remember your awesome wedding on a budget? Firstly, you found our website. We will help and guide you on how you can still have an amazing wedding video from a professional Wedding Videographer in Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide or even Sydney on a budget!

So you planned the whole wedding and then at the last minute you decided “ Let’s get a professional Wedding Videographer for a $1000 bucks or less!”  Unfortunately there is a huge difference in price range, starting from around $600 up to thousands. Keeping in mind you are on a strict budget for your wedding DVD.

Option 1

Can Uncle Vinnie record our wedding? NOOOO! Do not let your uncle near the wedding video. He might pull out his old JVC camcorder of 1992, he might even surprise you and have an 8mm High 8 video camera or even have a modern HD camera, but there are a some very major risks here for you as the bride. The first, never ask any family member to take your photos or wedding video, for if the end result is not what the bride expects (and it most probably won’t be) it can cause huge family tension. The second negative point is that your video or rather wedding DVD will be very shaky, with poor sound and have no editing. These are just a couple of problems you will more than likely be faced with by not using a professional within their craft.

Option 2

FYO: I was a bit shocked when I saw this option being listed and promoted. Film Your own wedding. This is where a few family and friends get their cameras and film your wedding for you. You as the bride then give all the footage to your editor to edit the footage for you. Keeping in mind that a great wedding production company like ours buys the same cameras so that we can make it easy to match the white balance and colour, just think how your video will look with 3 or 5 different camera models, tapes and recording formats, not to mention no HD. Keep in mind that a professional Wedding Videographer in Perth will use a cinematic quality.
