Jake Newby Productions has 5 reasons why you should hire a wedding videographer for your wedding. There’s no question that one of the biggest regrets brides have from their wedding day is not hiring a videographer. Wedding videography is one component of a wedding that couples don’t realize they need until it’s too late. Below are 5 reasons why you absolutely need to hire a videographer for your wedding.
Understanding the Mediums
One thing that’s really important to understand is that photography and videography are two VERY different mediums. While photography is wonderful for capturing details from your day and special moments, being able to actually see yourself walking down the aisle or reading your vows to your spouse is something only video can capture. Having a medium that captures sound and visuals is a completely different, yet as effective, way to remembering your wedding day as photos.
You’ll Miss A Lot
Trust me, your wedding day goes by a lot quicker than you think. There’s no doubt that there are going to be things from your big day that you will miss. Guess what? Video won’t. Having a videographer at your wedding will allow you to go back and watch every part of your wedding day over and over again. You might miss your parents dancing while you’re taking a selfie with old friends. But a videographer can capture these moments on video, and allow you to watch them as though you were really there, and see even more moments than you were able to on your wedding day.
A Wedding Film Is Invaluable
I get it, weddings are expensive. After all the expenses start to add up, you might start questioning if you really need a wedding videographer or not. Keep in mind that the only two things you’ll have from your wedding day once it’s finished is photos and video. You can’t really put a price tag on being able to see your parents, grandparents, friends, and family all together celebrating you and your new spouse. Don’t be afraid to spend enough to hire someone who is good at what they do. A small investment now into the right videographer will leave you with the ability to re-watch the happiest moments of your life, forever.
Share Ability
In the social media world that we live in now, couples want a wedding film that they can post to Facebook, YouTube, or Instagram to show all of their friends and family. Having a wedding video that you can easily share is the best way to reconnect with all the people that came to your wedding day to celebrate with you!
Audio! Audio! Audio!
I know audio has already been mentioned in this article, but I want to emphasize how important it actually is. 25 years from now you are going to want to be able to watch your Best Man and Maid of Honor give speeches about you. In addition to the speeches, there’s nothing quite like hearing the audio from your wedding ceremony, especially if you are reading your own vows. You’ll be able to hear all of the emotions and passion in your voice as well as audience reactions and cheering!
