'08-er seeking advice from the wise been there done that -07-ers

I know this is awkward to discuss, but what range of $$ did you guys book with your photographers and videographers?? Starting that process. I am hearing from my '08-ers that they are in the $4-$6 range depending on # of photographers, etc...any help would be great...thanks...congrats girls...Us '08-ers are soooooo jealous!!

It will be your turn soon enough!

The range you mentioned sounds about right from what I've seen on here

For both about $5,000. It will wind up being more after. We took the least expensive package my photographer offered and I will upgrade my album after the wedding to save on our up-front costs. HTH!

your range is about right but were paying a bit more than that for video and photos. This can really all depend on your package and the company you go with. I would say when we went to meetings with different companies we got qoutes between 6,000-12,000 for both video and photo. Good Luck with your search.

$1500 for two photographers and possibly an assistant all day, all pics edited and delivered on disc, no albums.
$1000 for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception music, with intelligent lights.

Book early, and you have a lot more time to negotiate!

That seems about right..

I paid far less than that, but I shopped around and Im not getting all the extras that a lot of the 07 brides are getting

I got a package for photos and video for $4,000. That includes three parent albums and the growing up, dating, and honeymoon photos on the video. We have one photographer, an assistant, and a videographer.
