Video Opinions

Hi Ladies-

Even though I swore up and down i didn't want a video b/c of the intrusive nature of a camera guy following me around with a big spotlight all night, I think I've changed my mind. I'm looking for something very low key (no baby picture montage etc) that can record the ceremony and some of the reception and oh yeah, that won't charge me an arm and a leg. Any suggestions???

Try Bellarino Productions, I am using them and very excited! They offer different packages and may even design a package that suits your needs. BTW, most video companies now are unobtrusive, no bright lights, wires, huge cameras, etc.

Good luck!

I agree with Octbride on Bellarino. I am using them too. I think Phil & Kate are both wonderful people to deal with. If you have any questions, just ask OctBride or myself.

I'm with Jennbaby, Wild Rose!!! I didn't want any baby montage or cartoons or anyone being obtrusive. Marie and Bill are really nice people and their work is outstanding...it's something you really need to see.

I would say Bellarino. Phil and Kate are great people to work with. Very accomodating.

Re: Video Opinions

Would someone mind FM me with any price info? I really don't want to spend more than $1500 - is this unreasonable?

Another vote for Wild Rose. Dont know their current price list but just email Marie. They will try to work something out with you.

Jenny - i was the same about video - I swore I would NEVER EVER get one. But honestly you barely notice the cameras the day of the wedding and im so happy I have footage of our wedding.

Bellarino was the most reasonably priced yet still quality work I found in my travels.

Re: Video Opinions

I was on the same boat you are on! I didn't want a video but then people convinced me I would regret it. Needless to say I too wanted a low key, not expensive vieographer. After a horrible experience with another vendor (that i won't even expand on!) we went with BELLARINO. Phil over there is great!
