Video or no video?

Video or no video?

Does anyone regret not having a videographer? Does anyone who did have one feel it wasn't worth it? We're not sure if it would be worth it, but I don't want to make the wrong decision! We booked photo already, so we're looking for a good deal on video if we have it at all.

I was thinking the same thing and then my friend that just got married told me the night goes so fast its nice to see a video after to see everything and re-live the moment.

Other brides I've talked to who didn't get video regretted it. I say if you have the money do it. There's so many things that can happen that you might not get to see on the day and it would be nice to be able to re - live your special day again and again

We initially said we didn't need it... Then I started watching other girls' highlight reels and talked to other brides who didn't have one who said they regretted it from the minute their wedding was over because they missed so much that they'll never see. So we figured it out with the budget and did it. You don't have to spend thousands to have a nice video! We're booked with Jessica from capture the moment all the prices are on their website and you can see some recent highlight reels on her vimeo..

I was very torn on a video. And then I realized that id regret it more if I didn't get it than if I got it and watched it a few times

I feel like a lot of people have told me they regretted not getting a videographer. Video was important to us and we never considered not getting it. I just feel like it's priceless to be able to watch that footage years from now.

You're NEVER going to look back and say, why did we capture the best day of our lives on video? I'm so mad we have this.

There are SO many options out there for affordable video. You will never regret doing it but you might regret not.

Our best friends got married three years ago and two weeks after their wedding, a close friend of ours who was in the bridal party died unexpectedly. A year later, the grooms father passed away. He was almost in tears trying to convince us that we need to get video for our wedding and how nice it is that he can watch his wedding video and see our friend and his dad again.

FH and I discussed this issue several times and we agreed to have one. Simple because there as much planning for the big day and then the day of it goes so quickly. We thought it would be nice to get to replay our special day and get to see some things we might have missed. Also for when the time we have children they can see their mom and dad :)

I've always been a no for video, but now I'm really trying to see if it'll fit into our budget. The more I watch these highlight reels, the more I want video of my wedding.
