For Weddings in Ireland.

The term videographer's is one that is of quite recent origins, however it is one that is probably obsolete as video has almost been superseded by CD and DVD

There is absolutely no doubt that digital capture of your wedding is a good investment.. When you first view your video you will be surprised at how much of what went on you actually missed, after all you can't be everywhere, nor of course can the camera but an experienced operator will capture your special day and present it in a charming way enabling you to show it to a generation as yet unborn.

Send Your Guests A Copy.

These video's can be put on a CD, which can be easily and cheaply copied by most home PC's, Ask your Videographerabout this. You could even consider sending a copy to your guest's along with the thank you note. And of course to friends or relations who for reason of distance or infirmity were unable to attend the wedding. I'm quite sure your stationer could come up with a beautiful presentation case for your CD if you decide on this option.

Decide On A Style.

As with all wedding vendors the best way to find a Videographer is by recommendation, if any of your friends or work mates have recently been married, this is a good place to start. If you can borrow a copy of their video and view it with your family, this will enable you to make some decisions as to the type of coverage you will require. And to access the competency of the operator.

Check With Venue's.

Some houses of worship forbid video or flash photography.

The Rehearsal.

It is best if your Videographer can attend the wedding rehearsal, this enables him to pick the best camera angles, saying this digital capture technology has advanced considerably, today the camera doesn't need to be in your face to get good results. Another important advantage of attending the rehearsal would be to meet and establish a friendly relationship with the officiate and the principal members of the wedding party. As with most things it is easier for all concerned if they don't feel they are dealing with strangers, particularly so with photography with which the majority of people are perhaps just a little uncomfortable.

How Much Will It Cost.

As with all things you get what you pay for. A Videographer has a considerable capital expenditure in equipment. He will spend the whole of your wedding day working hard to ensure that your video is of the highest standards, as well as this he will probably attend the rehearsal, and he also has to spend a considerable time editing the material he has taken, to produce the final video. So naturally all this will be reflected in the final cost. Expect to pay in excess of £1000 for a top quality video. Click here to view our list of videographers.
