Affordable Videographer Needed

Kimberly, on February 8, 2011 at 11:17 AM Posted in Planning 0 10

I'm looking for an affordable videographer for ceremony coverage only. I do not have a huge budget for this, but its hard to decipher through all of the vendors on the site...any recommendations?

    I don't know most videographers that will do a ceremony only. That blocks off their entire day- and it's not worth it to them economically. Set-up takes alot of time, and hassle- so they won't be cheap.

    Maybe consider having a few different friends just videotape the ceremony (or set up 4-5 cameras to get different angles), and have someone with some experience (even a friend) edit the videos together. It won't be professional quality, but it won't be professional price either.

    Here are a few -

    http://www.atreasuredwedding.com/ - $850 for ceremony & reception

    http://www.thomasbowenfilms.com/pricing.html $995 for ceremony & reception

    I would strongly recommend going to a wedding show and seeing a few people there. Most will give discounts for couples from the wedding show and will negotiate with you. I will also ask my cousin who is getting married in Baltimore and see who they are using.

    @Kimberly we had an amazing day!! @Meghan is right on with only doing the ceremony. If you really want it done by a professional your best bet might be to find a combo photography/vidography package. I think my photographer does that (she is in Springfield, VA). If you would like her info please feel free to send me a PM

    I'm not sure where in Maryland you're looking for but maybe this will help?

    I just did a 50 mile radius search. If you log in to your account you can create a post that'll let you name your budget & get quotes. I hope this helps? It's definitely been helpful for me!

    Why limit yourself to just the reception when you can have video from the whole day (and day before!)?

    I'm trying not to be spammy here, so my main point is to get footage from somewhere. We didn't get any from our wedding and it is the biggest regret we have.

    You can use our Flip Wedding product to capture and enjoy everything with Flip cams we provide and our Apple Pro Certified edited 20 minute highlight video. Check it out at: http://weddings.storymixmedia.com/flipwedding.html. Prices start at only $99!

    A pro is the best option, but if it isn't in the cards for you we'd love to be a part of your big day. Let us know if you have any questions.
