My fiancé and I have been back and fourth regarding a videographer. I would love one, but we already spent $4,500 for a really amazing photographer (worth every penny).

We also want to honeymoon to Bora Bora which is not cheap and we need to cutback somewhere, the only thing I can find we can really cut back is the videographer. Thoughts?

    I'm not. We splurged on my dream photographer (around $4800 *gulp*) and I just didn't even considering a videographer. I don't think I'd watch it more than 1x annually.

    I’m not! Not in budget and I really despise seeing myself on video lol No regrets and I doubt I will. FH is the same.

    You're not the only one. We're not doing videographer or professional photographer.

    I'm no either. But I am considering something like WeddingMix so we have some sort of video.

    We're not hiring a videographer either- we felt a photographer was enough.

    We're not getting one. It would be nice, but it's an expense we just can't afford. We'd rather spend the money on something else like food or drinks

    I didn’t have a videographer, no regrets. We set up a camera on a tripod in the back to capture important moments

    We debated a videographer. We really didn’t want to spend the extra money. Luckily, my brother-in-law reached out and asked us if he could videotape for us. He really wouldn’t know many of the guests and didn’t want to be stuck standing around awkwardly having to mingle. Of course we took him up on his offer, as his video editing skills are fairly decent, and hey, some video is always better than none if you have the option!
