Thank you to all who helped me out on my last videographer post! I was able to find a couple options who offer full length videos in addition to shorter highlight films. We narrowed it down to two options, and we're trying to decide on which one to book. One option offers up to 4 hours in their packages (though additional hours can be added at a cost, which could change the cost significantly). The other one offers various packages of 6-12 hours.
My question is, how many hours would be sufficient for the videographer? 4 hours seems low, but I guess I don't know what a typical amount is. We are doing a first look about 2 hours before the ceremony, a short 15-20 minute ceremony, cocktail hour, and then the reception. I don't think they'd need to be there for the full reception - we aren't doing a grand exit or anything that they'd need to capture at the end, but I don't know how long into the reception I should book them for, since I would like some video of everyone dancing, etc. How many hours did you book your videographer for? Did they capture everything you wanted them to? How many hours would be sufficient?
