Would you rather... have a videographer or a second photographer?

    We are having a second shooter already , I wish we could have a videographer too. My fiancee feels we don't need a video.
    I'd love to watch it back each year Smiley smile

    If we could do both we wish we could. To have a taping of our wedding and reception that would be great.But also think of the budget for the video. But the second photographer to could take photos that the main photographer didn't take. The main photographer could be with the bride & bridal party while the second photographer could be with the groom & groomsmen

    We already have 2 photographers one to go under water and one for the reception so I guess a videographer maybe one that could go underwater and video the ceremony with a live feed for people that do t scuba dive so they can watch.

    I would have liked a videographer for at least the ceremony.

    We actually have all of them! But the only reason we hired a Videographer is because all of our friends told us that the biggest regret they had from their wedding was not having one! The day flies by and this is a great way to relive it!

    That's a tough one. Personally, I would probably want to get a videographer.

    Videographer. I know our photographer would do good. We're lucky we were able to get both.
