There is nothing quite as emotional—quite as transporting—as a wedding film.

There will be moments that you didn’t see, but we did! There will be memories that time will erase, but we captured forever. It's not just a nice to have, it’s a “must have” investment in your family’s history. MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

When you’re ready to book, a nominal retainer is required to reserve your date, however we don’t require full payment before the wedding. MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

Like with many wedding vendors, Video Excellence has a variety of package options for your wedding film. Our options allow us to align with your needs while also being mindful of your budget. And, you won’t need to ask... our pricing is available on our website! MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

Can video coverage time be extended? We shoot only one wedding a day so if you would like us to begin earlier or stay longer, not a problem... just let us know! MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

Video differs from photography in that we are not looking for poses. We want to capture genuine, emotion-filled, moments as they happen in a less intrusive style. We strive to blend in and never stop the action for posing. MyVideoExcellence.com

What's YOUR style? Our style is entirely dependent on what YOU want.

Cinematic:
Focusing on the romance of the day, it tells your story from a more artistic (non-chronological) point of view.

Storytelling:
Storytelling is very similar to cinematic, but features the chronological order of events.

Cinematic/Storytelling Blend:
When blended, cinematic tends to be the choice for the ceremony and other key moments, while the rest of the day is done in a storytelling format. Samples available upon request!

Short form:
Short form is a highlights reel that typically runs 3-5 minutes.

Wanna see samples? Just ask!

ARE THEY FULL TIME FILM MAKERS?
For more than 30 years, video production is ALL that we do! We’re readily available if you need to contact us for any reason. MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

WILL THERE BE A WIRELESS MIC FOR THE CEREMONY?
When it comes to video, sound is half of the whole. For the highest quality sound, we use a minimum of two resources, which include a lavalier (lapel) mic on the groom and a mic on the officiant’s podium. MyVideoExcellence.com

WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME FOR A FINISHED PRODUCT?
Video production is a long process and creating your masterpiece will take some time, especially during our busy season. Typically, our productions are completed in 60-90 days, depending upon the backlog... and your final payment isn’t due until the edit is complete! MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

There is nothing quite as emotional—quite as transporting—as video.

Prioritize a wedding film, rather than adding it on as an afterthought. Why? Your photos, wedding film, your dress and a copy of your invites to frame are typically the only tangible items that remain after your wedding.

A wedding film is the only item that will bring back the feeling and atmosphere of your wedding day as it immerses your senses with the moving imagery, the sounds, and the spoken words of the day. It’s an investment in your family’s history, so be sure to budget for it! MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

ARE DRONE PILOTS FAA CERTIFIED? Weather and venue permitting, drones can provide breathtaking aerial footage. The best time for drone coverage is prior to the start of the ceremony or during the cocktail hour. Our drone pilots are fully insured and FAA Part 107 certified (an exam that tests knowledge on drone regulations, laws and airspaces). MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

26/03/2024

WILL COVERAGE BEGIN AT THE PRE-CEREMONY PREPARATIONS?
There’s a lot of excitement happening before the two of you meet to say “I Do”. Although it’s not a requirement, covering the pre-ceremony preparations helps us tell the complete story of your wedding day. MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

HOW WILL MUSIC BE CHOSEN FOR OUR WEDDING FILM?
When it comes to using popular music in a wedding film (i.e., Spotify) , things get a bit tricky. Posting your highlights film on social media, using popular music that isn’t properly licensed, can result in you and the producer being heavily fined. That said, we utilize music licensing services, allowing you to share your wedding film on social media without any copyright issues. MyVideoExcellence.com

DO YOU OFFER A DISCOUNT FOR MILITARY/FIRST RESPONDERS?
Video Excellence respects the sacrifices that our military and first responders make for our country and deeply appreciates their service. We are pleased to offer a First Responders and Military discount to our couples. MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing

CAN WE GET THE RAW FOOTAGE?
For us, the short answer is yes. However, there are some common misconceptions and considerations with regard to raw footage.

Raw footage is not a longer cut with all the out takes. Your edited film is the best of multiple angles, highlighting the tangible details of the day and focusing on the emotional moments.

Raw footage is shot in HD which means the video file sizes are huge and split across multiple files, with external audio as a separate file. Multiple cameras are not synced and images are not color corrected.

In summary, raw footage may not be what you think it is. There won’t be a mountain of memories on the cutting room floor. The best of everything we shoot will be included in your finished product.

Food for thought: When price shopping for video, request a quote WITHOUT the raw footage.

DO YOU FILM OUR PREPARATIONS BEFORE THE CEREMONY?
We offer and encourage pre-wedding coverage, especially for the bride. It features some of the most exciting moments of her day. We typically film the Groom at the ceremony location, as he’s seen casually interacting with his groomsmen, prior to the ceremony. Coverage of pre-ceremony moments allow for a deeper connection, telling the most complete story of the day. MyVideoExcellence.com/pricing
