Will Your Wedding Vows be Captured on Video?

This is a common question and the simple answer is, yes, Yes, YES! This is a huge part of your day and future as a couple. Something couples look back on for years on their wedding video to hear those special words they first said to each other. So while the obvious answer to this question is an astounding YES, let me explain the process of capturing your vows and other special audio throughout the day.

Wedding Ceremony Audio

During the ceremony, we generally use three different sources to capture audio.

  • DJ Board: We have devices that plug directly into the DJ booth and capture all audio coming through the mic and speakers, including the vows, readings, etc.

  • Lav Mic: Since sometimes during the vows, you are not speaking directly into the DJ’s microphone, we will put a wireless lavaliere mic on the groom’s lapel. This is a discrete device that will assure backup audio during that intimate moment/

  • On-Camera Mic: The last way that audio is captured is from the camera’s shotgun microphone that will capture the audio in a more natural way, as your audience hears it.

All together these 3 methods assure you will get all perspectives of your special words to one another during the wedding ceremony. And as a side note, during the reception, these methods are also applicable to capture toasts, speeches and more!
