What Determines the Price of Your Wedding Video?

  • Experience: Shooters who have been doing this for years generally come at a higher price but also provide peace of mind that your videographer will be well-prepared for your wedding.

  • Equipment: Cameras, lighting, audio equipment costs money and the value of that equipment can range from $1000-$10,000+ including multiple cameras, professional lenses, drones and more.

  • Availability: Some videographers like to cover weddings weekly, others monthly. The less availability will drive costs up but also assure that your videographer will have plenty of time allotted to your project.

  • Hours of Coverage: This is obvious. Most packages are around 10 hours but if more or less time is needed, price will change.

  • Inclusions: Covering your day is only a small portion of your wedding video price. The brunt of the work will come on the editing side. So the amount of final cut versions will play a role on the cost of your wedding video.

At I Do Video, we do our best of offer competitive wedding video prices, while maintaining a quality product.

5 Year Anniversary

Video is my passion. From flying my drone on a vacation to capturing a #GerardiParty, a camera is an extension of who I am and I use film to tell my story.

So when I covered my first wedding 5 years ago, it felt completely natural. Being able to capture such special moments and share them with my clients was something I knew I wanted to continue to do.

Still, I never thought it could grow to what it has become today. For that growth, I think my clients who have given me the opportunity to do what I love. 5 years in and their satisfaction is what inspires me to continue to do better, for many years to come!

Hiring a Destination Wedding Videographer

So you're getting married! Even better, you're planning a destination wedding! Congrats, this will be the most memorable experience of your life! But finding vendors at that tropical destination may not be easy. While some resorts and locations may offer a destination wedding video, you may not want to settle for that. Lucky for you, wedding videographers love to travel to tropical destinations too! So when hiring a destination wedding videographer, make sure to consider all your options!

Get the Best Destination Wedding Videographer

The benefit of hiring a travel videographer (ie one that is not local to your location) is that you are getting the best; someone that truly understands the essence of a wedding video and has the experience to back it up. Most local wedding videographers are not at the professional level as someone from the USA who does this for a living week in and week out. Another downfall of a local vendor is they will not generally have the professional level of equipment. Don't settle for convenience by hiring a local vendor and explore the pros of having a destination wedding videographer join you for your trip!
