Save on your Wedding Day Video

Video isn’t just for the wedding day anymore. Brides are having a blast making fun of the silly (and sometimes ridiculous) things they’ve said and done during their wedding planning via Comedy Central-style roast videos. DIY video is also a great way for your guests to share the videos they take from their smartphones on your wedding day with you in order to create a custom wedding video. Combine guests videos with your own, or even a professional photographer if you have the budget to create one video you’ll be able to watch again and again.

If you can’t afford a professional videographer, there is another solution. Check out Storymix Media for weddings. They allow you to use the video function on your smartphones, or rent HD video cameras from them to capture your big day. Between you and your guests, you’ll have a ton of video to edit into a custom video after the big day. Before the wedding, have your guests download the mobile app on their phones (hint: put the link on your wedding website!), decide whether you need to rent any HD cameras in case your guests do not have smartphones and set aside some budget for custom editing services after the big day.
