There are several wedding vendors that I particularly admire, and in particular, wedding videography is probably one of my most favourite. Over the years, videography has become an expense that most care not to spend when planning their big day, but I say "STOP!" Here are my 3 main reasons why:

1. Videography brings the story of your day and the beginning of your marriage to life - I often find that wedding days are a whirl of activity for everyone involved. Special moments, like the jokes your dad cracks in his speech, delicate moments of intimacy between you and your hubby, and the look on his face when you walk down the aisle, are all things that photography can capture, but with a video become all more real.

2. Over the years wedding Videography has turned into something of a work of art. I have attached three videos that are some of my personal favourites that display how amazing some of these weddings are, despite how simple and understated they may be. There are so many amazing videos that can be found on Vimeo, that sometimes when I need a pick me up I just head on over and take a look at some videos. Gone are the days of tacky home videos, and now you can document your day with someone that sees the bigger picture of love, warmth and community.

3. It becomes a keepsake for years to come! Whether your wedding is glamorous or is a hippie shindig in the back yard, it is important to have something to share with your family, friends, and children for years to come. Think of it this way: Having something to show your future children in years to come is amazing because it shows the foundation of love and trust that they were built on, the community that wrapped around you and your partner then, and most importantly still does to that day. There is something special about sitting down and sharing a finely crafted film that summarizes the beginning of your amazing marriage together.

I could go on and on and on about why you should consider videography for your big day, but spend a couple of minutes and watch these unique wedding videos, and let them speak for themselves.

Have a fabulous weekend loves!
