Edinburgh Wedding Videographer

Modern, Vibrant, Cinematic Wedding Films

Photographs freeze a moment in time. A wedding film lets you relive the feeling.

It’s the difference between seeing a photo of a laugh and hearing the sound of that spontaneous laughter. A film brings your day back to life, capturing fleeting expressions, heartfelt vows, and genuine reactions that unfold in an instant.

Imagine, years from now, being able to:

  • Hear the raw emotion in your partner’s voice as they say their vows.
  • Listen to the joyous cheers of your guests during the speeches.
  • Watch the spontaneous, candid moments you might have missed.
  • Share the love and joy of your day with family who couldn’t be there, or with your future children.

As your videographers, we do more than just press record. We are storytellers who discreetly blend into your day, capturing the authentic flow and spirit of your celebration. We then expertly weave these moments into a beautifully curated film—a living family heirloom that grows more precious with every passing year.

Below are some of the stories we’ve had the honour of telling.

Real Moments, Cinematic Magic: Our Wedding Film Approach

Finding a video style that feels right for you can seem complex, but we make it simple. We don’t believe in forcing your day into a single “box.” Instead, we’ve built our approach by blending the very best of different videography styles to create a film that’s authentic, beautiful, and uniquely yours.

Here’s a look at the different elements we blend together to tell your story.

1. The Cinematic Style (For the “Wow” Moments)

This is where we create the magic. We use our artistic vision to craft parts of your day into a true feature film.

  • What we do: We use advanced camera techniques, beautiful shot composition, and evocative slow-motion. We then meticulously edit these sequences, weaving in audio from your vows or speeches and setting it all to a powerful musical score.
  • The result: This isn’t just a recording; it’s an emotionally powerful narrative. It’s the part of your film that feels grand and epic, capturing the deepest emotions of the day.

2. The Documentary Style (For the Real Moments)

A wedding isn’t a film set. For most of your day, you’ll barely even notice we’re there.

  • What we do: We act as discreet observers, capturing the raw, authentic moments as they naturally unfold. We won’t be staging or directing you.
  • The result: You get the genuine emotions, the spontaneous laughter, and the candid interactions. This style is all about realism and emotional honesty, capturing the true essence and atmosphere of your celebration.

3. The Traditional Style (For the “Must-Have” Moments)

We know you don’t want to miss a single second of the most important parts of your day.

  • What we do: We ensure we get full, comprehensive coverage of your main events. This includes your entire ceremony, all the speeches, and the key reception moments (like the first dance and cake cutting).
  • The result: You receive a valuable historical record of your day. While our cinematic film tells the story, this thorough approach ensures you can re-watch your full ceremony and re-listen to every speech for years to come.

How We Deliver Your Films

We combine all of these styles to give you a complete package:

  • Beautifully Edited Film: We provide comprehensive films, including your full ceremony and speeches, plus all the ‘best bits’ of everything else.
  • Breathtaking Aerials: To add that extra layer of production value, we love to integrate cutting-edge techniques like drone footage for stunning aerial views of you and your beautiful Edinburgh venue. Included as standard with every all-day booking.
  • The Highlight Reel: Available as an upgrade for all bookings, this is your concise, dynamic film, typically 5 to 15 minutes long. It encapsulates all the best moments and emotions, is set to music, and is perfect for sharing with friends and family.

Ultimately, our approach is flexible and built around you. We blend these techniques to create a wedding film that perfectly complements your vision.

Zoe and Billy – married at Dundas Castle, EdinburghZoe and Billy – married at Dundas Castle, Edinburghwouldn’t ever trust anyone else to capture our special celebrations and moments!

Jonathon and Claire are the loviest couple.. from our very first communication they made us feel special and were so interested in who we are as people! They tailored everything just for us, and had they not radiated such beauty and kindness, we wouldn’t have even known they were there… and for two people like us who HATE getting photos taken, we had a great time and felt so comfortable!

We got married on 31st December, and they gave up their own celebrations with their families to help us capture ours...

We truly hit the jackpot, and wouldn’t ever trust anyone else to capture our special celebrations and moments!

Please don’t pass up the opportunity on having these two look after your special day! Very trustworthy and fantastic value for money.

Our Simple, Stress-Free Process

Understanding the journey with us as your Edinburgh wedding videographer —from the initial consultation to the final delivery of your cherished film — ensures a smooth, collaborative experience.

Professional videographers follow a structured process designed to capture your day flawlessly and deliver a product that exceeds your expectations. Knowing what to anticipate at each stage allows you to prepare effectively and enjoy the anticipation.

The process typically begins with an Initial Consultation. This can be a virtual meeting or an in-person discussion where you share your wedding vision, discuss your desired style (cinematic, documentary, etc.), and outline your timeline.

The meeting is an excellent opportunity to discuss packages and answer any questions you may have. This is a crucial step for both parties to determine if there’s a good creative and personal fit.

Many top-tier Edinburgh wedding videographers are keen to get to know you as a couple during this stage.

Once you’ve made your decision, the next step involves the Contract and Deposit. Our formal contract will outline all agreed-upon services, deliverables, dates, pricing, payment schedule, and cancellation policies.

It’s imperative to read this document thoroughly before signing. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your wedding date, ensuring that we, as your videographer, commit our availability exclusively to you.

This is standard practice across the Edinburgh wedding videography industry and the UK.

As your wedding day approaches, expect Pre-wedding Communication and Planning. We will reach out for a more in-depth planning call or questionnaire to discuss the finer details of your day.

This includes creating a shot list, understanding the flow of events, identifying key family members and guests, and coordinating with other vendors, such as your photographer. This detailed preparation ensures the videographer is fully aware of all important moments and can capture them seamlessly without being intrusive.

On the Wedding Day itself, we will arrive well in advance to scout the locations and set up our equipment. We will operate discreetly, often working in tandem with your photographer to capture authentic moments without disrupting the natural flow of events.

Our professionalism will extend to our attire, conduct, and interaction with guests. Expect us to be present for the agreed-upon hours, capturing everything from the bridal preparations to the lively reception festivities, ensuring a comprehensive visual record.

Following the wedding, the extensive Post-Production Process begins. This is where the magic truly happens.

Hours of raw footage are meticulously reviewed, selected, and edited into a cohesive narrative. This includes colour grading, sound mixing, adding music (always with your input), and crafting transitions.

This stage is highly skilled and time-consuming, explaining the typical turnaround times. Finally, you will receive your completed Film Delivery.

This comes as a beautifully presented online private web page, ready for you to relive and share your timeless wedding film. From your web page, you can stream, download and share your video with family and friends. The typical delivery timeframe ranges from 8 to 24 weeks, depending on the film’s complexity and the videographer’s workload.

Throughout this entire journey, open communication with your videographer is key to ensuring your complete satisfaction.

Finding Your Perfect Match: Our 4-Step Checklist

We know that choosing your wedding videographer is a huge decision. You’re not just booking a supplier; you’re trusting someone to capture your most important memories and be there with you on the day.

To help you find the perfect fit, here is the simple, 4-step checklist we’d follow.

1. Do You Genuinely Love Their Films?

This is the most important step. When you watch a videographer’s portfolio, how does it make you feel?

  • Look for emotional consistency. Do their films make you smile? Do you feel a connection to the couples?
  • Listen for the quality. Is the audio crystal-clear? Can you hear the vows and the laughter, or is it drowned out by music?
  • Watch the editing. Does the story flow beautifully? Does it look seamless and professional, even in tricky lighting (like a dark church or a candlelit reception)?

We pour our hearts into our storytelling, ensuring every film is not only beautiful to watch but crystal-clear to listen to.

2. What Do Other Couples Say? (The Real Feedback)

Reviews are your window into the real experience. Look for feedback that answers these key questions:

  • Were they professional and easy to work with?
  • Did they blend in? This is a big one. You want videographers who feel like friendly guests, not an intrusive film crew.
  • Did they love the final film?

We are so proud that our couples consistently highlight not just the final film, but how at ease and happy they felt with us on the day.

“From the very first contact we had with Claire and Jonathon we felt relaxed and in safe hands. They were responsive and open with us from the start. I’d already fallen in love with their videos (crying at other people’s weddings) so it was an easy decision to go with them for my own wedding. We prioritised a video over photos and I’m so glad we did. We got the package which includes the highlight video so we have feature length (for anniversary watching!) and a brilliant highlight video that we’ve loved sharing with family and friends. I really loved that we could pick all the music for it. It makes it so much more personal. On the wedding day Claire and Jonathan went with our flow and captured so many beautiful moments that we will treasure forever. We were sad to say goodbye when they left the wedding! Thank you so much Claire and Jonathan. We 100% recommend Love Wedding Photos and Film.”

3. Do You “Click” on the Consultation?

This is the “vibe check,” and it’s essential. You will be spending your entire wedding day with this person.

  • When you chat, does it feel easy and natural?
  • Are they really listening to your plans?
  • Are they genuinely excited about your vision?

Our first chat is our favourite part. It’s not a sales pitch. It’s our chance to hear your story, find out what matters most to you, and see if we’re the perfect fit. We want you to feel 100% comfortable and excited after talking with us.

4. Are They a True Professional? (The “Peace of Mind” Check)

This is the “boring” stuff that is absolutely critical for a stress-free experience. A true professional will be transparent about all of it.

  • Contracts: Do they have a clear, professional contract that protects you both?
  • Insurance: Are they fully insured for both liability and their equipment?
  • Transparency: Are their packages and pricing clear, with no hidden fees?
  • Backup Plans: What happens if a camera fails? (We always carry backup gear!)

We believe in 100% transparency. We are fully insured, our contracts are straightforward, and our packages are clear. This professional foundation means you can relax and just enjoy your day, knowing we have everything covered.

Edinburgh Wedding Videography FAQs

How much does an Edinburgh wedding videographer cost?

Our wedding videography packages start from £895. Most couples invest £1,995 for a full-day cinematic film, with drone footage and highlights edit included.

Do you offer A Combined Photography And wedding videography Edinburgh Package?

Yes – we’re a full-time in-house team offering both services. That means your photos and film will have the same style, energy and storytelling from one creative team.

Can we have drone footage in our wedding film?

Definitely! We’re fully licensed drone operators and love capturing sweeping aerial views of your venue and surroundings, weather and permissions permitting.

How long is the finished wedding video?

Our full-length films are typically 30–60 minutes, edited with care to tell the story of your day. We also offer highlight reels and social-media-friendly trailers.

How long does it take to receive our completed video after the wedding?

The turnaround time for a completed wedding video varies significantly among videographers and depends on the complexity of the editing process. Typically, you can expect to receive your film between 8 and 24 weeks after your wedding day. We will specify an ETA for delivery shortly after your wedding.

How far in advance should we book a wedding videographer in Edinburgh?

It is highly recommended to book your Edinburgh wedding videographer as soon as you have confirmed your wedding date and venue, ideally 12 to 18 months in advance. Popular videographers, especially during peak wedding seasons, get booked very quickly. Early booking ensures you secure your preferred professional and reduces stress closer to the day.

What’s the difference between a highlight film and a full-length wedding video?

A highlight film is a concise, artistically edited summary of your wedding day, typically 3-10 minutes long, set to music and focusing on the most emotional and visually striking moments. A full-length wedding video, on the other hand, is a much longer, comprehensive documentary of the day, often including full ceremony footage, speeches, and extended reception highlights, providing a more detailed record of the events.

Can we choose the music for our wedding film?

Yes. We encourage you to choose your favourite eight songs, and we’ll use these as the perfect personalised backing track to your video. We provide advice on music selection and how to share your choices with us.
