There are plenty of great shots and ideas for your wedding video. The usual shots include the couple getting ready, the walk down the aisle, the couples first dance and the cutting of the cake. These are great and will produce a wonderful wedding video. For the people that are looking for a little extra on their wedding day video below are some ideas.

1. Have a wedding trailer

A wedding trailer is small snippets of the full video. This would make it easier to share. A smaller video can be shared more easily. It would be easy to share with family and friends so they can keep a memento from the wedding. A wedding trailer is also great to have for when you want to see the video but don’t have time for the whole thing. The trailer will highlight the best moments letting you relive them in a shorter time.

2. Introduce the wedding party

Introduce the wedding party, have them be part of the video. They can share some funny stories from your past to make the video funny. Or they can share a loving story. The possibilities are endless and they can help set a tone for the wedding video depending on what you want. They can even comment on what is going on as things are happening.

3. Make it funny

Have some parts of the video be funny. Have some lighter bits that crack everyone up. Laughs are what people remember. It could also give a break from the rest of the big emotions and a respite.

4. Use mix media

Be as creative as you want in your wedding video, this can include using more than one art media. Include writing, painting, cloth, collages. Whatever you want. It can even be a stop motion portion with how you met, or the proposal. You can even use mixed media for your save the dates. Don’t be afraid to incorporate different modes of art that speak to you.
