Absolutely! We're obsessed with this style as well as shooting on old super 8 film cameras as it makes the process so much fun! It's relatively simple to turn digital footage into the old VHS style but it definitely helps if your videographers have an old camcorder to make it as authentic as possible. If it's something you're genuinely interested in, it's definitely worth asking your video team if it's achievable!

Yes and we can include live audio snippets like a home video. Talk to the camera candidly and create a memory for each other.

The style of wedding is depend on brides and groom. Video editing can make the HD videos looks like 90s.

Absolutely, we can! 90s home video vibes are totally doable — think handheld camcorder feel, soft glitches, a bit of grain, and that nostalgic warmth. We’ll make it feel like a time capsule (in the best way). Let me know if you’ve got any specific inspo or footage you love, and we’ll build the style from there.

Excited already!

Yep, every video supplier could create a 90s-style video for you! And they'd probably find it fun! Some characteristics of the style:

-- Single camera (rather than multiple cameras getting different angles).

-- Shoulder-mounted. So, it's a bit shaky.

-- Single zoom lens. Whereas many people these days go for no zooming at all.

-- On-camera lighting.

-- Often, in-camera audio and interviews with guests, while most people these days lean towards less natural audio (except for speeches, etc).

-- The actual image is worse quality in a few ways. For instance, it's lower resolution, it's grainier in low light, it's interlaced rather than progressive, and it has lower dynamic range. But this is all part of the retro charm. And all this stuff are things any video editor can recreate during the edit using filters and other tricks.

So, if you genuinely like this look, you could pretty much ask any video company to do it for you, even low budget ones. Just show them the sort of thing you have in mind. For instance, the first thing I think of is the home video section of Notting HIll. Specify how long you want the video to be. Then ask them for a custom quote as opposed to just going by one of their regular packages. Very likely, it takes less work to produce such a thing than what they're used to producing, because editing was a lot trickier and therefore more minimal in the '90s with videotape rather than digital files.

As a bonus, ask them if they actually own or are willing to purchase a camera from the '90s. And as a bonus bonus, ask them if they actually filmed weddings during the '90s!

Higher-priced companies will tend to differentiate themselves by camera quality, multiple camera operators, drones, etc, but you don't need all that stuff.

Absolutely! This is actually one of our favourite things to do.

All of our packages include real handycam footage, filmed on actual cameras from the late 90s and early 2000s. It gives your film that raw, nostalgic, home-video feel like something out of a family memory box. We don’t just use it for a quick flashback either, we weave it through your film with care, to add warmth, personality, and a beautiful contrast to the polished cinematic shots.

You’ll also get the full handycam footage on its own easy-to-watch timeline. It’s perfect for kicking back on the couch and reliving all the little unscripted moments like the behind closed door moments, the inside jokes, the classic dance floor chaos and endless more!
