At Love Magic Films, I offer different styles of wedding videos to cater to my clients' preferences. Here are some of the styles that I offer:

  1. Cinematic: This style involves using creative camera angles, dramatic lighting, and music to create a cinematic experience that tells the story of your wedding day.
  2. Documentary: This style focuses on capturing the events of the day as they happen in a natural and unobtrusive way. It's like a visual documentary of your wedding day.
  3. Short-form: This style is a condensed version of the cinematic or documentary style, usually lasting 3 to 5 minutes. It's a great option for couples who want to share their wedding video on social media or watch it quickly.
  4. Traditional: This style is more traditional and formal, capturing the key moments of the day, such as the ceremony, speeches, and first dance.

At Love Magic Films, I work with my clients to understand their preferences and deliver a wedding video that reflects their unique style and personality.

Wedding teaser

A short one-minute teaser that can easily be shared online, such as Instagram and Facebook.

Wedding film highlights

A commemorative 6-8 minute video, perfect for sharing online. A videographer will film moments from the whole day including a special pre-ceremony message from both groom and bride. Great for weddings on a budget or to give copies to family and friends.

The Ceremony

A full-length, multi-angle film of the moment you become married, the Ceremony package allows you to re-live your wedding vows for years to come.

The Reception

A combined film of speeches and all the fun a reception brings, the Reception package lets you remember all the laughing, dancing and joy of your reception. Two videographers will immerse themselves in your celebrations, capturing intimate and entertaining moments to treasure.

The Wedding Moments

Longer than our Highlights package, the Wedding Moments package is a 4-6 minute film of the key parts of your wedding edited into a tidy film great for sharing with friends and family. Two videographers will capture moments from your preparation, ceremony, photography and reception and bring them to you in a beautiful keepsake of your day.

Our style is that of a romance novel, a middle, beginning and a conclusion. The only difference is unlike most videos we want our couple to watch their film over and over again. So we have three options. The first being a 7-10 minute cinematic masterpiece that includes music, audio snippets of the day and the best parts to create an emotional piece. 

From there we go to our secod package which includes 15-25 minute extended cinemastic highlights which is crafted with the assistance of the main vows and main speeches handcrafted to a selection of music. 

Finally our royal package which is similar to a documentary version which incapsulates all speeches, entire fist dance and everything that will give you that movie feeling. 

As with all of our packages we do film all day at no extra cost, thus maximising your time and gaining the best parts of every aspect of the day

A mastie rpiece crafted with the assistance of ceremony vows, main speeches, beautifully edited with 5-8 licensed songs. A true wonder that can be watched over and over again.

Most videographers these days are filming in a Cinematic Style which is the term given for videos filmed using modern DSLR Cameras as opposed to video cameras. For the editing of these videos you'll find popular styles include a Creative Short Film which is a 15 minute version, a highlights reel used mainly for social media sharing and long version typically viewed by close family on special occasions.

I think there are as many styles as there are weddings...

A good videographer is very adaptable and can show you what you want to see.  Do you want an elegant style, or lots of action or humour, classic, documentary, it's all in there and if you ask the right videographer they'll give you that in your video.  Watch a few wedding videos, I'm sure you'll quickly understand what kind of a style resonates with you!

Put simply it's kinda on a spectrum from  'Documentary' - A true adaptation of events in real time. To 'Artistic' - Use of cinematic, slow mo and graphic effects to make the film more emotive. Personal preference picks where on the spectrum you lay. ;)

There are many different styles of filming and editing a wedding video. At McLeish Film & Media we have a very documentary style way of capturing a wedding day. Our team like to be 'flies on the wall' at a wedding and ensure that what they are capturing is candid and natural. This allows us to get some beautiful footage of the day and one comment we always get from couples is "I didn't even see you filming that!" or "I'm so glad you go that on camera." 

The videos you receive with our service are:

Highlight Wedding Video: a highlight reel of the day which we like to think of as a 'trailer' of your wedding day (great for sharing on social media)

Feature Wedding Video: a documentary style video of the entire day told in chronological order of the events/formalities that played out at the wedding

Speeches Wedding Video: a video of all of the speeches from your reception edited together for your convenience
