Rehearsal Dinner Video: Why It Can Make Your Wedding Film Unforgettable

October 2, 2015 Blog, Wedding Films

Don’t Overlook Your Rehearsal Dinner!

This pre-wedding tradition is often the first time that many of the important people in the bride and groom’s lives are all together.

It’s a time to celebrate the couple, reflect on their lives, and make memorable speeches.

Since these moments are so unique and may not happen again, Allure Films urges all couples to consider having the rehearsal dinner professionally filmed!

Why A Rehearsal Dinner With Help Create Your Perfect Wedding Film:

  • Guests are in their element at the rehearsal dinner, since it is not as formal as the wedding reception, so people giving speeches are much more comfortable.
  • Rehearsal dinners are much smaller than the reception, which makes the evening more intimate. Speaking among close family and friends is different from speaking to a large room full of guests which allows for more candid moments to be caught on film.
  • This is one of the only occasions that couples will have close friends and family share stories about them specifically.
  • The rehearsal dinner is consistently the most emotive and joyful occasion for the couple. The night can be full laughter as well as beautiful tears, which are unforgettable moments that can be reflected in your wedding story.
  • The dinner is a great opportunity for our videography team to build rapport with your family and friends so that on your wedding day, everyone is comfortable.

The Start of a Story: Bridal Party Preparation

September 24, 2015 Blog, Wedding Films

Bridal Prep - Wedding Day VideoThe story of your big day doesn’t begin when you walk down the aisle.

In fact, your wedding day story begins much earlier – in the bridal suite (and groom’s suite), closest friends & family by your side, enjoying every moment as you get ready for the most memorable day of your life!

The intimate moments shared are a once in a lifetime experience that you will always remember.

Why not have Allure Films include these in your wedding day video?

Precious memories like sharing mimosas with your closest friends, seeing your hair and makeup for the first time, or finally tying up that wedding dress after months of anticipation – all are moments that happen well before you say your “I Do’s”.

Groom Prep - Wedding Day VideoBridal Prep Coverage from Allure Films includes memorable highlights of the bride preparing for the ceremony (think behind-the-scenes style footage).

This usually includes the bride having her hair and makeup done, the bridesmaids helping in the preparations, followed by the finishing touches to the dress and the jewelry.

Don’t think the groom is forgotten during this time! Depending on your wedding time and location, the groom may have the option to be filmed as well.

Filming the groom’s face as he practices his vows, fixes his tie, and receives some last-second advice from dad are also moments that look great on video.

Check out a brief example of what Bridal Party Coverage might add to your complete wedding day video!

Unforgettable Memories: Share Your Love Story Through Video

September 17, 2015 Blog

Every Love Story Is Unique – Especially Yours.

Engagement Story VideoMaybe it’s the exciting tale of how you and your fiancé first met.

Or perhaps it is the romantic, one-of-a-kind way in which he proposed to you.

Now you have an innovative way to capture a living, moving memory of your journey leading up to the rest of your life as husband and wife!

Two of the most exciting additions available in wedding videography today are the Love Story and Engagement Story.

A Love Story is a short clip that captures the true essence of the couple and tells a well-rounded story through video and music. The film is shot at a location of your choice and often includes an interview session.

Similarly, the Engagement Story gives you and your fiancé the chance to narrate the details of how he popped the question interspersed with scenes of you candidly enjoying a day together.

Check out Brittany and Rob’s Love Story! 

This couple chose to use their film as an intro to their wedding video, but there are many other fun and creative ways to incorporate it into your big day!

Some couples use the footage to create video Save-The-Dates or feature it on their wedding website. The most popular option is to premiere the film at the rehearsal dinner or at the wedding reception.

Sharing this video with your guests could be the highlight of your celebration!

Let Your Vows Be Heard! Capturing Perfect Audio At Your Wedding

February 27, 2015 Blog

Capturing audio on wedding videoIt’s amazing how distinct sounds can spark a flood of memories.

Your favorite song or the sound of a loved one’s voice can trigger an avalanche of smiles and tears of joy as you reminisce on happy moments.

At Allure Films, we understand this better than most. That’s why we take special care when capturing the sights and sounds of your wedding.

Filming your vows, toasts from your loved ones, and the music you dance the night away to are all important aspects of documenting your big day.

How can we be certain we’ve captured the perfect audio to accompany the excellent footage?

First, and foremost, we always record with multiple recorders. Technology has come a long way, but we all have experienced times where our electronics have failed us. When capturing your special day, it’s important to always have back up recorders.

Although our cameras have microphones built in, we rarely use the audio from the camera itself. With at least 3 different devices recording at each wedding, we have plenty of options to choose from when selecting the best quality audio for your video.

Using so many pieces at once also provides an added sense of security. It’s always best to have a backup plan, so if one microphone fails, we’re still guaranteed to never miss a moment recording your big day.

One of our favorite pieces of equipment that we use is a lavalier microphone, which is pinned to the groom’s tuxedo. Having a microphone front and center ensures that every last whisper of your vows is recorded for you and your loved ones to cherish for generations to come.

Our team at Allure Films takes pride in our attention to detail. From the music you walk down the aisle to all the way up to the last “I Love You” of the night, you can be sure that we’ve captured all of the best moments from your special day.

If you’re looking for an expert team to capture the best moments of your wedding or upcoming special event, we’re here for you!
