Wedding Video: Sabrine and Soli

In the last three years we have really taken the wedding video industry and modified it to our own standards. First, with offering services that did not include hourly rates, then by offering reasonable prices, and never charging for additional equipment that we need to capture your day properly. In other words... if we give you a price, you will not have to fear us coming up to you a couple hours into your reception to get you to sing a contract agreeing to pay us to be there for another three hours because our original contract only speciifed 8 hours. To be honest, I find myself at weddings for 12 hours or more far more frequently than not. I arranged my packages this way because I treat customers as I want to be treated. Sabrine and Soli are a fantastic couple and Sabrine was the first bride to ask me to do a same day wedding highlight video. At that point when she asked me, I had not done them previously so I went back and figured out the logistics of a process that I felt would work. It didn't work (though fortunately this was a dry-run and not a real wedding). Realizing the mistakes made and the areas in the process that did not work, I went back with new plans of attack and am proud to say we have worked out a process that will allow me to provide a same day wedding highlight video that is available within a couple of hours into the reception. This is an extreme "wow" factor for party guests as most are completely stunned that not only do we edit this together and show it, but the effects and style we use spare nothing from the quality we employ for the final video which arrives later. Sabrine had some very creative ideas in what she wanted to do for her reception which was out Hs Lordships in Berkeley, CA. First, she wanted at the beginning of the reception, right after the gran entrance to start dancing immediately to their first song. They happened to have a DVD with the music video on it and I had that set up to start playing as soon as they came in the door. So the guests were enjoying a music video on a huge projection screen AND the couple's first dance at the same time. After the first dance, she wanted to have a video camera projecting the images of the bridal party dancing on the same large screen. We accomodated that also. Additionally, later in the evening we showed a photo-montage and the same day wedding highlight video I had finished almost 1 hour ahead of schedule. This extra stuff must have cost a lot, right? Nope. We did not charge Sabrine one extra penny for all the additional features at her reception. The reason why is because we were already there, with our equipment, and completely set up to do everything she was asking for. So, true to my conviction to not gouge customers, we did it at no charge. Hs Lordships Restaraunt More to come on how our season is going this year.
