Questions to ask your wedding videographer before booking.

Booking a wedding videographer is an important decision that can have a big impact on your wedding day and your memories of it. Before you book a videographer, here are some important questions to ask:

  1. What is your style of videography? Different videographers have different styles, so it's important to make sure their style matches your vision. Some videographers may specialize in documentary-style videos, while others may focus on cinematic or artistic styles. Ask to see examples of their work to get a better sense of their style.

  2. What is included in your wedding videography packages? Make sure to ask about what is included in the wedding videography package. Do they offer multiple camera angles, drone footage, or a second videographer? Are there any additional costs for editing or post-production?

  3. What is your experience in wedding videography? Experience matters when it comes to wedding videography. Ask how many weddings they have filmed, and if they have any references or testimonials from past clients.

  4. Do you have backup equipment? It's important to make sure your videographer has backup equipment in case of any technical issues or equipment failure. Ask about their backup equipment plan and how they ensure that they are always prepared for any unforeseen circumstances.

  5. What is your process for editing and delivering the final video? Ask about their editing process and timeline for delivering the final video. Do they provide a highlight reel, full-length video, or both? How long does it typically take for them to complete the editing process and deliver the final video?

  6. What is your availability on my wedding date? Make sure to ask if the videographer is available on your wedding date. If they are not available, ask if they can recommend any other videographers with a similar style and quality.

  7. What is your pricing and payment schedule? Ask about their pricing and payment schedule. Do they require a deposit or full payment upfront? Are there any additional costs or fees that you should be aware of?

Asking these questions before booking your wedding videographer can help ensure that you find a videographer who is the right fit for you and your wedding day. It can also help prevent any misunderstandings or surprises down the line.
