Have you ever watched a movie and suddenly realized halfway through that there’s a huge twist no one warned you about? Yeah, not fun. Before the wedding, get the real scoop from the couple. Think of it like you’re getting the script to their love story. 💌 Is the groom planning to bust out a surprise dance? Is the bride rocking a family heirloom? These little details are like gold dust—when you know them in advance, you’ll be ready to catch those breathtaking moments as they unfold, naturally. ✨
Oh, and don’t forget the venue! Some places (ahem churches!) have rules that could throw a curveball. But hey, no stress! With the right lens and a quick plan, you’ll capture the love without missing a beat. 🎥

Here’s the thing about weddings: they start super slow (hair, makeup, relaxed vibes), and then—WHOOSH!—it’s like someone hit fast-forward. One second it’s the ceremony, the next it’s cake-cutting and first dances, and everything’s flying by! 💨 So here’s the tip: stay light on your feet. Pack only what you need—just a couple of lenses, extra batteries (always!), memory cards, and a lightweight tripod or stabilizer. That way, when the action speeds up, you’ll be ready to capture every heartfelt glance and spontaneous moment like a pro. 📸💫
Imagine watching the “I do’s” and… silence. No sound. Just lips moving. 🙀 Yikes. Audio is the secret sauce that can make or break a wedding video, so don’t let it slip through the cracks! Clip a lav mic on the groom or officiant to catch those crystal-clear vows and all the happy tears. And trust me—have a backup mic in your toolkit, because the last thing you want is to miss out on the emotional speeches or that epic ring exchange! 🎤💍
Sure, you’re there for the classic shots—first kiss, first dance, bouquet toss—but don’t just hit record and go through the motions. Bring your own sparkle! 🌟 Find a fresh angle, zoom in on the bride’s crinkly-eyed laugh or the way the groom’s hand shakes just a tiny bit during the vows. These aren’t just any moments, they’re their moments, and it’s your job to make each one feel one-of-a-kind. 💖

Shaky footage? Hard pass. Whether it’s a tripod for the ceremony or a glidecam for those swooping shots of the reception, keep things smooth and dreamy. But don’t be afraid to move with the couple! Those candid, in-motion shots are where the real magic happens. Think of their love like a dance—capturing it in motion is where the video moves from “just a video” to a piece of art that’ll make them feel it all over again. 💫
