Is a camcorder wedding video worth it?

For some couples, absolutely. For others, no. Here is the honest version.

It is worth it if

  • You care more about how the night felt than a perfect ceremony record.
  • Your friends are the kind who will take the camera and run.
  • You want something to post within days, not months.

Skip it if

  • You need every word of the vows with clean audio.
  • Your venue restricts handheld cameras.
  • Nobody in your group wants to start the camera.

Questions to ask before booking

We answer all three in writing before booking.

  • What are the damage and deposit terms?
  • Is raw footage available?
  • When does the camera ship and when is it due back?
