I want a highlight film, do you do that?
​
About 15 years ago, wedding films went from cheesy home videos to blockbuster movie trailers. Almost any videographer you book will be making you a highlight film. This is normally 4-6 minutes of the very best moments of your day.
Like a movie trailer, it's often not in chronological order, instead it is a beautiful artistic interpretation of your day,; weaving together the best parts of the vows, speeches, getting ready moments, dancing, and of course, the first kiss.
​
These are the films you will most likely see on social media. We are big fans, but being a married man myself (this is Oliver writing), I also put a lot of value on creating a second film, that we here at Muskoka Wild and Free call The Wedding Documentary.

What is a Wedding Documentary?
​
It's the time-capsule your future self is begging for :)
A wedding documentary is a chronological film of your wedding day. The documentary allows you to see a lot more of what your videographer captured on your wedding day. A typical wedding documentary is as follows ;
​
The one hour wedding documentary (approximate) usually follows this format.
​
- 3-4 minute; Montage of getting ready (approx one song length - this is extra stuff that maybe didn't make the highlight video)
- 30 minutes / 1 hour; Full ceremony (x3 camera angles, high quality audio)
- 3-4 minute; Montage of photo session (in between moments, jokes, laughing, fun moments)
- 2-4 minutes; Reception Grand Entrance + First Dance
- 30 minutes; Speeches in their entirety (x3 camera angles, one on the podium, reaction cam of bride and groom, one roving camera for other candid reaction moments)
- 2-3 minute; Montage of cake cutting, dancing, or any other end of the night moments
