A Wedding Film Proposal

What you told me

Your day, in your words

You found us scrolling Instagram for ideas, and Elvis put our name forward too — which means a lot, because we’ve shared a lot of dance floors with him. With Elvis on the mic, DJ Johnny on the decks and George John on photos, your crew is already set up for a big night. We’re the film team that slots in alongside them.

What you asked for was simple: people you click with, who you can laugh with all day — because you spend more of the day with your vendors than with your guests. And a film that actually feels like the two of you.

A party, not a production

You got engaged in a downpour, dancing in a puddle with your closest family and friends — and that’s the energy you want again. So the film leans fun and lighthearted, not heavy or dramatic. Two people who don’t take themselves too seriously, having the best night of their lives.

“Home”, on the beat drop

Behind the curtain at Jones Bay Wharf, waiting for the TwinSick remix of “Home” to kick in — then walking into 600 people on their feet. We’ll have that moment covered from every side, and we’ll build your highlight around the same arc: gentle and sweet through the morning and the church, lifting into pure energy once the night starts.

Candid, not posed

You’re not photo people, and you don’t want the day to feel like a shoot. A bar in the city, a drink in hand, the two of you laughing — and then canapés spent mingling with your guests, not disappearing for more photos. We film what’s actually happening.

A big family and a tight church

Giuseppe’s family is a big one, and the family photos happen at the church — with another wedding due at 1:30. That turnover is where the day can feel rushed, so it’s where we plan hardest: the congratulations, the group shot on the steps, the family photos, and out the door on time.

The shape of the day

Flow of the day

Here’s the day as it stands — one you can hand straight to your mum when she asks what time everyone’s arriving. We refine it together closer to the day, in sync with George John, Elvis and your run sheet.

Reception

Doors open, your entrance to “Home”, formalities, then the dance floor through to the farewell
If the church lets you start at 11:00, the whole morning simply moves half an hour earlier — and that half hour goes straight into breathing room at the church and a longer photoshoot in the light. With six bridesmaids in the chair, we’ll build a hair-and-makeup buffer into the morning either way.

Final timings and locations are refined together as we get closer to the day.

Coverage

Why two videographers

You and Giuseppe get ready at the same time, in two different homes. So a second videographer in the morning isn’t an upgrade here — it’s the baseline: one with each of you, then both of us at the church. What changes between collections is how far that second videographer runs into the night.

Team 1 · John

With you all day

From the morning through to your walk-out at the end of the night (~12:00 AM). Four cameras at the church, placed to the sides and out of your way, so the whole mass is covered while I move for the moments — and locked-off cameras running through the reception alongside the handheld work.

Team 2 · The lever

How far into the night

The EssentialsSecond videographer through both mornings, the ceremony and the photoshoot, finishing after the reception entrances (~7:30 PM) — so walking in to “Home” is covered from two angles.
Your StoryStays on through the formalities (~9:30 PM) — speeches, cake and first dance each caught from a second handheld angle across a room of 600.
The Complete CollectionThe same reach as Your Story (~9:30 PM). What grows at the top is the film itself — the Extended Documentary, the Episode and a longer highlight.

The morning

Six bridesmaids in the hair and makeup chair is where mornings run late. We build in the buffer and keep an eye on the clock, so you’re in the car on time without anyone rushing you.

The half hour after church

Congratulations, the group shot on the steps, family photos, and out before the 1:30 wedding. We keep that moving — so you get to enjoy it instead of watching the time.

We don’t make the day longer — we make sure you’re present in the time you have. And with 600 guests in the room, a second handheld angle through the formalities genuinely earns its place, which is why Your Story is the collection we’d point you to.

Ways to relive your day

Your films

You mentioned you’ve never actually watched a wedding film — so here are real examples of each, to tap through. Yours will be shaped around your own people, your moments and your music.

01
The Excitement

Teaser Film

A 45–60 second clip, delivered within two weeks of the wedding. The first taste while it’s all still fresh. Included in every collection.

02
The Emotion

Highlight Film

The one you share. Yours starts slow and sweet through the morning and the church, then lifts with the music into the energy of the night — fun and lighthearted, with your songs chosen together at the creative session.

03
The Experience

Episode-Length Film

A 30–40 minute edit that sits between the highlight and the full documentary — the long story with the fast-forward parts pulled out. The vows, the bar, the entrance, the best of the speeches and the dance floor, paced like an episode you sit down and watch with family.

04
The Memories in Full

Documentary Film

The whole record — the full mass, every entrance, the speeches, the cake and the dances, kept at real length and edited across every camera angle. The one the kids watch in fifteen years.

Why the film matters

You experience your wedding three times

First

Before

In the planning — the timeline you can hand to your mum, the buffer for six bridesmaids, and the creative session where we settle your songs, “Home” included.

Then

The Day

As it happens — keeping time at the church so you’re not watching the clock, then letting you have the bar, the canapés and the dance floor while we quietly film all of it.

And

For Life

In the years after — the highlight you share now, and the full film you come back to when the kids want to see mum and dad walk in to “Home”.

Some moments reveal their value only with time.
