    When I started I posted my own wedding film on You and Your Wedding forums and ended up getting a few brides wanting me to film theirs...now I run my own company! Sometimes it takes a bit of research and luck, I happened to be trained in film and TV and just loved editing my own wedding so a lot of my Brides-who still stay in touch now-love that they found me. If I spot any one I will let you know! xx

    On another site someone was saying that price was only for a few hours (maybe 5 but don't quote me) and you had to pay extra for filming the bride in the morning etc. I film both the bride and groom in the morning right through to after the first dance as standard. When I was planning it grated on my a little when there were all these secret charges so I try to make mine seem clearer etc.

    I think sometimes someone starting out who has lots of event experience or even their own wedding experience is a good idea but there's always the danger of something going wrong as they haven't shot a wedding before. I literally didn't sleep the night before my first wedding! Thankfully they came back to me and thanked me for all my heard work and patience. It turned out the Husband wasn't too impressed with the photos for the amount of money they spent and are so pleased they went for a video as it's brought all the emotions of the day back for them. I'm glad you're not dismissing it entirely as a video can be an amazing way to relive your day and I'm saying that from a Bride's perspective. I just love our film and I cry every time I watch it, the music, the smiles, even seeing my Husband wink and wipe a tear away from my eye in the service....it brings it all back Smiley smile

    I am looking for a videographer as well but like you did not budget for it initially. Did you find anyone? Mine is only in 6 weeks as well so notice is short! EEEEEK

    Thank you
