How the Feature Film Looks
So you may be wondering what we mean by "Feature film"
...So here's a breakdown of the different parts of it, just so it makes a bit more sense.
THE OPENING SEQUENCE
So Part 1 is the opening sequence, this is given as a separate video file as well. This is basically like your dramatic highlights, it's all the best bits, introducing the key people of the day, the key moments, getting you in the mood to watch the film basically.
The Song will match the vibe of the day, some are really upbeat and fun, whilst some are slow and romantic. It just depends on what the vibe is of you two as a couple and of your day.
THE MORNING
From here we'll typically go to the morning prep, so this is either from bridal prep, or if you are setting anything up in the morning, following with that happening, getting the natural banter that will happen.
​
Throughout this there will be natural gaps for me to borrow people to ask them some questions so you get those messages from your loved ones.
THE CEREMONY
So now it's the moment it's all been building up to. Though this can sometimes be the quickest part of the day.
If you have people giving readings we'll mic them up too so they're nice and clear. Typically we'll stay with the groom and can then pan to see the bride walking in whilst capturing the groom's reaction.
​
We like to be up there at the aisle with you so we capture the facial expressions but are happy to stand far back if you'd prefer. The main thing is about mic'ing you up so we can hear your voices say "I do"
COCKTAIL HOUR
So once your ceremony is finished, its time for cocktail hour, this may start with the confetti walk or possibly include it later on. Throughout this we'll just mingle and get some shots of people just chatting, but then also either interview several people...OR!
if you have a bit of a...confident, sure of themself person, we can give them a handheld microphone and have them go round interrogating people for cute or funny messages.
​
We'll then end with some shots of you two having some time together before we head over to the speeches
THE MIDDLE POINT
Depending on if the speeches are before or after food, this will typically be our break time..and just so happens to be a natural mid point in the film. So maybe pause and go get a drink fill up before the speeches & dancing.
THE SPEECHES
Now back to it, it's time for the speeches. This is usually the part which is unedited as you'll just want to hear the speeches from start to finish. We'll put a mic on everyone who will be talking so that wherever they decide to stand up and give their speech...you'll still hear them
RECEPTION
Think of this as cocktail hour 2.0 ... essentially everyone will be a bit more tipsy. They may be lethargic from all the food...but it's another chance to interview people. Plus you may have evening guests show up, so new faces !
​
Sometimes you may have people take part in a heated game of croquet outside...who knows!
CAKE & SHAKE
Time to cut the cake, then have your romantic first dance which we then transition into a fun dance video montage of everyone shaking their booty. Which then transitions into the end credits. Basically a fun music video of everyone dancing to celebrate the wedding!
END CREDITS / POST CREDITS
So this is where we'll roll the credits just as a thank you to everyone who's come and been a part of your special day. You can leave a cute message for anyone who's watching. And whilst that's rolling we'll have some fun clips or moments that didn't quite make it in the main film playing.

and if you're a marvel fan we can even throw in a post - credits scene if you want to (let's chat)
