Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a luxury wedding film cost?
A luxury wedding film costs $5,000-$15,000 for a single-videographer cinematic package. Top-tier filmmakers with multiple camera operators charge $10,000-$25,000+.
What is the difference between a highlight film and a documentary film?
A highlight film is 3-5 minutes set to music for social sharing. A documentary film (30-60 minutes) captures the complete day with authentic audio. Most luxury couples get both for comprehensive coverage.
How many videographers do I need?
Most luxury weddings benefit from 2 videographers—one on the couple and one capturing guests and candid moments. Second shooter add-ons typically cost $800-$1,500.
How long does it take to receive a wedding film?
Standard turnaround is 6-12 weeks for a highlight film. Full documentary edits take 3-6 months. Rush edits are available for 20-40% extra. Ask about 48-72 hour teaser clips for social sharing.
What resolution should my wedding film be shot in?
4K is now standard for luxury wedding films, providing future-proof quality. 6K and 8K options exist for ultra-luxury productions. Request RAW footage retention for the highest quality master files.
