Hey there, lovebirds! It’s 2025 here in the North East of England, and you’re getting hitched soon.
Congrats! But hold up, have you thought about how you want to capture your big day?
No, we’re not talking about your cousin’s shaky iPhone footage.
We’re talking about the real deal – a wedding film that’ll make you laugh, cry, and relive every epic moment.
There are a good number of different styles with Content Creation currently trending.
So if you don’t understand what that actually is, or if you should be cinematic, let’s break down the different styles shall we
Cinematic Wedding Films
Picture this: sweeping drone shots, slow-motion walks down the aisle, and dramatic music that’ll give you goosebumps. That’s the most popular, the cinematic style. It’s all about those visually stunning shots that make your wedding look like a Hollywood blockbuster. But here’s the thing – sometimes, those picture-perfect moments aren’t so perfect in real life.
Cinematic films are usually planned, scripted and staged. If turning your wedding day into a modern day film set with a director interrupting every big moment to get that shot again is your thing, then good luck with that, we’re sure you will have the perfect wedding film.
Documentary Style
On the flip side, this style is all about keeping it real. No posed shots, no interruptions, no fake smiles, just raw, authentic moments captured as they happen stress free. It’s like having a ninja storyteller following you around, capturing every laugh, tear, and dance move. The end result? A wedding film that’s as unique as you are – nobody else will have a film like it.
Storytelling Videography
Now, this is where the magic happens. Storytelling is all about blending the best of both worlds – the visual wow-factor of cinematic and the authentic feels of documentary. It’s about crafting a narrative that showcases your love story in a way that’s both beautiful and real. Think of it like an emotional 30-minute blockbuster rom-com, but with you both starring as headliners.
Content Creation
Okay, let’s be real. In 2025, social media is still a thing. And while we’re all about capturing those Insta-worthy moments, we believe that your wedding film should be more than just a highlight reel. That’s where content creators comes in – it’s about capturing the essence of your day in a way that’s very fast, shareable and meaningful.
Or the alternative is just to ask all your family members and guests to share their photos and videos with you afterwards.
