  Package Description
 
I. Gold Package: $1,995
  • Ceremony and Reception:
    Three-Camera Coverage

  • 3 Angles Professionally and Artistically Edited into One Video

  • 20 Custom DVDs with Chapters, Interactive Menus, and Custom Cases

  • Slideshow with Photos and Music of Your Choice
This package includes three-camera HD video coverage, which means that you will have three different views, or “angles” that will be included into the edited DVD.

Typically, one camera gives a view of the entire church facing the altar, usually positioned from a balcony. The second camera gives a much closer view from the front, or from behind the altar (facing the bride and groom). Finally, the third camera follows the action with full close-ups.

This package gives the best coverage of the event. Also, 20 highly-customized DVDs (a $500 value) are included in this package.
 
II. Silver Package: $1,495
  • Ceremony and Reception:
    Two-Camera Coverage

  • 2 Angles Professionally and Artistically Edited into One Video

  • 10 Custom DVDs with Chapters, Interactive Menus, and Custom Cases

  • Slideshow with Photos and Music of Your Choice

The Silver Package uses two HD video cameras. One camera covers the action in a wider, stationary shot, while the second camera follows the action with close-ups.

This package gives good coverage of the event, but does not give quite as full of a coverage of the wedding as does the Gold Package.

Includes 10 highly-customized DVDs.

 
III. Bronze Package: $995
  • Ceremony and Reception:
    One-Camera Coverage*

  • 5 Custom DVDs with Chapters, Interactive Menus, and Custom Cases

  • Slideshow with Photos and Music of Your Choice

The Bronze Package uses one HD video camera. The single HD camera follows the action through both close-ups and wide shots, interwoven by smooth zooming and panning.

As with all three packages, the Bronze is very high-quality work, but unlike the other two, this package is limited in the breadth of the coverage, with two fewer camera angles than the Gold and one fewer than the Silver Package.

5 highly-customized DVDs are delivered with this package.

*A second camera is used in production as a safety, but the delivered DVDs will primarily include only one camera angle.
Additional DVDs may be requested at $25 per copy.



Add $100 to any of the packages above for an additional copy of your
wedding in an iPod-ready format. Share your memories with your friends
and family on your video iPod or iPod nano while on the go!

DVD Formats We Offer

Currently, we offer standard-definition (SD) DVDs rather than Blu-Ray Discs that can support the full high-definition (HD) format. You may be wondering, Why do we bother to shoot in
HD with such good cameras if we currently offer only SD DVDs to our clients? The
answer is simple: Footage shot in HD and then downgraded to SD will always
look significantly better than footage shot in SD that goes straight to SD. In
addition, once the Blu-ray Disc format becomes more standard and more of
our clients own Blu-ray Disc players and HD TVs, we will begin to offer the same footage of your event in the full-resolution HD Blu-ray format.

So in short, your DVD will look better-than-normal on normal DVD players, and you'll be able to purchase Blu-ray discs of the same video in the future. Most production companies cannot afford to archive the footage of all their clients, so our offer to retain your media until Blue-ray becomes standard is an offer that is hard to come by.
