Retro Wedding with Modern Flavor

The style of wedding video recording has changed many times in recent years. In 2020, the tradition of shooting and editing wedding videos has changed dramatically and was even unrecognizable. The strongest trend in 2020 was for the wedding video to be shot entirely as an independent film.

An interesting way to recreate the best moments of your wedding day, which means a lot to the couple.

Journalistic Style

In 2020, the tendency for some couples to have their wedding video in a “documentary” style became more and more established.

Editing on the same day is a great pleasure and shows the “great moments”, but it can be expensive and not affordable for everyone because it is done by at least three videographers.

Receiving the Film Same Day

Why wait for your wedding film for days, if not weeks? The tendency for the newlyweds to receive their wedding shots, edited on the same day, is becoming more and more popular.
