Every couple wants their wedding video to be unique and different. With the full length wedding video, the trend is to have other short videos that are created using different styles. These videos are usually shared as no one these days has the time to watch the full length wedding video. Usually multiple styles of wedding videos are produced which are used for various purposes like sharing the video online or burning a DVD and sending it to the guest with a thank you note.
The styles of the videos that can be created should be discussed before the wedding so that the videography has the equipment needed for shooting the wedding videos. Usually, these short videos have music in the background which, if possible, should be chosen before the wedding.
