How to do CHEAP video?
Posted: Jan 7, 2011 7:17 PM

Me and my FH are on a $5,000 wedding budget and our videographer budget is $250. How can we do video of our wedding and reception for cheap? All of the video packages I have found here in Iowa are like at the least $500 and thats just for the ceremony.

Ask a friend to take video. Granted it's not going to be an edited video, BUT....

Dear Main,

Have you considered just eliminating video? You don't really have to have it at all.

On a limited budget, you really have to think about what is truly important to you and eliminate the fluff. For many people (me), a video would be fluff.

That's why I suggest if you want the ceremony on video, looking back I sort of wish we did even to watch it once - Ask a friend to do it.

You don't need anything edited or set to music.
