Don't make this mistake

Your wedding day is a collection of once-in-a-lifetime moments. The first look. The heartfelt vows. The wild dance floor celebrations. These are the moments that define your story, the ones you’ll want to relive for decades. But here’s the truth: without great photos or video, they exist only in memory.

When it comes to planning a wedding, it’s easy to think in terms of budgets—where to save, where to spend—but what if we talked about priorities instead?

Think About What Matters Most to You

For every couple, priorities look a little different. Maybe it’s the florals, the dress, or the venue. But one thing we always encourage couples to consider is this: what will last after your wedding day is over?

  • The flowers will eventually wilt.

  • The food will be enjoyed and forgotten.

  • The décor will be packed away.

But the photos and video? They’re what remain. They’re how you’ll share your story with your future kids or reminisce on anniversaries. They’re the only way to truly relive the emotion and joy of your wedding day—not just how it looked, but how it felt.

You Can’t Hit “Redo” on a Wedding Day

Here’s something we always remind couples: your wedding day is a one-time event. There are no second takes. And this is why we believe that when it comes to choosing your photographer and videographer, prioritizing quality over cost is so important.

It’s kind of like getting a tattoo. If you were getting ink to represent something meaningful in your life, would you choose the cheapest artist? Or would you find someone whose work you know you’ll love forever? Your wedding day is no different.

Sure, you can save money here and there, but this isn’t an area where you want to cut corners. Great photography and videography aren’t just services—they’re an investment in your memories.

It All Comes Back to the Story

If you think about it, so much of your wedding revolves around photography and videography.

  • The makeup and hair are there to ensure you feel and look incredible—in your photos and video.

  • You choose the perfect venue and details as a reflection of your love—captured forever in your photos and video.

  • Even the outfits you spend so much time finding? They’re preserved in every image and frame.

The photos and films bring everything together and allow you to experience your day again and again.

Choosing What Feels Right for You

We know every couple has a different vision for their day. Maybe florals are your thing, or perhaps the entertainment takes center stage. That’s totally okay! But if you know that being able to revisit your wedding through stunning photos and heartfelt films is important to you, make it a priority.

Your memories deserve to be captured with care, by someone who truly understands how much this day means to you. It’s not about ego; it’s about ensuring your love story is told in a way that feels authentic and beautiful to you.

Your Story Is Worth It

We understand the weight of this decision because we’ve been there with countless couples, documenting the laughter, tears, and unforgettable moments that make weddings so special. When you look back at your wedding day, we want you to smile, laugh, and maybe even cry a little—all because the memories were captured just the way you imagined.

If this resonates with you, let’s chat. Your wedding day deserves to be remembered forever.
