Wedding camcorder rental

Your guests film the weekend on a real camcorder, and we cut it into a short film you’ll actually rewatch. Kits ship anywhere in the US. In Colorado, add one of our shooters for the vows and toasts.

Why a camcorder

The parts of the wedding nobody hired anyone to film.

Your photographer works the edges of the room. A camcorder passed between friends ends up in the middle of the dance floor, at the table during the toasts, in the getting-ready suite, and in the car to the after-party.

The footage has the warm, slightly soft look of a home movie, which is exactly why couples love it. It feels like your wedding, not a commercial for it.

  • Full-weekend coverage. Welcome drinks through Sunday brunch.
  • Two angles if you want them. One camera per side of the wedding party.
  • Everything kept. An edited film plus every raw clip.

Questions

How does a wedding camcorder rental work?

We ship a charged camcorder kit about three days before your wedding. Guests pass it around all weekend, you drop the prepaid box at UPS afterward, and we edit the footage into a short film and send it with every raw clip.

Will guests actually film?

Yes. Most people have never held a camcorder and want to try it. We include a card with shot ideas, and couples often name one friend per table as the camcorder keeper.

Should we book a kit or a shooter?

A kit captures the candid side of the weekend from your guests. A shooter makes sure the vows, toasts, and first dance are filmed with clean audio. Shooter, Full Day includes both.

Do you ship to destination weddings?

Kits ship anywhere in the US. Add extra rental days at $25 each so the kit arrives early and travels with you.

How long until we get our film?

About three weeks after we receive the kit back, or about ten days with a rush edit.
