A picture is worth a thousand words - A video is worth a thousand pictures

Why have a video of your wedding?
Or, if you want one, why hire a professional?

Many times, as I attend Wedding Fayres in my capacity as a Wedding video company, I hear people as they walk by my stand saying" we don't need a video, or we have someone who can film it for free, or as a wedding gift.
The average cost of a wedding these days seems to be around 7-10 thousand pounds, but the next morning when the couple wake up, what do they have for their money?
The dress, cars, reception are all gone, expensive fleeting moments that cannot be recaptured no matter how good ones memory is.
So there are the photographs. Maybe 50 - 100 from the photographer, and some from the guests, but what does that tell you of the day? Mute witness that can bring nothing of the actual day, just isolated pockets of the event.
Video, however, brings the day not just to the Bride and Groom and their families, but to many who could not actually attend the day itself, who can re-live time and time again the whole event.
I used to look at a Wedding video as an entity in itself, but over 25 years of film-making has taught me that what I am recording is a slice in the life of a collection of people who will never get together in the same way again.
Only after a good few years of filming have I realised just what an important thing the video has become to so many people. For the first time, our generation will be able to identify with past members of our families long after they are gone, not just as a picture in a frame.
Many letters and telephone conversations of Brides filmed decades ago thanking me for the Wedding video that after a time like the photos, was consigned to the drawer, only to re-surface when life had taken a way a loved family member or friend.
Many Brides have used us for their second weddings, and last year we had our first Bride who used us for a third time! While not advocating that this is the norm, it does show that out of all the things they did not want to remind them of the first time, we were often the only thing that the Bride insisted on having the same as before.
So why choose a  VideoServe Wedding Video DVD?
More than 25 years spent recording family history, and over 2,000 Brides, our highlights have been many, including the rehearsals for the wedding of the Duchess of York, filming Prince Charles and Princess Diana as well as many of the Royal Family have given us the ability to film just about anybody, anywhere.
My son Chris and I have travelled the world making travel films for major travel companies.
