Your Wedding Story (almost) in Real-Time

A same-day edit wedding video is a highlight film of the wedding day, edited and presented on the same day as the celebration. This special service has become increasingly popular as couples and guests enjoy the thrill of reliving the day’s most emotional moments before the night even ends.

As wedding videographers we’ve found that a same-day edit video allows everyone to feel part of a truly cinematic experience, bringing memories to life on the spot.

What is a same-day edit wedding video?

A same-day edit is a short film, about 2 minutes long, that highlights the most memorable moments of your day. It includes scenes such as the preparations, the vows and ring exchange, the cocktail, and the couple’s session. The video is edited and shown on the same day, usually in the evening, allowing the couple and guests to relive the best moments of the day together.

Important: How does a same-day edit work?

The same-day edit is a team effort. To ensure everything runs smoothly, we ask for:

  • Music: Please send us about three songs you would like to be used in the video.
  • Workspace: Please inform the venue that we will need a table and a chair to set up the laptop and start editing as soon as we arrive.
  • Projection: We bring our own projector, but it’s important to request a screen from the venue or the DJ for the projection. If the venue has its own projector, we can use it to simplify things.
  • Sound: The projection area must allow the projector to be connected to the DJ’s sound system so the video’s audio can be heard clearly.

Why choose a same-day edit wedding video?

A same-day edit adds a special touch to your wedding, creating an unforgettable experience for everyone.

Watching the day’s best moments come together in a beautifully crafted film, while the celebration is still unfolding, is an emotional and powerful experience. Guests love seeing highlights from parts of the day they may have missed, and it brings everyone closer to your story.

With carefully chosen music and cinematic shots, it feels like a mini-movie of your wedding, turning the event into a heartfelt narrative. For you as a couple, it’s a chance to relive your day from a new perspective and savor moments that might have passed in a blur.
