DJ Sam: The vendors you hire all bring unique skills and talent sets to your event. Some couples toy with adding a videographer or filmmaker, assuming it’s an unnecessary cost, but we know it’s worth it.
DJ Sal Fusco: Having a professional wedding videographer is so key. They’re gonna catch all the details of the day that you may miss, and here’s why you should consider having a videographer.
DJ Sam: The top reasons is: reliving the day in [00:02:00] motion.
DJ Sal Fusco: Captures what you miss.
DJ Sam: It also preserves the voices and memories so you can go back and relive it.
DJ Sal Fusco: You could share the experience with family and friends.
DJ Sam: And it’s a professional storyteller, telling your story.

JR: This is the Stress-Free Wedding Planning Podcast with Sal and Sam.
DJ Sal Fusco: Photos capture those still moments, but video, it lets you actually see and hear the emotions of your vows, the laughter during speeches, the cheers when the dance floor opens up.
DJ Sam: You know, it’s the closest thing to actually being there again, reliving your wedding. You can literally feel [00:03:00] those butterflies again as you walk down the aisle or hear that crackling in the voice of your partner, when they say their vows. It hits differently when you can actually hear it.
DJ Sal Fusco: And the reactions. Your guests laughing, your parents tearing up. Your friends dancing like there’s no tomorrow.
DJ Sam: Exactly. It’s not just remembering your day, it’s experiencing it all over again. I guess that’s why some videographers call themselves filmmakers.
DJ Sal Fusco: Yes, Sam. That’s absolutely right. You can’t see everything. There’s no way. And now you have a video to remind you of everything that happened that day. Let’s be honest on your wedding day, you can’t be everywhere at once.
DJ Sam: So true, Sal. While you’re greeting guests or taking photos, your videographer or filmmaker is catching those moments you’ll never see.
DJ Sal Fusco: Like your flower girl dancing when no one’s watching, or your grandparents holding hands during the ceremony.
DJ Sam: Those little [00:04:00] behind the scenes details, they tell the full story of your day when it’s all put together with the right videographer or filmmaker.
DJ Sal Fusco: A great videographer gives you the complete picture, the parts you lived, and the parts you didn’t even realize were happening.

DJ Sal Fusco: Welcome back to our discussion why you should be booking a wedding videographer.
I’m Sal from After Hours Events of New England.
DJ Sam: I’m Sam from Atmosphere Productions.
DJ Sal: We’ve explained that hiring a videographer for your wedding helps capture what you miss and allows you to relive the day in motion.
And, this one always gets me, Sam, and that’s capturing the voices.
DJ Sam: Absolutely, photos freeze the image, but video [00:07:00] lets you hear your loved ones again. And if you get a filmmaker, you’re going to hear their laughter, their toasts, their stories, and the emotion of the day.
DJ Sal Fusco: Years from now, hearing your dad’s voice during the speech or your best friend’s joke from the reception, it means everything.
DJ Sam: Yeah, it’s not just about the nostalgia, it’s about preserving those people and those emotions so you can share them with future generations.
DJ Sal Fusco: Exactly Sam. A wedding film becomes a time capsule of love and family.
DJ Sam: Sharing the experience is important. I know I’ve told the story many times before about my daughter when she was younger, she would pick up our wedding video and put it into the VCR and just play it and watch family members that were here now or, uh, passed away. This is an experience that you are gonna pass on when you have a good filmmaker make something like this for you. It’s an experience that you [00:08:00] have to share.
DJ Sal Fusco: You know, that’s absolutely right Sam, and I gotta tell you, the great thing about having a video is to be able to feel that day all over again and remembering all the excitement and all the feelings you had, uh, going through that day.
DJ Sam: Definitely sharing the laughter and the fun, uh, across the country or even overseas. Nowadays you can get that video shared in a numerous different ways and then they can experience the laughter if they were not able to make the event.
DJ Sal Fusco: You know, Sam, one of the biggest regrets Vanessa and I have from our wedding is not having a videographer.
There are so many great moments that unfortunately, are gone forever. They’re only in our memory, and it would’ve been wonderful to be able to see them over and over again on a video.
DJ Sam: Sal, you’re a classic example of why you should get the video or have a filmmaker. So we encourage our clients to get that video, if you, can. Finally, this one’s a [00:09:00] huge one. Your videographer doesn’t just record your day.
DJ Sal Fusco: No, that’s not all they do. A videographer is gonna tell a story through the editing and the music. They turn your footage into something cinematic.
DJ Sam: It’s not just clips thrown together. A real filmmaker will capture those emotions and the rhythm of your wedding day, plus the behind the scenes.
DJ Sal Fusco: You get to see the story of you two unfold, like a movie starring your love and all the people who matter most.
DJ Sam: Exactly! Photos capture the snapshots of that moment, but video brings your wedding back to life.
DJ Sal Fusco: Honestly, it’s one of the best investments you can make for your memories.
DJ Sam: So true. So there you have it. Five great reasons to hire a wedding videographer or filmmaker, and make sure you don’t miss a single moment of your day.
DJ Sal Fusco: It’s one of those things that couples [00:10:00] over and over say to us, that they’re so happy that they went with a videographer because when the music fades and the night’s over your video is what brings it back to life.
DJ Sam: Exactly the laughter, the voices, the happy tears. It’s all there. A good videographer doesn’t just capture your day. They tell your story.
DJ Sal Fusco: And years from now, you’ll be able to hit play and feel those same emotions all over again. That’s priceless.
