Wedding Videography and Photography Packages in Connecticut
Hire one team for videography and photography. A combined package is planned together, so the gallery and the video feel complete and the day runs smoothly.
Discuss wedding coverage
Share your date, venue and the coverage you want. We will talk through scope and put a quote in writing after we speak.
One team for your whole wedding story
Your day deserves more than coverage. It deserves a team that works in sync, expects moments before they happen and captures them from more than one angle.
Hiring separate vendors for video and photo can lead to style mismatches, timeline miscommunication and extra stress. One team for both can give you:
- Coordinated coverage
- Video and photos with a matching look
- A smoother wedding timeline
- One point of contact
- Consistent quality
- A single approach to your story
What a full-day video and photo package can include
Every wedding is different, so we build the package around yours. A full-day package is the starting point many couples ask about. Items can include the following, and exactly what is included is confirmed in your quote.
- Full-day photography coverage
- Full-day videography coverage
- More than one camera angle at key moments
- Dedicated photographers and dedicated videographers working as one team
- Drone footage, where weather and the venue permit
- A highlight video
- A gallery of edited photos
- A short social media teaser video
- The ceremony and speeches recorded in full
How wedding videography and photography packages are staffed
When you ask for videography and photography wedding packages from us, the team has dedicated photographers and dedicated videographers, with one or more of each. A photographer photographs and a videographer records. No one switches roles during the day, because each job needs full attention.
That staffing is part of how we plan. We start with the whole story of your wedding, then look at the functions and people involved, then choose the moments that matter, and finally decide what each output is for. We do not promise to film or photograph everything. We aim for broad coverage and intentional focus.

Optional add-ons: guest wishes, engagement and save the date video
Some couples add pieces around the wedding day. Guest interviews recorded alongside event coverage need a minimum of two videographers, one for the interviews and one for the event, because photographers do not count toward that minimum. Interview-only coverage is scoped differently.
An engagement film or a save the date video can be planned from the same recording day, ahead of the wedding. See our guest wishes and interview videos, engagement video production and save the date video production pages for details.
Why bundling can work better than separate vendors
The benefit of booking video and photo together is coordination, not only equipment. When one company handles both, the plan is shared from the start.
- Both sides plan the timeline together
- The timeline is built around creative flow
- Portraits and video clips match in look
- The ceremony and first look are covered from multiple viewpoints
- There is no conflict between what the videographer and photographer need
Multi-camera coverage, audio and light
Key moments from several angles
The first look, vows, entrances, speeches and dances can be covered from more than one position so the moments that matter to you are covered with care.
Light and sound
We use lighting and direct audio capture where the setting calls for it, so footage looks clean and speeches are clear.
Venue planning
We talk to your venue and planner before the day so the plan fits the space.
Choose the parts you want delivered separately
Every couple values different parts of the day. If you want something delivered on its own, tell us and we will plan for it.
- Ceremony
- Highlight video
- Speeches
- Dances
- Introductions
- First look
- Cake cutting
- Bouquet toss
- Send-offs
- Anything else that is specific to you
How to choose your wedding videographer and photographer
It helps to work with people who match your energy. Before you book, we offer a conversation, in person or by phone, to understand your vision and see whether we are a good fit.
From booking to the wedding day we stay in touch with you, the venue and your planner so the plan fits your day.
Wedding video packages in Connecticut
Wedding video packages in Connecticut can be built around video only or around video and photo together. Video-only coverage puts the vows, speeches and movement of the day first. A combined plan adds dedicated photographers who work from the same timeline as the videographers, so the two teams do not compete for the same moment.
Most couples comparing wedding packages in Connecticut are really deciding who will be in the room, what they will record and what they will receive afterward. We describe those choices below without prices, and confirm hours, people and deliverables in your written quote.
Coverage options, described without prices
Use these to think about the shape of your coverage before asking for quotes. None has a price or fixed hours here. Scope, hours and deliverables are confirmed in your written quote.
Video only
Suits couples who want to hear the day and see it move. You gain recorded vows and speeches. Watch for having few stills for frames and albums.
Photo only
Suits couples who want a gallery and prints. You gain full attention on stills. Watch for moments, such as vows, that a photograph cannot hold.
Video and photo from one team
Suits couples who want one plan and one contact. You gain a shared timeline and matching look, with dedicated videographers and dedicated photographers. Watch for how the team handles moments that overlap.
Video and photo from separate vendors
Suits couples who already love a specific videographer and photographer. You gain freedom to choose each. Watch for timeline conflicts and who coordinates between them.
A smaller ceremony and portraits option
Suits an elopement or intimate wedding. You gain focused coverage of key moments. Watch for what is left out, such as getting ready or a send-off, and decide that on purpose.
Guest best wishes and interviews alongside event coverage
A guest wishes video lets the people who love you speak to you in their own words. Most of what guests share is heartfelt: how they met you, a memory they have kept, what they see in the two of you, and what they wish for your years ahead. We use gentle, open prompts so guests can answer at their own pace, and a light question can be added if your family wants one.
When guest interviews are recorded alongside event coverage, the plan requires a minimum of two videographers. One focuses on the interviews while the other stays with the ceremony, toasts and dancing. Photographers do not count toward that minimum. Interviews on their own, without event coverage, are scoped differently.
- A quiet, planned location with decent light and little background noise.
- A timing window, such as cocktail hour, chosen with you so guests are relaxed.
- Private guest preferences respected: guests who would rather not be on camera are not asked, and you decide how the interviews are shared.
- A short list of people you especially want to hear from, plus an open invitation to others.
Optional custom videography and photography deliverables
These are options to discuss, not automatic inclusions. Each one is scoped, confirmed in your written quote and planned into the timeline, and none comes with a fixed price or a guaranteed length here.
Guest wishes or video guestbook
A collection of short guest messages recorded in a quiet corner, delivered as one video or separate clips.
Couple and wedding party interviews
A conversation about your love story and the people standing beside you, recorded before or during the day.
Engagement video
A short video about the two of you before the wedding, planned around a place that matters.
Save-the-date video
A brief announcement video you can share with invitations, planned around your date and tone.
Teaser or highlight video
A shorter edit with the strongest moments, made for sharing, with a longer edit as a separate choice.
Documentary ceremony or full speeches
The ceremony or toasts presented in full, with clean audio, for family who want every word.
Rehearsal and welcome events
Coverage of the rehearsal dinner or a welcome gathering, planned as its own short block of time.
Social edits
Short vertical clips cut for phones, made from the moments you choose to share.
What to cover first, and what to cut first
If you need to trim, decide by importance, not the clock: the moments you could not recreate, the people who must appear, and the parts you would happily see briefly.
- Cover first: the ceremony, key portraits, family groups you listed, and speeches you want recorded.
- Often cut first: long stretches of ordinary reception time, repeated detail shots and optional events outside the main day.
- Discuss before cutting anything timing-dependent, such as a sunset portrait.

Questions to ask any videographer or photographer
Ask the same list of every vendor, us included, so quotes are easier to compare. The list is in the first-call section below.
What we will ask you
- Your date, venue and ceremony location, and whether they are in the same place.
- The schedule you are planning, even if it is a draft.
- Which moments, people and details matter most to you.
- Whether any part of the day has restrictions on video, photo or audio.
- The planner, officiant or venue coordinator we should speak with.
- How you plan to use the finished video and photos.
How agreements are usually confirmed in writing
A written agreement typically lists the coverage, people, date and place, deliverables, and how they reach you. Payment terms and how a date is held are also set out there. We state no amounts, percentages or timelines here. Ask for each to be written down, and read it before you sign. Ask how a changed venue or date is handled, too.

Common questions
How early should we book?
Many couples secure their date 8 to 14 months ahead, especially for peak Connecticut wedding season. Earlier is safer.
Do we receive all the edited photos?
You receive an edited gallery. What it includes is confirmed in your quote.
Can we get raw footage?
It can be discussed as an add-on. Ask when you inquire.
How long is the highlight video?
Length is discussed when we plan your package, and options can be adjusted.
Do you offer custom packages?
Yes. Quotes are tailored to coverage hours, location and the size of your wedding.
Is a combined package always better?
Not always. It can simplify coordination, but a couple who loves a specific videographer or photographer may choose separate vendors. Compare how each plan handles the shared timeline.
Can we start small and add later?
Ask. Some add-ons can be requested later and some depend on availability. Have any plan to add coverage written into the agreement.
What if our venue restricts drones or shooting?
Ask the venue early and tell us what it says. We can plan around it, and the agreement can state what happens if a restriction applies on the day.
Are prints and albums part of every package?
Treat them as options to confirm. Ask what is offered, how you order them and where they appear in the quote.
How do we compare quotes from different vendors?
Ask each vendor the same questions and put the answers side by side: coverage, people, deliverables, add-ons and how payment is confirmed.
Discuss wedding coverage
Share your date, venue and the coverage you want. We will talk through scope and put a quote in writing after we speak.
