What moves the price
- Coverage hours — a wedding videographer filming from the morning preparations to the first dance costs more than ceremony-only filming
- Film length — a three-minute highlights film takes far less editing than a full documentary edit of the ceremony and speeches
- Second camera operator — two videographers catch the vows from both angles and are charged as an extra person on the day
- Drone footage — aerial shots of the venue need a pilot who meets the CAA rules, and that is priced as an add-on
- Music in the film — licensed tracks for the wedding video soundtrack can carry a licence fee that the videographer passes on
- Peak dates — summer Saturdays book out first, and a wedding videographer rarely discounts them

How to pay less
- Ask the wedding videographer for a highlights film only instead of a full documentary edit
- Book a midweek or winter wedding date, when videographers have more free days in the diary
- Book the wedding photographer and videographer as a pair from one studio if they offer a combined package
Before you book
- Watch at least one complete wedding film from the videographer, not only a short trailer
- Check your venue's rules on filming during the ceremony and on flying a drone over the grounds
- Confirm the wedding videographer carries public liability insurance, which most venues ask to see
- Agree in writing how long the edit takes, how many revisions are included and how the films are delivered
Wedding Videographer cost: questions people ask
Most UK couples pay between £1,000 and £3,495, with around £1,900 typical. A short highlights film from part of the day sits lowest, and two operators, drone shots and full-length edits sit highest.
Editing usually takes eight to sixteen weeks after the wedding, longer in the busy summer months. Ask for the delivery date to be written into the contract.
Only with the right licence. Commercial tracks need permission from the rights holders, and PRS for Music offers licences for wedding films. Many videographers use licensed library music instead to avoid the extra cost.
Sometimes. Studios that offer photography and video together often price the pair below booking two separate suppliers, and the two crews already know how to work around each other.
Drone footage, raw footage, extra hours and a full ceremony or speeches edit are often extras. Check the package list before you sign.
