Weddings
Wedding photos and videos.
Same team for photos and video. Same day. No coordinating two vendors.
Cory & Emily · Louisville · 2024
Three things to open.
A short film, a long film, and a full gallery. Every wedding package includes all three.
Deliverable 01
The highlight reel.
60 to 90 seconds. Music, ceremony peak, the moments between. Delivered in 7 days, before the cake is gone.
Deliverable 02
The full film.
6 to 10 minutes. Ceremony, toasts, first dance, the laughs that don't make the highlight reel. Full film in 2 to 3 months, sometimes as quick as 1 week.
Deliverable 03
The full gallery.
300 to 500 edited photos for a typical 8-hour day. Online gallery with downloads and a print release. Delivered with the full film.
Planned and organized.
Five steps from first contact to delivery. The same process every time, planned and organized, no surprises.
See the processWedding videography styles.
Three approaches you will see across Louisville wedding videographers. Our default is cinematic with documentary second-camera coverage.
Cinematic wedding films
Music-driven, color-graded, shot on cinema cameras with prime lenses. 60 to 90 second highlight reel plus a 6 to 10 minute full film. The most-asked-for style in 2026 — looks like a short film, not a slideshow. Pricing at Blue River Weddings starts at $2,200 for video only.
Documentary wedding videography
Hand-held, observational, longer takes. The goal is to record the day as it unfolds — toasts, family moments, the unrepeatable stuff. Often combined with cinematic editing for the highlight reel and a longer documentary cut for the full film.
Traditional wedding video
A chronological, multi-camera cut of the ceremony and toasts. Aimed at couples who want a clean record of the day and not an edited film. Less common now — most 2026 Louisville couples prefer cinematic or hybrid.
