Share a few details and we'll check your date.
Booking & availability
How to check your date, secure your booking and plan ahead for the busiest months in South Florida.
How far in advance should we book a wedding videographer in Miami?
It's best to enquire as soon as you have a date and venue, especially for Saturdays in the busy winter and spring months. Shorter notice is sometimes possible, so it's always worth asking.
How do we check if our date is available?
Send your date and venue through the quote form or by email. We'll confirm availability and send a tailored quote based on your plans.
How do we secure our date?
Your date is secured with a signed contract and a retainer, and the balance is paid before the wedding. A payment schedule can be discussed if that helps.
Do you publish prices for your packages?
No, because every wedding needs different coverage. You can compare the Essential, Signature and Heirloom collections on our packages page and request an itemised quote.
Style & coverage
What to expect from the filming style on the day, from direction and crew size to ceremonies and traditions.
What is your filming style?
Documentary-led and cinematic. Real moments are filmed as they happen, then shaped into a hand-edited film with natural colour and careful sound.
Will you direct or pose us?
Only a little, and only where it helps. Gentle direction is kept for a short portrait session, usually in softer light before sunset.
How many cinematographers do we need?
Most full-day weddings are filmed by two cinematographers, while intimate ceremonies may need only one. Larger celebrations or weddings across two venues may suit three.
Can you film cultural and religious ceremonies?
Yes. Share your traditions during planning so the team understands each moment and any rules about filming during the ceremony.
Do you film elopements and small weddings?
Yes, with shorter and more flexible coverage. Our elopement videography page explains how intimate ceremonies are filmed.
Films & delivery
The films you can choose, how they reach you and what happens once your wedding has been edited.
Which films can we choose?
Options include a social teaser, a highlight film, a longer feature film, a full documentary edit and complete ceremony and speeches edits. Your proposal confirms which films are included.
When will we receive our films?
Delivery timescales depend on the season and the films you choose. Each proposal sets out when to expect every film, so you'll know before you book.
How are the films delivered?
Your films are shared in a private online gallery where you can stream, download and send them to family and friends wherever they live.
Can we choose the music?
You're welcome to suggest songs you love. Music is licensed for every film so it can be shared online, and we'll help you find tracks that suit your story.
Can we request changes after delivery?
Yes. A round of minor revisions is included after your films are delivered, so small adjustments can be made before everything is finalised.
Travel & logistics
How a UK-based studio plans and films weddings across Miami and South Florida, whatever the weather.
Where is the studio based?
Wedding Videographer Miami is based in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, and films weddings across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties and the Florida Keys.
Can we plan our Miami wedding from the UK?
Yes. Planning happens by email and video call during UK working hours, and Miami is usually five hours behind. Our guide to planning a Miami wedding from the UK covers the essentials.
Are travel costs included in the quote?
Any travel costs are itemised in your quote, so there are no surprises. Locations further from Miami, such as Key West or Palm Beach, may include travel or accommodation.
What happens if it rains?
Summer storms in South Florida often pass quickly. Filming plans include indoor alternatives agreed with your venue, and equipment is protected so filming can continue.
Drone, livestream & extras
Optional extras that add aerial views, live viewing for distant family and a short film shown on the night.
Can you fly a drone at our venue?
Drone filming only takes place where venue rules and airspace regulations allow, with any authorisation needed arranged in advance. Much of Miami sits near controlled airspace, so read more on our drone videography page.
Can family overseas watch the ceremony live?
Yes. A wedding livestream gives guests a private link they can open in a browser with no app, run by a separate operator on its own mobile connection.
What is a same-day edit?
A short film edited on site during your wedding and shown at the reception. It needs a screen or projector and sound, and your same-day edit doesn't replace your full films.
Can we add an engagement film?
Yes. An engagement or proposal film can be added to any collection or booked on its own, and it's a relaxed way to get used to the camera.
Still deciding? How to ask us a question
If your question isn't covered here, send it through the quote form at the top of the page or email the studio. You can ask about anything, from coverage for a small ceremony to drone rules at a particular venue, and there's no obligation to book.
It helps to include your date, venue and the films you're considering, so the answer is specific to your plans. A short video call can follow if it would help to talk things through in more detail. You'll find the email address and enquiry tips on our contact page.
