Proposal and engagement videography for Miami couples
Some of the most important moments in a relationship happen before the wedding is even planned. Wedding Videographer Miami offers two kinds of pre-wedding film: hidden proposal filming, where the camera stays out of sight until the question has been asked, and engagement films, where the two of you spend a relaxed hour or two together in a place that suits you.
Both are filmed in the same documentary style as our wedding work. The focus is on how you are together, the laughter, the nerves and the quiet looks, with gentle direction only to put you in the best light. Miami gives you plenty of choice, from colourful street murals and garden paths to the water at golden hour.
The finished film works well as a save-the-date, an introduction on your wedding website or a surprise at the reception. It also gives you a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.
What an engagement or proposal film includes
Every session is planned around your idea, so the details vary. Most engagement and proposal bookings include the following, and your proposal confirms exactly what you'll receive.
A short cinematic film
A music-led film of your proposal or session, edited by hand around your real moments rather than a template.
A save-the-date cut
A shorter version with your names and wedding date, ready to send to guests or share on your wedding website.
Location planning
Help choosing a spot that suits the light, the time of day and how private you'd like the moment to be.
Discreet proposal filming
Long lenses and natural positions so your partner doesn't notice the camera until after the question.
Your voices on film
Optional recorded letters or short conversations woven into the edit to make the film feel personal.
A vertical social cut
A short portrait-format version that's easy to share with family and friends on your phone.
Is a proposal or engagement film right for you?
Anyone planning a surprise proposal in Miami
If you're planning to propose, a proposal videographer in Miami can record the moment without giving anything away. Hidden proposal filming suits beaches, hotel terraces, gardens and quiet spots by the water, and it means your partner gets to relive the surprise rather than hearing about it secondhand.
Newly engaged couples who want a save-the-date
An engagement video in Miami is a lovely way to announce your date. A short session at golden hour gives you a film to send to guests, along with footage that can open your wedding film later on.

Why plan your proposal with Wedding Videographer Miami
Planning that protects the surprise
A good proposal film depends on preparation. Before the day, we agree the exact spot, the timing and a simple signal with you, so the filmmaker is in place before you arrive and your partner has no reason to suspect anything.
Relaxed sessions with gentle direction
Most couples feel awkward in front of a camera at first. Engagement sessions are kept unhurried, with prompts to walk, talk and enjoy each other's company, so the film looks natural rather than posed.
Light and weather planned in advance
Miami's midday sun is harsh and summer storms arrive quickly. Sessions are timed around sunset wherever possible, with a backup time or location agreed in case the weather changes.
A natural first step towards your wedding film
Booking an engagement film alongside full-day wedding videography means you already know the team on the wedding day, and the footage can be used to open your feature film.

What affects the cost of an engagement or proposal film?
The cost of an engagement or proposal film depends on how long the session runs, how many locations you'd like, whether a second filmmaker is needed to stay hidden, and which edits you choose. Travel to places further out, such as the Florida Keys, can also affect the total.
Engagement films can be booked on their own or added to any wedding collection, which is often the simplest option for couples who already plan to have their wedding filmed. Wedding Videographer Miami prepares a tailored quote for every enquiry, and you can compare the Essential, Signature and Heirloom collections on our packages page.
Places and services that pair well with an engagement film
Engagement and proposal films are available throughout Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties and the Florida Keys. Explore some popular areas or related services, and check any filming rules with the location first.
Engagement and proposal film FAQs
You'll find more answers on our FAQ page, or you can ask us directly through the quote form.
How do you stay hidden during a proposal?
We visit or study the spot beforehand, agree a signal with you and film from a natural position using long lenses. Your partner shouldn't notice anything until the filmmaker steps out to congratulate you.
What should we wear for an engagement film?
Choose outfits that feel like you, and coordinate colours rather than matching exactly. Soft, solid colours suit Miami light, while fine stripes and large logos can be distracting on camera.
Can we use the film as a save-the-date?
Yes. A short save-the-date cut with your names and wedding date can be included, ready to send to guests by email or share on your wedding website.
Can the engagement film be shown at our wedding?
Many couples play it during the reception or use it to open their wedding film. It's a lovely way to show guests how your story began.
