Wedding Videography Prices
What you get when you book me and how much video costs are also below in some detail. I have simplified things down to only two packages as I find anything with fewer hours, you are missing a considerable amount of footage from parts of the day not booked and, therefore, not filmed.
I thought I’d get behind the camera for a change and try to explain my wedding videographer prices without going into too much detail, as you can read about the two prices in more detail below. Press play, and the YouTube video should start playing automatically. If you need any more info, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Wedding Videography Prices include
One wedding film-maker (myself). It is much better to have one videographer as opposed to two, in my experience, two get in the way. Wedding videography packages include…
All un-edited video footage will be saved separately and includes A camera footage (the camera I operate), B camera footage (which is filming on a tripod) and drone footage (if filmed) with audio of what I have recorded synced with both A and B cameras for clearer sound and should be around two to three hours worth of footage depending on how long I’m booked for
All videos captured in 4k. 4k is 3840 x 2160 and far superior to standard HD, which is 1920x1080 to the higher resolution and looks great played on larger SmartTVs. Do not book a videographer if filming in HD, always go with 4k
The wedding highlights film is 8 to 15 minutes long, using some video footage and audio, and is the type of film you can share with friends and family without having to watch the whole video, drone footage (if filmed) and wooden USB and presentation box to keep in
Wedding Content Creator Prices include
Same as above, except the highlights are shorter, there are no full recordings, there are no audio recordings, just small clips, and there is no drone footage.
Extras
As with most things, you can expect additional fees outside basic wedding prices. Some ideas are
Personalised USB £190
With your names engraved
Pre-wedding (engagement) video £390
45 minutes filmed anywhere in NI and along the border counties
Extra hours are £390 per hour
Average Cost of Videographer for Wedding
The average cost of a videographer for a wedding in Northern Ireland depends, like most things, on experience and other factors too, but at the end of the day, you pay for what you get, as they say. The average ranges from £1290 up to £1990, with myself sitting at a good average. This depends on wedding videography packages, though, so if you have someone there for an hour, that would be a bit cheaper than someone there all day. It won’t make a big difference for someone to film for an hour instead of a full day, the price would not make that much difference. If you book someone for an hour, you are missing out on much of the whole day.
What should you budget?
I believe experts suggest allocating 10-20% of your overall budget to wedding videography. Taking into account the average NI wedding cost is £13,000 upwards, this means your videography budget should ideally fall into my price. All being said, what are you left with after the day, memories that fade over time, which is exactly why you should book as soon as possible, and this should be one of your priorities.
Happy with my Wedding Video Price?
Thank you and if you want to book me contact me to check if I’m available.
I pride myself in keeping my wedding videography under the £2000 mark. Over £2000 and the price becomes unaffordable, I believe. My price is below the £2000 price range for what you get is a great price, which you can see in the above breakdown.
Beware of people offering you a five to ten-minute (5 to 10 minutes) highlights-only video of your day as they will charge you a lot more if you want your additional footage, which means you could be paying double what I charge! Who wants to pay £1390 for a 10-minute highlights video and then a further £1000 for the rest of the wedding footage? Not!
Flexible Payment Plans
I offer flexible payment plans for couples, and you can pay monthly or every once in a while, it’s completely up to you. Receipts are provided, and you can contact me for more info. This can be through bank transfer, cash (if local to me), cheque, PayPal or Revolut. The rest of the payment needs to be paid two months before the day booked.
Wedding Videographer Prices
(ROI) over the border are the same as the above prices on my two packages, and the Irish euro price is below the description. As stated, there is no point in booking a package with less than these hours as it’ll not cost that much difference and you will be missing many parts that are not filmed. You will have to rely on guests’ video footage for these parts, which is not ideal and not the best thing to do.
For the cost of a wedding videographer in Ireland, travel is within the border counties only as I can’t travel too into ROI, sorry. To double-check the current conversion from sterling to Irish euro, please use a free online calculator, as these prices may be slightly outdated. My wedding videography cost in Ireland is affordable, as you can see. For any enquiries, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Wedding Videographer Cost
Let’s discuss and talk about the factors involved that can influence the above. Several things are involved, including experience and business costs. The prices aren’t just pulled out of a paper bag randomly but must be carefully and thoughtfully worked out so they affect wedding videography costs.
Experience
The experience of the person filming your wedding is another factor to be included in the prices and relates to quality. Videographers with less experience may offer their services at far lower rates (some might say silly prices) to build their portfolio, and those with years of experience tend to charge higher prices. I know everybody, like I did, starts somewhere, and several newcomer videographers have no experience and are producing some great work. A lot of it is dreadful, though it has to be said. Over time, as their business costs begin to go up for a variety of reasons, their prices will also rise. The best solution is to find a balance between the required quality expectation (i.e., what you expect) and paying a good price for your choice of a videographer.
Business costs
Every business has wedding videographer costs, which will differ in terms of their business even though they essentially do the same thing. Business costs will also vary, so, understandably, this will be a factor when comparing prices. These are a must-have and offer peace of mind for everyone involved, including the videographer, venue and the couple booking the professional. There are operating costs in running a professional business. Some of the wedding videographer costs include equipment, advertising, accounting, car, income tax and others.
Final Thoughts on Wedding Videographer Cost
Many professional videographers continually invest in retraining and education to keep themselves up-to-date with the latest techniques in the industry, so this is reflected in their wedding videographer cost. To finish off prices and packages, consider all of the running expenses, equipment and time involved in filming and editing.
