What to Expect When Booking a Wedding Content Creator

Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and capturing it beautifully is a priority. Whether you’re planning an elaborate celebration or an intimate gathering, hiring a wedding content creator ensures your memories are preserved in a modern and engaging way. If you’re curious about what working with a wedding content creator entails, here’s a step-by-step guide to the process, from your first inquiry to receiving your final deliverable(s).

Step 1: The Initial Inquiry

The journey begins with your first point of contact. Whether you reach out via email, social media, or a website form, expect a warm and enthusiastic response. Most content creators will request key details about your wedding, including:

  • Your wedding date

  • Location(s)

  • The type of content you’re looking for (raw media, reels, teasers, ceremony highlights, etc.)

This step ensures availability and allows us to understand your needs before diving into specifics.

Step 2: Discovery Call or Consultation

Once your inquiry is received, we will schedule a discovery call. This conversation is an opportunity for you to share your vision and discuss our process. Questions we might ask include:

  • What moments are most important to you?

  • How would you describe your wedding vibe or style?

  • Do you have preferences for how your content is edited or presented?

This call is also your chance to ask us questions about packages, pricing, and timelines. It’s essential to feel comfortable with our approach and confident in our ability to bring your vision to life.

Step 3: Booking and Contract

After your consultation, we’ll send your proposal or contract. This document outlines all the details of your agreement, including:

  • Services included

  • Delivery timeline

  • Payment schedule

  • Cancellation and rescheduling policies

Please review the contract carefully and ask for clarification if necessary. Once you have signed and paid the deposit, your date is officially secured!

Step 4: Pre-Wedding Planning

In the weeks/months leading up to your wedding, we will request your wedding timeline, vendor information, and any specific shots you want to prioritize. Communication is key during this phase to ensure nothing is overlooked.

Step 5: The Wedding Day

On the big day, your content creator will arrive prepared and ready to capture the moments that matter most. Unlike traditional videography, content creation focuses on crafting shorter, social-media-friendly videos, so our approach will be more streamlined. Expect us to:

  • Be unobtrusive, blending seamlessly into the event.

  • Prioritize candid, authentic moments alongside key highlights.

  • Work collaboratively with other vendors to capture your day efficiently.

Step 6: Post-Production

After your wedding, the magic happens in the editing room. We will sort through footage, selecting the best clips to craft a cohesive, engaging story. Depending on your package, you might receive:

  • A short highlight reel

  • Instagram-ready vertical videos

  • A teaser for sharing with friends and family

  • Raw media only

While you will reserve the raw media within 24 hours, other edits may take longer, depending on your package.

Step 7: Delivery and Feedback

Once your videos are ready, you’ll receive them through an online gallery or file-sharing service. This makes downloading and sharing your content easy. After delivery, don’t hesitate to share feedback. Your insights are invaluable for our growth!
