First and foremost we provide the very best in video equipment to video film your special day, because we are in full time commercial video production, we have to have the best in video equipment. Its the type of equipment that is not normally used to film weddings, but because of our commercial requirements we use the Sony Broadcast DSR 500W true 16.9 professional widescreen and 4.3 standard digital video cameras which will put your wedding video light years ahead of any one else for quality.

We provide a very comprehensive service for our wedding couples. To start your wedding video we have the early life of Bride and Groom, growing up from toddlers to the present day.It is optional, but it`s very popular with our couples with the background story of where and when you were born and who too, where and when you both met one another. When and where you got engaged, the story is put together using our broadcast computer graphics with about six photographs of the Bride and Groom growing up from toddlers to the present day as well as about three or four photographs of you both together and all of this blended together with animation frames.

We are always on location about two hours before the event is due to start.First we go to the reception venue to check on things like greeting the guests, where it will take place and whether extra lighting will be required. Then onto the church to set up the camera tripod in a suitable position to capture those most tender and magic moments of your special day.

We video film from the moment the first guests arrive at the church, the ushers, the groom with the best man and followed by the bridesmaids. Then that very special moment when the bride herself arrives. We video the service,(clergy permitting), the majority are accommodating when they know it`s a professional filming the wedding service, as we have a strict code of conduct with the churches and we keep to it. We video film the signing of the church register live, as it happens and the very special moment when the Bride and Groom walk proudly down the aisle as husband and wife. Outside the church we do film wedding groups and what is going on around the church yard. Not in the same way as your photographer, our approach is so completely different and we take refreshing shots from all angles so absolutely nothing gets missed. In fact most couples say they do not really catch up with the wedding until they have seen the wedding video.

At the reception, we film the greeting of the guests. When they sit down we video the reception layout to show who sat where and showing the general table layout before the meal is served. We dislike videoing people when they are eating. At the end of the main reception we video film the cutting of the cake and this is followed by the speeches performed by the Bride's father, the Groom, very occasionally the Bride herself and finally the Best man.

We start video filming the evening with the Bride and Groom's first dance and bits and pieces during the evening to give an overview of the evening reception. .
Another special service that we perform is when your photographer has finished taking photographs at the church, we take you to one side and arrange you both in a suitable pose to take some special video shots of you for the video cover. We believe the video should look as good on the outside, as it is on the inside. We take colour prints from the video tape to produce a full wrap colour sleeve for your video cover with the Bride and Groom's names on and where and when you got married. It makes the video very special for the bride and groom. We do not send your video out in any old box.

Back at the studio we go through the whole day's wedding footage and put together a very special montage of all those magic moments of the Bride and Groom throughout the day, with slow motion and freeze frames. This is put together with suitable background music. It is said that if a bride and her mum watch through the video alright, they usually shed a sentimental tear during the montage.
One thing to remember, if you are getting married in the next eighteen months and you want the very best service money can buy, you would need to book now. If you leave it until the last minute you could be very disappointed at not getting the type of video that you wanted for your special day. So pick up a phone and call Cambridge DVD Wedding Video and make sure your big day is covered by a professional quality video. Telephone us now on (01223) 233588 and make an appointment to come into our studio to see one of our quality videos for yourself. You will be most welcome.

The famous horse racing jockey Frankie Dettori got married to Catherine Allen in Newmarket at the end of July. All the three major television broadcasters offered to video film the wedding free of charge. The couple declined all the above offers and chose our Video Productions for their high quality digital video productions to cover the entire wedding. On the 27th of January this year we were again chosen to to video film a wedding in which Frankie Dettori was Best man at his Best mans wedding, it was another great occasion for us.
