HOT TOPIC: wedding worries Our experts solve your problems CAUGHT ON CAMERA We’re thinking of booking a videographer for our wedding, but we’re feeling overwhelmed by the choice available. How can we narrow it down and find the perfect supplier? The amount of videographers available can seem a little overwhelming, but the beauty of a lot of choice is that there is a supplier out there to suit everyone – you just need to find them! A good place to start is by nailing down the style of video that you like. Maybe you prefer a fun, relaxed look that captures your day exactly as it happens, or perhaps you want something a little more romantic? Watching wedding videos that catch your eye and noting down aspects that you and your partner do and don’t like will help narrow down your search and lead you to a videographer that ticks all your boxes. Another great place to start is by asking for recommendations from married friends and other suppliers you have already booked. The wedding world is a close network, and if you find people that love working together and complement each other, there can only be a great outcome. Once you’ve found a videographer, I’d always recommend arranging a get to know each other chat. You can ask any burning questions and get a feel for your supplier as a person. Your videographer will be there for most of the day and will want to make a video that you love, so feeling comfortable around them is very important. Kathryn Berry www.kathrynberryfilms.com MUSIC TO MY EARS We’d love some live music at our drinks reception, but don’t want anything too intrusive as guests will want to chat and catch up. What would you suggest? Consider booking a string quartet for your big day. An acoustic string quartet will be nonintrusive and provide a comfortable atmosphere for your guests to mingle and converse freely. Here at Harmony String Quartet, we give our couples access to our full catalogue of music ranging from soft classical to light jazz and modern day hits. Look through your supplier’s repertoire and see if their style suits your big day.
