To hear the vows again
To remember all the little things you did that you'd forget
To hear your parents and grandparents comments
To see your children’s reactions one day
To relive family members that die
To have a record proving he did indeed say those things
To show the family and friends who couldn't be there
To have an excuse to invite everybody over later
To show Dad what he got for his money
To own an heirloom that no money could replace

To video or not to video? That is the question

Why? There is no other component that can give you more joy or impart more feelings of love or nostalgia. No other component can transport you back in time, a virtual time machine of memories and the love and laughter and heartfelt joy of family and friends. There is no other component that with a push of a button can make your wedding day, and all the people in it come alive. All in all, there is not one other wedding component that has the properties or capabilities of a video. Why would you think twice about it?

If you had to choose between photography and video , because of budget limitations, what should you do? Assume you could have either a photo album or a video, of your grandparent's wedding day, which one would you choose? If you could see and hear your grand parents one more time, which would you prefer? If your budget makes you choose, scale down your photography. Hire the photographer for a couple of hours to take the ceremony shots and the family groupings afterward. Put your money in your video.
