[giveaway] Your Wedding Video: Unrated
Fact: many couples don’t hire a professional videographer. If you asks past grooms why that is, the answer you’ll most likely get is that they don’t want to spend the money. In reality, it’s because they want don’t want a video that captures the “boring” moments of the wedding… they want one that captures the offbeat, unique memories that their friends experienced. One that features their bride dancing on a table at the end of the night or their Best Man downing a shot of tequila as he tries to sweet talk a bridesmaid. You know, the unrated version. With so much going on during the festivities, it’s easy to miss some of these hidden moments.
Lucky for you, our friends at Storymix Media have launched a new service called My Flip Wedding to help couples easily capture and re-live the best moments from the entire wedding experience – from bachelor party through honeymoon. The process is simple. Storymix sends Flip cameras for you and your guests to shoot video throughout the wedding experience. After the wedding, you send the cameras back in the provided pre-paid box and Storymix turns the footage into a cool 15-20 minute highlight video with the scenes you want. [editor's note - it's great because grooms can exert some control over what will be filmed by putting the cameras in the hands of their buddies.] And the best part of all, prices start at only $99.99.
Take a look at this sample Flip Wedding footage (and pay special attention to Grandma’s beer pong challenge).

i’ve always thought it would be cool to get a shot of the groom while the bride is walking down the aisle. maybe focus one camera on the bride and the other just on the groom.

My shots would be:
One of the MANY teenage boys at my wedding trying to hit on one of the few teenage girls.
My dad officiating the wedding ceremony.
The dude at the sundae bar (screw wedding cake) flipping scoops of ice cream in the air and catching them in cups.

The three scenes I most want captured from our wedding are our kiss, the cake cutting and our first dance.

Cool giveaway. I’d like to get the best man’s toast, the first kiss, and the keg stand my fiance and I are going to do at the reception
March 21st, 2011 at 5:14 pm
Three shots would be:
1) The Three Wisemen
2) Cherry Bomb
3) Ring of Fire
Wait, that’s not right at all. Sorry, that’s the three shots to kick off the bachelor party. I’d say:
1) My mom crying while she gives her 18-minute speech
2) Me breakdancing after our first slow dance together
3) My 78-year old grandpa trying to hit on all of our young female friends (with his wife in arm)
Thanks for the opp!

The three shots I’d love to have captured are
1. When he sees me walking down the aisle
2. People’s reaction to our uber secret and fun entrance to the reception
3. The crazy dancing that goes along with being near my future hubby lol
