What We Do

SERVICES.

01

Wedding Films

Most couples forget 80 percent of their wedding day by the end of the first year. A wedding film means you get to live inside it again whenever you want. As an Asheville wedding videographer, we craft cinematic films for couples across western North Carolina and the Southeast -- capturing the real moments that matter: the first look, the vows, the toasts, the dancing at midnight. We travel for destination weddings throughout the region and beyond.

Common Questions

FAQ.

How much does wedding videography cost in Asheville, NC?

Every wedding is different, so we price each project based on coverage time, travel, and deliverables. Most Asheville wedding videography packages start around $2,000 and go up from there depending on what you need. Reach out and we will send you a full breakdown with no pressure.

Do you travel outside of Asheville for weddings?

Yes. We are based in Asheville but regularly film weddings throughout western North Carolina, the greater Southeast, and destination weddings further afield. Travel fees apply outside a certain radius -- just ask and we will be upfront about it.

How long until we receive our wedding film?

Most highlight films are delivered within 6 to 8 weeks of your wedding date. Full ceremony cuts and longer edits may take a little longer. We will give you a clear timeline before we start and keep you updated throughout.

What is the difference between a highlight film and a full-length film?

A highlight film is a cinematic 3 to 6 minute edit set to music -- the one you will watch on anniversaries and share with family. A full-length film captures the entire ceremony and key moments with full audio. Most couples get both. We include both in our standard wedding packages.

Can we choose the music for our wedding film?

Absolutely. We work with you to choose music that fits the feel of your day. We use properly licensed tracks so your film will never get muted or blocked on social media.

Do you work alongside wedding photographers?

All the time. We are experienced at working alongside photographers and other vendors without getting in each other's way. If you already have a photographer booked, let us know and we will coordinate in advance to make sure both teams get what they need.

Do you make brand films for businesses?

Yes. Brand films are one of our core services. We work with restaurants, retail brands, home service companies, and creatives across western NC to produce cinematic films that build trust and drive real results. Most brand film projects start at $2,000 and are delivered within two weeks of the shoot.

Can you handle both our wedding film and business video needs?

Absolutely. A lot of our couples are also business owners, and we love working with people on both sides. Whether you need a wedding film or a brand film for your company, the approach is the same - real storytelling, sharp craft, and video that actually gets used.
