song selection

Songs for your video...

Songs make such an incredible impact on the feel of your wedding video!  They set the tone for the clips, evoke emotion, and add even more  personality  to the story of your big day.  If you would like to, we would love for you to choose the songs that will make this video truly yours.  We also give you the option of deferring the selection to our amazingly-talented editing team.  They have a lot of experience with wedding videos and can choose songs that will complement the video clips of your big day.  It's up to you! 

 

If we don't hear from you before your wedding day, we will assume that you would like the editing team to choose your songs.  Please note that we edit your video to the beat of the song, so it is a lot of work to change a song after the video has already been edited.  Because of this, we will charge a $75 re-edit fee if you want to change your songs after your video has already been delivered.

 

Whichever route you choose, just be aware that copyright laws are very strict regarding the use of music in wedding videos.  To play fair and keep us all out of legal trouble, we must be able to purchase a license for all of the songs we use in your video.  But don't worry, we have subscriptions to four different music sites from which you may select your songs! You don't need to download anything, just let us know what you decide!  You can either send your Event Manager a quick text or put them directly into your Personal Wedding Details Page.

For the beginning song, we recommend something in the "Instrumental Love" category.  These are slower and have a sentimental/romantic feel.  Instrumental is best here because lyrics can be distracting during this portion of the video, and there is often recorded audio of vows or reading letters.  Lyrics tend to "fight" recorded audio and make listening to your vows or letter reading difficult.

For the ending song, an upbeat, fun song fits well - this one can have lyrics, but it can also be instrumental

If your wedding video will have 3-4 songs, we recommend selecting a transition song that bridges the beginning and ending soundtrack.

If the song listed below is on Fyrfly, it's necessary to search for it because that website won't link to specific songs.

If you have more than 2 songs to choose, the middle (transition) song can be either lyrical or instrumental.

As you are listening to the songs, keep in mind....

beginning songs

ending songs

If your coverage time is 8-10 hours, you'll need one transition song, and if your coverage time is 10+ hours, you'll need two transition songs.  We can vary the order of the songs.  For example, you may want to start the video with a lyrical love song and then use an instrumental love song as the second song.  It's okay too if you choose a song from each category and ask the editing team to choose the best order.
