The Wedding Filmer is a team of filmmakers based in Mumbai who bring the magic of cinema to real people on their wedding days. What we do is, we allow you to relive the biggest moments of your life in the way that they deserve to be remembered. With respect and perspective.
Our wedding film services are customisable, with packages starting from INR 8 Lakhs to INR 12 lakhs per day (approx. $9,000 - $14,000). The budgeting variables depend on the wedding's size and type, and we take into account various factors such as your unique story, personalities, and desired coverage of the event. The cost also considers the crew size and includes other talented professionals. Additional services like personalised soundtracks, 360 videos, aerial videography, on-site edits, and special requirements are all elements we consider while budgeting your film and that may be add on services. Whether it's a Bollywood-style grand production or an intimate wedding, we are committed to delivering exceptional wedding films that meet your preferences and expectations.
Although we do offer same-day edits, it is not something we recommend because a hurried edit may take away from the soul of your wedding video.
Our films are tailored to your wedding, and so is our crew. We have a great team of three and a fantastic team of thirty. We wouldn't compromise on production value so you can trust our instinct on how many people you would need.
We do not offer wedding photography ourselves, but The Wedding Filmer has worked with Stories by Joseph Radhik, Shawn Menezes and many more for wedding photography. Together, we share a similar creative vision and a unique storytelling approach. Working as a team allows us to capture beautiful moments unobtrusively with stunning visuals. We also love working with new photographers and love sharing ideas with them.
The film's duration depends on various factors, such as the wedding's sequence of events and your desired memories. Our wedding films can range anywhere between 20 to 120 minutes. For more information, feel free to contact us.
Due to the limited number of weddings we confirm each year, we believe in offering every inquiry a fair opportunity to book our dates. Ideally, we would encourage you to reach out to us the moment you say yes!
The sooner you book us, the sooner your film will be edited. On request, we can deliver same day/same week edits, but the feature film may take six to twelve months to create. We believe that these films last for a lifetime and we like to leave no stone unturned in the creative process.
Life's significant moments, such as being born, coming of age, celebrating milestones, and experiencing loss, are epic for each of us. Feel free to reach out to us. If we feel there is a story to be told, we'll do our utmost to tell it in the most meaningful way possible.
No, we strongly advise against this. We like to shoot very unobtrusively, without scripting, rehearsing or making you conscious of our presence and it's hard to do so when you have lights, and cameras all over you. We also insist on not more than two photographers. That way you'll get the best of both!
Yes we do! All over the world in fact, but you'll have to get us there and give us a place to sleep! To stay updated on our whereabouts, check our Instagram page (@theweddingfilmer), as we travel globally. There's a chance we might be in your country when your big day approaches!
We've had the privilege to film some of the most prominent weddings, both in Bollywood and beyond. We've captured the magical moments of celebrity couples like Deepika-Ranveer, Kiara-Sidharth, Anushka-Virat and the Ambani’s, making their special days even more memorable. But whether it's the glamour of the stars or the sweetness of everyday love stories, TWF is dedicated to preserving these cherished moments for a lifetime.
Certainly! We were the first to use a drone at weddings in India. Drone coverage and the footage we capture with it depend on the permissions we receive at each location. We've captured some incredibly stunning shots for our couples using drones. Do note that some countries (like UAE and Morocco) have banned drones being imported. In such a case, we work with local drone pilots.
Our superpower is music! If you are reading this, you probably do like the music in our films. Rest assured, the music that is handpicked or composed for your wedding will fit just right. We consider what played at your wedding and what kind of music speaks to the both of you and your families. Additionally, we take into account your cultures, traditions and the mood of each scene before zeroing down on the soundtrack of your wedding film. And yes, of course you have a say in the music and scoring of your film.
