Film your wedding video the way it felt. Your favourite people do the filming, we craft the story. You get the honest home video energy, plus a polished highlight you will actually rewatch.


Why DIY beats the usual wedding video

  • Authentic, inside the moment Your guests capture the laughter, the hugs, the chaos, and the quiet little glances that a stranger might miss.

  • Affordable without the compromise Save thousands compared to traditional videography. Put that towards your bar tab, live music, or the honeymoon.

  • Pro finish, zero fuss We grade the colour, sweeten the audio, license the music, and cut a tight highlight that lands every time.

  • NZ wide, easy logistics We ship the kit to your door, you send it back with the prepaid label. Simple.


How it works

  1. We ship your kit 4 to 6 days before the big day. Charged batteries, SD card, on camera mic, tripod, quick start guide, and a QR tutorial.

  2. You and your mates film the fun Pass the cam like a party favour. Keep clips short, capture big moments and inside jokes.

  3. You send it back Pop it into the same box and drop it off within 72 hours.

  4. We craft your highlight A rewatchable 3 to 6 minute film, plus your organised raw footage for keeps.
