Selecting Wedding Songs for Your Wedding Video

Music is an incredibly important part of any wedding video.  If you’re like most couples, you have a special song or two that triggers happy memories from your time of dating.  It seems like an obvious idea to incorporate those special songs into your wedding video, right?  

We are often asked to include popular, well-known songs into wedding videos.  Unfortunately, this music is often expensive to properly license for commercial use, including use in wedding videography.  We understand these songs are important to couples.  However, we are not able to use unlicensed music in the wedding videos we produce.  Doing so would put our business at risk for being sued.  

In addition to this, sites used for sharing videos, such as YouTube and Facebook, will remove videos if an unlicensed song is detected.  We have a service through which we properly license the music included in our wedding videos. 

Music is the glue that pulls your wedding videography together.  If you have a certain style of music you prefer, please let us know ahead of time.  We carefully select music during the editing process. More than likely you want to work with us because you love our videos, so we ask that you trust our judgment and experience as we create a finished video that you will cherish for years to come.
