As destination wedding videographers we have a guilty pleasure, which is France, from Paris to Chateau weddings in the Dordogne, everything about France is a burst of love that makes our job a little bit easier to perform than anywhere else in the world.
Wedding Videography in France is something we always dreamed of doing, and we have been gifted with the trust of a handful of couples by now. We have been there several times, and we have witnessed what true love looks like in the most loveable place in the world. But, why have weddings in France won our hearts so dearly?
Different shades of blue & white
As wedding videographers we have a keen eye for the different hues white can get in a certain place, and well, weddings are a burst of pure white. All this whiteness behaves in one of the most beautiful ways we have seen anywhere in the world. Wedding dresses turn themselves into a soothing and subtly warm character of the wedding. Also flowers have an extra special presence due to the behaviour of white in weddings in France.
Venues are Everything
One of the most important and impressive things to see when a couple decide to start their love story by marrying in France, are the places they choose for their celebrations. These venues have an extremely charming nature, which accentuates the romantic story that we are going to film.
These places have such a significant presence at the celebration and in the wedding video that we could say that they have evolved (for us) into becoming a character of the wedding, which could be almost as important as the couple itself.
What we love the most about these places is that inside them light behaves in a very particular way, making our work as wedding videographers easier to perform, or at least that’s what we feel.
Chateau Weddings in France
And speaking of the venues, Chateaus are a big thing right now in modern weddings in France. Dating from the feudal era, and still very well preserved around France, they are without a doubt the most requested places for couples willing to get married in France.
Inside-out, these places deliver a level of elegance that is totally unique that helps creating one of the most fantastic wedding videos of our whole career as wedding videographers.
If you are willing to have a beautiful Chateau for your wedding in France, make sure to plan things with enough time, because even though there are hundres of Chateaus around France, they are all highly in demand for weddings and other purposes.
We recently added the latest and greatest in terms of drones to our filming gear, and since then we have been able to capture the beauty of these places in a way that previously was totally impossible for us.
The Icon of Love – Paris Wedding Videography
France is an indisputable symbol of love, with Paris in particular perhaps one of the most recurrent places when a couple starts dreaming of getting married. But just a few couples are actually lucky enough to make this place the ultimate witness of their love-story’s new starting point.
As the City of Love, Paris rarely disappoints as a destination – in fact, we can’t imagine ever getting tired of filming weddings there!
Light Deserves Credit
Light is everything when it comes to photography, but in videography light is even more important. We do not yet know why these magical wedding venues have a very particular light that makes everything extremely silky and charming. Perhaps this is because white turns into that unique colour nuance that drives us crazy at Hdmoments.
This soft light helps a lot when filming, making the romantic nature of the video more accentuated without major editing efforts. We firmly believe that France is generous with us wedding videographers (and photographers too) in general, because its light helps us to do things in a way that is simple and very little enforced.
One of our major secrets for working things out with weddings is to create a concept. Every wedding has a special vibe and its own peculiarities, therefore it makes sense to create a concept that could be developed all the way around in order to always having a unique way of filming everything that revolves the wedding day.
The best way we’ve found for capturing weddings in a unique way is to create a complete concept around them, leaving little room for improvisation. Don’t get us wrong, we are not rigid, but we try to keep our filming efforts aligned to a preconceived idea that makes possible that every wedding we get to film results in a unique and precious memory for everybody else.
