It has become increasingly popular for couples to have a video made of their wedding and reception celebrations, often to complement the photographer's record. A video provides a way to look back on the events of your ceremony and reception, and gives an opportunity to view the celebrations from a different perspective.
Most couples feel that their wedding day goes by in a blur and that they do not remember the finer details of the celebrations. Things like guests' outfits, the bridesmaid's giggles and the way the guests laughed at the groom's speech can get missed in the excitement. Also, the bride and groom are often in one place for a long time, while having photographs taken for example, and may miss some lovely moments elsewhere. A video is an excellent way of capturing these details, allowing the couple and their guests to relive the event in quieter moments for years to come. A couple that would like a video of their wedding can decide to ask a friend to help or employ a professional. But before making any of these decisions, ensure that your wedding venues allows Videography. If Videography is permitted, find out if there will be any additional charge levied by the venue.

Using A Professional
If having a high quality video of your wedding is important to you and you have the budget, you should employ a professional videographer. Each videographer has their own particular style and no two wedding videos will be the same. As well as styles varying, so do prices. There is no standard charge for professional videographers. You will find that prices range from a few hundred pounds, for part-time professionals using semi-professional equipment, to a few thousand pounds for the most experienced videographers that use broadcast quality equipment and employ several camera operators and crew. Like most things in life, you usually get what you pay for, although you should expect to get a good final product by paying in the range £500 to £,000.
Before you visit or speak to a videographer, give some thought to the style you would like. Perhaps you would be happy with the standard wedding video style or maybe you'd prefer a fly-on-the-wall, documentary style production using more than one camera (it is usually very evident if a video has been made using just one or more than one camera). You may like to have a video of just your reception, just the ceremony or a record of the whole day, including the bride and groom preparing and ending with the last dance.

Probably the main thing that affects what a photographer charges is time. 
The quantity and sizes of photos also affects how much the package will cost. 
Assuming a package includes an album, this is the other major factor that affects wedding photography prices.
