If you\u2019re like most couples, you love the idea of capturing the sights and sounds of your big day to savor and share for years to come. But maybe you also don\u2019t love the idea of dropping thousands of dollars to pay a professional videographer. To those wrestling student debt, saving for a house, or just trying to keep the lights on, I say, consider getting creative.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Add it to your registry<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on what stage of life you and bae are in, chances are you already have a lot of the <em>stuff<\/em> you need. Offer your guests the privilege of contributing to a memory you\u2019ll cherish forever, instead of some obscure kitchen appliance that will likely live out its career as a shelf-warmer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Pay for raw footage only<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some videographers agree to film the day of and then hand off the unedited footage to you for a lower price*. This is a great option to explore if you or a friend knows their way around a video editing software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rehearsaluploads.withjoy.com\/uploads\/uploads\/2017\/01\/3rct6_njjbu-seth-doyle.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-27571\" src=\"https:\/\/rehearsaluploads.withjoy.com\/uploads\/uploads\/2017\/01\/3rct6_njjbu-seth-doyle-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"3rct6_njjbu-seth-doyle\" width=\"665\" height=\"444\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Crowdsource it<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a more guerrilla-style memento, consider creating a sort of Snapchat Story of your wedding (that won\u2019t disappear in 24 hours). Encourage your guests to take video on their phones, and find some strategic places to set up a couple cameras of your own. Hell, go crazy and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=K1iYd-1a0Mg\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">strap a GoPro to your officiant<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Ask your guests to upload their videos to a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.business.com\/categories\/online-file-sharing-services\/\" class=\"broken_link\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">file-sharing service<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Then, stitch all of it together into an unforgettable piece that replays your special day from 100 different perspectives.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Do it <i>Love Actually <\/i>style<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t love the idea of your guests disappearing behind their phones, find someone in your network who dabbles in amateur videography to capture the day for you. Although they may insist on doing it as a gift, offer to compensate them for their time, batteries, and any other equipment costs. (Just maybe avoid asking your best friend who\u2019s also in love with your fiance.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-57043 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/rehearsaluploads.withjoy.com\/uploads\/uploads\/to-me-you-are-perfect.jpg\" alt=\"to me you are perfect\" width=\"500\" height=\"213\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">*My sister chose this option for her wedding in June.
