How to have a memorable wedding? It all starts with the wedding invitation that you send your guests. Traditionally, you will send out paper invitations to guests who you want to attend your wedding. A well made invitation should contain the date of the wedding, as well as the place or venue. There will also be a list of the entourage members.
Wedding invitations have also become more modern like everything else nowadays. With video invitations, you can do away with printing press companies and expensive stationery.
What are these video invitations? Many couples create the video themselves using video editors. There are computer programs around that will help you do this easily. If you have a computer, as well as a cam corder, you can do this on your own. You don’t have to contact a printing office to get these done. You can simply create the video and send it to your friends by email.
Here are the things you will need:
- a video camera
- a well-rehearsed speech
- a collection of photos for the slide show
- music to play in video as background sound
You can also send the video by parcel delivery. Many guests may not even have their own email addresses. The video can be converted into DVD as most people will have DVD players at home. The technique is to burn the file into a CD.
Here are the qualities that should be present in your video
- it should be like a movie’s trailer
- touching
- awe-inspiring
- should contain clear and beautiful pictures
The music playing in the background should be the theme song of the couple. Sweet memories should be captured by the photo slide show. A short speech should be added towards the end of the video so that the bride and groom can directly ask the viewer to attend.
If you want, you can also send out a mass invitation to all your facebook friends. It is simple enough to do this. You can set up a private youtube account and send the link to the video through your social pages. Make sure you edit your Facebook or Twitter settings so that only those invited can actually see the video.
