The whole weekend

Wedding weekend camcorder rental

The Wedding Camcorder's Core and Deluxe kits are 7-day rentals and The Full Feature is 10 days, so one booking covers the welcome party, rehearsal dinner, wedding and brunch. The kit arrives about 4 days before the wedding, and extra days cost $49 each.

How long is the rental?

The rental starts the day the kit is delivered and lasts the number of days in your package. For a Saturday wedding, the kit arrives around the Tuesday before.

PackagePriceRentalSaturday wedding: about
The Raw Tape$3995 daysTuesday to Saturday (the wedding day)
Core$7497 daysTuesday to Monday after the wedding
Deluxe$9997 daysTuesday to Monday after the wedding
The Full Feature$1,39910 daysTuesday to Thursday after the wedding

The Raw Tape's 5 days end on the wedding day itself, so if you want the Sunday brunch, add a day or two.

Can we add extra days?

Yes. Extra days are $49 each, up to 7, on any package. Add them when you book, for the brunch, the trip home, or the start of the honeymoon. Send the kit back with the prepaid UPS label by the last day of your rental; late returns are $99 a day.

Who keeps the camera between events?

Pick a camera captain: a friend whose job is to keep the camcorder moving at each event and to charge it overnight. Every kit comes with a shot list of the moments you chose and a one-page guide, so whoever picks it up knows what to film.

For a weekend with events in more than one place at once, like getting ready in two rooms, a second camera helps. Deluxe includes two and The Full Feature three; see two or three camcorders for your wedding.

What ends up in the film?

Everything your guests filmed across the weekend: the welcome drinks, the rehearsal toasts, the wedding, and the morning after. Core cuts a 3–5 min film, Deluxe 5–7 min, and The Full Feature 8–10 min plus the full ceremony and toasts as their own edit. You also get every raw clip within 24 hours of the kit reaching us.
