Once you have all the footage from your wedding you will need to edit the videos together yourself or find a professional editor. There is some free software out there you could use to edit all the content together into a film, but that can take a lot of time, effort and skill.  You could sit back and get someone to add a professional touch. Or by buying Vidicrew’s editing plan it means you get a designated editor who will transform your content on a date of your choice.
