Today we're highlighting a newtrend that's out there that
couples are absolutely loving, andthat's wedding content creation.
While it may not have been on your radarwhen you first started planning, this
is something you may wanna consider.

(03:39):
It gets a lot of great behindthe scene moments, instantly
shareable memories, adding a wholenew layer to fun at your big day.
Right.
And before you say, well, I'vealready hired a photographer and
videographer, this is not the same thing.
This is something a little different.
And trust us, it fills the gap inbetween things you probably didn't

(04:02):
realize that you were missing.
Look photographers capturethe formal portraits.
Videographers, get these beautifulhighlight reels that they create for
you, but your content creator, they'rein the trenches with you capturing all
the real raw, candid moments you'll wannarelive tomorrow and share immediately.

(04:22):
Yeah.
And Sal, you, you might have experiencedthis before, when, uh, the photographers
capturing pictures of the bride gettingdressed or the groomsmen, well, a
content creator, what they're doingis the behind the scenes of that and
capturing the fun little moments thateverybody misses, but everybody remembers.

(04:45):
So the gentlemen all getting together,maybe having a beer together and
the funny chit chat that goes on.
These things are done by the contentcreator to capture so that you can
have something for your social media.
It also catches those things likethose quick hugs that you may
have forgotten about, but now youget to see it because it's there.

(05:06):
The laughter between photos, the crazydance floor moments, and what would
never make it on a formal highlight reel.
This is all the good stuff.

Content creators work fast,or at least they should.

(05:29):
You'll often get clips andphotos like the very next day.
Some even have pre edited Instagramreels or even TikTok already videos
before your brunch the next day.
That's the great thing abouthaving a content creator.
They process this stuff and editit and get it onto your social

(05:50):
media as quick as possible.
This is huge.
You don't wanna wait weeks oreven months to see your wedding.
You want something quick rightthere to look at and maybe
even show family and friends.
And look, your family and friends aregonna wanna see all this too, so they
can relive those moments and enjoy it.

(06:10):
Now let's make one thing clear, Sal,A content creator doesn't replace
your photographer or videographer.
Absolutely not.
They're an extra layerof telling your story.
They work alongside your pros.
Staying out of the way, capturingmoments in a candid and relaxed style.

(06:32):
I like to say that they're yourpoint of view, background session
people, because that's what they get.
They get their point of view,but they also get the background
and it's usually stuff that willbe lost forever because nobody
captured it on video or photography.
So they are really the peoplethat are in the middle.

(06:56):
They're getting the little thingsthat the photographer might
have missed or the little thingsthat the videographer will miss.
One of the great things about havinga content creator there, they are
gonna catch things that are gonna bemissed by your other professionals
and for different reasons.
You know, photographer and videographercan't be there every moment.
They're not gonna see every littlething and having a content creator,

(07:17):
you know, wandering around the wholeroom and finding all these great
little bits to, you know, sharewith you, and of course your family
and friends is a wonderful thing.
These are great things that add toyour wedding and you get to see them
right away and relive every moment.
Coming up next, more great reasonsto have a content creator that'll
help you with beautiful socialmedia posts, and we'll talk about

(07:42):
service options and potential costs.

Well, everyone, it's Wedding TipWednesday, but first a good marriage

(09:08):
is one where each partner thinksthey got the better end of the deal.
That's right, Sal, on today's Wedding TipWednesday, we're talking about the bustle.
Now the bustle is the cloth thattrails the dress that usually can be
folded up into the back of the dress.
Well, you have to figureout how to do this.

(09:30):
Bring someone with you to your dressfitting and have them record that on
their phone, on how to bustle the dress.
How it's all put together.
Furthermore, review and practicebefore the day with the people who will
actually be helping you with that bustle.
Sam, this is a tip I always talkto every single couple about.

(09:53):
I always say to the bride bring twopeople with you and actually have the
dress maker teach them how to bustlethere and have them do it a couple times
so they get a little muscle memory.
And you definitely wannavideo record this too.
By doing this there's less stress when itcomes to the day and it's so much quicker.
And our words are wise.

(10:14):
Stay away from ribbons.
They only take more time andthey're really confusing.
Buttons and hooks are the way to go.
And that's another Tip from Sal and Sam.

Thanks for joining us for ourdiscussion on how to transform
your wedding dreams into realitywith custom content creations.

(10:37):
I'm Sam from Atmosphere Productions.
And I'm Sal of After HoursEvents of New England.
We've already discussed how a contentcreator will catch the candid moments
of joy and they will help documentthe parts that the photographer
and videographer might miss.
If you are the type who wants topost a little sneak peek without

(10:58):
having to dig through blurry guestpictures, then this is for you.
Your content creator providesyou with beautiful, ready to post
memories that look great online.
Look, even if you're not big into socialmedia, there's something just so magical
about someone catching the unscriptedmoments of your wedding and seeing
it through a different person's eyes.

(11:20):
It feels real and it feels like you.
Let's talk about costs for a second.
Content is still relatively new, so pricesare gonna vary and they're gonna vary
from state to state and region to region.
So we're not gonna give youany pricing information.
Please go research this yourself.

(11:43):
But compared to traditional photographyand video packages, it's usually just a
fraction of those costs and the value thatyou'll be having is gonna be priceless.
You know, with my company, we'relooking to add this service
and Sam is absolutely right.
There's gonna be a wide range ofthings you could do from a full day
package to a partial day, coverageor just getting the ceremony.

(12:08):
It's something that's totally customizableand allows you to find something
that suits your day and your budget.
And Sal, let's be honest,day will fly by, right?
It goes by so quickly.
You will not catch every reactionor every laugh or every behind
the scene prank that was played.

(12:30):
A content creator can.
A content creator is gonna help yousee things through the eyes of your
guest and give you moments to lookback on while you wait for your
professional photos and videos.
So what should couples look forwhen hiring a content creator?
Well, as I said before, this isstill a relatively new field, but

(12:52):
the one thing that you want to makesure is that they match your vibe.
If you are an uptempo person who wantssomething very flashy and very hyped.
Then you don't want to pick a contentcreator who is very mellow and laid back.
Their style should reflect yourpersonality, not just a trend.

(13:14):
Totally agree with everythingyou just said, Sam.
And also you wanna checkabout turnaround time.
Some will do same day, somewill take a couple days.
But something that's really important, youneed to make sure they're a team player,
someone who's gonna work very closelywith your photographer, videographer,
and planner, and not get in the way.

(13:36):
One thing you should also makesure of is that these content
creators are dressed appropriately.
You know, if you are having a blacktie wedding, make sure that the content
creator is dressed appropriately.
Find out what they're going to wear.
Are they just gonna wearjeans and a t-shirt?
No.
You want them to be dressed asappropriately as your guests.

(13:59):
Your love story deserves to beshared and celebrated and remembered.
Because your love story, it'sworth capturing in the moment
and sharing for a lifetime.
So there you have it.
We've just explained how to transformyour wedding dreams into a reality
with custom content creations.

(14:20):
Whether you want those candid behindthe scene last, the emotional moments
before you walk down the aisle orsomething to post the next morning.
Adding a content creator to your weddingteam lets you relive your day in a
way that feels real, personal and fun.
It is not about makingyour wedding a production.

(14:40):
It's about preserving theauthentic story of your day.
The story you might miss in the moment,but will absolutely treasure later.
