Classic Enhancements
Designed to capture the emotion and significance of the day, our "Classic Enhancements" bring depth, vibrance and heightened feeling to your video memories.  Although even our most basic package magically captures your special day, "Classic Enhancements" insures your wedding video will become a treasured keepsake you enjoy watching and sharing with loved ones often throughout the years to come.

Second Camera

"For every action there is an equal (and opposite) reaction." What is more important: The action of the Bride coming down the aisle or the re-action on the Groom's face as he watches her making her entrance and progressing toward him? ; The action of the Best Man's toast or the re-action of the Newlyweds laughter and tears of love as he celebrates their union? ; The action of the Bride and her Father dancing or the re-action of the Mother-of-the-Bride looking on in nostalgic remembrance? These are but a few of the choices one cameraperson must make. Our "2nd Camera" enhancement takes the nerve-racking decision making away and makes sure you do not miss a single smile, tear or close-up of a fleeting glance of pride and love. You can choose to have the 2nd Camera at the Ceremony only or at both the Ceremony and Reception. Either one you choose...this enhancement will prove to be your greatest investment.

"Classic Opening"

A Classic Video Original -sets the tone for your Wedding Video. With the music of your choice we custom design a film-style opening sequence featuring you as the stars! It is a teaser preview of what's to come.

A Classic Treasure

(Your Wedding Day Dream Video) Although listed among our enhancements, "A Classic Treasure" is not an enhancement at all but rather a treasure all its own.  Here we compose an entirely separate video for you comprised of all the most spectacular events of the day.  Approximately 15 minutes in length, your "Classic Treasure" is ideal for showing others and viewing yourselves whenever you need a "quick-fix".  Through use of special effects and a personalized soundtrack we create the wedding day of your dreams; an overture of your wedding tale which is guaranteed to amuse, delight and move you. The more video coverage you have of the day the more complete your treasure. Do not underestimate the emotional impact of this enhancement.

Bride's Preparation

At least half of the beauty of your wedding day is the nervous anticipation and excited preparation that goes along with it. You do not want to miss out on forever capturing those emotions. The make-up application, buttoning of the dress and adjusting of the veil are but a few of the carefully planned images we capture and then slow down for dramatic intensity and set to swelling cinematic orchestration. It is a guarantee this segment of your video will become one of your favorites. The biggest regret we hear is when a couple does not choose to start their coverage with the Bride's preparation.  For even greater coverage why not include the Groom's preparation as well?! Cutting back and forth between the two can be quite entertaining!!!!

Sample Video Clips

Photo Session
The "picture taking" process is an enormous part of your wedding day. Most likely, you will never have more pictures taken of you in your life. While your still photographs will always remain treasured, nothing compares with "behind the scenes" footage of the two of you and your wedding party while creating those wedding album stills. It is in those precious moments that your personalities are truly captured. Our "Photo Session" enhancement brings together highlights of the ceremony and footage from your "picture taking", sets them to music and acts as a wonderful segue to the reception. Do not miss out on forever catching those priceless moments "at the park". Remember, no one at the cocktail hour had a chance to see them and we will probably catch some even the two of you may have missed!

Musical Highlights   

We like to think of the "Highlights" enhancement as your personal, wedding day music video.  Choosing the most memorable footage and incorporating a full range of special effects we create a touching montage set to the song of your choice, which recaps the day's "stand-out" moments. You may decide to extend the viewing pleasure by adding an additional song; maybe one up-tempo and fun and the other slow and romantic. Whether one song or more, we guarantee this enhancement is the one you, your family and friends will watch most often!

Creative Bridal Credits   

If you haven't guessed by now, we at Classic Video Productions love to break the "standard mold'' and get creative. Why have a scroll of names at the end of your tape when you can have so much more?! Maybe some footage of each Bridal Party member and a "freeze" of him or her as their name appears under them would strike your fancy...or ...our favorite.... "Out-takes"- those funny moments that happen throughout the day that don't quite seem appropriate in the main portion of the video!

Sample Video Clips

Interview Tributes   

To end your video on an emotionally "high note" you might choose to use our Interview Tributes.. a Classic Video original... which overlays the audio of your bridal party's stand out interview responses (which neither of you have heard) onto black and white, slow- motion video of each bridal party member throughout the course of the day. The effect is a spectacular tribute to both your bridal party and yourselves. It is guaranteed to move you from laughter to tears and back again. The possibilities of this enhancement are limited only by limiting your imaginations. Lets get creative together!

Honeymoon Video/Photo Montage

Although your Honeymoon is not an actual part of the wedding day itself, it is a tremendous part of your wedding. Our "Honeymoon Video or Photo Montage" enhancement allow you to have all your wedding memories carefully preserved together in one place.

Specialty Enhancements

A Classic Love Story Back to List
How did you meet? Describe your courtship? The proposal? What depth of emotion has brought you to the point of knowing, without a doubt, this is the person who is meant to be your partner in life? Our "Love Story" enhancement answers these questions more than words alone could ever do. Through music, color, images, sometimes a bit of humor and reenactment and, of course, the Happy Couple, we will bring the feeling of your Love and the Story of that love to life! You can choose to keep your story private or you may wish to share it with your guests at the reception. Either way, we will work closely with and for you to make sure your "Love Story" is told beautifully.

Photo Reflection Montage Back to List
Maybe your Love Story is best told through photographs, in which case you would choose a "Photo Reflection Montage". This visual history and progression through the years is sure to captivate your viewers. With the use of digital editing we add motion and music for emotional impact. The number of photographs and music used is up to you- if you enjoy looking through old photo albums you will LOVE creating, watching and sharing your "Photo Reflection Montage"!!!
Reception Presentations Back to List

The newest and hottest video enhancement! This enhancement features a 10-foot digital projection presentation at the reception. Ideally shown just before the entrance of the Bride and Groom into the reception, this serves as a brilliant drum roll involving your guests in the essence of the celebration...your story, your history, your love! You can chose to present your Love Story Interview, Music Video, Photo Reflection Montage or...all three. The emotional involvement and reaction this enhancement generates in your guests is UNBELIEVABLE- they will talk about it for years to come!!!

Spotlight Segments Back to List

Our "Spotlight Segment" enhancement has to be the most difficult of all our enhancements to describe and yet is the one enhancement that allows the union of your individual lives to shine most brilliantly. The reason? Each of your (4) "Spotlight Segments" is individually designed with meticulous care to capture the uniqueness of each person and/or group spotlighted and the special relationship you share with them. As a result, the options and combinations of options are practically without limit. In essence, our "Spotlight Segments" are a way for you to pay tribute to the special people in your lives who have greatly enhanced and impacted who you both are today. In reality, each segment is a five-minute, multi-layered, intricate weave of audio and video. Each one is distinctively tailored to assure the individuality and importance of each relationship is realized and forever immortalized on tape. There is no better way to let those closest to you know the importance they have played in shaping the person you have become than by spotlighting them on your video. Ask us for some ideas and examples of how your "Spotlight Segments" may look, sound and feel.

Flashback Edit Back to List
Our "Flash-back Edit" enhancement is designed especially for those eager to break the "standard mold". Rather than the traditional, chronological wedding video, this video is created entirely in a "flash-back" format. We interview you after the wedding and the way you remember your day is the way your video is composed. Your interview footage acts as the transition between the events of the day. This will be sure to surprise and impress your viewers! Feel like thinking outside the box"?!
Blue Screen Interviews Back to List
The "Blue Screen Interviews" enhancement is our way of breaking away from standard wedding interviews. Standard wedding (or "table") interviews usually result in "All the best to you both" or "Have a great time on your honeymoon" responses, which we have all seen (or maybe even said ourselves) before. Wouldn't you like something a bit more personal on your video? If so, this enhancement is for you. We ask questions carefully worded to elicit heartfelt, personal and full responses. By taping them in front of a Blue Screen we are able to insert photographs, video footage, beautiful landscapes (the possibilities are endless) into the background. The result is a striking, layered effect that is sure to impress your viewers. Why go "standard" when you can stand out?!
8mm Film Back to List
Nothing beats the look, or rather, the feel of old home movies. Our "8mm Film" enhancement brings that feeling to your video memories. By shooting with 8mm film (black and white looks best) and inserting the footage within a letterbox format on screen we are able to add a nostalgic feel to your video. It is a wonderful "little extra"
