Your Day in Motion
Cinematic Wedding Films with Heart
Your wedding day moves fast. The nervous laughter before the ceremony, the way your partner's voice cracks during the vows, the eruption of cheers when you walk back down the aisle together for the first time. These are the moments that photographs alone cannot fully capture. They need motion. They need sound. They need to be felt again exactly the way they happened. That is what our wedding videography is all about.
At SunnyT Productions, we are a husband and wife team based in Lake Stevens, Washington, and we bring an emotive, documentary-style approach to wedding videography with a cinematic polish that turns your day into something you will want to watch over and over again. We are not interested in producing stiff, overly produced wedding videos that feel disconnected from reality. Instead, we focus on genuine emotion, authentic movement, and the small details that make your celebration unlike anyone else's. Every film we create is a true reflection of who you are as a couple.
Having spent over eight years photographing and filming weddings throughout Snohomish County, Bothell, Everett, Mill Creek, Monroe, and the greater Pacific Northwest, we understand the rhythm of a wedding day inside and out. We know when the light will be perfect for portraits, when to step back and let a moment breathe, and when to move in close to capture the tears and the laughter that make your story uniquely yours.
How Much Does a Wedding Videographer Cost in Snohomish County?
Wedding videography packages at SunnyT Productions start at $2,800 for a cinematic highlight film with up to six hours of coverage. Our full-day collections with ceremony and reception editing range from $3,500 to $5,200. For the best value, our combined photography and videography bundles start at $7,500 and include two photographers, a dedicated videographer, a highlight film, and a full photo gallery. This bundled approach saves you significantly compared to hiring separate vendors and ensures your entire creative team communicates seamlessly throughout the day.
Every videography package includes a pre-wedding planning consultation, professional audio recording of your ceremony and speeches, color grading, licensed music, and delivery through a private online streaming link you can share with family and friends. We do not believe in nickel-and-diming you with surprise add-ons. What you see in the package is what you get, and we are always transparent about costs upfront.

What's the Difference Between a Highlight Film and Full Wedding Video?
A highlight film is a cinematic, music-driven edit that distills the most beautiful moments of your entire wedding day into a short, emotionally powerful film typically running 3 to 5 minutes. Think of it as the movie trailer of your love story. It is carefully crafted with licensed music, color grading, and editorial pacing to evoke the feeling of your day in a way that is perfect for sharing on social media or watching with friends and family. A full wedding video, on the other hand, is a comprehensive documentary edit that includes the complete ceremony with original audio, full speeches and toasts, the first dance, and other key reception moments. It typically runs 30 to 60 minutes or more.
Most of our couples choose a package that includes both formats. The highlight film becomes the piece you share and rewatch casually, while the full wedding video becomes the archival record you treasure for decades. Years from now, when you want to hear your grandmother's toast or relive the exact words of your vows, the full video will be there waiting. Together, these two deliverables give you the complete picture of your day from every emotional angle.
Do I Need Both a Wedding Photographer and Videographer?
While photography freezes individual moments in time, videography preserves motion, voice, and emotion in a way that photos simply cannot replicate. Hearing your partner's voice break during the vows, watching the flower girl dance across the reception floor, seeing the way your parents hugged you before the ceremony — these are the things you will want to experience again and again. At SunnyT Productions, we offer both photography and videography under one roof, which is a significant advantage over hiring separate vendors.
When your photographer and videographer are part of the same team, the coordination is seamless. There is no competition for angles, no confusion about the timeline, and no awkward introductions on the morning of your wedding. Our photo and video teams plan together, communicate through shared channels, and know each other's working style intimately. The result is better coverage, less stress for you, and a cohesive visual aesthetic across your photos and films.

What's Included in Our Wedding Videography Packages
Every wedding film we produce starts with understanding your story. During our planning consultation, we learn about the flow of your day, the moments that matter most to you, and the overall feeling you want your film to convey. On the wedding day itself, we arrive with professional cinema cameras capable of capturing stunning 4K footage, gimbal stabilization systems for smooth, cinematic movement, and dedicated audio recording equipment to ensure your vows and speeches sound crystal clear. Drone aerial coverage is also available for outdoor ceremonies and venues where permitted, adding breathtaking establishing shots of your venue and the surrounding Snohomish County landscape.
Our standard packages include a highlight reel edited to licensed music, full ceremony coverage with original audio, complete speeches and toasts, and the first dance. Premium packages add getting-ready footage, the grand exit, and extended reception coverage. Every film receives professional color grading to match our signature warm, cinematic look and is delivered via a private online streaming link with the option to download in full resolution. We also provide a 60-second social media teaser within two weeks of your wedding so you have something to share while the full edit is in progress.
How Long Is a Wedding Highlight Film?
A standard wedding highlight film from SunnyT Productions typically runs 3 to 5 minutes. This length is ideal for capturing the emotional arc of your day — from getting ready through the ceremony and into the celebration — without losing the viewer's attention. For couples who want a more expansive cinematic experience, our full coverage highlight films run 5 to 8 minutes and include additional moments such as extended getting-ready footage, more of the reception, and scenic venue shots.
The length of your highlight film is something we discuss during the planning process. Some couples prefer a tight, punchy 3-minute edit that hits all the emotional high points, while others want a longer piece that tells a more complete story. We tailor the edit to your preferences and to the natural rhythm of your day. Regardless of length, every highlight film is set to licensed music that complements the mood and features professional color grading for a true cinema-quality finish.
When Will I Receive My Wedding Video?
You will receive a 60-second teaser clip within two weeks of your wedding, perfect for sharing on social media while the excitement is still fresh. Your completed highlight film and full wedding video are delivered within 8 to 12 weeks. The editing process involves reviewing hours of footage, selecting the strongest moments, color grading every clip, mixing audio, licensing music, and carefully crafting the narrative arc of your film. This level of attention takes time, and we never rush the process because your wedding film deserves the same care and intention we bring to the day itself.
If you have a specific deadline — perhaps an anniversary celebration or a family gathering where you want to premiere your film — rush delivery is available for an additional fee. We are always happy to work with your timeline. Once delivered, your films are hosted on a private streaming link that you can share with anyone, and you receive full-resolution downloads to keep forever. For couples who want to build their wedding day timeline with both photo and video in mind, we offer detailed planning guidance to ensure every important moment is captured beautifully.
Can I Book Photography and Videography as a Bundle?
Yes, and bundling photography and videography together is the best value we offer. Our combined packages start at $7,500, which represents a significant savings compared to booking each service individually from separate vendors. Beyond the financial benefit, the real advantage is having one cohesive team that plans together, communicates seamlessly, and shares a unified creative vision for your wedding day.
When you bundle with SunnyT Productions, you get two photographers and a dedicated videographer who already know each other's workflow. There is no territorial jostling for the best angle during the first kiss, no miscommunication about the timeline, and no duplication of effort. Your photo gallery and wedding film will share a consistent aesthetic — the same warm tones, the same attention to genuine emotion, the same storytelling sensibility. Many of our couples tell us that bundling was one of the best decisions they made during their wedding planning. To start building your custom package, book a consultation with us today.
Our Cinematic Approach to Wedding Filmmaking
We describe our style as emotive documentary filmmaking with cinematic polish. That means we prioritize real moments over staged ones, but we bring a level of technical craft and visual artistry that elevates the final product beyond a simple home video. We shoot with professional cinema cameras that produce rich, detailed footage even in challenging lighting conditions. Our gimbal stabilization systems allow us to move through your day with fluid, graceful camera work that feels intentional without being intrusive. And when the venue and conditions allow, our licensed drone captures sweeping aerial perspectives that establish the scale and beauty of your setting.
In the edit suite, we take the same cinematic approach. Every clip is individually color graded to achieve our signature warm, film-inspired look. Audio is carefully mixed so that your vows are clear, the music swells at the right moments, and ambient sound creates a sense of place. We treat every wedding film as a standalone piece of storytelling — not a montage of clips set to a song, but a narrative with a beginning, a middle, and an emotional crescendo that reflects the arc of your day.
