Filming my brothers wedding went alright. My first tip would be to not get blind drunk the night before (thank god for tripods!)

But seriously, things went alright, although i wish i had planned where i was going to be stood for the ceremony. I had to stay seated the whole time so there is just one shot really, apart from a few pans, and i did use a second back camera to help with cutaways in edit.

My only major problem was sound. I knew this would be a problem, but i assumed that the speeches would be on a mic, so at least the whole room could hear them. They weren't, and my other brother who was best man isn't the loudest of speakers, so the best man speech was pretty useless. I couldn't afford radio mics, though they would be my first choice, and i reccomend even using a plug in mic on a long lead. It might look very unprofessional, but not as unprofessional as the wedding video will look without the speeches.

Many thanks for everyones help, it really did help me. And definitley plan as much as possible before.

Mike
