Rosana from Shotwell Productions hosts Vanessa on the Real Brides podcast to discuss her two-part wedding—a micro ceremony and a larger June reception at the Chauncey Hotel—and why she chose to invest in videography. Paying for the wedding themselves, Vanessa and her husband cut back on florals to afford video, realizing how priceless it is to relive moments, voices, and emotions that photos can’t capture. Watching their wedding films each anniversary lets them reconnect with the laughter, speeches, and energy of the day.
Vanessa also highlights the importance of working with vendors you trust and connect with. For couples debating videography, she advises at least getting a highlight reel—prioritize lasting memories over fleeting details. As she puts it, it’s an investment that continues to pay off years later.
