FAQ

Here is some answers to our most frequently asked questions

What's so special about Origin Weddings?

Although we have pre-made packages, we openly customize our video and photo services to ensure newlyweds are receiving more bang for their buck. We make sure through all our interactions that we know exactly what you’re looking for, then we design a video and photo package tailored to a style you’ll love.

What are the next steps to book with Origin Weddings?

The next step after deciding to book with us is to make sure we are available for your date. We then set up a date to meet in person or online to sign the contract & pay a deposit to lock in your date.

How much is the deposit?

Our standard deposit amount is $1500.

What if something happens to my videographer or photographer?

It is very unlikly but incase of an emergency one of our other talented team members will fill in.

Do you edit all of my photos & videos?

Yes! Every single photo & video will go through the same post production process as the images & videos you see on our website.

Our Process

We believe it’s essential that you meet with your videographer(s)/photographer(s) to make sure you’re comfortable and confident with your team. During our first sit down, we establish a mood/tone, go over examples of our work and other inspirations you may enjoy, learn more about your tastes as individuals and together, design a template for how your video/photos should “feel”. Throughout our interactions, we ensure we understand what you expect from our team so we can ensure we deliver a final product that you can truly enjoy.

Do we have access to the RAWs? Can you send us the unedited photos/videos?

Yes, we provide all your raw/unedited files for you to keep.

Will our highlight film/video be included in the USB you will send us?

Typically we send out your USB/files right away so a-lot of the times your final videos will not be included. Your video will be available on youtube and a download link will be sent for you to download as-well.

What's a 8-10 week guarantee?

In the wedding industry, it’s not uncommon to hear newlyweds receiving their wedding video/photos 6-12 months after their wedding. To us, that’s too long. We know that seeing your video/photos as soon as possible truly enhances the whole experience of your wedding day, and keeps our couples satisfied. Therefore, all our video/photo packages guarantee a highlight film/photo gallery within the first 8-10 weeks.

Do you shoot cultured weddings?

Our experienced team has shot many many cultured weddings from indian, persian, arabic, jewish, fusion, chinese & many more.

Do you shoot anything else aside from weddings?

WOW, best decision ever. They did an AMAZING job onsite. They have great personalities and the chemistry was right… My main request was that I didn’t want to feel like I was being followed, and they truly made us feel comfortable. The result? An amazing highlight clip that perfectly captured us two and our special day and we’ll get to cherish that forever. Thank you guys! HIGHLY recommend them.

We interviewed many vendors; however, The Origin Weddings Team stood apart from the rest. The Team went well above and beyond in creating the best environment not only for the pictures and video but for every guest present. The quality of their work is phenomenal, vision is refreshing, professionalism is outstanding and delivery and communication unmatched.

They worked with our hectic schedule, were easy to get in touch with any time we had any questions, they were professional, on time, very easy to work with, easygoing, kept the mood light and fun, they captured every special moment without being intrusive, the video was ready well before our expectations, they reached out to the band that sang our first dance song and got their permission to use the song for our video (!). They went above and beyond for us and we love them for it and 100% recommend them without hesitation to anyone getting married.
