How long do you have your videographer?

We had contracted 8 hours. Ceremony at 2:30 so video started at 2. He voluntarily stayed 2 extra hours

7 hours, right now 4-11 (which would include the first look, scheduled at 4, ceremony starting at 6, reception, grand exit) I'm trying to decide to leave it or adjust the times so he gets some of the getting ready footage but that means no grand exit footage....decisions, decisions.....

6 hours (with the potential of adding an extra hour)

I haven't figure out the exact time but I figured 30 minutes prior to the ceremony to the end of his time commitment.

4 hours only. just cocktails, ceremony and the meal (6-10pm). i don't need shots of me getting ready, i HATE video of photography sessions (i immediately rejected any videographer who had more than a few seconds of that in their samples), and a few minutes of dancing kind of covers it.

adding videography was an "extra" for us after we realized we had more wiggle room in the budget, so we wanted to keep it as reasonably priced as possible.
