FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why have your wedding day filmed by professional company?
Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime, unrepeatable event. So why burden the responsibility of making a priceless recording of the biggest day in your lives on poor Uncle Harry with his un-tested new camcorder? Chances are, you’ll end up with a three hour tape of muffled audio and grainy visuals with the date and time stamped in the corner. Why take the risk?
The Fenton Experience’s wedding day films are stylishly produced by talented camera crews using professional equipment that are guaranteed to deliver an outstanding result. Your film is then creatively edited and presented on a DVD or Blu-ray disc that you and your family will cherish forever.

Can we choose what music to include in our wedding day film?
Yes, absolutely. The Fenton Experience will purchase all necessary copyright licences, allowing us to record or dub music of your choice onto your wedding day film. All you need to do is supply us with a genuine copy of the track on an original CD, or as a digital file (MP3 or Wav format) with appropriate proof of purchase. We will discuss music with you closer to the date of your wedding.
We want to send a copy to a relative/friend who lives abroad. Can we get a copy that is compatible with DVD players in other regions?
Yes. The Fenton Experience is able to convert your film from PAL to the NTSC standard that is compatible with players outside the UK. Contact us for more information and prices.
What sets you apart from other wedding videographers?
The Fenton Experience continues the work of The Graham Fenton Experience which was established as an industry leader for over 20 years, and our highly experienced camera crews work in TV and media when not with us. The Fenton Experience offers a range of different packages that can be tailored to suit your specific requirements. But above all else, it’s our level of professionalism, creativity and attention to detail that sets us apart from our competitors, and that is clearly evident in each of our films.
Will our wedding day film be used on your showreel or other promotional material?
Unless you specifically request that you do not want us to be able to use footage recorded at your wedding, we reserve the right to use footage/stills for promotional purposes. This includes appearing on our DVD show-reel, on our website, and on Wedding TV.
Do you require a deposit?
We require a £500, non refundable deposit in order to secure a booking.
Can we pay in instalments?
Yes, you can pay in monthly instalments via standing order, for up to ten months prior to the wedding day.
What equipment do you use?
This is something we’re often asked, but and the simple answer is that it’s always the best for the job. Technology changes at a dizzying speed, and we will always use the best digital equipment available. But it’s also the level of creativity and expertise that The Fenton Experience’s talented camera crews bring to each wedding day film that really matters . However, to satisfy those who are technically minded or who have a casual interest in film production, our crews use normally use Sony cameras such as the Z1 or DSR 450, with Sennheiser microphones. Editing is normally carried out on top-of-the-range computers and Avid software.
Can we have our film in another format other than DVD?
Yes, we are able to provide you with your wedding day film in a number of different formats, including iPod/iPhone compatible, PSP and other mobile devices. Contact us for more information and prices. Tape formats such as VHS are sadly no longer supported though.
