The Credit Crunch and your wedding!

Let's be honest. The credit crunch and slow down of spending has had a definitive impact on businesses around the country and people are understandably less eager to part with their money, even when it comes to their big day. A few years ago the wedding video industry saw a surge of popularity as people began to acknowledge the benefit of capturing their day on film. Through trial and error it eventually became obvious that there were a lot of companies out there which produced a less than professional product and so we saw an increase in people booking higher end services wanting to be safe in the knowledge that their wedding video was going to exceed their expectations.

Unfortunately the recession has our previously eager clientelle backpeddling and wondering if they can get that kind of quality for less. Turning to companies that can afford to charge between £400 and £800 because they have a full time job on the side which pays the mortgage. The problem with these "fly by nighters" is, well, they have another job on the side so their attention is never entirely on your wedding. There are exceptions to this, we are happy to acknowledge. Some companies are just starting out and need the experience so are willing to charge less, but then remember again, you're paying less for a lack of experience.

SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE YOU AND US?

Well, we have come under pressure to lower our prices for dates that we are yet to pick up, but the quality of our product has not dropped. In fact if anything we are working harder to make sure that our wedding videos stand out amongst the rest of our competition. We can't tell you how to spend your money, but we do hope that you will think carefully before compromising too much on this aspect of your wedding day. You may regret it in the long run.

Welcome to the new website. Launched in May 2009. Our previous website design served us well for over 2 years and received many compliments from clients. We felt, however that we needed a cleaner design and one which allowed more scope for expanding as that indeed is what the company is doing. This website is now up to date in terms of information and design since launching our Touchstone Photography website. We hope that you enjoy the new design elements which we think are more calming. There is a lot more information on here though so make sure you've got time to look through the site properly to hopefully get all the information about us and our services you will ever need to be able to make an informed decision about which company you entrust your wedding day memories to! You can still order a free Wedding DVD Demo, but you can also watch more samples online than we previously had. We look forward to meeting you!
