Did You Use a Videographer? If so, I have some questions...

I am getting ready to book my videographer and am tring to decide on a package.  Here are my questions:

1. How many hours were in your package?   Was this time too much, too little?
2. How many cameras did you have? 
3. If you had multi-cameras how were they used?  (i.e.  at the ceremony, one with you and the BP and one with your DH and the GM, etc.)
4.  How many DVDs/Blu Rays did you get with your package?

Thanks in advance ladies.

    We will be using a videographer - we're not married yet, but HTH!

    1. We have 6 hours in our package for the wedding day and 2 hours for the rehearsal. I think 6 hours is enough - we just need the ceremony, entrance of wedding party and couple, first dance, cutting of cake, bouquet/garter toss and other memorable moments and I think 6 hours is more than enough time especially since we have 2 photographers for unlimited hours on the wedding day.

    2. One camera/one videographer

    3. N/A

    4. We get 4 DVD's with our package (don't remember the time limit on for each DVD).

    We are having a videographer.  Just one for 3 hours, but we are not having a huge traditional wedding, so he can go between me and my FI for prewedding shots.

    [QUOTE]I am getting ready to book my videographer and am tring to decide on a package.  Here are my questions:

    1. How many hours were in your package?   6.5
    Was this time too much, too little? I think it's enough will find out in 17 days though. lol
    2. How many cameras did you have?  2
    3. If you had multi-cameras how were they used?  1 stationary and one mobile
    4.  How many DVDs/Blu Rays did you get with your package? 1 I didn't do Blu Rays since I don't believe they are catching on as quickly as people thought. Mine will be filmed in pretty high grade standard quality and if I need to convert to a HD dvd later on, it won't be a problem.
    Thanks in advance ladies.
