Cheap Videographer

Okay so my wedding is in 33 days, and I am in high stress mode right now. At the current moment there are, IMO, too many things still left to do, and they are mostly left undone thanks to a few family members who won't write any checks. Aside from that I recently found out that my ailing Grandfather will not be able to attend the wedding. I would very much like to have my ceremony videotaped for him to see at a later date but as it stands now we do not have a Videographer. I had looked up some a few months back, but at the time it was more of just a want, not a need and they were all rediculously overpriced, IMO. So... does anyone know of anyone that will do it for cheap? Any help is greatly appreciated!

(The wedding is taking place in Holly Springs, NC)

    I decided to hire a videographer last minute also, just for the ceremony, as I realized it was going to be a blur for me and I would want to look back on it and remember.  I just started emailing local companies and asking if they were available, telling them I was on a budget and asking what tehy could do...I got a lot better prices than I was expecting.  I think when you are this close to your date, if you are able to find someone with room on their schedules, they are going to want to book their dates, and are going to work with you on price, rather than not work at all, so they will be up for negotiation.

    Now, the product I got was not edited very much, since I didn't pay very much, but it was still better than having a guest do it or missing the whole thing altogether!
