Wedding videographer in Bregenz

A wedding videographer in Bregenz is a filmmaker who records your wedding day with moving pictures and sound, the vows, the speeches, the music and the people, and edits it into a short highlight film and, if you like, a longer documentary cut. In Bregenz many couples move part of the day onto the water, and that changes how a film is made. Vorarlberg Lines names the MS Stadt Bregenz as one of its two wedding ships: two salons with 114 and 88 seats, 80 seats outside, 300 guests permitted in total, and the largest dance floor of the wedding-suited boats once the salons are cleared.

On board we film with compact gimbals rather than sliders, because the ceiling height in the salons is 2.1 metres, and we place small microphones for the speeches early, before the engines and the wind take over. The operator itself mentions an interreligious blessing held in the Bregenz bay, so a ceremony afloat is no exotic idea here. Typical coverage is eight to ten hours with two filmmakers; you receive a highlight film of four to eight minutes, the full ceremony and speeches, and licensed music.

Location ideas in Bregenz & Lake Constance

01
MS Stadt Bregenz
Upper deck with a bar, a terrace-style free deck and two salons that can be cleared for dancing; good for a reception and the evening.
02
Harbour mole at dusk
When the ship returns, the mole and the lit harbour give the closing scenes of the film without a long drive.

Good to know

Tell the videographer which salon hosts the speeches; we need 20 minutes on board before guests arrive to set up sound.
For a June wedding plan the sunset cruise for about 20.30; the sun goes down around 21.10–21.20.
Choose a second filmmaker for ship weddings: one stays on deck, the other films in the salon.

Frequently asked questions

Can a wedding videographer film on a ship in Bregenz?

Yes. Vorarlberg Lines offers the MS Stadt Bregenz and the MS Alpenstadt Bludenz as wedding ships from Bregenz harbour. A wedding videographer films the ceremony, the cruise and the party on board; agree power sockets and set-up time with the operator.

How long is a wedding film from Bregenz?

Most couples choose a highlight film of four to eight minutes from their Bregenz wedding, plus the complete ceremony and speeches as separate clips. A longer documentary cut of 20 to 40 minutes can be added.

Do we need a photographer and a videographer for our Bregenz wedding?

Photo and video cover different things, and many Bregenz couples book both. On a ship space is limited, so a wedding videographer and photographer who already work as a team move more easily around each other.
