Wedding social media reels editing

A wedding social reel is a 15–60 second vertical video made for Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts. It usually centers on one moment or idea (a first look, a toast, the dance floor, a getting-ready detail) and is paced for a phone screen. Reels start at $99, come back in 7 business days and include 2 revisions.

Couples share reels, and you post them. Short vertical video is where engaged couples scroll while they look for vendors, so a steady stream of reels keeps your work in front of the people you want to book.

The problem is time. Re-cutting each highlight film into vertical clips is a whole extra evening per wedding. Ordering reels alongside your main edit means you get platform-ready content from every wedding without doing it yourself.

Reel ideas from one wedding: – The first look, start to finish – One toast line that got the biggest laugh – Getting-ready details: dress, rings, letters – The grand entrance or first dance – A “day in 30 seconds” recap – The send-off

• Vertical-native composition. We choose and reframe shots for 9:16. We don’t just center-crop the widescreen edit.
• A fast hook. The first second has to earn the second second.
• Caption-safe framing. Faces and action stay clear of the areas where platforms place usernames, captions and buttons.
• Readable on mute. On-screen text if your brief asks for it, sized for a phone.
• One idea per reel. A reel that tries to show the whole day usually shows nothing.

Trending sounds on Instagram and TikTok are licensed for use inside those apps, not for video files we export. We deliver reels with licensed music or tracks you supply. We can also deliver a version with clean audio and no music, so you can add a trending sound in the app before posting. Tell us which you prefer in your brief.

A reel is vertical-only and built around one moment, mostly for your marketing. A teaser ($149) is a 30–60 second trailer for the whole wedding, delivered in both 16:9 and 9:16. If you want something that works on YouTube and Instagram, choose the teaser.

• Aspect ratio: 9:16 vertical
• Length: 15–60 seconds, matched to your brief
• Resolution and codec: to your delivery spec in the brief (for example 1080×1920, H.264)
• Safe zones: faces, action and on-screen text kept clear of the top, bottom and right-hand areas that platforms cover with interface elements
• Captions: burned-in text if your brief asks for it

There’s no fixed rule. Many videographers post one reel from each wedding, plus extra reels from weddings with especially strong moments: a funny toast, an emotional first look, a great location. Order as many as you’ll actually post. Reels start at $99 each.

• The moment or idea you want the reel built around, or “editor’s choice”

• On-screen text, if you use it, and your fonts
• Your handle or logo, if you add one to the final frame
