Wedding Event Highlight Video Editing

I have several hours of footage from a recent wedding and I need you to turn it into a polished, emotionally-driven highlight film. The goal is to let the couple relive the day—and share it easily with friends and family—through a concise, story-focused edit that feels cinematic rather than like a raw recap.

Here is what you can expect to work with:
• Multi-camera clips covering the full day, captured in 4K (mixed handheld and tripod shots).
• Clean audio feeds from the vows and speeches, plus ambient sound.
• A selection of licensed music tracks the couple already approved.

What I need from you:
• Curate the best moments across the day, weaving ceremony, first look, speeches, and candid interactions into a seamless narrative no longer than 5-7 minutes.
• Sync and balance dialogue, ambience, and music so transitions feel natural and emotional beats land.
• Light color grading that keeps skin tones true but adds a consistent, warm cinematic look.
• Simple titles for the couple’s names and date; no heavy motion graphics required.
• Final delivery in H.264 (1080p and 4K) plus a 60-second vertical cut ready for Instagram Reels/TikTok.

A short draft cut halfway through the process will help confirm pacing and song choices before you lock the edit. Once everything is approved, share project files (Premiere Pro or Final Cut) in case the couple ever needs future tweaks.

If you have wedding highlight reels in your portfolio, I’ll review them to make sure our styles align. Feel free to let me know if any additional assets or guidance would make the job smoother.
