Wedding Highlight Reel Video Edit

I have several hours of raw footage from my wedding ceremony and reception that now needs to be shaped into a polished highlight reel. The goal is a heartfelt, story-driven piece of around four to six minutes that lets friends and family relive the best moments at a glance.

All camera files (4K .mp4) and the separate audio tracks are already backed up to Google Drive; you will receive download access immediately. I’d like the finished reel to flow smoothly from vows to first dance, blending candid laughs, speeches, and dance-floor energy with tasteful transitions, color-graded shots, gentle speed ramps where they fit, and a licensed music bed that matches the mood. Natural audio—vows, toasts, crowd reactions—should be mixed in cleanly under the music so nothing important is lost.

Deliverables
• Main highlight reel, 1-2 min, 4K H.264
• A 60-second vertical cut for Instagram Reels/TikTok
• Editable project file (Premiere Pro or Final Cut is fine)

Acceptance criteria
• Color and exposure are consistent across all clips
• No jump cuts or jarring audio dips
• Only royalty-free or properly licensed music is used (please note the source)
• Final exports are free of watermarks and ready to share

Let me know your typical turnaround time once footage is downloaded, any sample highlight reels you’ve done in a similar style, and which editing platform you prefer. I’ll be available to answer questions quickly so the process stays smooth from rough cut to final approval.
