Already outsourcing your wedding edits? Here is what changes with WeddingEditor
If you already send weddings to a freelance editor or an editing agency, you know the routine: ship the drives, write a brief, wait for a slot, then trade notes. WeddingEditor keeps the part that works, handing off the edit, and changes the mechanics. You upload in the browser, answer the same kind of brief as preference questions, and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the film for your project, with up to two revision rounds by email.
For videographers who have already decided not to edit everything themselves and are weighing how they hand off.
Signing up is free. You pay or use a plan credit when you start a wedding's edit.

The friction in a typical outsourcing setup
Shipping and transfer
Drives in the mail or large cloud transfers to someone else's storage add days before editing starts, and a missing card means another round.
Briefs that get lost in translation
A freelance editor never met the couple. Unless your notes are perfect, the grandmother or the best line of the toast can still end up on the cutting room floor.
Waiting for a slot
Good editors are busiest exactly when you are. In peak season your wedding waits in their queue as well as yours.
WeddingEditor is a different way to hand off the edit, not another person to manage. You upload straight from the browser into a project, without sorting or renaming. The brief is built in: questions about the film's feel, the balance of speech and music, the people who matter, the moments that must appear and what to avoid. WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the Highlight Reel or Social Teaser, and revisions are an email away. There is no queue of other clients' weddings to wait behind and no editor's calendar to book around, and the cost of each wedding is known before it starts.
How the hand-off works
The pieces that replace shipping, briefing and chasing.
Browser upload
Footage goes from your computer to the project, up to 5 GB per file and with no limit on file count or total size.
Structured brief
The preference questions turn your notes into specific instructions: include my grandmother, keep the father's speech, less dance floor.
Predictable price per wedding
One purchase or one credit covers one wedding's edit, so the cost of each hand-off is known before you start.
Up to two revision rounds
Included with every full edit. Email your notes and the same edit is revised.
Your delivery, your brand
The finished MP4 is yours to finish, title and deliver. WeddingEditor never contacts your couple.

Learn moreQuestions from videographers who outsource
Is WeddingEditor an editing agency?
No. WeddingEditor is a web app built for wedding videographers. Its AI editing makes the film from your footage and preference answers, and the edit is delivered to your project.
Can I keep my freelance editor for some weddings?
Yes. Many businesses send premium packages to a person and other weddings to WeddingEditor. Each wedding is its own project.
How do I pass on my house style?
Choose the film style and audio approach in the preferences and describe what you want in the notes. For a strict house look, add your titles and finishing in your own editor afterwards.
How long does it take compared with an outsourced editor?
Processing typically takes 24 to 72 hours from when you start it, with no guaranteed turnaround.
Do I need to send drives?
No. Everything is uploaded in the browser into the wedding's project.
Who talks to the couple?
You do. WeddingEditor never sends anything to your couple.
What happens to the people my editor knew to feature?
Write them into the must-include questions for each wedding: the grandmother, the best man, the sister who gave the reading. Those instructions tell WeddingEditor what it should not have to guess, and you can use the avoid question for clips you never want in a film, like the camera test before the ceremony.
