--- title: "Wedding Highlight Video Maker | WeddingEditor" url: https://www.weddingeditor.ai/wedding-highlight-video-maker/ last_updated: 2026-10-11 --- # Wedding highlight video maker that starts from your raw footage WeddingEditor makes wedding highlight videos for videographers. You upload the raw footage and audio from the whole day, answer a few optional questions about the people and moments that matter, and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes a Highlight Reel of about 5 minutes from that footage. It is published to your project, where you watch it and download a 1080p MP4. Up to two revision rounds are included if you want changes.

Nothing is generated or pulled from stock. - **Speech and natural sound intact**: The original audio recorded in your footage is kept, so vows, toasts and room sound stay as they were captured. - **Built around your notes**: The preference answers you give before paying, such as the people who must appear and the moments to include, are frozen with the order and guide the cut. - **Delivered as a 1080p MP4**: You stream it in the app, download it, and can download it again later from the same project. ## What is a wedding highlight video maker? A highlight video is the short film most couples share first: a few minutes that move through the day, from preparations to the last dance, built around the moments with the most feeling. A highlight video maker is whatever turns many hours of coverage into that cut. For most videographers that has meant their own evenings in an editor or a paid freelancer. WeddingEditor is a third route. It is AI editing built into a web app: the footage goes in through the browser, your preferences set the priorities, and the AI editing makes the cut. The point is not to replace your style but to hand you a strong, finished highlight you can deliver or refine. Not the same as: Not the same as a template app that sets photos to music. Here the highlight is cut from real wedding footage and keeps the recorded sound. ## How to get a highlight video made 1. **Start a Highlight Reel project** Create a wedding project and choose Highlight Reel as its deliverable. One project produces one edit. 2. **Upload the whole day** Add every clip and audio file from every camera. You do not need to cull, rename or sort anything first, and there is no cap on file count or total size. 3. **Point the edit at what matters** In the optional preferences, describe the feel you want, the balance of speech and ambient sound, the people who must appear and anything to leave out. 4. **Receive and review** Pay with One Wedding or a plan credit. Processing typically takes 24 to 72 hours. Watch the result in the app, download the MP4 and email notes if you want one of the revision rounds (up to two are included). ## What you get from this highlight video maker - **A fixed, known length**: The Highlight Reel is about 5 minutes, so there is no guessing what you will receive. - **Every camera in one project**: Footage from several cameras can go into one wedding project without sorting. - **Your priorities written down**: Preference answers on people, moments and things to avoid shape the edit. - **AI editing makes the edit**: The paid edit is made by WeddingEditor's AI editing, guided by your preferences. - **Revisions by email**: Up to two revision rounds are included; a failed render does not use one up. - **A standard file**: A 1080p H.264 MP4 that imports into Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro. ## Where the highlight maker stops - **One deliverable per purchase**: A project returns one Highlight Reel. A Social Teaser for the same wedding is a separate project. - **No in-app trimming**: Changes come through your email revision rounds, not through an editor inside the app. - **Widescreen 1080p only**: There is no 4K and no vertical version of the highlight. ## Highlight maker options compared | Question | Editing it yourself | Hiring a freelancer | WeddingEditor | |---|---|---|---| | Who cuts the highlight | You | One editor you manage | WeddingEditor's AI editing | | What you send | Nothing; you hold the files | Drives or links you arrange | Browser upload into a project | | How changes happen | You re-edit | Back and forth by message | Up to two rounds by email | | Length of the highlight | Whatever you choose | As agreed | About 5 minutes | ## What a highlight costs A single wedding is $119 one-time for one wedding.

WeddingEditor uses AI for its optional sample, which is made automatically from a selection of your clips. The paid Highlight Reel is made by WeddingEditor's AI editing from your whole upload, guided by your preference answers, typically within 24 to 72 hours. ### What does a wedding highlight video cost to have edited? With WeddingEditor a single wedding is $119 one-time for one wedding, or one credit on a monthly plan. One credit covers one wedding edit. ### Can I edit the highlight further myself? Yes. Download the MP4 and bring it into Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro to add music, titles or your own finishing. ### How long is the highlight? About 5 minutes. That is the only Highlight Reel length offered. ### Do I need to choose the best clips first? No. Upload everything you shot. You can name the moments that must appear in the preference answers instead of culling by hand. ### How long does it take? Processing typically takes 24 to 72 hours after you start it. There is no guaranteed turnaround. ### What if the highlight misses a moment I care about? Email your notes from the link in the app and the same edit is revised. Up to two revision rounds are included with every full edit, and a render that fails does not count as one of them. Naming must-include moments in the preferences before you pay is the best way to avoid the round trip. ### Can my second shooter upload their footage directly? Teammates who are signed in to your WeddingEditor team can add files through a team upload link that WeddingEditor sets up for you, so a second shooter does not have to hand you a drive first. ### Can I get a teaser and a highlight for one wedding? Each purchase or credit covers one deliverable, so a teaser and a highlight are two separate projects for the same wedding. ## Related guides - [Wedding video guides](https://www.weddingeditor.ai/wedding-video-guides/): Every head-term guide - [Wedding video length](https://www.weddingeditor.ai/wedding-video-length/): Why the highlight runs about 5 minutes - [Cinematic wedding video editing](https://www.weddingeditor.ai/cinematic-wedding-video-editing/): Steering the feel of the film - [AI highlight video generator](https://www.weddingeditor.ai/ai-highlight-video-generator/): What the AI does for the sample and the full edit - [Wedding highlight reel](https://www.weddingeditor.ai/wedding-highlight-reel/): The Highlight Reel deliverable in detail ## Get the highlight cut without the late nights Upload the wedding, name what matters and download the finished highlight.
