# An elegant wedding teaser that opens on the setting

An elegant Social Teaser makes its first impression with the setting or a single detail rather than with people or noise: a chandelier, a staircase, the train of the gown, a candlelit table. It then shows the couple in one or two graceful moments and ends on a composed image, often the two of them framed by the venue. Ask for that order in the preference questions and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the teaser from your footage, delivered in widescreen.

An elegant teaser is mostly images, music and a little room sound. Speech usually waits for the highlight or your longer film.

## How to brief an elegant teaser

1. **Make a Social Teaser project** Select Social Teaser when you create the project. It is the project's single edit, so an elegant highlight of the same wedding is another project with its own purchase or plan credit. Upload the venue, detail and couple footage the teaser could use.
2. **Name the opening detail and closing frame** Choose Romantic & Elegant for the feel. In the moments question write the detail or setting the teaser should open on, the graceful moment in the middle, and the frame you want at the end. Keep it to those few choices.
3. **Watch and deliver it yourself** Processing typically takes 24 to 72 hours. Watch the finished teaser in your project and download the MP4; WeddingEditor never sends anything to your couple, so you decide when it goes out. Up to two revision rounds by email are included.

## Opening and closing beats for an elegant teaser

Elegant teasers are built on a precise first and last image. Notes like these set them.

- **Open on a detail**: "Open on the wax-sealed place card with her name, candle flickering behind it."
- **Open on the setting**: "Or open on the chandelier in the empty ballroom, then tilt down to the tables."
- **Middle**: "Her train following her down the staircase, then the veil lifting at the altar."
- **Close on a frame**: "End on the two of them under the arch from the far end of the aisle."
- **Keep out**: "No speeches, no guests dancing, no bar."

## What an elegant teaser needs

- **One strong detail or setting shot**: The opening image sets the tone for everything after it. A carefully filmed detail or a steady wide of the dressed venue gives the teaser its refined start.
- **Graceful movement**: The gown on a staircase, a veil lifting, the couple walking through the venue. One or two such moments are usually enough to carry the middle of an elegant teaser.
- **Music and room sound, not chatter**: Music with live strings, a pianist or simply the quiet of the room suits an elegant teaser better than crowd noise. Say which real sound should come through.
- **Widescreen only**: The Social Teaser is a 1080p widescreen MP4; there is no vertical version, so reframing for a phone feed is done in your own editor.
- **A project of its own**: Each project makes one edit, so an elegant teaser and an elegant highlight of the same wedding are two projects, each using a purchase or a credit.

## Beats of an elegant teaser

| Beat | Purpose | How to brief it |
|---|---|---|
| Opening detail or setting | Establishes the refined tone at once | Name the exact shot |
| Attire in motion | Shows grace before showing faces | Point to the train, veil or tailoring shot |
| The couple | Introduces the people in a composed moment | One moment, framed by the venue |
| Room sound | Keeps the tone calm | Say whether strings or quiet should be heard |
| Closing frame | Ends on composure rather than noise | Name the final image |

## What is an elegant Social Teaser?

A Social Teaser is the shorter WeddingEditor deliverable and the only edit of its project. An elegant one opens on the setting or a detail, shows the attire and the couple in graceful moments and ends on a composed frame, made by AI editing from your footage and notes.

Not the same as: Not a vertical clip. The teaser is delivered in widescreen; a vertical crop for phone-first platforms is something you make after download.

## Elegant teaser questions

### Should an elegant teaser open on people or on the venue?

Most open on the venue or a detail and introduce the couple a moment later. If the couple themselves are the most striking image, such as the staircase entrance, opening on them works too.

### Does an elegant teaser need speech?

Rarely. Music and live strings usually carry it, and speech is left to the highlight. If one short line is essential, name it.

### What if I did not film the venue empty?

The teaser can only use what you uploaded. Point to the cleanest venue shots you have, or open on a detail instead.

### Can I order an elegant teaser and a highlight?

Yes, as two projects. Each project produces one edit and uses its own purchase or plan credit.

### Does the teaser have music?

Yes. Music and real wedding audio are used together, balanced by your audio preference, so a quartet in the room can still be heard where it matters.
