A Ghanaian wedding teaser that opens on kente and drums
A Social Teaser is the short edit the couple shares first, so it has to grab attention quickly and leave people wanting the full film. Ghanaian weddings give you plenty to open with: kente in bright colors, families arriving together, drummers, the bride's entrance. You pick the opening and closing beats in the preference questions, and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the teaser from your footage as a widescreen 1080p MP4.
A Social Teaser is one project's edit. A highlight of the same wedding is a separate project.

How to brief a Ghanaian wedding teaser
- 1
Choose Social Teaser for the project
Create the project and pick Social Teaser. Upload the footage you want it drawn from; a teaser of the traditional marriage alone can use just that day's files.
- 2
Name the opening and the closing
Use the moments question to say what should come first, such as the bride's entrance in kente, and what should end it, such as the couple dancing with both families. Add anything to avoid.
- 3
Receive it and decide when to share
After processing, typically 24 to 72 hours, watch the teaser in the app and download it. WeddingEditor does not post it or send it to the couple; that is up to you.
Opening and closing beats for a Ghanaian teaser
Open on color
The two families walking in together in their kente, or the canopy filling up before the event starts.
Open on sound
A drummer's first beat or a cheer as the bride appears, if your camera caught it cleanly.
A single line of speech
One short line from a spokesperson or a parent, so viewers hear a voice from the day.
The middle
Quick moments of the bride and groom, the rings or the drinks, and the bridal party in matching cloth.
Close on the couple
The couple laughing or dancing together, ideally with both families around them.
What to hold back
The full consent exchange, the vows and the speeches. A teaser that shows everything leaves nothing for the highlight you deliver later.
What a Ghanaian teaser needs
A clear first moment
A teaser is watched quickly, often on a phone. Start with the strongest image of the day rather than arrivals or setup.
Color does the work
Kente and coordinated family cloth are what many viewers recognize first, so they make a natural opening.
Widescreen, not vertical
The teaser is delivered as a widescreen 1080p MP4. If you need a vertical crop for social media, make it yourself after download.
Recorded sound and music, balanced
WeddingEditor keeps the sound in your footage and uses music alongside it. Want a song the couple chose? Swap it in with your own editor once the file is downloaded.
Leave the rest for the film
The teaser hints at the day; the full story belongs in the highlight or the longer film you deliver.
Ghanaian teaser beats and how to brief them
| Beat | Purpose | How to brief it |
|---|---|---|
| Opening image | Stop the scroll | "Start on the bride's entrance in kente." |
| A voice | Make it personal | "Include one line from her father." |
| Quick middle | Show the scale of the day | "A few seconds of the families dancing." |
| Closing image | Leave people smiling | "End on the couple laughing at the reception." |
What is a Ghanaian wedding Social Teaser?
A Social Teaser is a short edit made from a project's footage, chosen when you create the project. For a Ghanaian wedding it usually leads with color, sound and the couple, and leaves the ceremony detail for a longer film.
It is not a vertical reel and not a full highlight. It is delivered in widescreen, and a highlight is a separate project.
Ghanaian teaser questions
Should a Ghanaian teaser start with the traditional marriage or the church day?
Whichever has the strongest opening image. Many couples choose the traditional marriage for the color of the kente; note in the preferences your choice in the moments question.
Can the teaser include drumming?
Yes, if the drumming is in your footage. The edit keeps the recorded sound and adds nothing.
Can I get a teaser and a highlight of the same wedding?
Yes, for a Ghanaian wedding that means two projects, each with its own purchase or plan credit.
Can I get it in vertical for social media?
No. The teaser is widescreen 1080p. Crop it yourself in your editor if you need a vertical version.
What if the teaser misses the bride's entrance?
Send a revision note by email from the link in the app naming the moment and roughly when it happened. Every full edit includes up to two revision rounds on the same teaser.
Who edits the teaser?
WeddingEditor's AI editing makes it, and it is delivered to your project.
Does WeddingEditor decide what is fine to show in a public teaser?
No. WeddingEditor works from the footage you upload and your notes. What the family is happy to share publicly, such as the libation or the stand-in brides, is their decision; write any limits in the avoid question.
