# An Igbo wedding teaser that opens on coral and palm wine

A Social Teaser is short, so an Igbo wedding teaser should start with something people recognize straight away: the bride's coral beads and george wrapper, the cup of palm wine in her hands, or the crowd parting as she searches for the groom. It should close on the couple together. You pick those beats in the preference questions and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the teaser from your footage. You receive a widescreen MP4 at 1080p, kept in your project until you choose to share it.

A teaser is its own project; a highlight of the same wedding needs another.

## How to brief an Igbo wedding teaser

1. **Set the project to Social Teaser** Create the project, pick Social Teaser, and upload the footage it should use. A teaser of the igba nkwu alone can come from that day's files only.
2. **Name the first and last moments** Write the opening, for example "the bride lifting the cup", and the ending, for example "the couple dancing as guests spray", in the moments question. Put anything to exclude in the avoid question.
3. **Watch, download and share when you choose** Once you start processing, expect it usually in 24 to 72 hours. It appears in your project to watch and download, and WeddingEditor never sends it to the couple.

## Opening and closing beats for an Igbo teaser

- **Open on coral**: A close look at the bride's coral beads or headpiece, then her full look as she steps out to greet her family under the canopy.
- **Open on the cup**: The bride receiving the cup of palm wine from her father.
- **The search**: A few seconds of the crowd and her friends as she looks for the groom.
- **The kneel**: The bride kneeling and the groom raising the cup.
- **Close on dancing**: The couple dancing, notes falling around them.
- **Hold back**: The kola nut prayers and long speeches belong in the highlight, not the teaser.

## What an Igbo teaser needs

- **Recognizable detail first**: Coral beads, george wrapper and the cup of palm wine are details Igbo viewers recognize instantly.
- **A small story**: The search and the kneel make a natural short story: a question, a pause and an answer.
- **Widescreen delivery**: Delivery is a widescreen 1080p MP4; any vertical crop for social platforms is yours to make after download.
- **Original sound**: The teaser uses only your footage's sound. One particular song is something you can lay in yourself after download.
- **Keep something back**: Leave room for the highlight: a teaser that shows the whole igba nkwu has nothing left to reveal.
- **The father's moment**: The bride's father handing over the cup is brief but full of meaning, and a few seconds of it can anchor a short teaser.

## Igbo teaser beats and how to brief them

| Beat | Purpose | How to brief it |
|---|---|---|
| Opening | Stop the scroll | "Start on the bride's coral beads." |
| The question | Create a little suspense | "A moment of her searching with the cup." |
| The answer | The emotional peak | "Keep her kneeling before the groom." |
| Ending | Leave them smiling | "End on the couple dancing." |

## What is an Igbo wedding Social Teaser?

A Social Teaser is a short edit chosen as a project's deliverable when you create it. For an Igbo wedding it usually leads with the bride's look and the cup of palm wine and ends with the couple.

Not the same as: It is not a vertical reel or a full highlight. The teaser is widescreen, and a highlight is a separate project.

## Igbo teaser questions

### Should the teaser come from the igba nkwu or the church day?

Many couples choose the igba nkwu for its color and its story, but the choice is yours. Note in the moments question.

### Can the teaser end on the spraying?

Yes, if it is in the footage. Name it as the closing beat.

### Can I get a vertical teaser?

No. It is delivered in widescreen 1080p. Make any vertical version yourself.

### Can I order a highlight later?

Yes. Create a second project with the footage and choose Highlight Reel; it uses a separate purchase or credit.

### What if the kneel is cut too short?

Ask for more of it in a revision note sent by email from the link in the app. Every full edit includes up to two rounds.

### Can the search with the cup be the whole teaser?

It can carry most of it. Many couples like a teaser that follows the bride from receiving the cup to kneeling before the groom, then ends on the dance. List those beats in order.

### Does WeddingEditor decide whether spraying shows up in an Igbo teaser?

No. Some families like the spraying in a shared teaser and some do not; that is their decision, not WeddingEditor's. Say which way they want it in the preferences.
