A Nigerian wedding teaser with the energy of the day up front
A Social Teaser is the first thing many guests see after a Nigerian wedding, so it should open with what makes the day unmistakable: the gele and aso ebi, the bride's entrance, a dance floor full of family. You choose the first and last beats in the preference questions, and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the teaser from your footage as a widescreen 1080p MP4 that you share when you choose.
A teaser and a highlight of the same wedding are two separate projects.

How to brief a Nigerian wedding teaser
- 1
Create a Social Teaser project
Choose Social Teaser when you create the project, then upload the footage it should draw from. A teaser of the reception alone can use only the reception files.
- 2
Pick the opening and the ending
In the moments question, write what comes first, such as the bride in her gele at the traditional, and what closes it, such as the couple dancing under falling notes. Use the avoid question for anything to keep out.

Download and share on your schedule
After processing, typically 24 to 72 hours, watch the teaser in the app and download it. WeddingEditor never sends it to the couple or posts it anywhere.
Opening and closing beats for a Nigerian teaser
Open on attire
A close look at the bride's gele or beads, then the full outfit as she turns.
Open on movement
The bridal party dancing into the reception hall, if the footage is strong.
One voice
A single line from the MC or a parent, short enough to stay energetic.
A burst of color
The families in their aso ebi colors together on the dance floor.
Close on the couple
The couple dancing while notes are sprayed, or laughing together at the high table.
Hold back
Vows, full speeches and the cake cutting can wait for the highlight you deliver later.
What a Nigerian teaser needs
A strong first image
Teasers are watched fast. Open with the most striking image, not the venue setup or arrivals.
Recognizable color
Gele, aso ebi and traditional attire tell viewers instantly whose wedding this is.
Widescreen delivery
The teaser is a widescreen 1080p MP4. Make any vertical version for social media yourself after download.
Real audio with music
WeddingEditor keeps the sound from your footage. One particular song is something you can lay in yourself after download.
Short means selective
Pick a few moments and let them breathe; a teaser that tries to show every day feels rushed.
Choose which day it comes from
If the teaser project holds both the traditional day and the reception, say whether to draw on one or both. A teaser built from one day often feels more focused than one that jumps between three.
Nigerian teaser beats and how to brief them
| Beat | Purpose | How to brief it |
|---|---|---|
| Opening | Stop the scroll | "Start on the bride's gele close up." |
| Color | Show the families | "A moment of the emerald and coral groups dancing." |
| Voice | Make it personal | "One line from the MC announcing the couple." |
| Ending | Leave them smiling | "End on the spraying at the first dance." |
What is a Nigerian wedding Social Teaser?
A Social Teaser is a short edit chosen as a project's deliverable when you create it. For a Nigerian wedding it usually leads with attire and dancing and saves the ceremonies for a longer film.
It is not a vertical reel and not a highlight. Delivery is widescreen, and a highlight of the same wedding is a separate project.
Nigerian teaser questions
Should the teaser come from the traditional day or the reception?
Either, or both if both are in the project. Many couples choose the traditional day for attire and the reception for energy; note in the preferences your choice.
Can I include the money spraying?
Yes, if you filmed it. List it as the closing beat or as a moment in the middle.
Can the teaser be in vertical format?
No, it is delivered in widescreen 1080p. Crop it yourself for vertical platforms.
Can I get a teaser and a highlight?
Yes, for a Nigerian wedding that means two projects, each with its own purchase or plan credit.
What if I do not like the opening shot?
Email a revision note from the link in the app saying which moment should open instead. Up to two revision rounds are included with every full edit.
Can the MC's announcement open the teaser?
Yes, if the recording is clear. Name the line and roughly when it happened, such as the MC announcing the couple before their grand entrance, so the AI editing can find it.
Does WeddingEditor decide whether money spraying is fine for a public teaser?
No. Some families are glad to share the spraying and some prefer not to; that is their decision, not WeddingEditor's. Say in the preferences whether to include it and whether to avoid close-ups of cash.
