A Turkish wedding teaser that opens on the drums at her door
A Turkish wedding has instantly recognizable sounds and images for a teaser: the davul and zurna outside the bride's home, the red sash at her waist, gold glinting on the ribbons during the takı, a halay line stretching across the hall. A good Social Teaser usually opens on one of those, shows the couple, gives a burst of the halay and stops while the music is still high. Upload the footage, write the opening and closing beats, and WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the teaser.
The teaser arrives widescreen at 1080p. There is no vertical version.

How to brief a Turkish wedding teaser
- 1
Create a Social Teaser project
Choose Social Teaser when you create the project and upload the day's footage. A Highlight Reel of the same wedding would be its own project and purchase or credit.
- 2
Write the first and last beats
In the moments question, say what opens the teaser and what closes it, and name the faces that must appear. Use the avoid question for anything not to be shared.
- 3
Watch it before you share it
When processing finishes, which typically takes 24 to 72 hours after you start it, watch the result in your project, download the MP4 and send notes by email if the opening or ending needs to change.

What a Turkish teaser needs
A sound people know
The davul and zurna are a strong opening; they announce a Turkish wedding before any image does.
A color that tells the story
The red of the sash, the veil and the ribbons runs through the day and gives a teaser visual unity.
Save the ceremony for the film
The ceremony and the speeches are better kept for the main film; the teaser can hint at them.
A Social Teaser project
The deliverable is chosen when you create the project, and the teaser is a widescreen 1080p MP4 with no vertical version.
Original sound
The drums and cheering are from your recordings; the audio preference sets the balance of real sound and music.
Ask before sharing gold
Some families prefer the takı not to be shown publicly. Check before you list it as a teaser moment.
Teaser beats and how to brief them

| Red sash | A color and a custom | "The sash knotted, close." |
| Couple | Who the wedding belongs to | "Both faces as they leave." |
| Halay | Energy | "A burst of the longest line." |
| Close | Leaves them wanting more | "End on the halay passing the camera." |
What is a Turkish wedding Social Teaser?
A Social Teaser is a short edit of the wedding made from the footage in a WeddingEditor project, meant to be shared. For a Turkish wedding it often rides on the davul, the red of the sash and ribbons, and the halay.
It is not a vertical reel and not the full film. Phone formats and a longer cut are yours to make after download.
Turkish teaser questions
Should the teaser start at the bride's home or the hall?
The bride's home gives a stronger, more personal opening for many families, especially with the davul and zurna at the door. Either works; write it in the moments question.
Can the teaser include the takı?
If the family is happy for it to be shared, a brief glimpse works well. Say so, or avoid it, in the preferences.
Is there a vertical version for social media?
No. The teaser is widescreen; crop it yourself if you need a phone format.
Will the zurna be audible?
Yes, if your cameras caught it. WeddingEditor keeps your sound and uses music alongside it, balanced by your audio preference.
Does WeddingEditor decide whether the takı ceremony suits a public teaser?
No. Some families prefer the gold and money gifts kept out of anything shared; that is their decision, not WeddingEditor's. Say in the preferences whether to include the takı.
Can I get both a teaser and a highlight?
Yes, as two projects. Each project makes one edit and uses one purchase or plan credit, so order them separately.
My second shooter covered the groom's convoy. Can that footage go in?
Yes. If they are signed in to your WeddingEditor team, they can add their files through the team upload link WeddingEditor sets up, and you can name the convoy as an opening beat.
