# Wedding video editing by wedding type and venue

An elopement on a trail and a church wedding with three hundred guests produce very different footage, and the wedding decides the structure of the film. These guides cover the common wedding types and venues: what the light and sound are usually like, what to film, and what to write in the preference questions so the Highlight Reel or Social Teaser fits the day.

### Does the venue change what I upload?

You upload the same way for every wedding: the video and audio files from every camera. The venue changes what you write in the preference questions, such as which moments matter and what to leave out.

### Can a very short ceremony still make a Highlight Reel?

A Highlight Reel is built around about 5 minutes, so it needs enough footage across the day. For a short courthouse or elopement ceremony with little else filmed, a Social Teaser may fit better.

### Which edit should I choose for a small wedding?

Choose the Highlight Reel to tell the whole day, or the Social Teaser to make people feel it in a short, trailer-like edit. Each project produces one edit.
