How to Make Your Own Wedding Video Invitations

Is it your dream to make your wedding more memorable for yourself and your guests? It starts with the invitation. Traditionally, you will send out paper invitations to guests who you want to attend your wedding. The information in the invitation includes details on where the wedding will be held. There will also be a list of the entourage members.

Now that we are in the age of high technology, wedding invitations have also become more high tech. With video invitations, you can do away with printing press companies and expensive stationery.

What exactly are wedding invitations by video? With a video editor on hand you can create these invitations yourself. Many computer programs are available to help you come up with something like a wedding video invitation. If you have a computer, as well as a cam corder, you can do this on your own. You won't need a printer if you can write out the names on the cover yourself. Sending is also effortless because you can send by email.

Here are some of the things you will be needing:

- a video camera
- a short rehearsed speech
- Several photos to include as a slide show
- music to play in video as background sound

If sending by email is not your cup of tea, you can send the video through mail like you would a paper invitation. Many guests may not even have their own email addresses. To do this, you should have a way to convert the video into DVD. You can get the video burned on CD and send them in DVD format.

Here are the qualities that should be present in your video

- it should be like a movie's trailer
- touching
- magnificent
- should contain clear and beautiful pictures

The music you play should be relevant to your wedding or your relationship. The photos should represent your love for one another. A short speech should be added towards the end of the video so that the bride and groom can directly ask the viewer to attend.

If most of the people you want to invite are on Facebook, you can simply invite them using your video. Inviting your guests through your social network page using your video invitation can be done in two steps. You can set up a private youtube account and send the link to the video through your social pages. Make sure you edit your Facebook or Twitter settings so that only those invited can actually see the video.
