Diamond Films will be filming on the day of your wedding. We never outsource or delegate to others. You'll deal with Diamond Films the whole time and your films will all be done in-house by us.


Can Diamond Films work alongside our photographer?

Yes. In fact, many of the photographers in the industry are friends of our team. We can work alongside any photographer as we have done many times before. We have a background in photography so we know where the photographer needs to be and where we need to be throughout the day. We're also happy to discuss your wedding day with your photographer prior to the wedding.


What is a Same-Day-Edit?

Footage captured from the wedding gets edited together on during the day, made ready for you to play on-screen at your wedding reception, presented in a short clip highlighting the best moments of your wedding.


What happens if it rains?

We have been filming weddings for a long time now an as a result have also filmed on many rainy days. It’s a good idea to have a wet weather plan thought out in advance incase of this situation. We know of many great spots that can be used for the photo shoot which offer protection from the rain. Plan ahead and pack some matching umbrellas for the bridal party is also a good idea if the forecast doesn’t look good in the days leading up to the wedding. Most importantly don’t let the bad weather spoil your day! ‘When life gives you lemons make lemonade’. In our experience the rainy day weddings take on a charm of their own and your film will be unique with a romantic feel.


Can we choose our own music?

Odours you can. Or we can also choose the music we find emotive atmospheric music to enhance the mood if the film.
