What Is a Wedding Highlight Film & Should We Get One?
When planning a wedding, most couples think of photos first—but what about a wedding highlight film?
It’s one of the most emotionally powerful ways to relive your day. A beautifully edited, story-led video that captures not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt.
At Smiling Tiger Studios, our highlight films are crafted with care, sensitivity, and our signature documentary style. Here’s what they are—and why so many couples say it’s the best decision they made.
What Is a Wedding Highlight Film?
A wedding highlight film is a short, cinematic video (usually 5–8 minutes) that brings together the most meaningful moments of your day—set to carefully chosen music and crafted to reflect the rhythm and emotion of your story.
You’ll see:
- Personal vows and speeches
- Natural moments with friends and family
- Reactions, laughter, movement, and music
- Beautiful, wide storytelling shots blended with quiet close-ups
It’s not just a recording. It’s a visual love letter.

“We Weren’t Sure About Video… Until We Saw Ours”
This is something we hear a lot. Many couples aren’t convinced they need video—until they see just how powerful it can be.
Photos freeze a moment. Films carry it. They let you:
- Hear your voices again
- See your nervous energy before the aisle
- Watch reactions you missed in real time
- Experience the full emotional atmosphere of the day
It becomes a treasured heirloom—something to share with loved ones now, and in years to come.
How It Works at Smiling Tiger Studios
We offer highlight films as part of our full wedding collections or as a tailored add-on.
Our filming style is quiet, compact, and unobtrusive—blending seamlessly with your photography. No big rigs. No shouting “action.” Just natural storytelling.
We edit everything in-house and deliver your highlight film digitally, ready to download, share, and save.
Is It Right for You?
If you:
- Love the idea of emotional storytelling
- Want to relive the atmosphere, not just see the visuals
- Prefer something beautifully curated over long-form documentary footage

We also offer longer edits and ceremony/speech films for couples who want more—just ask!
