Wedding Videography Proposal Template

In SendScope under Video & Audio, as Wedding Videography

Couples book a photographer first and a videographer second, often months later and usually after somebody told them they would regret not having one. That timing is the commercial fact this template is built around.

Both packages lead with the highlight film, because that is the thing a couple will actually watch and share. The full ceremony edit in the larger package is the thing they watch once and their parents watch many times, which is a different and entirely real reason to buy it.

Music licensing deserves its own line. A film scored with a track nobody licensed cannot be posted anywhere, and a couple who sends you a song they love is asking for something you may not be able to deliver. Settle it before the day rather than in the edit.

How it gets paid

Deposit, then balance

40% is due when the client approves, and the balance when you mark the work delivered. Both payments happen on the same link the proposal is on.

Card or bank transfer, and you choose which per deal. If you want a package to bill every month instead of once, you set that on the package itself when you build the deal, and the client can cancel it from their own link.

Prices are a starting point in Australian dollars. Change the figures, the inclusions and the number of packages to suit what you sell.

The starting terms

What approving the page records

These sit above the approve button. The client reads them, and approving records that they accepted them.

These terms cover the production you approve on this page.

  • The booking. The deposit shown on this page holds the shoot date and is not refunded if you cancel, because the date is then reserved for you.
  • Payment. The balance is paid before the final files are delivered.
  • What you receive. The deliverables, their length, the formats and the number of cuts are those described above. Raw footage and project files are not included and can be quoted separately.
  • Revisions. The rounds of revision included are listed above. A round is one consolidated set of notes. Further rounds, or changes after the final cut is approved, are quoted before they are done.
  • Music and stock. Licensed music, stock footage and voice talent are charged as quoted and licensed for the use described above.
  • Use of the work. You may use the delivered work for the platforms, territory and period described above. Wider use is quoted separately. I keep the right to show the work in my portfolio unless you ask me in writing not to.
  • On the day. Location access, permissions and the people appearing on camera are arranged by you unless stated above.
  • Cancellation. If you cancel, you are charged for work already done and costs already committed.

Approving this page records that you accepted this scope, this price and these terms.

Starting terms, not legal advice. Read them, change what does not match how you work, and have a lawyer look at them if the work is large enough to warrant it. Your own default terms in Settings replace these automatically.

Before you send it

What to change first

The parts of this template most likely to be wrong for you.

  • Your turnaround, which runs longer than photography and surprises couples
  • Music licensing, and what a couple is allowed to choose from
  • Whether raw footage is available at all, and at what price
  • Coordination with the photographer, which nobody books and everybody expects
