Idea of Placing a GoPro on the Main Table ♡
A small action camera, the GoPro, is capable of recording long videos.
Some newlyweds use it by placing it in the welcome space so that guests can freely leave messages for them.
This time, I would like to introduce the idea of placing a GoPro on the "main table" instead of the welcome space.
What are the benefits of placing it on the main table...?
Conversations with Guests are Preserved ♡
By placing the GoPro facing the newlyweds at the high table, it will record conversations with guests who come to the main table.
Even if you hire a videographer for the wedding, they won't be able to capture every conversation. Therefore, having a GoPro allows you to preserve guests' comments like "Congratulations~♡" and "So cute!" as well as their expressions while enjoying the reception.
Editing it in a time-lapse style like this would also be interesting!
It's Also Nice to Face the Venue!
Placing the GoPro facing the guests from the main table gives a wonderful view of the newlyweds' perspective as they look at the audience.
You can capture the atmosphere from the high table, along with expressions and gestures of guests that you might not notice during the reception.
GoPro Can Be Rented ♡
A GoPro costs around 50,000 yen to purchase, but it can also be rented. Renting it for a week is about 5,000 yen, which is quite reasonable!
Since ordering recorded wedding footage can cost hundreds of thousands of yen, you might not do it often, and some brides have rented a GoPro instead to save costs.
While it's a fixed camera, it may not have the same sense of presence as a videographer, but it can effectively capture the atmosphere of the reception and the content of speeches.
I introduced the idea of placing a GoPro on the high table.
Some brides have said, "I placed it, but it wasn't necessary," but since it's small, it doesn't get in the way, and if you rent it for 5,000 yen, it's not a price to regret spending even if you never rewatch it!
There were also voices from brides who were glad to have captured surprise moments that the videographer couldn't, such as a friend bringing a surprise message during conversations or a grandmother getting emotional and crying. So definitely give it a try!
Some brides mentioned being shocked that the GoPro's battery died midway, so it's a good idea to prepare a mobile battery and spare batteries and ask staff members or siblings to check if it's recording.
