Terms & Conditions

1. At the time of booking a non-returnable booking fee of £100.00 is required to enable Viewpoint Video Productions, to complete all relevant booking details and more importantly, secure that specific date for you only. That date will no longer be available to anyone else. 
   
   NOTE:   Half of the outstanding balance of payment will be due the week before filming takes place with the final balance due when we start the edit process.  If payment is not made Viewpoint will not proceed from that point.
   
   
2. Please state any special requests for your wedding video at least 21 days prior to the wedding date, please do not make requests during the wedding, as there is no guarantee these requests will be met.
   
   
3. Please return any documents (i.e. Music Form, Wedding Details), to us at least 21 days prior to the wedding date.
   
   
4.  If no music form is returned, Viewpoint Video Productions will choose appropriate music for the wedding video.
   
   
5. The camera person/s will give advice to the clergy/hotel management of the best position to film, as not to cause obstruction to guests or uncomfortable viewing on the final edited film.  If, however, clergy/hotel management have any regulations of where the camera person/s should stand, during the wedding ceremony, the speeches and the evening reception, then the camera person/s will adhere to these regulations. Therefore Viewpoint Video Productions will not be held responsible if the camera person/s is/are placed in an awkward position causing obstruction to guests or uncomfortable viewing on the final edited film. 
   
   
6. Viewpoint Video Productions will edit the wedding video as they see appropriate.  Any re-edit will be charged at £45.00 per hour. If, however Viewpoint Video Productions have created the error (i.e. Spelling Error, Incorrect Music); there will be no charge for a Re-Edit. If the client has advised us of spellings or music and it is found to be incorrect, this will be deemed to be the fault of the client and therefore any work taken to rectify this would be charged at the Re-Edit rate of £45 per hour.
   
   
7.  If in the unlikely event that a digital cassette fails and some of the footage is lost Viewpoint Video Productions will not be held responsible. For compensation the wedding party will have to contact the manufacturer of the digital cassette.
