If your mood board is half concrete poetry and half warm hugs we are already on the same wavelength. Our team crafts cinematic wedding films across Berlin in an editorial candid rhythm, a little calm direction when it flatters, quiet documentary instincts when the moment sings on its own. Real voices, natural light, beautiful pacing, no cheese
Why Berlin on film feels so honest
Berlin is a city of strong lines and soft hearts. You can exchange vows under a glass roof and wander into a leafy courtyard fifteen minutes later. The soundtrack shifts from S Bahn hum to clinking glasses and your film breathes with it. Stone reflects evening gold onto skin. Murals and metal give contrast that makes silk and tux lapels pop. And when a rooftop breeze rolls in your veil gets a cameo the city will be proud of
A tiny story from last season. On a terrace above the historic center the veil tried to become a kite right as the guitarist reached the chorus. One invisible hairpin, three steps into shelter, and the skyline turned into a title card. Helpful when needed, invisible when not, that is our whole philosophy
Locations couples love, without turning your day into a location scout
Berlin is generous with textures, rooftops with long horizons, courtyards with ivy and string lights, streets with cobbles and murals. You do not need ten addresses to make a film feel cinematic. You need two or three moods that flow
-
Rooftops and terraces
Wide frames, skyline silhouettes, late light that kisses stone. We choose one vantage point so you are back with guests before anyone can miss you
-
Courtyards and arcades
Calm geometry, kind sound, shade that keeps eyes relaxed. Ideal for letters, first looks and micro portrait windows
-
Street loops
A short walk right outside your venue, a mural or facade, a little walk and talk, a laugh you will replay in ten years. Zero stress, maximum city
Tip for timing, if the weather leans feisty we keep a covered option in pocket so the plan reads elegant rather than improvised
Light, sound, movement, the three pillars of a great wedding film
-
Light
May and June, then September and October, deliver soft air and long evenings. Two short portrait windows beat one marathon every single time, a shaded micro session before vows, a ten minute golden hour walk later. Your film feels like a day, not a photoshoot
-
Sound
Vows and toasts are the spine of a good wedding film. We run dual lavs for ceremonies, a safety feed at the mixer, and a pocket recorder with musicians. Under glass we do a quick echo clap and nudge mic placement so reverb turns into glow rather than mush
-
Movement
Gimbal for entrances and terrace reveals, handheld for hugs and alleyway laughs, locked off for vows and first dance. Drones depend on venue and airspace. If they are not permitted we trade for elegant rooftop or stair landing reveals with the same emotional payoff
A gentle micro timeline that loves Berlin
We design transitions so you never feel rushed and your guests never feel abandoned
-
Window light prep with one calm surface for details and everything else happily imperfect
-
First look in shade or under an arcade so faces relax and shoulders drop
-
Ceremony with sun behind you or in full shade, easy eyes, even skin
-
Terrace cocktails while we collect in between magic at the edges
-
Two ten minute portrait windows that feel like a walk, not a production
-
Thirty minutes of no camera dinner time so you can actually taste the menu
-
Dance floor with space to move and a clean background so joy films like joy
Pull quote for the inner planner, two ten minute windows beat one marathon every single time
Streets and courtyards that play nicely with timelines
Here is a simple loop many couples adopt and love
-
Five to eight minutes under a colonnade or in a courtyard for soft light
-
A short facade or mural pass, a walk and talk that lets audio breathe
-
Silhouettes on a balcony or rooftop if available
-
Three night frames near the venue entrance while the dance floor resets
It reads like a date rather than a shoot and the edit thanks you later
Booking and availability without the guesswork
We are booking 2025–2026 across Berlin and Brandenburg. Prime weekends in late May, June and late September tend to go first. Fridays, Sundays and mid week dates open more doors with venues and vendors. Fastest path, send your date, venue or shortlist, rough hours, and whether you want welcome drinks coverage or a day after city stroll. We reply with availability, a clear approach, and a tailored proposal
What moves the quote, coverage design for one day or a full weekend story, logistics and late finishes, team size for multicam coverage, deliverables and turnaround preferences, and whether you want photo plus film in one coordinated crew. Share your plan and we will send pricing guidance, a sample timeline and example deliverables that match your vibe
Two real scenarios couples often compare
City classic with rooftop golden hour
Civil vows midday or early afternoon, a quiet courtyard for a first look, portraits nearby, cocktails on a terrace above the skyline, dinner and toasts under a high ceiling. We lean into architectural reveals, a warm polished grade, and a soundtrack that lets the room breathe. Guests feel spoiled and you never sprint
Courtyard vows with warehouse party
First look under plane trees, ceremony in a private courtyard, then an industrial evening inside a converted hall with clean sound and moody light. A ten minute night stroll outside gives you cinematic city frames without leaving the reception for long. The film reads like Berlin, present tense
Both paths are beautiful. The choice is pace and how much open sky you want in the second half of the day
Quick questions answered
Do we need permits for parks rooftops or drones
Sometimes yes. Public green spaces and certain rooftops require permission. If a location is not available we line up a visually equal alternative so your schedule never wobbles
Can you work alongside our photographer
Happily. We sync timelines, share light notes and keep the footprint small so you enjoy the party
How do you handle backup
Dual slot cameras, mirrored recorders and redundant storage from capture to delivery. Your audio and video are treated like heirlooms
Do you offer photography too
Yes. If you want photo plus film in one voice the photographer and our team coordinate color, timelines and coverage so everything feels seamless
How early should we book for 2025–2026
If you are aiming for late May, June or late September, inquire early. Mid week dates are friendlier. Send your date and we will confirm right away
