Average Wedding Videographer Cost in Toronto

In Toronto and the GTA, professional wedding videography typically ranges from $2,500 – $8,000+ for full-day coverage.

Here’s how the industry breaks down:

• Beginner / Solo Shooter

  $2,000 – $4,000

  Small weddings, low budgets

• Experienced Boutique Studio

Why Toronto Wedding Videographers Cost More

Toronto is a major production city — home to commercial film crews, media agencies, and luxury venues. With higher cost of living and operational expenses, videography pricing here reflects:

• Demand for cinematic quality

• Industry-standard gear and workflows

• Experienced creative professionals

The trade-off?

You get world-class filmmaking — local to your wedding day.

How to Choose the Right Wedding Videographer

Here’s what really matters when comparing options:

✔ Do their films make you feel something?

✔ Do they capture voices and emotion — not just visuals?

✔ Do they deliver full edits like ceremony & speeches?

✔ Do they use cinema cameras, lighting & backup audio?

✔ Do they have backup cards & drives?

✔ Do their reviews mention professionalism & communication?

And most importantly:

Do you connect with the way they tell love stories?

Because your story is one of a kind.

  Wedding films require multiple cameras, professional audio, drones, lighting, and 40–100+ hours of professional editing, colour grading, and sound design — not just filming the one day.

• Is wedding videography worth the cost?

  Yes — video captures moments photography can’t: voices, reactions, movement, and speeches. A film lets you relive memories and share them with future generations.

• What’s included in a videography package?

  Most packages include full-day coverage, multiple cameras, audio capture, and at least one cinematic film (such as a Highlight Film). Higher-end packages may also include Same-Day Edits, Feature Films, and full Ceremony & Speeches edits.

  Toronto videographers often book 9–18 months in advance, especially Saturdays from May–October. The sooner you secure your date, the better.

• How much does a 1-minute wedding video cost?

  Short cinematic edits can range $600 – $2,000 depending on the complexity and storytelling. At Silver Leaf, shorter films are often included as part of a package for better value.

• Do you need both a photographer and videographer?

  Yes — photography captures still moments while videography captures the emotion and energy of the day through movement, vows, music, and speeches. The two complement each other.
