Engagement Videos
Before the aisle. Before the big day. The story of how it all began.
At Silver Leaf Weddings, our wedding videographers craft engagement films that feel authentic, elegant, and timeless — designed with the same cinematic approach as our signature highlight films and full wedding films.
Whether you’re wandering through downtown Toronto at golden hour or revisiting the park where you first met, we create a pre-wedding film that captures your real connection.
What is an Engagement Film?
An Engagement Film is a short cinematic video (usually 2–3 minutes) that captures you as a couple before the wedding day — relaxed, yourselves, and fully present.
It pairs beautifully with our wedding videography packages and is perfect for:
Save-the-date announcements
Your wedding website
Reception playback
Sharing with family and friends
How We Film Your Engagement Session
During your engagement session, we focus on:
Authentic Connection — the natural interactions that show your real relationship
Meaningful Locations — parks, neighbourhoods, or Toronto landmarks
Natural Movement — simple prompts that keep you relaxed
Cinematic Atmosphere — the same signature look as all our wedding films

FAQs
-
Not at all. Our entire philosophy is built on capturing authentic moments as they happen. We don't direct scenes or ask you to "fake laugh." Aside from a short creative session (usually done alongside your photographer), we are 100% documentary. We want you to focus on your guests, not our cameras.
-
We believe music is the heartbeat of your film. We license high-quality music from professional libraries (like MusicBed or Artlist) that matches the emotion and pace of your wedding.
While we don't use mainstream Top 40 songs due to copyright laws, we select timeless tracks that ensure your video won't be blocked on social media. We are happy to discuss the "vibe" you love before we start editing!
-
Absolutely. Audio is what turns a music video into a story. We use high-end, discreet lavalier microphones to capture your vows and speeches with crystal-clear quality. We then weave these spoken words into your highlight film to drive the narrative.
-
We put a lot of care into the editing process. Typically, you will receive your final Highlight Film within 8 weeks of your wedding date. We focus on quality over speed to ensure every frame is perfect.
-
Yes, raw footage is available as an add-on to our packages. While your Highlight Film is a polished, cinematic edit, raw footage gives you every single file we shot that day, unedited and untouched. It is a great archival backup for the future.
-
We love to travel! While we are based in Toronto, we frequently film at venues across the GTA and beyond, including Muskoka and Niagara. If you are planning a destination wedding, please Contact Us for a custom travel quote.
-
To secure your date, we require a signed contract and a 50% retainer. Dates fill up quickly (especially for peak summer months), so we recommend reaching out as soon as you have your venue booked.
