I know this is wedding related but...

I HATE my wedding video!!! With all the technology nowadays, I have my wedding on a video tape.Chat Icon It's so grainy and horrible. It's been 4 years and I still can't watch the whole thing through. Plus the fact that my videographer stood in one spot the entire night shooting the dance floor.

Thank you vent over....

Re: I know this is wedding related but...

I know what you mean. DH and I were married 8.5 years ago...can you imagine the quality of that tape? But I think there are places that can covert VHS tapes to DVD's. I'd just be so nervous that they would inadvertantly erase the tape!!! But I'm just neurotic like that!

I think even if I transfer the tape to dvd, the quality will still be bad...Chat Icon

Re: I know this is wedding related but...

Maybe it can be restored when it is transferred. Ya know, like when they restore old photos? I dunno, give it a shot. See if there's a place that specializes in converting VHS to DVD and see what they can do. Ya never know in this era of technology! Chat Icon

There is also a place in Plainview that my ex-bf used to do video editing for www.AdwarVideo.com They do more than just transfer to DVD. Their prices are listed.

If you are just transferring to DVD, LL Camera (631-421-5535) 267 New York Avenue, Huntington, NY 11743 is less expensive. I used them to do my own wedding video from VHS to DVD.

The other option is to see if your videographer could make a dvd for you. I asked mine but he wanted $85 to do it.

There are companies that can restore your wedding tape, it might be fixable! If you try find a specialist, maybe www.supaphoto.com, they should be able to fix up your tape and transfer it to DVD or a video you can actually play and you might not hate it anymore ??

I'm assuming that after 15 years, she either got it done already, or she's not going to get it done... Chat Icon Chat Icon
