Straight answers
Wedding pricing FAQ
Open only the questions you need. If your day is unusual, ask us and we'll price the actual plan.
Ask a Pricing QuestionHow is travel handled for Hawaii weddings?
These collections are starting points for weddings across Hawaiʻi, including Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi and Hawaiʻi Island. Travel depends on your island, venues and itinerary, including any additional event days or inter-island plans. Share those details with us so we can confirm artist availability, coverage and any travel in your proposal before you book.
Will tax, processing fees or surprise travel charges be added?
We do not add sales tax or a card-processing fee to the collection amount shown. Your total reflects the coverage, artists and optional experiences you select, plus any island travel or logistical needs confirmed in your proposal before you sign.
How many hours of wedding coverage do we need?
Six hours can cover the ceremony, portraits and core reception moments when locations and timing are compact. Add time when you want getting ready, a first look, multiple locations or later reception events. Travel between properties uses coverage time, so send us a rough timeline and we'll protect the irreplaceable moments first.
What is the difference between Essential and Premium?
Essential protects the main story with a leaner team. Premium adds simultaneous coverage, engagement experiences, more finished pieces and keepsakes. When couples already want those additions, Premium can cost less than adding them one at a time. See the side-by-side value calculations.
What is a Wedding Experience Director?
Your WED is a dedicated BlackTie support person who helps both partners--especially the bride--with the dress, veil, bouquet, posing, people-gathering, timeline and small emergencies. The role supports the photo and film experience.
Does the Wedding Experience Director replace a planner or coordinator?
No. Your WED complements a professional wedding planner and venue coordinator. The WED focuses on personal support for the couple and a smooth media experience, not full event planning, vendor management or venue operations.
Which collections include the full ceremony, speeches and first dances?
Premium Wedding Film and Premium Photo + Film include complete coverage of the ceremony, reception entrances, speeches and first dances, in addition to a shorter 5-10 minute story-driven highlight. Essential film collections can add the complete key-moment film for $595.
When will our photographs and wedding films be ready?
Essential photo collections receive five edited previews within one week. Premium photo collections receive 30 previews in about 2-4 weeks. Film collections receive a 30-90 second teaser in about 2-4 weeks. Full galleries are typically ready around four months and final wedding films around six months. Peak-season volume can affect timing; your agreement confirms the schedule.
Can we customize a collection or add something later?
Yes. Extra hours, artists, complete key-moment films, longer edits, raw footage, drone, albums, booths and content creation can be considered. Some additions depend on staffing, production timing or venue rules, so ask before assuming an item will remain available.
How do payments work, and how do we reserve our date?
After availability is confirmed, we prepare your proposal. Signing the agreement and paying the reservation amount secures the date. Standard payment is 50% to reserve and the balance by the wedding day. Flex Pay can begin with 30% and spread the remainder over a no-interest plan of up to six months. Paying in full by check earns a 1.5% discount.
Do we need a finished timeline before contacting you?
No. Your venue or city, ceremony time, likely locations and the moments you care about most are enough to begin. We can help you choose a sensible starting point before the timeline is final. Tell us what you know so far.
What happens with weather, drones, venue rules or airspace limitations?
Drone coverage is subject to law, safety, weather, airspace, location access and venue approval. A flight cannot be guaranteed before conditions are known. If a drone cannot be used, the team prioritizes the strongest safe and permitted coverage available under the signed agreement.
