Relive the Magic
Laureland Films celebrate your uniqueness. We know your love story is one-of-a-kind and we will craft a tailor-made experience for your wedding day. We pay close attention to the music you choose, the sounds of laughter and joy around us, and the vibe in the room. Those little details are where the magic lies, making your film truly personal and unforgettable.
Meticulously Detailed
We make every moment count. Together, we’ll create a personalized shot list before the big day, so we can intentionally capture those special moments featuring just the two of you. We give your bridal party vintage camcorders so they can capture precious moments through their lens. Then, we bring all these strands of detail into one elegant, cinematic masterpiece.
We give you all your raw footage in one watchable edit so you can experience every precious moment of your wedding day. It’s like a cozy home movie where you get to see and hear everything just as it happened. Relive every laugh, tear, and heartfelt exchange whenever you want. It's your own personal window into the memories that will last a lifetime.
We’re Lauren & Travis
- the husband and wife duo behind Laureland Films
We believe wholeheartedly that your love story is worthy of celebration - on your wedding day and beyond. We bring together different strands and elements of your story to create a timeless, heirloom film that you’ll love as much in 40 years time as you will on delivery day.
A bespoke, curated experience
You’ve put your heart and soul into planning your wedding party. Now, it’s down to us to create a beautiful film that celebrates it. We capture all the precious details—so you can relive your wedding. And on the day itself, you can fully immerse yourself in your day and spend time with the people who mean the most, knowing that we’re capturing every moment.
Story-driven narrative
No two love stories are the same. So, all of our films are different. We don’t believe in cut-and-paste templates or cookie-cutter editing. Instead, you’ll get a bespoke film that celebrates your unique love story. We tailor our camera techniques, music selection, and color of your film to suit your vibe. And we spend time getting to know you before the wedding day so we create a film that feels like home.
Authentically captured, honestly told
We believe in raw, unscripted love stories. We believe in capturing honest moments and celebrating human-to-human connection. We want you to be authentically you on your wedding day. Because there’s nothing worse than looking back on your wedding video and not recognizing yourself. We aim to make you feel as comfortable as possible so you can show up honestly and wholeheartedly.

The simple wedding film
Laureland Films creates luxurious, adventurous love story films
for wild-hearted couples.
Your wedding day only scratches the surface of the incredible journey you've made together. There are so many elements and narratives to the story that need to be told. Your story session is a chance for us to connect and collaborate before the big day. We’ll plan a fun activity in your chosen location (such as your fave taco spot or hiking trail) to capture some unique footage of you two.
Afterward, we’ll all sit down together, and with the cameras rolling, you can share your love story with us - the highs, the lows, the experiences you’ll never forget, and the beautiful moments you’ve shared side-by-side. We'll offer you question prompts that gently allow you to share your story in your own words.
Story sessions are an extra-special way to create something meaningful and monumental together. It adds another layer to your wedding film.

Do you travel everywhere?
Yep, we go everywhere and anywhere in the name of love. As keen travelers, we love capturing weddings all across the world. If you’re planning an adventurous destination wedding, then we’re definitely the duo for you!
When will we get our film?
We aim to deliver your film within 3-4 months. We handcraft all our films and do our post-production in-house, so delivery dates may be a little longer, depending on where we’re at in the season. If your wedding film collection includes a social media teaser film, you’ll receive that within 72 hours of your wedding day. We’ll also send you a link to a page where you can track your film’s progress in real-time and see where you are in the queue.
How will we receive our film?
Your wedding will be hosted on its own bespoke Vidflow website. We customize each gallery with a unique URL, photos, and videos, so it truly feels like yours. (Here’s one we made earlier.) Vidflow makes watching, downloading, and sharing your wedding film easy. If you want a physical memento of your day, you can add a video playbook or flash drive anytime.
Do you always shoot with a drone?
We love getting the drone out! All of our film collections include aerial coverage unless of course it’s bad weather or there are location restrictions in place. Travis is a certified drone pilot in the US/UK, so we’re all fully covered and insured.
How long will you store our footage for?
THE VERY FIRST THING we do when we get home from your wedding is back up your footage onto multiple drives. From the day we finish filming until 1 year from delivery, we keep all your footage secure in multiple locations.
How do you work with photographers?
We believe that one of the best ways we can serve you on your wedding day is by working well and collaborating with your vendors. We treat your photographer as an equally important partner on your creative team and we do everything we can to honor their vision as we work alongside each other. We’ve had so many positive experiences working with photographers, some of which have led to beautiful friendships. We can recommend lots of amazing photographers we love working with.
What are payment terms?
25% is due upfront to secure your wedding date in our diaries. The remaining amount will be set up in a payment plan with the final payment due 30 days before your wedding date.

love note:
“Have no doubts about booking with Lauren and Travis to capture any of your special moments. We hired these amazing professionals for our wedding and could not be more amazed at the quality, editing, and beautiful way they captured such a meaningful moment in our lives. They offer so many resources and recommendations to help with anything you may need. Honestly, Lauren could have doubled as a planner with everything they can do! All of our family and friends have told us 100 times over how much they love our wedding highlight film. The way Lauren and Travis were able to put it together while making it so reflective of who we are as people was surreal. They are so easy to work with and have gifted us something we are going to be able to watch time and time again for the rest of our lives, which is really what it's all about. Invest in them today. You won't regret it.”

"They did such a great job capturing the moments of the day that a photographer wouldn’t be able to."
“Lauren and Travis made sure to connect with us before the wedding so they could understand what special moments we wanted captured and what type of vibe we were going for. Let me tell ya... THEY KILLED IT! They did such a great job capturing the moments of the day that a photographer wouldn’t be able to. Many videographers’ videos look the same, but Lauren and Travis do a great job of tailoring each video to their couple's vibe and make sure it accurately reflects the atmosphere and energy at the wedding. The wedding day flew by and I’m so glad I have our film to look back on and remember all of the little and big moments that made our wedding day so special. It’s something I’ll cherish my entire life.”
