How do you capture clear audio for the ceremony and reception speeches?

West Vision Films uses 3 external lavalier microphones during each wedding ceremony. The Groom and Officiant will each have small lavalier microphones discreetly clipped on their jacket or collar. The third microphone will be hooked into the wedding venues audio board. Three different audio sources ensures that every moment is captured and backed up on different devices. For Reception Speeches, an audio device will be plugged into the wedding venues audio board, along with a backup audio device on the podium. Your wedding day is very special so we take all necessary precautions to ensure all audio is very clear and back ups are put in place.
