The Investment

A wedding is not a day. It is a season.

Most filmmakers sell a package that covers a few hours. Kavod is built the other way. The wedding day is the foundation — a base film, beginning at $3,500. From there, you choose which parts of the season we keep alongside it. Your film grows as you let us document more of what’s actually happening.

01

The Base

The wedding day,
kept whole.

Beginning at $3,500.

The foundation everything else is built on. A senior cinematographer with you from preparation through send-off, the day rendered as a documentary short and held in long form for the people who couldn’t be in the room.

Included in the base

  • i.A senior cinematographer on site from preparation through send-off
  • ii.8–10 minute hand-edited documentary film with a 5–7 minute ceremony cut woven in
  • iii.Up to 10 interviews woven into the final film
  • iv.Pristine audio: dual lavaliers, ambient room mic, redundant recorders
  • v.Color grade hand-tuned to the day’s natural light
  • vi.Licensed score · private gallery · downloadable master · vertical social cutdown
02

03

A Signature · Before the Day

A Kavod Signature

The Wedding Shopping Experiences.

Almost no wedding filmmaker captures the season before the day — the morning at the boutique, the cake tasting, the venue tour, the bachelor and bachelorette nights. We do. These are some of the most cinematic moments of the entire arc, and they earn their place in the final film.

Each available à la carte

Engagement Film · Dress Shopping · Cake Tasting · Tux Fittings · Bachelorette · Bachelor Party · Florist Shopping · Venue Shopping · Save-the-Date Film

Beginning at $150

each adds 1–3 min to final film

04

A Signature · After the Day

A Kavod Signature

Filmed Date Nights.

Five evenings, spread across the months after your wedding, when we sit with you and watch — the rough cuts, the outtakes, the moments that almost didn’t make the film. Wine, dinner, the day given back to you in pieces.

À la carte

$200 per evening

$900 for the bundle of five

adds 4–6 min to final film as woven reflections

05

The First Days

The film follows you
into marriage.

A signature add-on. We travel with you for the first days of married life and bring back a separate intimate documentary. We cover our own travel. A 10% credit flows back to you toward your honeymoon — a quiet thank-you for trusting us this far.

i.

Domestic

2–3 days

Beginning at $2,500

ii.

International

4–5 days

Beginning at $4,500

iii.

Extended

6–9 days

Beginning at $7,500

Capacity: two First Days bookings per year. Must be reserved 90+ days before the wedding.

06

Premium Production

Your film grows
as you do.

A base wedding earns the kind of 8–10 minute documentary that holds the day honestly. As you ask us to keep more of the season — the dress shopping, the rehearsal dinner, the date nights afterward — the film grows naturally to hold it all. The full arc lands at 45–60 minutes. With premium production and travel, a true feature documentary at 60–90.

We don’t pad. A 12-minute film that earned 12 minutes is better than a 30-minute film that earned 8.

07

A Note on the Larger Documentations

For documentations
beyond ten thousand
dollars.

Any film that crosses the $10,000 bracket includes the Third-Date Guarantee. After your third filmed experience, you choose: continue into the full arc, or invoke the guarantee and we return your full deposit plus a $250 honeymoon credit. The films we’ve already made together remain with Kavod — you walk away whole financially, but the documentation we started stays with the documentarian.

Beyond twenty thousand

No more than
six per year.

We accept no more than six bookings per year that span the $20,000 threshold. This is not marketing scarcity — it is the actual ceiling on what one filmmaker can give the level of attention a film of this scope deserves.

Bookings at this level include the guarantee plus three details that mark the difference: direct phone access to Alex through the planning months, a video film book that plays your wedding film when opened, and a handwritten letter included in the delivery box.
