Just curious what the going rates are these days for a delivered wedding/reception video. What are the expectations (drone footage, other)?

That's a good question. My only experience is from when I was looking for videographers for my own wedding and the quotes were in the $7,500 range for a delivered video.

I got my start and paid for film school in cash shooting weddings…I just finished my 7th feature film after building a career directing music videos and commercials. It’s truly a great training ground.

Amazing, Tim!

We started our career in 1982 shooting weddings and special events. Your premise is on target. But add the idea of "in-camera editing." Because online editing at that time was $250/hour. Thus, in-camera editing had to suffice. We are now San Diego's Longest-Serving Video Production Company (Crystal Pyramid Productions).

I love this, Patty! I never thought about the in-camera editing part, but that makes total sense.
