How to give your wedding videos a bollywood twist?

               Bollywood Twist in Wedding Videos


John Lennon could not be more accurate when he said "All you need is love". Love is the emotion that binds us all together. What can better evoke love than a romantic Bollywood song? Romance is the spirit of Bollywood. Let’s face it! Bollywood evokes some strong emotions with it's obsession with romance.

There's no Bollywood movie of an isolated genre and there's involvement of romance in everything. Every couple wants to revisit memories of their wedding including the pre and post events. The engagement, the invitations, the reception, and the vows themselves—to preserve those memories as they happened or share them with others, a video is a must.



A wedding video can be a part of your entire wedding process, letting you create a beautiful way to document your journey towards marriage. But, a video without a story and music, looks empty and has no meaning to convey. What would be more fascinating, than sliding a bit of Bollywood in your wedding videos? It would bring out a perfect blend of romance and reality in the videos. Bollywood is the vanilla Hollywood and reflects important messages of love and life. 

Bollywood just not brings songs with it, but, also a plot story and twists which drags out the video from the void. When we say Bollywood, it is indeed meant that your entire family can participate in the wedding video, where they can create something glorious with their starry presence. The job of adding a flavour of Bollywood includes some pretty good thinking and time. It can start with choosing the right Bollywood theme. Want to feel like a queen with a royal aura all around you? Or do you feel like getting hitched amidst chirping birds and streaming creeks? Your wedding is the most important day of your life and you want to do it in style!



There is a vast number of themes to choose for your special day out of an epic line of movies and movie scenes. The scene has to be scripted and plotted as in a movie, bringing out an essence of chemistry between the two. It can start with the entrance of the groom, with the song 'Azeem-O-Shaan Shehanshah' playing in the background. He approaches towards the bride in a royal ensemble and hands over a rose to her with the song 'Jashn-E-Bahaara' in the background. A lot of different scenes from different movies can fit in the script, bringing out a completely beautiful and different wedding video. Or it can be kept simple but exciting, with the bride coming on a bike in her wedding sartorial. 

It is the song that accentuates the moment. Songs are undeniably an imperative part of Indian weddings. Whether it is selecting that perfect song for your bridal entry or a WOW solo performance or choosing the right tracks for your parents' performance, there are quite so many songs you need to select for your wedding shenanigans. Choosing the right Bollywood song for your wedding video and trailer is as important as investing in a skilled videographer.  It is the song that plays in the background that captures the mood and uplifts the entire vibe of your love-filled wedding videos. As a couple, you must spare out some time amidst wedding preparation to chalk out some special songs that hold some significant relevance to your relationship. Whether it is a song that he often sings for you or a song that perfectly describes your emotions towards each other - the song must matter to you as a couple.

A pre-wedding video has been one of the most trending rituals followed by young couples these days. Pre-wedding videos act as a Bollywood music video, where our gorgeous couple spend quality time together, mostly in outdoor locations. It is a very simple and beautiful way of expressing the mutual understanding and compassion between a pair. These videos will surely make you go “Aww” and all giddy inside. These videos scream Bollywood with every second. 

A wedding is a sweeping phenomenon all over India. Even middle-class weddings are being celebrated in full Bollywood style, with the enthusiastic brides and their anxious grooms getting jittery over how to dress for each event and ritual. The Bollywood glamour can be brought about at a wedding by a royal Bollywood wedding conductance.


Ensemble:

The bride can certainly look like replicas of Preity Zinta, Rani Mukherjee or Kareena Kapoor with their coy looks and downcast, shy eyes. And the bridegrooms can look closest to Shah Rukh Khan or Saif Ali Khan in their clothes, headgear and most importantly riding the mare.




Mehndi:

The demand for unusual mehndi feasts has brought into limelight bhelpuriwalas,
panipuri sellers, and idli-dosa makers who are normally considered ‘common street
food hawkers’. For wedding functions, they can dress up their stalls and create a sort of mela
where the spirit is to just enjoy. This ritual is copied exactly from a Bollywood film
and that just influences the best parts of the wedding video making it look royal, desirable
and fun filled.




Cocktail party:
A high-end cocktail party with shimmering dresses and club lights can be included in the video
just like Bollywood weddings.

Wedding games:
The ice-breaking and bond forming rituals for the couple, commonly in arranged marriages,
in Bollywood movies, can be given a place in the videos, to imbibe that Bollywood spark. Example,
'Jutti-Chhupai' or the ring finding game.

The feast after a wedding also hosts an interesting game. The bridegroom bites off a piece of a
sweet — such as a gulab jamun — and offers the other half to his bride in the midst of revelry.
This is the first time they share food in this intimate manner.
These games not only give a Bollywood touch, but also looks cute in the video.
Devote a considerate amount of time in looking out for your perfect Bollywood wedding video.
