I am interested in getting in the wedding video business; does anyone have a completed (full) in detail wedding video they
could send me on DVD or the MPEG for viewing so as I can see some of your work, more importantly what all you video/include and encompass in your completed video, e.g. the one you would actually give to your client?

This is a loaded question. If I would speak for myself, I wouldn't send my work to others - this creates negative perspective and wouldn't give most a warm feeling.

Your best bet would be to start off and create your own indivudual style. Speak to some past brides and ask them what they liked and didn't like abou their video and go from there.

Good luck!

Check out WEVA, the Wedding and Event Videographer's Association. You might find someone there willing to share their work or, more likely, a wedding videographer near you who might be willing to meet with you, show you some of his/her work and perhaps even allow you to come along as a backup videographer on a couple of wedding shoots.
