We made a music video to send out as a wedding invite - feedback appreciated!

Hi

Instead of ordering paper invites, my fiance and I thought we would be different and we've made a music video to send out to friends and family as a DVD inviting them to our wedding. It's all deliberately cheesy but I'd still like your feedback before I send it out!

The beginning is a bit silly with a time-lapse of our cat so skip to 3:30

Thanks! :p Hope it's not too boring

    Nope, I heard that as well.

    p.s. congratulations :)
  • Very funny; go for it, it works and clearly expresses your personalities. I love the cat bit too at the beginning. One thing - is it suppose to convey the location and time info becasue I haven't got a clue of either, lol. (yeah, I know I'm not one of the 199 :D)
    I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once

    Haven't be able to look at the vid, but just to say it's a brilliant idea provided the main details of the wedding are included on the DVD insert i.e. date, time, location etc.

    Absolutely brilliant! I want to go to your wedding too now! lol I especially loved the dancing, with you grabbing your foot from behind type thing, I nearly spat my drink! :D

    The only little things I would maybe do, is make the cat bit at the beginning faster, as it's a little long. Also, maybe put in some writing at the end , with date and location. Apart from that, it's perfect! They'll love it! :T Oh, and congratulations! What a fun couple you are. :D
  • It's cool but 7minutes PLUS?! i got bored at the beginning and fastfoward to when you can in then watched !

    I love timelapse, but only, generally, if something of significance happens. So I didn't really understand why it was there and skipped forward, as you suggested. Maybe it's an "in" joke, who knows? As for the rest of it, you both must have massive balls, because I thought it was truly awful: terrible: cringeworthy. It was difficult to understand what you were "rapping" so I can imagine that it may create a lot more questions, unless you're sending some "conventional" invites as well.

    Good tune though.
