I usually start the multi-cam edit when the officiant begins speaking.

Cut back and forth to the best angles, but try not to be overly predictable.

Trim dead space and hide any shaky footage.

For audio, isolate the person speaking and disable other audio.

Try to mix in guest reactions throughout.

After I edit the main part of the ceremony, I go back and edit the processional. I usually “cheat” this footage so there are no awkward breaks.

Create a doc edit of each speech. Cut out long dead moments and hide with cuts.

Try to include laughs and stuff but isolate the speaker otherwise.

Fade to black and crossfade audio at the end of each speech.

Doc edit of each dance fade to black between parent dances.

If the person is mic-d use their audio unless it’s not cute.

Try to show both reactions and the best face as much as possible.

Typically do bridesmaids, dad, and groom.

Cut the audio where necessary.
