Wedding Ceremony Livestreaming
Midstream offers Wedding livestreaming services to help your family and friends, wherever they may be, to be part of your wedding ceremony.
This is not a wedding videography package – but rather an addition to your day, to have it livestreamed for those far and wide – and we want to work with your wedding videographer, so they can use our footage to create their beautiful wedding video for you.
There are numerous reasons to have your wedding ceremony live streamed, from venue size, to making sure that family and friends internationally (or even further-afield in the UK) are able to watch, to just having it available as a reminder of your special day, that you can review in months or years to come or even to show to children one day!
We work with professional, cinema grade, cameras and equipment to deliver the very best stream that we can for your clients. We can utilise either a church or venues internet if they have it available, or we also have access to a mobile network router to use mobile masts to connect to the internet.

*Livestreams will be available live during the event. If there are any issues during, all livestreams are recorded, as-is in Full HD, and we can make these available as soon as possible. This is rare, but we can never guarantee the internet connection at all venues unfortunately. Pro - Turnaround for final recorded version from is 2 days.
All packages also include audio cover, whether that is us working with the venue to use their local PA, or installing a basic system (up to 4 microphones) to make sure that everyone can hear, as well as see what is going on.
Recording
-
The Recording package includes a professionally edited, Full HD video, with none of the limitations of live production!
By default, it includes 1 operator with two cameras - one fixed wide, and one tracking the events of the day. (This is the same as livestreaming standard.)
This offering can be built out with our additional options below to fit your needs (and as always, we’re happy to advise.)
Upon completion, we can send the video in the most practical way for you, whether that is sending the video file, hosting privately or publicly on our YouTube channel or physically via a USB (additional cost.)
-
We can also offer a £50 upgrade to the final video to be produced in 4K resolution, and can make the files available to your main videographer for use in their video for you.
-
No problem!
For recording, we don’t need any kind of internet access on site.
-
We can deliver your final file in a variety of ways.
We can either deliver the file digitally on the Midstream YouTube channel - which allows anyone with the link to watch the video.
We can deliver the file as a digital download, where you can download the video file to your computer or phone and play back there.
Or we can send you a physical USB (additional £20) with the digital file - which can be played back on any computer, a tv with a USB port, or some phones.
Or any combination of these.
Livestream, Standard
-
This is our most common livestreaming package.
It includes one Operator with 2 cameras, one that will be fixed in a wide view and an operated camera that will follow whoever is speaking during the service. It is simple, but provides a great view of the service for those watching remotely.
We don’t offer recordings other than the livestream itself, which will be available on the platform after the service (although be aware, there can often be some processing time directly after the service before it becomes available.)
But we do always have a backup recording, which we will make available within 24 hours should there be any technical difficulties with the internet connection causing issues with the livestream.
-
We can still livestream if your venue doesn’t have internet available, via use of a 5G router (included in the package)
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee good internet access at every venue, we can always make an un-edited recording available within 24 hours should there be any technical issues.
-
In terms of livestreaming platforms, we can make use of our Midstream YouTube channel and unlisted streams (where family and friends can view via a link, but it won’t be available publicly on YouTube.) We will always keep livestreams available in our account, so that family can watch these again after the service, if they aren’t able to watch in real time. (Although please do be aware, most platforms will process livestreams directly after it finishes and so it may take a couple of hours for it to be available. Please contact us if it is unavailable after 24 hours.)
Livestream, Pro
-
Livestreaming pro is our more comprehensive package, with multiple team members.
It includes two Operators to run two tracking cameras to follow the events of the day, plus two fixed cameras (a wide, and potentially a fixed view of the lectern, or whatever the team feels is appropriate on the day.)
Following the service, we will make available a 4K quality recording that has been re-edited to make sure it can be as good as it can possibly be. We can either host this privately on our YouTube channel, on your YouTube or Vimeo account, as a digital download or for an additional cost, on a USB drive.
We can also make this available to your main videographer, for them to use in their video for you.
-
We can still livestream if your venue doesn’t have internet available, via use of a 5G router (included in the package)
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee good internet access at every venue, we can always make an un-edited recording available within 12 hours should there be any technical issues.

AV Hire
Whilst we are not specifically an AV hire company, we do have a range of AV kit ourselves and we will make sure we’re able to get a good audio feed from whatever venue we are in.
We do also work with an AV company should you need a more comprehensive set up
Price varies, depending upon requirements
Bespoke solutions
Our packages are designed to cover a wide range of standard livestreams, but we are aware that every couple is unique, and sometimes you need a more unique solution.
This could range from running in a more or less complex set up than our packages allow, to working with our partners to install a more comprehensive PA set up, or install a temporary projector or TV systems for powerpoints/videos (and ran this back to the livestream also.)
Whatever you need, contact us on nathan@midstream.live and we will aim to respond timely with a quote. (We often work with external partners for some of these items, and their pricing is outside of our control.)
