Couples will be able to share their ceremony in real-time with an unlimited number of virtual guests. Using fixed and roaming cameras and professional audio equipment, the team can stream every detail of the ceremony, and even cut to pre- recorded welcome and thank you messages to create a personal experience for your guests. Gary Gumbleton from Capital Content tells us: “The idea for Front Row came to me after some close friends of mine had to postpone their wedding. We’ve put together a simple, live streaming package designed with weddings in mind. We’ll provide a private link for you to share with as many guests as you like, and they’ll be able to watch your ceremony live from the comfort of their own home. Despite the pandemic, we can now make your big day bigger in a completely COVID-safe way. Even for couples who have decided to postpone their date to 2021, live streaming may be a reassuring safety net. While we are all hopeful that things will go back to normal soon, booking a live streaming package can safeguard future wedding plans against the uncertainty of COVID-19.” For weddings taking place in Surrey before the end of September 2020, Capital Content is offering Front Row live streaming for an introductory price of £500 including VAT.
