Guests film the day
They scan, tap record or snap a photo, and keep partying. No app, no account. Everything uploads quietly in the background, even on patchy Wi-Fi.
Watch them before the send-off
Our editor picks the best moments and cuts up to three films to music: romantic, funny and party. They land on your phone before the sparklers are lit.
One night, 3 films
A film for every mood of the night.
The same footage tells more than one story. Pick up to 3 moods and Sparkler cuts a separate film for each, with its own pace, look and music, all included for $249. Every one is edited like a pro would: steady shots, the best lines of each toast, cuts that land on the beat.
The romantic film
Romantic
Soft, warm and slow.
Your vows, the first kiss and the first dance. Lingering shots, gentle crossfades and a warm glow.
Tender piano and strings, 60 to 92 bpm
The funny film
Funny
The laughs and the bloopers.
Toasts that got a laugh, candid reactions and the unplanned moments. Snappy cuts, bright and playful.
Bouncy and playful, 96 to 132 bpm
The party film
Party
Fast, bright, beat-driven.
The entrance, the dance floor and every cheer. Quick cuts on the beat and a few speed ramps.
Dance-floor energy, 115 to 135 bpm
Prefer something else? Classic (timeless and clean) and Documentary (real voices, real moments) are there too.
Plus your own cut, built clip by clip.
Photos too
Every photo your guests take, in one album.
Guests snap photos from the same page they film from. Each one is straightened, sorted by moment and guest, and checked for blur and closed eyes. The best of them appear in your films, with a slow, gentle zoom timed to the music.
- A private album you can share with guests
- Photos in the film, framed around faces
- Favourite, hide, or download them all at once
Compare
The film you'd skip, for a tenth of the price.
A third of couples skip the videographer. Sparkler is for them, and for anyone who can't wait twelve weeks.

Questions
Good things to ask.
Who can see our clips and our film?
Only you. Your guest page is unlisted, clips are stored privately and encrypted at rest, and your film lives on a private link that only people you share it with can open. We never use your footage for ads, and you can ask us to delete everything at any time.
What do guests need?
Just a phone with a camera. They scan the QR code on your sign or table card, and the page opens in their browser. There is no app to install and no account to create. Guests can add their name so you know who filmed what, or stay anonymous.
What if the venue Wi-Fi is bad?
Sparkler is built for it. Clips upload in small pieces in the background, retry automatically, and pick up where they left off if a guest loses signal, locks their phone or closes the page. Anything that arrives after the send-off goes into your extended cut the next morning.
What if our guests don't film much?
Most weddings have plenty: 40 guests who each film three 20-second clips make two hours of footage for a three-minute film. The dashboard shows uploads live, and the “what’s happening now” prompts on the guest page nudge people at the moments that matter. If there truly isn't enough for a film, we refund you.
Do we really get three films?
Yes, all included in the one price. Pick up to three moods, say romantic, funny and party, and Sparkler cuts a separate film for each from the same footage. They share the big moments (the vows, the kiss) but are otherwise built from different clips: the romantic one lingers on the first dance, the funny one finds the toast lines that got a laugh, the party one lives on the dance floor. All of them are ready by your send-off.
What happens to the photos guests take?
Every photo lands in your private album the moment it uploads: straightened, sorted by moment and guest, with blurry and closed-eye shots set aside. You can favourite or hide any of them, download them all in one go, and share the album with guests on your film page. The best photos also appear in your films, with a gentle slow zoom timed to the music.
Is the music licensed?
Yes. Every film gets a song from Sparkler's own library of original music, made for wedding films and matched to the film's mood and pace (or chosen by you). Your films come with the right to share them on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and anywhere else you like.
Can we choose exactly what goes in?
Yes. Alongside your films, the dashboard has a “Your cut” builder: pick the clips and photos you want, drag them into order (or let Sparkler order them by time), trim if you like, and choose a song and a look. Sparkler edits it with the same care and you can remake it as often as you like.
We already have a photographer. Does this replace a videographer?
For many couples, yes. You get a film made from dozens of real points of view, the same night, for about a tenth of the price. If you have a videographer, Sparkler is a lovely same-night teaser while you wait for their cut.
