Rehearsal Dinner Montage
You do not have to make the rehearsal dinner slideshow yourself. Send us your photos and we build it for you. The Montage Maven, Westchester NY, serving couples nationwide.
The rehearsal dinner is the one night before the wedding when the room is small enough that a video really lands. Everyone there already knows you. That is what makes it the right night for it.

Here is the one we made for Carlie and Jake, played the night before the wedding.
A Rehearsal Dinner Montage, Not a Last-Minute Slideshow
You could make it yourself. Plenty of people try, usually the week of, usually at one in the morning, usually with a folder of photos that will not cooperate and software that quits without warning. If you have the time and you enjoy that sort of thing, genuinely, go for it.
Most people do not have the time. They have a wedding in nine days and a seating chart that is still wrong. That is when they call us. We take the same photos and build something with pacing and music that plays properly on a big screen, and you get that week back.

What Goes Into a Rehearsal Dinner Slideshow
Childhood photos from both sides. The two of you long before you met. The trip where it got serious. The proposal, if somebody caught it. Phone clips, home video, prints out of an album. We work with whatever you have, in whatever condition it is in.
Gathering the Photos, and Why to Start Now
The pictures you want most are never on your phone. They are with your parents, your college roommate, and in a group chat from four years ago. Start asking sooner than feels necessary. It always turns up something nobody remembered, and those are the ones the room reacts to.
Everything Happens in One Place
You get a private link to your own page. Upload photos and video from your phone or your laptop, then send that same link to anyone you like: your mother, his sister, the friend with the good camera roll. They add theirs. Everything lands in one place instead of scattered across six text threads.
Drag the photos into the order you want them to play. Leave a note on any of them. This is her grandmother. Do not use this one. Start here. When your draft is ready you watch it on that same page and tell us what to change right on the video, at the exact second you mean.
Nothing to install and no account to make, which matters when you are asking a parent to send photos from an old laptop.
Choosing the Music
The song does most of the emotional work. Same photos, different song, completely different room. We will talk it through with you rather than hand you a list.
How It Works
You send what you have. We build it. You watch a draft and tell us what to change. We deliver a file ready for the screen at the restaurant.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we start our rehearsal dinner montage?
The edit itself does not take long. Gathering photos from both families does. Start that as early as you can and the rest is easy.
Is a rehearsal dinner slideshow the same as a montage?
People use both words for the same thing. The difference is in the making. A montage is edited to music with real pacing, rather than photos advancing on a timer.
Can you include photos and videos from both of our families?
Yes, and you should. The best moment in most rehearsal dinner montages is a photo one side has never seen.
What is the ideal length for a rehearsal dinner montage?
Four to seven minutes. People are eating and talking, so the video has to earn the room quickly.
Can you do it on short notice?
Often, yes. Tell us the date and we will tell you straight away whether we can make it.
