    Sample 10 minute engagement scripts

    Idea: 'Our Journey to Forever'

    "Chronicle your story from your first meeting in a cozy San Francisco coffee shop to your Washington D.C. engagement photoshoot. Play 'Higher Love' by Kygo & Whitney Houston for the first 5 minutes, transitioning to 'You Are The Reason' by Calum Scott for the second half."

    Idea: 'The Adventure Continues'

    "Feature photos from your shared travels, hiking trips, or city explorations. Include a short voiceover snippet about a memorable adventure. Good background music could be 'Home' by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros or 'I Do' by Colbie Caillat."

    Idea: 'Love in the City of Angels'

    "For a Los Angeles couple, focus on iconic L.A. spots. Combine drone footage of your proposal at Griffith Observatory with candid shots from Santa Monica Pier. Soundtrack it with 'Marry You' by Bruno Mars and a slower song like 'Conversations in the Dark' by John Legend."
