No re-editing: from the same wedding edit, WedCut makes a 9:16 vertical with the best of the day, or turns your finished teaser into 9:16, 4:5 or 1:1 keeping your colour and audio. All on your computer, without uploading the footage anywhere.

Step by step

The wedding reel, step by step

  1. Cut the wedding teaser

    You analyse the footage and prepare the teaser with your song, in Musical or Narrative.

  2. Choose the vertical format

    Reel: your teaser in 9:16, 4:5 or 1:1. Stories: a vertical with music from the shots you mark.

  3. Pick the shots, or leave it to the AI

    In Stories you pick the shots you want, or none and the AI chooses from the best of the wedding.

  4. Export it with your colour and your audio

    The vertical comes out with the colour and sound of your edit, ready for Instagram or TikTok.
