Who will be actually filming the wedding. If this will not be videographer you are speaking with be sure to speak with YOUR videographer.
Ask to see several samples of work filmed by the videographer who'll be filming your wedding.
Have they filmed at your wedding site/location before. If so ask to see a sample.
What is the videographer's shooting style (documentary, cinematic).
What type of cameras will be used (3 chip, HD) and how new is the equipment.
What editing equipment will be used?
Will special effects be added to the video? If so, see a sample.
How will the sound be recorded? Will wireless microphones be used.
Will they tie into the sound system at the ceremony and reception sites?

Will they arrive before their contracted time to set-up?
How many cameras will be used?
