wedding & elopement films in curaçao
Endless sunshine, turquoise waters, and colorful architecture, Curaçao is a Caribbean gem I’m lucky to call home.
If you’re planning a wedding here, chances are you’re dreaming of something a little different. Maybe an intimate beach ceremony with the ocean in the background, or a sunset celebration at a private villa with your closest people. As a wedding videographer in Curaçao, these are exactly the kinds of weddings I love capturing.
This island has so much more to offer than the beaches you see on postcards. Think colorful colonial streets in Willemstad, hidden coves along the rugged coastline, historic plantations tucked into green hills, and sunsets that seem to stretch on forever.
Because I live here, I know the quiet spots away from the crowds, the best time of day for that soft golden light, and the local vendors who help make a wedding day feel effortless. I quietly capture the big moments and the small ones in between, turning them into a film that feels alive, personal, and true to your story.

What couples say
“Throughout the weekend, she blended effortlessly into our group and captured the quiet, meaningful in-between moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Ellen didn’t just document our wedding; she truly immersed herself in it, and we are so grateful for the way she told our story.”
– Keegan & Laura
Hi, I’m Ellen
Dutch destination wedding & elopement videographer based in Curaçao, a natural at blending in, and the calm presence you’ll barely notice. Until you watch your film and realize I captured all the magic.
I never grew up dreaming of making wedding films, but after my first wedding in 2023, I was sold. Now I film weddings full-time.
I’m drawn to couples who want to live their day, not perform it, who embrace the wind in their hair, who follow their own path, laugh too loud, and care more about how it feels than how it looks.
On the day itself, I blend in like an extra friend, move as if I’m part of your guests, and somehow end up on the dance floor, all so I can capture your genuine moments without standing out. I notice the details you’ll love remembering and sense when to quietly fade into the background.
Because let’s face it, you don’t want just anyone present on one of the most personal days of your life. You want someone who gets it. Someone who will make sure your day is preserved exactly as it felt, every laugh, every glance, every small, perfect chaos.
MY APPROACH
A calm presence, not a production.
If the idea of cameras everywhere makes you a little nervous, you’re not alone. Most couples I work with tell me the same thing: they want their wedding to feel relaxed and natural, not like they’re performing for a camera.
That’s exactly how I approach filming.
No big productions.
No awkward posing.
No constant directing.
My films aren’t about staged poses, slow-motion clichés, or perfect choreography. They’re about the real moments: the laughter with your friends, the quiet glances between you and your partner, the happy tears, and the energy that fills the room.
I capture your wedding as it naturally unfolds. I blend in like an extra guest, paying attention to the little moments unfolding around you.
That way, you can focus on being fully present with the people you love.
Your extra friend on your wedding
On your wedding day, I’m not just the person with the camera. Think of me as your extra friend for the day. The one who helps keep things relaxed and calm when the nerves start to kick in, and notices the little moments unfolding around you.
I adapt easily to every vibe and group, instinctively knowing when to quietly blend into the background. Always present, but never intrusive. That way, you can focus on what really matters: living your day with the people you love, instead of feeling like you’re performing for a camera.
“Every time we watch our videos, we notice new moments we had missed on the day. Everything is captured beautifully. We’re so grateful we chose Ellen,
for both the result and her warm, kind presence and natural connection with everyone around her.”– Jos & Laura

FAQ
How much does a wedding videographer in Curaçao cost?
My wedding film prices start at €2,950 for 6 hours of coverage.
Most couples invest more depending on additional hours or films.
Full pricing and examples can be found in the brochure.
Can we customize our wedding film package?
Yes. Every wedding is different, so coverage can always be tailored to your plans.
Are travel costs included?
For weddings in Curaçao, travel is included.
And if you’re planning a helicopter or boat ride… just save me a seat.

If you’re planning a wedding somewhere else, you can find more practical information in the blog: Practical Information: Hiring a Wedding Videographer Abroad
Do you have a drone?
Yes, and I love flying it! I always include the drone in my packages. Just know that due to local laws and weather conditions, it’s not always possible to fly the drone.
What if you’re sick on the big day?
I’ve never missed a wedding (knock on wood), but I do have a strong network of trusted videographers who could step in if needed.
If that ever happened, I would still edit the film myself to ensure you receive the same style and quality.
Do we need to be comfortable on camera?
Not at all. Most couples I work with say the same thing beforehand: they’re a little nervous about being filmed. But because my approach is very natural and unobtrusive, most people forget the camera is even there.
Do you have a different question? Feel free to ask.
YES, THIS ALL SOUNDS AMAZING… BUT WHAT’S NEXT?
Can I go where you go?
