Hi everyone! 👋
I’m Simi, the face behind Candid Camcorders North East! 📹✨
I am so excited to finally launch this page! I’m a local here in the Gateshead area (and a busy PhD student by day! 📚), but the real inspiration for this business actually came from my own wedding...
On our big day, we handed out camcorders to our bridal party to get their POV and capture the behind-the-scenes moments. Honestly? It was one of the best decisions we made. They captured so much hilarious, unfiltered magic that our professional videographer naturally couldn't be everywhere to catch. We look back on those raw memories all the time, and we will forever cherish them. 🤍
I want every couple to have that exact same joy, but I kept seeing a massive problem: couples want that trendy, Y2K-style "home video" vibe, but they don't want the hassle of buying old cameras, hunting down batteries, or spending hours trying to export files onto their laptops while hungover. 🥂
So, I made it completely stress-free. Here is exactly how it works:
1. The "His & Hers" Drop-Off: 🚗 On the morning of your wedding, I deliver a beautiful box with 2 vintage-style digital camcorders directly to your venue (One for the Bridal Suite prep, and one for the Groomsmen's morning!).
2. The Guestbook Add-On: 💌 Want even more laughs? You can add a 3rd camcorder that I set up in its own display box as a dedicated "Video Guestbook" station for your guests to leave hilarious, unfiltered messages throughout the day.
3. The Fun: 💃 Your bridal party passes them around all day and night, capturing the raw, messy, beautiful behind-the-scenes magic.
4. The Pick-Up & Delivery: 📥 I collect the cameras the very next morning. Within 48 hours, I send you a Google Drive link with all your raw, unedited footage neatly organized into folders. You just sit back and watch the memories!
No editing headaches, no hidden fees, just pure nostalgia.
If you are getting married in the North East in 2026 or 2027 and want to capture the real vibe of your day, send me a DM! I am currently taking on my first 5 bookings with a massive £150 Spring Intro Offer for the "His & Hers" Package. 💌
Can't wait to chat with some of you!
Love, Simi ✨
