Question 3

What is a Newlywed Video?

Accepted Answer

A Newlywed Video is a personalized keepsake video built from short phone-recorded answers to questions about a couple. It's a popular bridal-shower and bachelorette-party activity where guests record clips and the recipient watches them later, often guessing what their partner said.

Question 4

How do I make a Newlywed Video for a bridal shower?

Accepted Answer

Pick a theme and matching music, enter the couple's names, choose from our 500+ questions (or write your own), then record a short video answer to each question on any phone or laptop. When you're done, we compile the clips into a polished MP4 you can download and play at the party.

Question 5

How long does it take to make a Newlywed Video?

Accepted Answer

Most people finish in 15–30 minutes. Picking a theme and questions takes about five minutes; recording answers takes another 10–20 depending on how many questions you choose.

Question 6

Can guests record answers on their phone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The whole recording flow is designed for phones — front or rear camera, with a countdown, trimming, and automatic upload. You can also send a share link to another person (for example, the groom) so they can record every answer from their own phone without needing an account.

Question 7

How many questions should the video include?

Accepted Answer

We recommend 8–15 questions. That's usually 3–6 minutes of finished video, which keeps the energy up at a party. The free tier allows a small number of questions; paid plans allow more.

Question 8

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

There are two plans: Free and Premium. Free lets you try the flow and preview a short video. Premium unlocks the full question count, HD download, all themes with matching background music, professional voice narration, and a parting-thoughts closing clip. Current pricing is shown on the pricing page before checkout.

Question 9

Is there a free version?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can use the Free plan to try the flow and build a short preview. Upgrading to Premium unlocks the full question count, HD export, all themes, voice narration, and a parting-thoughts message.

Question 10

Can I download the finished video?

Accepted Answer

Yes — paid plans give you an MP4 download you can play offline at the party, post on social media, or save as a keepsake.

Question 11

What themes are available?

Accepted Answer

We ship several pre-made themes including tropical, cute, classic, rustic, modern, and party. Each theme includes a color palette, matching background music, and multiple background variations so every video looks a little different.

Question 12

Can I use my own music?

Accepted Answer

Each theme ships with curated, licensed background music. Using your own music isn't supported today because third-party tracks create copyright issues when the video is shared.

Question 13

Can I add a message or parting thoughts at the end?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Premium plans let the recorder add a short closing message — a personal note or well-wish that plays at the end of the video.

Question 14

How do I send the recording request to the groom or partner?

Accepted Answer

On the upload screen, tap "Send to recorder." We create a password-protected share link you can text or email. The recipient opens the link, records answers to every question from their phone, and you get notified when they're done.

Question 15

Can the questions be narrated with a voice?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on Premium. Choose from a selection of professional voices and we'll narrate each question before the answer plays, giving the finished video a polished, TV-show feel.

Question 16

Does this work on iPhone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The recording experience is built for iPhone and Android Safari/Chrome — it uses the native camera with a countdown and works without any app install. It also works on desktop with a webcam.

Question 17

Is the video private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Uploads are stored privately — only you and anyone you share a link with can view them. We never publish videos or share recordings with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Question 18

Can I edit the video after it's generated?

Accepted Answer

Yes, up until you mark it as finalized. You can re-record individual answers, swap the theme or music, re-order clips on the timeline, and regenerate as many times as you need.

Question 19

What file formats are supported for upload?

Accepted Answer

Any standard video format your phone or browser records — typically MP4 (H.264) or WebM. We handle transcoding automatically.

Question 20

What's the best way to play the video at the party?

Accepted Answer

Use Game Mode on the Watch & Download page. After each question, the video automatically pauses on the recorder's reveal so the recipient has time to guess what they said — then tap to resume and see the answer. Connect a laptop or phone to a TV or projector and you have an instant, interactive game without any setup. You can also download the MP4 for offline playback.

Question 21
