SWITZERLAND WEDDING PROPOSALS
VIDEOGRAPHER & PHOTOGRAPHER
Destination Wedding Film Company Story of Your Day is based in Wengen, in the Bernese Oberland, at the heart of the Swiss Alps.
Its Creative Director, Emma Wilson, is the go-to videographer and photographer in the Jungfrau Region for proposals, vow renewals, and engagement shoots in the Swiss Alps.
“I am so fortunate to be living in a Swiss mountain village in one of the most beautiful countries, with an abundance of stunning locations for photography and videography sessions, set amongst the breathtaking Swiss mountains and nearby lakes.”
Emma
“The best bit comes after a hard climb”
WHY CHOOSE THE JUNGFRAU REGION FOR YOUR WEDDING PROPOSAL?
If you’re looking for an unforgettable location for a wedding proposal, wedding vow renewal, or an exciting engagement shoot, look no further than the Jungfrau Region of Switzerland. The iconic Lauterbrunnen Valley and surrounding areas offer breathtaking mountains, serene lakes, and charming Alpine villages, providing a truly unforgettable setting for your special moments.
Alpine Wedding Proposals, Vow Renewals & Engagement Shoots
As a destination wedding videographer based in the heart of Switzerland, I have access to the best locations for filming Swiss wedding proposals, vow renewals, pre- or post-wedding shoots, and digital invites. The stunning lakes are perfect for summer weddings, while the majestic mountains provide a breathtaking backdrop year-round.
Living in Wengen, a tiny Swiss mountain village in the Jungfrau Region, I am surrounded by nature, which lends itself perfectly to weddings, elopements, and proposals. I’ve captured numerous proposals with the iconic Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains as a stunning backdrop, making each moment unforgettable.

PHILOSOPHY
As Creative Director of Story Of Your Day, I want to redefine wedding films, change how they’re perceived and in doing so, offer something unique and exceptional to all my clients.
I don’t just make wedding films. I tell stories about people, places and love — and they just so happen to be getting married …
Working as a journalist and filmmaker at the BBC for over twenty years has taught me a really powerful lesson – no two stories are the same. I draw on that knowledge and experience to ensure that each and every one of my clients has a wedding film unlike any other.
There’s something quite amazing about experiencing and feeling a story and then retelling it in a unique film that brings the story back to life. As my clients, you also share the same ethos and passion.
“Everything I do is inspired by you. We’ll work closely together to tell your unique and extraordinary story.”
Emma
“THERE’S ALWAYS ROOM FOR A STORY THAT CAN TRANSPORT PEOPLE TO ANOTHER PLACE”
J.K. ROWLING, NOVELIST, FILM PRODUCER
…and that’s what we want for all our clients. To watch back their wedding film and to feel they’re in the moment all over again, to relive it and all the emotions it evokes within.
Team Emma will discreetly capture moments of the day as they unfold naturally and bring them back to life in an authentic, timeless and cinematic-styled film. For destination weddings, we usually arrive on location a day ahead of the wedding itself so we can gather footage of the surrounding area, venue and of course get to know you and your story, with a pre-wedding shoot.
With Story Of Your Day, you’re investing in an unforgettable experience and an exceptional way of remembering it.
Proposal & Engagement Expertise
Planning a proposal is a momentous occasion, and capturing it beautifully is paramount. As the Creative Director at Story Of Your Day, I specialise in creating cinematic proposals that will become cherished memories. With years of experience, I approach every proposal and engagement shoot with the same passion and dedication, ensuring your love story is captured in a cinematic masterpiece.
Let’s collaborate to create an unforgettable memory that will be treasured for a lifetime.
