Your Story. As it actually happened

Couples who work with us want more than their Switzerland wedding recorded. They want their love story told.

A Story Of Your Day wedding film is not a highlight reel. It is a cinematic film built around the real moments, real emotion and real atmosphere of your day.

Every wedding I film is individual. Every story is extraordinary. Never a replica. Never a formula.

Resistance is my superpower. We don’t follow trends. We create films that are authentic, soulful and enduring.

I didn’t adopt storytelling. I defined it.

When you book Story Of Your Day, you book Emma Wilson. From the first conversation to the final film.

Every film is directed, filmed and edited by Emma Wilson. No exceptions.

Switzerland is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. It is also one of the most private.

Emma Wilson, in a pink jacket and winter hat stands outdoors in a snowy Switzerland landscape, holding a camera and smiling near a pine tree.

I film destination weddings worldwide.
Switzerland is home.

I’m Emma Wilson, Creative Director and Visionary behind Story Of Your Day. Before founding my brand, I built a 20-year career with the BBC as a Pioneer Videojournalist, Reporter, and Newsreader. That background sharpened my instinct for storytelling and integrity.

With over 15 years of filming weddings and more than 250 celebrations captured in 15+ countries, I bring a depth of experience few in the industry can match.

In 2016, while still working as a BBC Video Journalist, I took a six-month sabbatical with my family to Switzerland. We never left. Today, I live and work in the heart of the Alps. From here, I film weddings across Switzerland, throughout Europe and beyond.

INTEGRITY

Without

COMPROMISE

Integrity is the foundation of Story Of Your Day.

I brought that standard from my years at the BBC and will never compromise on it.

Every decision, from preparation to capture to edit, is guided by honesty, intuition, and uncompromising standards of excellence.

Every film I create is cinematic. And true.

A bride in a white dress and a groom in a blue suit walk hand in hand outdoors, smiling at each other, with lush greenery and the stunning landscapes of Switzerland as their perfect wedding videography backdrop.

Our Cinematic Approach

This philosophy shapes the way I work. I don’t imitate, stage, or follow industry fashions. Instead, I use my journalistic instinct to uncover what makes your story unique.

The process begins long before your wedding day. From the first enquiry, I take time to listen, prepare, and understand what matters most to you. The more I learn, the more authentic and personal your film becomes.

On the day itself, I am discreet and unobtrusive, capturing moments as they unfold naturally. Because we’ve prepared well, I can remain open to spontaneity and weave those moments seamlessly into your story. Every film is personally overseen and edited by me, Emma Wilson.

The result is not a stylised, ‘perfume-advert’ production, but a story-led, editorially grounded film that feels true, intimate, and impossible to replicate.

This is Wedding Videojournalism, crafted with integrity and designed to endure.

You Deserve the Best

Finding the right wedding suppliers in a foreign country takes time. We can help.

We have spent years filming weddings across Switzerland and are part of a close-knit network of high-end wedding professionals – photographers, planners and venue specialists who meet our standards.

Switzerland WEDDING Destination

Switzerland has Everything

It’s a dream destination wedding location. Here’s where I’d point you.

Famous Hotels & Venues

Suvretta House and Badrutt’s Palace in St. Moritz set the standard for alpine glamour. The Grand Hotel Kronenhof in Pontresina is equally stunning. On Lake Geneva, Fairmont Le Montreux Palace is in a class of its own. In Bern, the Schweizerhof Hotel & Spa delivers quiet, refined elegance.

Lakeside Castles

Schloss Oberhofen and Schloss Schadau sit on the shores of Lake Thun in the Jungfrau Region — two of the most romantic settings I’ve filmed at. Schloss Bottmingen in Basel is a lesser-known gem. And Château Chillon in Montreux is simply extraordinary.

Intimate & Secluded

For something smaller and private, Lake Blausee is unlike anywhere else in Switzerland. Villa Honegg above Lake Lucerne offers complete seclusion with alpine views. Grand Hotel Giessbach, beside the Giessbach Falls, is one of the most romantic spots in the country.

For some couples, adventure is the ultimate luxury

Elopement & Ski Wedding Videography

THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING…

Switzerland embodies privacy & intimacy – it was made for elopements and intimate weddings with just a few guests.

Wengen, where I live, is a stunning car-free ski resort in the Jungfrau Region. An abundance of awe-inspiring locations for ski and adventure weddings in the majestic Swiss Alps are here in my backyard. I have combined my passion for filmmaking and skiing and have lots of experience skiing while filming!

Read about our approach

 Most couples who skip videography regret it. If you’re investing in a destination wedding, it makes sense to capture it — the place, the people, and the emotion.
Read: 15 Reasons NOT to Hire a Wedding Videographer

 I’m a BBC-trained video journalist. I tell stories with authenticity and structure, not trends or templates. Each film is a cinematic time capsule that reflects your day and your story.
Why we’re the original storytellers

We don’t offer packages. We create bespoke commissions based on the scale of your plans. It’s an investment in a film that captures how your day felt — not just how it looked.

Yes. We work with a small team of trusted photographers. Booking both through Story Of Your Day means a cohesive style and better value.

We offer the best of both worlds — English-speaking, with deep local knowledge. From permits and mountain access to working with trusted suppliers, we know the landscape.
Why local vendors matter

Start by getting in touch. If our style and values align, we’ll arrange a discovery call. We only take on a limited number of commissions each year.

Planning a proposal, elopement, or wedding in Switzerland comes with decisions that go far beyond the location.

You’re not navigating this alone.
