Wedding Weekender | Freelance Wedding Video Editor

Company Description

Wedding Weekender is redefining wedding videography by helping couples capture their wedding weekends in an authentic, affordable way. We rent camcorders for family and friends to film the weekend—then our team organizes the footage and edits it into a wedding video that feels true and unique to each couple's celebrations.

We're a fast-growing, creative start-up building a scalable post-production team to deliver high-quality, on-brand wedding films at volume. Since our launch this year, we've been featured in the New York Times, Vogue Weddings, Martha Stewart Weddings, and more. We're looking for a creative, experienced wedding video editor to bring Wedding Weekender films to life.

Role Description

This is a full-time freelance role (remote-friendly) at Wedding Weekender. We're looking for an editor with exceptional editorial judgment, storytelling instincts, pacing, and musicality who can turn imperfect footage into something that feels authentic, emotional, funny, and deeply specific to each couple.

This role is adecuado for an editor who can work independently, make strong creative decisions, respond thoughtfully to feedback, and consistently deliver high-quality work at a professional pace.

- Adjust and balance audio levels, reduce background noise,



and sync sound for a clean final mix

- Highly organized with strong attention to detail
- Comfortable managing multiple projects and deadlines in a remote, fast-moving environment
- Ability to work independently from a brief and make creative decisions without needing every cut prescribed.
