Before comparing wedding slideshow quotes, check four conditions: (1) whether the amount is a standalone price, an add-on or a package deduction; (2) whether it covers photo editing, live filming or AI animation; (3) that a draft turnaround is not the final-file date; (4) that an unstated revision count is not unlimited. Of 7 providers reviewed, 5 published a relevant amount, but only 2 were standalone prices. For typical price ranges first, see wedding slideshow prices compared.
This is Dear Ever’s original review of public service information. The sample focuses on Hong Kong providers and all external amounts remain in HKD. It covers photo stories, interviews, live-action MVs and AI animation; these are not pooled into an average price. See the full table, method and CSV download and citation details. Dear Ever sells a photo-film service and is excluded from the 7-provider sample.
Three findings that change how to read a quote
- 5/7 published a relevant amount, but only 2 provided a standalone service price. The other 3 figures concerned a photography package, an add-on or a deduction for removing a service. They do not establish a standalone slideshow price.
- 2/7 published a draft time or pre-wedding delivery schedule for the service. One gave about seven days for a draft; the other worked backwards from the wedding date. These are different timing commitments.
- 2/7 stated a revision count. Both specified two rounds. An unstated count does not mean revisions are unavailable, or unlimited.
The 7-provider dataset: which prices describe the same purchase?
Every company name links to the official source used. “Not stated” concerns that page, not everything the provider may offer. These were the publicly readable details on the observation date; obtain a current written quote before booking.
| Provider / service | Published amount | Scope and conditions | Service timing / revisions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easy Video HK Photo story | Quote required | Storybook and travel examples, including short-video intercuts. Material limits and package scope require confirmation. | Neither stated. |
| 988 Film Concept Video | Quote required | One videographer, a three-hour interview shoot and three locations; a highlight under four minutes and a short Reels. | Neither stated for this package. |
| Kelvinshot Mini MV | HK$6,800 / 7,800 | Official rate card distinguishes a senior director from Kelvin; 2.5 hours, one or two locations and a video over two minutes. Photo-only and photo-plus-video plans are separate. | Neither stated. The inspected card has no printed offer-validity period; confirm applicability. |
| e-banner AI memory film | HK$8,800 / 10,800 / 13,800 | One, 1.5 or two minutes, respectively; story structure, AI animation, subtitles and original AI music. Specified music is quoted separately. | Draft in about seven days, subject to material and scope; up to two revisions. Final date unstated. |
| Secret Place Photography-page add-on | HK$800 | Slideshow fee within photography arrangements. Standalone availability, photo limit and runtime require confirmation. | Photos six weeks before; final selection four weeks before; download two weeks before the wedding. Revision count unstated. |
| Doki Production Photography-package option | Included choice / HK$1,000 extra | Full-day clients choose a slideshow or SDE, with an additional option listed; 50 photos, under five minutes. Standalone sale not established. | Service-specific delivery unstated; two free revision rounds. |
| Foto80s Full-day 1P1V package | HK$9,900 package; HK$400 deduction to omit slideshow | Photography, slideshow and SDE are bundled. The HK$400 deduction is not a standalone sale price. | Slideshow-specific timing and revision count unstated. |
4 hidden conditions to check before comparing quotes
1. Separate included benefits, add-ons and removal deductions
Doki’s included option depends on a full-day photography booking. Foto80s’ HK$400 is a deduction for omitting the slideshow. Neither establishes a standalone price at that amount. If you already need the photography package, ask for the incremental cost. If you only want a slideshow, request the standalone total.
2. Choose photo editing, live filming or AI animation before comparing
Kelvinshot’s Mini MV includes filming; e-banner’s plans include AI animation and story structure. These involve different work from arranging supplied photos, so a price-per-minute ranking would obscure the purchase. Decide how the photos should appear, whether you want to be filmed and who should handle story and sound, then inspect a relevant full example.
3. A draft turnaround is not a final-file deadline
e-banner gives about seven days for a draft; Secret Place schedules download two weeks before the wedding. Write down the material-complete date, draft date, revision deadline and final-file deadline separately. A photography page’s general post-wedding delivery schedule should not be transferred to a film needed before the reception.
4. An unstated revision count is not unlimited
Of the 7 providers, only e-banner and Doki Production state two revision rounds; the other pages say nothing. Silence does not mean revisions are refused, but it cannot be read as unlimited either. Ask in the quote whether changing music, reordering the story or adding photos counts as a revision.
What should you still ask for in a complete quote?
Use the same photo count, runtime and playback date when requesting quotes, then fill these gaps. This is an enquiry checklist, not a shared specification of the sampled providers.
- Total-price conditions: Can you buy it separately? Does the price depend on photography, branding or promotional permission? How are extra photos and runtime charged?
- Delivery: Pixel dimensions, aspect ratio, MP4 format, watermark status and a firm final-file date.
- Revisions: How many, what one round covers and whether changing music or story order costs extra.
- Use: Whether music and the film can be used at the reception, shared privately or published on social platforms.
For the work involved in different making routes, see DIY, commissioned services and platforms. Use the like-for-like enquiry brief to organise a request.
Method and counting rules
This is desk research of public information, not supplier interviews or a transaction survey. Existing provider research and supplementary search led to seven accessible official service pages, including pages without prices; inclusion was not based on having a price or being inexpensive. Each business counts once. Findings describe this convenience sample, not the whole market, an average paid price or service quality.
| Field | Counting rule | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Numerical price | Any explicit relevant amount counts, including a package or conditional figure; its price basis is recorded separately. | 5/7: two standalone plans, three package/add-on records; two quote-only records. |
| Service timing | An explicit draft turnaround, delivery date or pre-wedding schedule counts; filming hours do not. | 2/7: e-banner and Secret Place. |
| Revision count | A numerical revision allowance for the service counts; a general statement that adjustments are possible does not. | 2/7: e-banner and Doki Production. |
Kelvinshot’s official embedded rate-card image was inspected visually; a month in its filename is not treated as an expiry date. IMAGIN and TY Video PRO were excluded from this round after access verification and TLS connection issues, respectively, rather than filling gaps with earlier indexed prices. Missing fields are “not stated”, never zero. No mean or median is calculated across these different services.

Dear Ever’s “How to Compare Wedding Slideshow Quotes: 4 Hidden Conditions in 7 Published Plans” reviewed seven providers’ official service pages on October 19, 2026. Five published relevant amounts, of which three concerned package or add-on conditions; two stated service-specific timing and two stated revision counts. These are observations of a public-information sample.
