Wedding Film Hub vs Vimeo for Wedding Video Delivery

Vimeo is a general-purpose video hosting platform used by many wedding videographers for client delivery. It provides ad-free video playback, password protection, and customizable embed players. However, Vimeo does not support guest photo or video uploads, has no digital guestbook, cannot be fully white-labeled (Vimeo branding appears on the player), and requires a monthly subscription ($12–75/month). Wedding Film Hub (powered by Wedding Memory) is purpose-built for wedding delivery: it combines professional video galleries with guest uploads, a digital guestbook, and full white-label branding under the PRO's brand at $99 per wedding with no subscription.

When Each Platform Makes Sense

When Vimeo Makes Sense

  • You only deliver video (no photos, no guest interaction)
  • You want detailed video analytics (play rate, engagement graphs)
  • You need embeddable players for your portfolio website
  • You already have a Vimeo subscription for portfolio hosting
  • You deliver to clients who just want to watch a video, not interact

When Wedding Film Hub Is a Better Fit

  • You want the couple to receive an experience, not just a video link
  • You want guest uploads — collecting attendee photos and videos via QR code
  • You want a digital guestbook where guests leave comments and reactions
  • You want fully invisible branding — no Vimeo player, no platform logos
  • You deliver both video and photos in one organized gallery
  • You want chapter organization (Ceremony, Speeches, etc.) not a single video
  • You prefer per-wedding pricing ($99) over a monthly subscription
  • You want guests to access content by scanning a QR code at the venue

The Core Difference

Vimeo is for watching videos.
Wedding Film Hub is for reliving the wedding.

Vimeo ends when the video stops playing. Wedding Film Hub is a destination the couple and their guests return to for months — browsing, uploading, commenting, reacting, sharing.

It turns your delivered product from a one-time watch into an ongoing experience.
