About Dakar Wedding Films
For 10 years Dakar Wedding Films has been filming celebrations in and around Dakar, working at every scale from a family gathering in a courtyard to multi-day celebrations. The films are cut from what actually happened — speeches, first dances, the quiet moments between. Nothing is templated, because no two celebrations want the same thing.
A planning call settles the shot list, the audio sources for speeches and where the second camera sits, so nothing important is decided on the day itself. Every booking includes a highlight film and the full ceremony edit, delivered in 4K. Questions are answered in writing, changes to the plan are normal and cost nothing before the event, and you always know who will actually be there on the day.
Dakar Wedding Films operates from Dakar, works in fr / en and takes bookings from 350 000 XOF. Enquiries are answered within 6h with an itemised written quote rather than a range. Popular dates — spring and end-of-year Saturdays especially — are typically gone four to six months out. You are not charged for asking.

We changed the plan twice in the last month and it was never a problem. Calm, organised and completely reliable.
Answered every question quickly in the run-up, and on the day just quietly got on with it. The difference was obvious.
Booking was straightforward and the written quote matched the final invoice exactly. No surprises, which is all you want.
Blended everything so smoothly that nobody sat down all night. Several guests asked us for the contact before they left.
