Save the Date Video Maker

By MakeThisVid Editorial Updated Methodology

A video save-the-date gets saved to phones and shown to friends in a way a paper card can't. Describe the mood of your wedding — a sunset vineyard, a coastal cliff, a candlelit garden — or animate one of your engagement photos, and MakeThisVid renders a short, elegant clip. Add your names and the date as a text overlay and send it by text, email, or story. $2.99 makes one clean video, ready in about a minute — or add 3 more takes for $6.99 — any photo, any look, same clean 1080p with commercial use.

Make an occasion video from one prompt. $2.99 a video · Ready in about a minute · No subscription.
