Here in 2020, on our 22nd Anniversary, I decided to just grab an "I do" excerpt from our wedding video for Facebook. I never put the whole thing on YouTube because it had lots of copyrighted music, and the video was never intended to be anything but a VHS keepsake for us and family. Back in 1998, YouTube wasn't even a lab project.
As I looked at the original edit, I realized that there was a lot of time with no music, so I edited around the music to come up with this version. The only song I had to leave in was Joe Cocker's "You Are So Beautiful", the song we danced our first dance to. I'm hoping they'll just 'monetize' it and not take the video down or silence the track.
