A couple sharing a moment during their wedding celebration

Legare FilmsMemories that bind us. Wedding films edited the way memory works.

A memory begins here

Our films follow the rhythm of memory.

One memory
leads to another.

Laughter on the dance floor brings back words from the ceremony, then a detail from getting ready.

That’s how we remember.
That’s how we make films.

The care

Before the camera,
we listen.

Every film begins by getting to know you.

  1. A conversationUnhurried, with no formula. We listen to how you picture the day and what matters to each of you.
  2. A meetingAfter booking, we come to you: at home, in a café, somewhere that is part of your story.
  3. The LegameEverything we hear becomes a script that is yours alone: people, songs, details and the reason behind each choice.
  4. The dayWe arrive with the script ready, guided by the Legame: getting ready, ceremony and party. And we leave room for what no one planned.
  5. The filmEdited the way memory works, connecting voices and gestures. It arrives as a gift, a way back to the day.

Legame

from Italian · bond, tie

From that conversation comes your Legame: a script that exists only once. Names, songs, gestures and the reason behind each choice. It guides our eye on the day.

Build our Legame

The way you remember.

Every couple brings a world of their own. That is where the film begins.

Tati & Gian

a couple and a half.

Two people who complete each other in their own madness: he is all heart, she is pure attitude. When love looks like this, nobody has to choose between tears and laughter. The ceremony was beautiful and deeply moving. The party belonged to the crowd, a funk MC on stage and the menace of the tequila robot. Two worlds in one day, and the film holds both.

Geisa & Felix

no pressure, right?

Filming the wedding of one of Brazil’s best-known celebrants is a delicious challenge: living up to the sensitivity of someone who moves people for a living. We saw partnership in a glance, in a dance for two and in the love of a child, who closes the film and sums up this family: sensitivity from start to finish.

Gabi & Thiago

rule number one: no opening with a drone.

Partners in everything, they decided to share a whole weekend with the people who love their story most. There were tears, endless laughter, a full dance floor and a groom grabbing the camera to film. Only one rule came in writing: the film could not open with a drone shot. Anyone who disobeyed would pay for it.

Some things stay with us.

Months of choices fit into a few short hours. Then the venue is taken down and the dress goes back on its hanger. The film stays: your father’s voice in the toast, your best friend’s laughter, the song that got everyone up.

In the order memory plays it back.

A Legare experience

The memory phone

hello? it’s the future calling.

A vintage phone waits for your guests. They pick up, hear your greeting and leave a message. One year after the wedding, we deliver those voices to you: a message to the future.

About us

Banik & Gillio

Banik comes from television, where he spent years interviewing people and learning to get close to what each of them holds most dear. For more than ten years he has run TB Films, a corporate video production company, creating content and documentaries for brands such as Athletico Paranaense and Boticário. He has also written about feelings as a columnist for one of Brazil’s major newspapers.

Gillio is a multi-instrumentalist who has spent more than a decade editing weddings, music videos and live shows. At Legare he leads direction, music and editing, and knows where the emotion of every story lives.

Together they have made films and documentaries and directed many people who had never stood in front of a camera. They are artists: they bring an eye for people and respect for the timing of every scene.

A few things you may be wondering

Before we meet.

Still have a question?

Let’s talk.
How will our film be unique?

Because it starts with a conversation, not a template. We have years of experience conducting interviews and making documentaries, and we use a listening method proven across many stories. No clichéd questions, no autopilot “so, how did he propose?”. We learn how you met, who matters to you and what each of you wants to remember. That is where the film begins.

What is the Legame?

It is the map of your wedding. It holds the people (who cannot be missed, the funniest, the shyest), the songs, the details and the reason behind each choice. We arrive on the day with the schedule in hand and a draft script ready, knowing everything that will happen. And with room for what no one planned.

How do you prepare the proposal?

Before sending any quote, we like to have a quick 15-minute chat with you. Understanding what your day needs is our job: you don’t need to arrive knowing how many hours of coverage or how many cameras to choose. We listen to how you picture the wedding and what matters to each of you, and build the proposal that best fits your story.

Do we need to know how to pose or speak on camera?

No. We get to know each other beforehand, and on the day you only need to live your wedding. Any direction or recorded conversation follows your pace and comfort.

Will the film follow the order of the day?

Not necessarily. It is edited the way memory works: words from the ceremony may meet a scene from the party, following your story and emotions. And we often create scenes that are all about you: a game, an inside joke, a moment that only makes sense to the two of you.

Do you film outside Curitiba and abroad?

We are based in Curitiba, but we work all over Brazil and travel abroad too. We believe this is where a film becomes most unique: with more time together, we can create, plan the script calmly and film what happens before and after, not just the wedding day. Schedule, coverage days and travel are agreed in the proposal.

How does a pre-wedding shoot work?

It is a filmed encounter before the wedding. Together we choose a place that means something to you and build the script from your Legame. The footage can become a film of its own, be screened at the party or become part of the wedding film.

Is the full ceremony included?

In the Romanzo collection, yes. In the others, it can be added.

When will we receive our films?

Elo and Trama within 45 business days. Romanzo within 60. Deadlines are set out in the contract.
