Locking In Your Most Important Wedding Vendors: Photo, Video… and Audio?

When couples start planning their big day, there's a tale-as-old-as-time checklist of vendors that get the early-bird treatment. Wedding photography? Check. Wedding videography? Check. Florals? Ordered months in advance.

But there’s a new must-have vendor quietly (and stylishly 😎) crashing the top of that list. Spoiler: it’s not your cousin’s friend who claims to be a wedding content creator now.

It’s wedding audio. Yup, capturing your wedding through sound is officially having its moment, and not in a fleeting TikTok-trend kind of way. We’re talking long-term, memory-preserving, keepsake-level magic.

Welcome to the age of the audio guest book… and welcome to After The Tone.

Why Sound Is the Secret Ingredient Your Wedding Memories Are Missing

Photos freeze the moments. Videos relive the movements. But audio? Audio captures the heartbeat.

It’s one thing to see Grandma smiling on your wedding day… It’s another to hear her cracking a joke, giving heartfelt advice, or lovingly mispronouncing your spouse’s name (some traditions must live on). Your friends' laughter. Your parents’ emotional rants about wanting babies.

These are the moments that bring you right back… not just visually, but viscerally.

That’s why more and more couples are locking in wedding audio right alongside their wedding photography and wedding videography. And honestly? It’s about time.

After The Tone: The New Wedding Staple You Didn’t Know You Needed 

At After The Tone, we’re redefining the modern wedding guest book. Ditch the dusty, pen-to-paper version where guests scribble something like “Congrats! xo” and call it a day.

Instead, imagine your loved ones picking up our authentic rotary phone and leaving you heartfelt, hilarious, and totally unscripted voicemails you’ll cherish for life.

And we don’t just mean “play them once and forget about them” cherish. We mean forever-keepsake, play-them-every-year-on-your-anniversary cherish.

Here’s why couples are falling in love with us:

Premium Sound Quality

We capture every voice, from heartfelt love notes to tipsy stories, in clear, crisp audio. Because your memories deserve better than muffled background noise.

White Glove Customer Service

Top-tier customer support from booking to delivery and even after, with access to help seven days a week.

Easy to Book + Set Up

We ship the phone. You turn it on. Guests pick up the receiver and talk. Honestly, setting up a folding table is harder.

Their Voices, Your Memories

Get your recordings as a seamless digital file, or go full nostalgia with a custom vinyl record or USB. 

When to Book Your Photo, Video, and Audio 

Just like wedding photographers and videographers, audio guest books are now being booked earlier in the planning timeline, especially during peak wedding months.

Pro tip: Lock in your wedding audio experience as soon as you’ve booked your venue, so it’s done and off your endless to-do list.

The Triple Threat of Wedding Memories

If you want to relive your wedding in the most immersive way possible, combine:

✔ Wedding photography for stunning stills
✔ Wedding videography or social content for visual storytelling
✔ Wedding audio for the voices, the emotion, the authenticity

Together, they weave a full sensory memory you’ll want to revisit on anniversaries, with your future kids, and every time you need a happy tear.
