Hi!!!
As you know, Dan and I are getting married rather soon and we can’t wait to see you there!!
What you probably don’t know is, we have invited the team from Music Wedding Videos to shoot everyone enjoying the day, singing, dancing and generally having a great time to the song ‘Give Me Everything’ by Pitbull.
Here is the song we’ve chosen for you to get familiar with, it is before the time of Music Videos but you’ll get the idea…
How this works is, the guys will be equipped with lyrics and speakers on the day, and they’ll be looking for volunteers to mime along to a couple of lines from the song on camera, which they’ll then turn into a music video of the wedding day. Don’t worry too much about learning the lyrics as they will have some printed on the day and after playing a short section of the song a couple of times you’ll soon pick it up.
You’ll have a few go’s at getting it right, and they’re pretty good at editing to make you look awesome. Your singing voice doesn’t matter either because they’re not going to use the audio – the real song will be played over the video footage of you singing along.
If you’re really up for it, feel free to learn a line or two from the song (or even the whole thing)…
The lyrics are included on that version so that if you want to you can rehearse and remember them to perfection! Alternatively there is a link to the lyrics here too – Pitbull – Give Me Everything Lyrics
(The lyrics are also shown at the bottom of this page…)
How up for it are you?
Mad for it!
OK, so you fancy yourself as a bit of a performer or a pop-star in another life?
Here’s what you can do:
- Watch the video
- Learn the lyrics
- Practice in front of the mirror
- Choreograph a dance routine
- Get together with some like-minded guests to do something as a group
We are looking for people to (willingly) come forward beforehand to be given specific lines to learn, and we will then forward everyone their own lyrics to perfect 🙂 If any of you do want to perform something special, please let us know or contact the MWV guys at info@musicweddingvideos.com so they can plan it into the shoot.
Happy to get involved on the day
Here’s what we recommend:
- Watch the video
- Try to learn at least one or two lines from the song
- Grab the MWV guys on the day and let them know you want to get involved
A little bit camera-shy
We realise some people either don’t feel super comfortable in front of cameras, especially video cameras. Don’t worry – the MWV guys are very sensitive to this and won’t force you to get involved if you don’t feel comfortable. But if it’s not too painful, we do hope you can at least give us a smile or a wave so that we can remember you on our special video. And remember – if it’s your singing voice you’re worried about, they don’t actually use that in the final video – you’re just miming along to the real song. Here’s what we recommend:
- Don’t worry too much about learning the lyrics
- On the day, see if you’re in the right mood. If not, just let the MWV guys know if you’d prefer to just be an ‘extra’ without performing, or if you don’t want to be in the video at all.
We think this is a really fun way to record and re-live our big day for years to come and hope you’ll all get involved in some way.
Still not sure how this works?
Here are a couple of examples of a finished video from previous weddings once they have been edited and effects have been put on…
Jen’s Music Wedding Video – Mr Brightside
Dan and Gemma’s Music Wedding Video – Dirty Bit
So……..
- Glamorous couple – Check
- Beautiful Location – Check
- Awesome dancing and singing – that’s where you come in
Let’s make this a wedding video to remember!
Love
Andrea and Dan

PPS Here are those lyrics…
“Give Me Everything – Pitbull “
[Pitbull – Intro]
Me not working hard?
Yeah, right! Picture that with a Kodak
Or, better yet, go to Times Square
Take a picture of me with a Kodak
Took my life from negative to positive
I just want y’all know that
And tonight, let’s enjoy life
Pitbull, Nayer, Ne-Yo
That’s right
[Chorus:]
[Ne-Yo]
Tonight I want all of you tonight
Give me everything tonight
For all we know we might not get tomorrow
Let’s do it tonight
[Nayer]
Don’t care what they say
Or what games they play
Nothing is enough
‘Til I have your love
[Ne-Yo]
Let’s do it tonight
[Nayer]
I want you tonight,
I want you to stay
I want you tonight
[Ne-Yo]
Grab somebody sexy, tell ’em hey
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
[Verse 1: Pitbull]
Take advantage of tonight
Cause tomorrow I’m off to Dubai to perform for a princess
But tonight, I can make you my queen
And make love to you endless
This is insane: the way the name growin’
Money keep flowin’
Hustlers move aside
So, I’m tiptoein’, to keep flowin’
I got it locked up like Lindsay Lohan
Put it on my life, baby,
I make you feel right, baby
Can’t promise tomorrow
But, I promise tonight
Dalé
[Pre-Chorus: Pitbull]
Excuse me (Excuse Me)
And I might drink a little more than I should tonight
And I might take you home with me, if I could tonight
And, baby, Ima make you feel so good, tonight
Cause we might not get tomorrow
[Chorus:]
[Ne-Yo]
Tonight I want all of you tonight
Give me everything tonight
For all we know we might not get tomorrow
Let’s do it tonight
[Nayer]
Don’t care what they say
Or what games they play
Nothing is enough
‘Til I have your love
[Ne-Yo]
Let’s do it tonight
[Nayer]
I want you tonight, I want you to stay
I want you tonight
[Ne-Yo]
Grab somebody sexy, tell ’em hey
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
[Verse 2: Pitbull]
Reach for the stars
And if you don’t grab ’em,
At least you’ll fall on top of the world
Think about it
Cause if you slip,
I’m gon’ fall on top yo girl (hahaa)
What I’m involved with
Is deeper than the masons
Baby, baby, and it ain’t no secret
My family’s from Cuba
But I’m an American Idol
Get money like Seacrest
Put it on my life, baby
I make you feel right, baby
Can’t promise tomorrow
But, I promise tonight
Dalé
[Pre-Chorus: Pitbull]
Excuse me (Excuse Me)
And I might drink a little more than I should tonight
And I might take you home with me if I could tonight
And baby Ima make you feel so good tonight
Cause we might not get tomorrow
[Chorus:]
[Ne-Yo]
Tonight I want all of you tonight
Give me everything tonight
For all we know, we might not get tomorrow
Let’s do it tonight
[Nayer]
Don’t care what they say
Or what games they play
Nothing is enough
‘Til I have your love
[Ne-Yo]
Let’s do it tonight
[Nayer]
I want you tonight, I want you to stay
I want you tonight
[Ne-Yo]
Grab somebody sexy, tell ’em hey
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
Give me everything tonight
[Outro: Pitbull]
Excuse me (Excuse Me)
And I might drink a little more than I should tonight
And I might take you home with me if I could tonight
And baby Ima make you feel so good tonight
Cause we might not get tomorrow
