  - I'd suggest seeing if the church has an internet connection and maybe even a wired connection you could hook a laptop to - oblique Aug 24, 06:59 13
    - yeah, we are getting married in a garden behind a brewery. :) -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:00 12
      - Any chance the brewery has Internet you could use? I'd really suggest a laptop with webcam (they're not that expensive if you don't have one) - oblique Aug 24, 07:04 7
        
        and if there is no internet you could always get a wifi card from one of the cell companies -- nm - decline Aug 24, 07:07 2
        
        heck, with the return policies on some of the carriers you could probably even buy it, use it, then take it back -- nm - oblique Aug 24, 07:09 1
        
        well, we have different carriers then you, but it might be being done from an american phone, so that could work. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:10
        
        i think a power source might be a problem, but i'll check. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:06 3
        
        also, consider that if you're interested in her hearing the event, you're going to need something to pick up your voices in some way. Are you using - oblique Aug 24, 07:08 2
        
        no, we aren't and we can't. no amplification allowed. - Andie Aug 24, 07:09 1
        
        of course. If you were only concerned about sound for your relative, you could very well also have your man wearing a lapel mic (very inconspicous on - oblique Aug 24, 07:13

        nope! - Andie Aug 24, 07:04 2

        i'll be there Wednesday, will do! -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:12
  - You'll probably need wifi to do video. - spamlet Aug 24, 06:56 6
    - unless you have an unlimited data plan, 3g could get really expensive -- nm - decline Aug 24, 07:02
    - ah, can't do it at work, but wifi will work there, thanks so much for the help! -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 06:58 4
      - definitely do a test run a week or so before just to make sure -- nm - Beaker Aug 24, 07:00 2
        
        thanks everyone. this is great. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:02 1
        
        heck, if the place has wifi you can use any phone/tablet/laptop to stream the video to her with skype -- nm - decline Aug 24, 07:03
      - Not a problem. Hope you can get it working!' -- nm - spamlet Aug 24, 07:00
