Hello, I am interested in updating my wedding videography site to something that will play videos on mobile devices such as the iPad and iPhone, does anyone have any recommendations for a site that offers templates that will allow this? What are you using to display your videos on mobile devices? Thanks!
Website with video on iOS devices

You could just embed YouTube or Vimeo links, yea? iPhones and iPads, along with most smartphones, can play YouTube/Vimeo videos.

I recently had to do a favour for a friend & do something similar.
If you use Xara Webdesigner (the web package) and embed video as flash format (you can drag/drop into your web layout), the latest version of Xara converts this to HTML5 compatible (ie - it'll play on iOS). Basically, if the video is MP4/H264, it works fine - it's not changing the file, just the wrapper to play on iOS.
You could just use the trail version & see if it works for you (obviously, you get to see all the code).
Otherwise, as mentioned above
- linking/embedding might be simpler (and less pressure on your server).
