LUHAR /TORRES: Weddings at Thornton Manor, Cheshire

MASSIVE WEDDING VIBES…

Why did you choose Thornton Manor for your BIG DAY?

We chose Thornton Manor because it gave us the best of both worlds with two venues. Julio really wanted an outdoors in the woods wedding and I really wanted the history and grandeur of the house. When we first drove up to the house, I knew is was the venue I had always dreamed of.

What made you choose RTP Films to capture your wedding?

Having someone capture the best day of our lives was really important. It was such a busy day (as I’m sure you remember) that I knew I wouldn’t be able to memories everything. We met with a lot of videographers and it was really important to have a good connection as it is such a personal and special day. We wanted that emotion to be captured. As soon as my dad, mum and I met you, we knew you were the right guys for the job!

What were your favorite parts of the wedding?

The best part of my day was the first dance. It was the first time in the day everything began to sink it. Julio and I have had a rocky road getting to this place and the song ‘At Last’ summed everything up. We finally had each other after everything we had been through. 5 years of long distance was not easy!

How did Julio propose?

4. Julio knew that the most important part of my life is my incredible family. He came from New York to the UK to spend Christmas with my family for the first time. On Christmas Eve, we travelled back to Preston from London (where I work) and when we got home there was the biggest bunch of flowers. Julio, got down on one knee and had a whole speech prepared and I didn’t hear any of it because I just couldn’t stop crying! Straight after we had saw all the family and the weeklong of celebrations began.

Congratulations Chandni & Julio, thanks for making us feel so very welcome x

So much sun for a wedding in February…

We love it!!!! Can’t thank you enough!!!

(Ashley)

What made you choose Sandhole Oak Barn for your Wedding?

After having a look at (what feels like all) wedding venues online, I (Ashley) had arranged to see several we liked one weekend, I was back up North (as we were living in London at the time). The plan was to have a casual look – Adam wasn’t even there. Sandhole Oak was the first venue I visited and I called Adam to say we didn’t need to see any others.

Hi Roland just a quick thank you for the video you have just sent us of Ashley & Adams Wedding. In the words of my proud daughter who has just watched it. “ He has nailed it” you have absolutely captured all the emotion and love of the day!!

I just want to thank you to you and your wife for such an excellent job. I will be recommending you to everyone and our paths will meet again I am sure. 

Thanks from one Proud Dad. 

(Lee – A Very Proud Father of the Bride)

How did Adam propose?

I came home from work on a random Friday night to Adam, a French Bulldog puppy named Bruce and a ring.

What were your favourite memories from the Big Day?

Ashley – Getting ready with the girls – Seeing my dad for the first time before him walking me down the aisle – Seeing Adam for the first time

Adam – Morning beers – Watching Ashley walk down the aisle – Ant’s heckle during the best man speech

What experience did you want to give your guests?

A relaxed and fun day filled with happy memories.

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Pritchard, our first wedding of 2018 and what a way to kick off 🙂

 “It’s flawless, loved re living the day some of your best material

yet, wouldn’t change anything your sir have done us proud thank you” 

Matt

Why did you choose The Shireburne Arms & St Peters Church?

We picked the Shireburn because we loved the laid back vibe of it, the location within the ribble valley with the views & we thought it suited our theme of a rustic winter wonderland perfectly. We also fell in love with Sarah & the staff at the Shireburn who were super helpful & made the whole process really easy. The food is also amazing there too.

St. Peter’s was the closest Catholic Church to the Shireburn & was the most beautiful church we had seen. The drive up to Stonyhurst is so beautiful and Matt had worked their at the beginning of his career too & he had loved it so we thought it would be perfect. We thought the pictures would be lovely too.

What made you want to have a wedding video?

We definitely wanted a wedding video to capture every moment of the day. It goes so fast & there’s so much going on that we didn’t want to miss a second. We also wanted to be able to look back on it & watch the day over & over again.

Do you have a favourite memory form the whole wedding experience?

The whole day was just amazing. Favourite memories are walking into the church & seeing everyone & seeing Matts face. The speeches which were fab. Just having everyone around us there to celebrate with us. We loved every second of it. Seeing the room for me was also a highlight because it was perfect, exactly how I imagined it would look & more. It was the perfect setting for the perfect day.

What kind of day did you want to give your guests?

We wanted guests to feel comfortable, relaxed & chilled. We didn’t want anyone to feel like they were on their best behavior. We just wanted it to be really relaxed & for everyone to have the best time with lots of food, drink & dancing 🕺

Chrissie & Ben: Weddings at Heaton House Farm

manchester-wedding-video

“Absolute masterpiece mate! Loved it so much and can’t wait to share” – Ben Langstreth (Groomy)

Why did you choose Heaton House Farm as your wedding venue?

The moment we walked into Heaton House we fell in love. The set up, the aspect, the whole family feel gave it a pull over anything we had seen… and we saw a fair few. The views speak for themselves, incredible and the added bonus of having our nearest and dearest able to stay on site to debrief over a classic English breakfast the next morning. We knew from deal with the Heaton House Farm team they would be a well oiled machine… and they delivered.

Why did you pick us to create your wedding film?
From one short conversation at a Heaton House Farm event where you discussed your own proposal we loved your character and enthusiasm. We knew instantly you would bring this to the video and be able to bring our special day back to life in the best manner. The interviews of course were just a genius bonus!

Tell us about the proposal?
It was a standard Friday (as far as Chrissie was concerned) and as per usual Chrissie was late leaving work. I had planned the day all out, having the ring delivered by Amy and having our new sofas delivered as a surprise. I did not account for Chrissie being one and half hours late Coming  home. Having paced the floor for all this time and not eating anything, she eventually arrived home and kept me waiting even longer while she finished her phone call. She did however notice something odd. I was in my best shirt! And there were the logos Of my parents dancing school where she trained growing up and at the swimming club where we swam together.
She came to the door and the tears instantly began (both of us)
The boodles pink ribbon created a time line of our time together from the menu of our first date, to pictures all up the walls of days out, to the match day ticket of when I asked her dad. This took us to the bedroom where some of her favourite things were placed, then I stopped to one knee and could only get out the words “well will you”. She did say yes and I re enacted since.
The sofa was no longer an important part of the surprise but was a great place to chat about the build up.

What experience do you want to give to your guests?

A relaxed environment where they could enjoy the venue and each other’s company so we could see smiling faces.

Rosie & Richard: Weddings at Thornton Manor

After 1 meeting in a coffee shop in Bolton, we knew right then that this wedding was gonna be a whole lot of fun!

We had a very early start jumping between Thornton Manor & Thornton Hall with Andy Keher during the Bridal & Groom preparations, Qube Events put their final touches to the ceremony area whilst Piano Daisy had a little practice with one of Rosie’s Bridesmaids.

Sunshine & Planes filled the sky after the ceremony and after an extremely competitive ‘Throwing of the Bouquet’ everyone headed inside for a mad party thanks to the guys at Six15 Events.

Such a great way to end the summer, thanks for inviting us Mr & Mrs C x
