Louise & Scott: Weddings at Mitton Hall, Lancashire

manchester-wedding-video

July was a pretty mad month for us and sitting right in the middle of all the chaos was Mr & Mrs Connor who invited us to film their BIG DAY at Mitton Hall.

Louise and her bridesmaids set the tone for this wedding, all relaxed and calm in the morning, no stress at all, even when Scott turned up with his Best Man whose suit was 2 or 3 sizes bigger than he ordered, no one panicked at all (in fact, it got a few laughs).
Jonny Draper joined us on photography duties for this lovely Ribble Valley wedding and Liz Hendry provided some great tunes  as we all enjoyed some sun in the garden, piggy backs during the photo shoot is always going to end with at least a dirty knee or elbow.
DFC finished the day off with Pat Mulligan and The Tonics keeping the dance floor rocking all night after a wonderful summer wedding with a great couple, congratulations guys x

A few lovely words from Scott & Louise after receiving their film 🙂

Having a videographer was something we didn’t choose straight away. Wow we are so incredibly happy that we did. You will not be disappointed with Roland and Lisa. We absolutely love our video and adored the sneak peak we received the next day! They really capture the moment of the day and even moments we don’t remember. A pleasure to meet you both and enjoyed having you at our special day. Definitely recommend you both and having a video to remember such a special day. Thank you so much. X

Mags & Floyd: Weddings at Broughton Hall

Mr & Mrs Draper enjoyed an exceptional day in the sun at Broughton Hall in July and here is the proof!

Mags & Floyd first contacted us after seeing one of our earlier films shot at this venue which helped her decide this was the perfect place for her and lucky for us she wanted the same video crew 🙂

2-3 months leading up the wedding we joked that because it was on my birthday the celebration was really for me and not their marriage, Mags being the cheeky bride she is actually challenged me during her speech and i received a birthday cake and son-a-long from Paul Guard and their guests and i also had to deliver a speech, i think i just got away with it!

An early start in the West Yorkshire countryside for Lisa & Myself, we both jumped in between Bride & Groom preparations before a short drive to the church and then all back for a big party in the glorious sunshine. The Draper’s put together a great team for their wedding including Jason Rea Magic, Victor Trusch, Fusion Flower & Yorkshire Bar Company, such a great day with a lovely couple who we had lots of fun with.

Congratulations Mr & Mrs D x

Mitton Hall Weddings: Kelly & Steven

I remember our first meeting with the future Mr & Mrs G, it ended with me removing a very large old and heavy radiator from their home….

Such a wonderful wedding, so much crammed into 1 day. We started early at Mitton Hall with Abigail & Eye Photography & Flower Designs to capture the bridal preparations and all the surprises that Steven had laid out for his bride (and there was plenty). A beautiful July wedding in the Ribble Valley with plenty of music and entertainment thanks to Jade Gallagher, Lionel Vinyl, Touch the Pearl Chris Hurst Magic and of course ‘this lot’ below 🙂

Congratulations Kelly & Steven, thank you for having us on your very special day , Ro & Lisa x

 

 

Browsholme Hall Weddings: Kimberley & Mike

Manchester-wedding-video

Kimberley & Michael celebrated their BIG DAY with all family & friends at Browsholme Hall which is one of our favorite wedding venues deep in the Ribble Valley countryside.

The Bride & Groom enjoyed a perfect day with Ice Cream, Jenga  and one of the longest confetti lines we have seen, David Scholes joined us for the shoot, it’s always great working with David, such a relaxed and fun photographer who we had a blast with on the day. We had a full day of musical talent including Hannah Rose for the ceremony, the Kick Back Sundays  during the drinks reception and finally Hot Biscuit performed the First Dance and provided the evening dance floor entertainment.

Our friends at Creative Cover Hire & Brides Little Helper  12 Event Catering  provide the room decor and delicious food for all the guests.

Such a lovely wedding to film, Congratulations Mr & Mrs Downes x

Inn at Whitewell Weddings: Rebecca & Tom

Rebecca & Tom’s wedding ceremony has to be one of the best services we have filmed in a long time. Largely thanks to the Priest at All Saints Church in Hesketh Bank, an extremely welcoming man who was an absolute pleasure to work with. Ward (Father of the Bride) personally thanked him in front of the guests just before the happy couple walked down the aisle together.

The day started with ‘That Fine Rain’ as me and Lisa started filming the Bridal Prep’s at Rebecca’s parents home which was just round the corner from the church. Jason from Flower Design spent time with the bridesmaids explaining how to hold the bouquets correctly, I think it has something to do with fertility from what he was saying, it went way over my head but sounded very interesting to the girls. Ward showed us the tandem he had made as a gift to his daughter and future son in law which I quickly had to run out and film before he cycled it to the church. Thanks to the extremely talented Lottie Designs for the photograph 🙂

Tom broke the ice as you will have seen in the clip with a very eager ‘I Will’. As soon as he said it I knew I had the start of their film!

The Inn at Whitewell hosted the reception, with Howard Wing entertaining guests throughout the wedding breakfast and into the evening reception which ended for us with the new Mr & Mrs Harrison being drowned by confetti on the  dance floor.

A fabulous wedding, never dampened by the drizzle. Congratulations to you both, Ro & Lisa x

We have now watched the video and it’s fabulous. We love it & we are so so happy we have it for the memory box!! I think it might be on repeat for quite sometime though initially!!!

Thanks once again for your help. Can’t believe it was a month ago tomorrow!!

Take care

Tom & Rebecca xx

Great Hall at Mains Wedding: Hanna & Adam

The Groomsmen were pulling pints behind the bar as we started filming in the centre of Poulton on  a crisp Saturday in April, Jane & Jason from Flower Design fitted the buttonhole flowers to the boys whilst the guests arrived at St Chads Church. The soundtrack to their Big Day really set the tone thanks to Poulton Peoples Choir, we had dancing and clapping bridesmaids all through the service. Hanna arrived with her father and was greeted almost like royalty by the Poulton shoppers who wanted to grab a quick picture of  the Bride before she tied the knot.

A quick bus trip to The Great Hall after the ceremony and we were welcomed by one of favourite singers Paul Guard who entertained everyone through the drinks reception, breakfast and he even performed the first dance!

It was great to work alongside Katie & James from Fairclough Photography,  The Keytars Wedding Band on such an amazing wedding, Mr & Mrs Jarvis picked a perfect team for their wedding and it made it so easy for us film, one of our best memories is just how much Hanna & Adam smiled all day, it was an absolute pleasure to film this beautiful day, congratulations Mr & Mrs J x

Here is a quick message Hanna sent us after watching her full film…
Our video has arrived and we LOVE it!! We can’t wait for all our family to see it too as you have done the most incredible job of capturing the atmosphere and detail of the day!
