Inn at Whitewell Weddings: Rebecca & Tom

on By

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

Emily & Aaron: Weddings at The Windmill, Whiteley Green

on By 1 Comment

A country pub location, a beautiful Bride and handsome Groom, lawn games, loud guests and Pugs, this is what a summer wedding is all about!

We arrived early at Norcliffe Chapel in Styal on a very hot Saturday in June ready for the marriage of Emily & Aaron. The Groom and guests enjoyed drinks before the ceremony at The Ship.

The Church setting was perfect as Emily arrived with her Bridesmaids and we enjoyed a very relaxed and humorous ceremony thanks to a great vicar and readings from the bridal party.

After a short drive from the church we arrived at The Windmill Pub which proved to be the perfect reception venue with a real rustic and country charm complete with its own little maze which Chris Morse used for the group shot. The lawn games were very entertaining in the blazing sun, every few minutes you either heard screams from the Jenga Tower falling or shouts of victory as  the hoop competition heated up.

Blank Cheque provided the evening entertainment and as the sun started to fall we managed to capture the Throwing of the Bouquet which perfectly ended this amazing day that we both thoroughly enjoyed being a part of

Congratulations Mr & Mr Wood x

Mitton Hall Weddings: Sophie & Luke

on By

Sophie & Luke were so lucky with the weather on their special day in May, brilliant sunshine all morning for the ceremony in Darwen and just as we had thrown the confetti, the thunder cracked, the heavens opened and we had a down pour of hail and rain up until we arrived at Mitton Hall, perfect timing for the sun to show it’s face again for the rest of the day.

Joining us on ‘Image Capturing Duty’ was David Stubbs whilst Sam Fitton entertained the guests during the early drinks reception. Red Floral Architecture, Creative Cover Hire & Pink Frosting added their special touches to the stunning decor, the room looked absolutely beautiful for the Bride & Groom.

One of our favourite scenes (amongst many) was Nana on the dancefloor once DFC invited everyone to join Mr & Mrs Heath after the first dance (she’s in her 90’s and dancing to rap music).

We managed to send this teaser over to the happy couple on their honeymoon so they could enjoy it in the sun, here is their first response…

Hi Roland,
Oh wow! What a fabulous surprise, we absolutely love it thanks so so much!
And thanks once again for everything on the day 🙂
Thank you to Sophie, Luke, all their friends and family for having us and making us feel so welcome on the day, congratulations from Ro & Lisa x

Great Hall at Maines Wedding Videography: Sam & Karl

on By

The Bridesmaids set the tone as we started filming at The Great Hall for Mr & Mrs Ashcroft’s BIG DAY, it was so funny to watch them practice their walk down the aisle whilst Make-Up Artist Sonara Parker worked her magic in the kitchen. The Groom arrived with his 2 best men looking very sharp and ready for an awesome day with family and friends.

The Great Hall looked stunning with help of Creative Cover Hire which made it very easy for us and their wedding photographer Bobtale Photography to capture such gorgeous images. (lovely working with you Robyn)

This is an example from our Cinematic Short package which has become very popular this year for couples who want a more stylized film which they can share online

We feel so lucky to be part of so many wonderful days such as Sam & Karl’s wedding, capturing their day and telling the story of how they spent an amazing day with all the people they love is an honor.  The first dance just exploded once those confetti cannons fired and as we left the evening reception we knew this was going to open their wedding video.

Thanks for inviting us Mr & Mrs Ashcroft x

 

Armathwaite Hall Wedding Videography: Gillian & Michael

on By

A perfect day for a wedding deep in the Cumbria countryside is what we hoped for and this one did not disappoint.

Gillian & Michael’s Lake District celebration at the stunning Armathwaite Hall Hotel was such a joy to film, the sunny lakeside setting gave us a chance to capture many beautiful and natural scenes. The Groom was walking around the hotel very early in the morning greeting his guests and soaking up the wonderful atmosphere around Bassenthwaite Lake. Michael only just kept it together as his Bride walked down the aisle but a cheeky slap on the bum from his Bestman & brother took his mind of any tears for just long enough. The drinks reception had a lovely, relaxed vibe with the classical musicians playing whilst guests enjoyed Ice-Cream,Champagne & Sun Sun Sun.

Mike & Gillians children stole most of the day with a great rendition of ‘He never leaves the seat up’ and a great opening speech which you can see in the video below.

The children also joined them for their first dance and then the night kicked off with a Ceili Band & BBQ on the terrace as the sun set on this Glorious British Wedding.
Congratulations Mr & Mrs Peacock x

Lancashire Wedding Videography

Just a lovely wedding 🙂

Youtube Version

I knew this was gonna be a great wedding to shoot, brides of weddings past and future in the same room, family members, talented wedding friends all came together for Mr & Mrs Awdes BIG DAY 🙂
So where do we begin…
It was a bright January morning at Mitton Hall, i spotted Lottie Designs shooting away, Finch Bakery delivering the cake and the groomsmen having a couple of early drinks to calm their nerves. Dax on Sax (with Sam Shepherd on DJ duties) entertained the guests before the Wedding Breakfast and then it was time for the speeches with a very entertaining song from Best Man Dan (thanks for the tracks http://www.danphillipson.com/ ). Sam Fitton joined for the evening reception and even managed to set the fire alarm off with his finale for Carly & Phil (Very Funny). Andy Murphy kept the Dancefloor filled until the small hours with some help from Mr Worm & The Phantom Splits (we’re shooting his wedding this year, can’t wait for that)
An Awesome Wedding With Awesome People
Congratulations Mr & Mrs Awde
