Your easy going Manchester wedding videographeR TRAVELLING AROUND THE UK

Hi! It’s so nice to meet you. I’m Paul, a wedding videographer based in Manchester who loves to travel and film weddings at unique and awesome locations all around the UK.

I work with adventurous, unique, easy-going couples who want a wedding that truly reflects their personalities, not just trends or Instagram moments. It may not be the “picture perfect” day, but it’s YOUR day.

My favourite couples value authenticity and choose unique venues. They’ll pour their hearts and souls into their day with person touches, such as … growing their own flowers, doing their own decor or they might even write their own vows (though no pressure!).

If I could take a guess at your hobbies, you’d likely say a love of the outdoors with things such as hiking, you’d love travelling and in the winter things like couples or friends game nights.

I make wedding films with a warm, natural feel thats both effortless and timeless. I have a relaxed, easy-going presence and my discreet approach lets me blend in on your day. I’m like a little filming ninja! My goal is to create story-driven films that show the real emotions and moments of your big day in a way that never goes out of style!

I offer vintage Super 8mm wedding videography for those who appreciate a touch of nostalgia and I’m also LGBTQ+ friendly and you can check out my LGBTQ+ wedding videography page here.

The Experience

From our first conversation, I’m all about making you feel at ease. We’ll have a laid-back 1-1 consultation where we can chat about your day, your vision, and see if we vibe. I’m always available to stay connected through email, WhatsApp, or Zoom, so you’ll never feel like just another client. It’s important to me that the process feels personal and stress-free for you.

To help you along the way, I offer helpful guides and tips, from wedding day timelines to guides for writing personal vows and speeches. I’m here to make sure you feel confident and excited as your day approaches, and we’ll touch base one last time before the big day to finalise all the details.

Before the wedding, I offer an optional Love Story Session. This is a chance for us to meet in person, capture some beautiful moments of you together, and even record a few personal words if you’d like. It’s a fun, relaxed way for us to meet in person and for you to get comfortable in front of the camera before your wedding day.

When the big day arrives, I’ll be there, working quietly in the background. My goal is to capture everything naturally, so you and your guests can be fully in the moment, without feeling like you’re constantly on camera. I’m all about letting the day flow, capturing those real, authentic moments as they happen.

Once the celebration is over, I’ll keep you in the loop about your wedding films. I know you’ll be eager to relive the magic, so I’ll send you a teaser trailer as soon as I can. When everything’s ready, you’ll receive your films through “WedFlix” – think Netflix, but for your wedding! You’ll be able to stream, share, and download your films, so you can enjoy and relive your day whenever you want and with whoever you want.

From start to finish, my goal is to give you a warm, seamless experience that makes your wedding film feel as heartfelt and beautiful as the day itself. Let’s create something unforgettable together!

Is your wedding day really perfect, if you can’t watch it back and enjoy it all over again?

Get a glimpse into how I capture the magic of your wedding day. From the raw emotions to the meaningful moments, these videos show my passion for creating wedding films that tell your unique love story. Whether you want to know why I film, how I film, or who I film for – each video gives you a deeper look into what makes my approach personal and unforgettable.

Manchester’s the Bee’llox

I moved to Manchester when I was but a wee boy! I was born and spent the first part of my childhood down South. My mum’s family were from Manchester though, so we had spent a lot of time up here with Grandparents and Family. So it didn’t take me long to fall in love with the city. 

Manchester has so many different vibes to it. From its Industrial past and converted mills and buildings, places such as the Northern Quarter, Spinningfields, Deansgate, the Gay Village and just across the border in Salford, Media City, Manchester has something for every taste. From big events such as Manchester Pride, Manchester Day and the big Chinese New Year festivals. The famous Manchester Christmas Markets and the Town Hall. Whenever you visit, the place can feel different. Well, apart from the rain that is!

Being a wedding videographer in Manchester means I get to meet some amazing people and work at some awesome venues. From more alternate Manchester venues such as Victoria Baths, FiveFourStudios, GRUB and the Albert Hall to venues within an hour across borders into neighbouring counties, such as Lancashire, Cheshire and the Lakes. All these amazing places are within an hour or two of Manchester.

As a big movie goes, I often visit Manchester myself for a cinema trip. Getting into the centre via the tram and visiting the Printworks or indulging myself with a trip to Everyman and its sofa’d cinema! I’ll often then take in a drink or some food around Ancoats. Take a stroll around some of the places to visit like the Art Gallery or Science Museum. During the summer, it’s great to take a trip out to Heaton Park or down to Salford Quays or Didsbury Village.

Though it’s not something I do as much these days, Manchester also has a fab music scene with some great venues from the Academy, the Arena, Lancashire Cricket Ground to the Etihad. Once a year it also hosts the Parklife festival for all you festival goes at Heaton Park. For the music lovers out there you can also get married at some of the music venues, such as the Albert Hall.

I really do love this city. It’s diversity and quirkiness. There is no other place like it. Being a wedding videographer in Manchester is an absolute dream come true. Whether you’re having that city centre wedding at some quirky offbeat venue, an art gallery or museum wedding or going more for a countryside wedding on the outskirts of town or taking a drive up the motorway to the rural beauty of the north of England, I’ll be there to capture all those amazing, wonderful wedding day moments between you and those you love.

Paul is Incredible!

We recently had Paul to capture our big day, and it was absolutely one of the best decisions we made for the day, he was extremely professional, discreet and our videos are fantastic.

Both ourselves, and our guests have commented on how you were not aware that Paul was there filming, and how comfortable everyone felt and this really was so lovely as everything is so natural.

One of the biggest things for us was the communication throughout, we didn’t feel like another client, we were kept in the loop throughout and Paul checked in or answered any questions we had.

Once we received the videos back, we really are over the moon with them, we cannot fault them and it really is one of the best decisions, choosing Paul to capture our day.
