Does the spa at The Pines Hotel create any good opportunities for wedding morning coverage?

A venue with spa facilities can be a lovely backdrop for wedding morning coverage, particularly for couples or bridal parties who choose to begin their day there. Calm, light-filled spaces lend themselves well to natural, relaxed getting-ready footage and portraits. If you are planning to make use of the spa on your wedding morning, it is worth mentioning that to us early so we can plan the schedule and make the most of those quieter moments before the ceremony.

What should we think about when planning photography and videography at a countryside hotel like The Pines?

Countryside hotel venues tend to offer a good flow of spaces throughout the day, so one of the most useful things is to think about timing and how the light moves around the grounds at different points. We always carry out our own planning ahead of a wedding day and are happy to visit or research a venue in advance. Sharing your schedule with us as early as possible means we can make sure no key moment is missed, from the ceremony through to the evening reception.
