We love filming at Whatton House Tipis because the setting genuinely does half the work for us.

Getting to Whatton House Tipis
Whatton House Tipis sits near Loughborough, with the closest train station being Loughborough itself, around 4 miles away. East Midlands Parkway is also handy if you're coming from further afield, and connects well to Nottingham and Leicester. East Midlands Airport is your nearest option, roughly 8 miles from the venue, making it straightforward for guests travelling from further away. There is parking available on site, so driving is a perfectly easy option for those not drinking. For the evening, book your taxi in advance. Local firms from Loughborough or Kegworth fill up fast on weekends. Apps like Uber have limited coverage here, so a local number saved in your phone is a smart move.

What is it like getting married at Whatton House Tipis?
Whatton House Tipis has a wonderfully relaxed, outdoor atmosphere that makes for a really natural and joyful day to photograph and film. The tipi structures create beautiful warm light inside, and the grounds give plenty of space for couples to move around and enjoy candid moments. It is the kind of venue where the day flows at its own pace, which we love as it gives us so many opportunities to capture genuine emotion rather than posed moments.

What are the lighting conditions like for photography and film inside the tipis?
The tipis at Whatton House create a lovely, intimate atmosphere but the light inside can be lower than a traditional venue, so experience with this kind of setting really matters. We have shot at Whatton House Tipis before and know how to work with the available light to make sure your photos and film look warm and true to how the day actually felt. If you have any concerns about this, we are always happy to chat it through before you book.
