A civil wedding, as most think of it, often takes place at a courthouse, but it can be held anywhere, as long as it's not a house of worship. If you and your partner would like a creative or non-traditional ceremony, a civil ceremony is the perfect style of wedding for you.

A civil wedding allows you complete freedom to write your own vows or include your own traditions without any restrictions.

Need vendors for your Civil wedding? These pros specialize in this style.

A civil wedding is very straight-forward. While many people may think this style of wedding is limited to a courthouse ceremony, in fact, it's simply any nonreligious legal ceremony with a legal official acting as officiant, as opposed to a religious one.

Civil weddings have no religious affiliation and a government or civil official must preside over their ceremony, as opposed to a religious figure. This style of wedding is not only for those who aren't religious but could be perfect for couples who come from two very different faiths or for those who do not want to be bound by any religious restrictions. In the case of the latter, couples can then have a more traditional ceremony later. 

These wedding videos will give you the inspiration for all your civil wedding, plus the vendors and brands who can make them happen.

Hello, I’m Luke & I am a cinematic wedding videographer based in Kent & I travel all over the UK filming beautiful wedding days. I believe that your wedding is the biggest day of your life & it deserves the very best wedding film to capture all of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. 

To me, the story is paramount. My wedding films are far more than just documenting your special day, but a way of experiencing it over & over again. My films capture the energy, the emotions, the atmosphere- I don’t want you to just watch your wedding film. I believe your wedding film should make you feel everything you felt on the big day. It should bring back the happiness, the smiles, the tears & the joy.

I believe in sharing in your emotions on your wedding day. By getting to know you, by being a friend to you & helping you throughout you wedding journey, I can understand who you are as a couple & I can use my expertise as a wedding videographer to tell your story. 

It’s important to me that we are the right fit for each other- we’ll be spending a lot of time together on the biggest day of your life. I only take on a certain number of weddings per year & I really do value the relationships I have with the couples who book with me. To me, quality is far more important than quantity. 

Thats my belief & that’s how I make my wedding films. If that sounds like something that you would like the be a part of & experience, then let me show you a little bit more about what I can do.

Videographer

Philip London Films -  Wedding Videographer Of The Year Winner - The UK Wedding Awards. 5 x Winner Wedding Videographer Of The Year - The Wedding Industry Awards - East England. Global Winner - International Wedding Awards.  I am a UK London based destination wedding filmmaker available to film your special day in my style. I believe that lighting and composition and subtle camera movements are much more applicable to a wedding film than the super fast paced music video style films that seem to be becoming popular. The choice is yours and I appreciate people have different styles and tastes. On the day I aim to be unobtrusive when it matters, but at the same time like the photographer, I think that 20 mins of direction can guaranteed that you get the great shots you expend and have paid for. A few minutes with a true professional can give you moments that happen very rarely. I ask that everyone doing a reading or speech wears a tiny small hidden microphone as the audio is at least 50% of the film. I do also have white ones for a bride to wear, and this all depends on you as couple how important the video is to you on the day. The groom mic will pick you up, but often the bride can sound a little quiet.Many hours of editing goes into the films, and it is worth considering this when you look at wedding videographers who offer very fast delivery. There are guys out there who offer delivery within days, and all this means is they have done less work on the film, cut corners and delivered a sub standard product.. anyone could drop the raw footage onto a time line with some music and deliver that within a day... pick a videographer who spends the most hours on the edit.

Philip London Films

Films for the enamoured and adventurous.There’s a passion for those intimate moments that runs through our veins, a passion bound to our heritage.Just as generations evolve within the family circle, so too should our visual legacies. Our movies capture that key connection; that authentic spark.We’re making memories.

Cinemate Films

Hey I’m Sally and I create timeless films packed full of emotion to document your wedding in the most natural way. I take time to get to know my couples during the build-up to their wedding so that on the day we greet each other like friends. I capture real un-forced emotion by blending into the background to film people unaware. I want you to be relaxed and enjoy the day safe in the knowledge that I will be there documenting the key moments, fun times with your besties and all the bits in between so that you do not miss a thing. I love my ‘job’, filming weddings really is the BEST and even after shooting over 100 weddings, I still get teary-eyed during the speeches, I still get excited when I see the bride for the first time and I still wish I could get on the floor at the end of the first dance (If only I wasn’t too busy filming it!)
