The Coppermines & Lakes Cottages, tucked away in the Lake District's rugged landscapes, offers a truly unique and stunning setting for weddings. As a wedding videographer, filming at The Coppermines is always an exceptional experience due to its dramatic and beautiful natural surroundings, combined with the quaint charm of the venue itself.
Nestled beneath the towering Old Man of Coniston, The Coppermines provides a setting that feels both intimate and epic. This venue began as a 17th-century copper mining complex and has been thoughtfully transformed into a collection of beautiful cottages that can accommodate both the wedding party and guests. The blend of rustic heritage with modern comforts gives it a distinctive character that's rich in history and ambiance.
One of the most striking features of The Coppermines is its mountain valley location. The dramatic backdrop of the Lakeland fells offers incredible opportunities for breathtaking wedding footage. Capturing a ceremony set against the raw beauty of these craggy hills and open skies can make for some truly cinematic moments. Whether it's the mist rolling over the hills or the golden light of sunset reflecting on the peaks, the setting invariably adds a powerful, emotive quality to the film.
The venue's main reception area, The Coppermines Mountain Cottages, is perfect for more intimate gatherings. Its layout encourages a cozy, family-oriented atmosphere, ideal for capturing the heartfelt connections and joyful celebrations of the day. The natural wood and stone of the buildings, along with their traditional Lakeland slate roofs, contribute to the enchanting, timeless feel of the venue.
Outdoors, the adjacent fields and woodlands provide endless possibilities for romantic couple shots and group photos. The presence of natural water features, including a nearby stream, enhances the idyllic and serene setting, making every angle worth capturing.
Filming at The Coppermines & Lakes Cottages offers not just a day's work but an adventure into the heart of the Lake District. It's a venue where each wedding feels like an exclusive retreat, infused with the spirit of the wilderness and the intimacy of a gathering among close friends and family. For any wedding filmmaker, The Coppermines not only challenges your creativity but also rewards you with the chance to capture a wedding story set in one of the UK's most spectacular landscapes.
"We don’t even know where to start! Hiring Chris to shoot our wedding video was the BEST decision we made for our wedding. From the first meeting we had to discuss his style and approach, we knew we were on to the right person. Chris’ attention to detail is parallel to none."
"We weren’t originally going to get a videographer but it was worth every penny. The whole day is so much to process that you forget bits after. Having this video to treasure forever was the perfect way to cure the wedding blues."
"Before meeting Chris, we weren’t sure how to appear on film. After working with him, we felt completely comfortable, and he captured every organic moment we wanted."
