March gave Aimee and Nicholas a calm spring setting at Cooling Castle Barn, with the day centred in one place and a steady flow into the afternoon ceremony. It had a relaxed, gathered-in feel, with prep, vows, dinner, speeches and the evening celebrations all happening around the barn.
Morning
Aimee spent the morning getting ready at Cooling Castle Barn, so there was no rush between locations before the ceremony. With preparations beginning early, the barn gradually shifted from a quiet morning space into the setting for the celebration ahead.
Ceremony
The ceremony took place at Cooling Castle Barn at 2pm, with Nicholas arriving ahead of the guests and Aimee already on site from the morning preparations. Keeping everything at the venue gave the film a clear sense of place, moving naturally from the final preparations into the vows.
Speeches and Wedding Breakfast
The wedding breakfast began at 4:30pm, giving everyone time to settle into the reception after the ceremony. Speeches followed the meal, with Aimee’s father, Nicholas, the best man and Nicholas’s mother all part of that part of the evening.
Evening
After the speeches, Aimee and Nicholas cut the cake before the evening moved towards the dance floor. Their first dance took place at around 8pm, which brought the 7-hour film coverage to a natural close after the key moments of the day had been captured.
