Set in the St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel in the centre of London, Leah and Elliot’s wedding was visually unparalleled. From the grand venue (dressed to impress by White Paper Events), to Leah’s incredible dress (with pockets, might I add – I’ve heard that’s a big deal, ladies), this really was a filmmaker’s dream to shoot, made infinitely better by Leah and Elliot’s relationship. When we took them for their couple shoot, it was clear that they just couldn’t get enough of each other, and I think that sentiment was echoed by their friends’ and family’s words during their speeches. Emotional words were also spoken by Elliot as he seemed genuinely awestruck by Leah in her dress, and made some promises to her for their future.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel like for wedding videography?
St. Pancras is one of London’s most visually spectacular wedding venues. The Gothic Victorian architecture, the grand staircase, and the ornate ballroom create a backdrop that requires very little augmentation — the venue itself is the production design. The challenge is capturing it with restraint, so that the couple remains the focus rather than the setting.
How do you film a Jewish wedding sensitively and discreetly?
Jewish wedding ceremonies have specific moments — the chuppah, the circling, the breaking of the glass — that require careful positioning and an understanding of the ritual’s flow. I always research the traditions involved before a wedding so I’m prepared and unobtrusive. The emotional depth of a Jewish ceremony makes it particularly rewarding to film.
Do you work with wedding planners at luxury London hotel weddings?
Yes, and collaboration with a planner is genuinely valuable. At a venue like St. Pancras, where logistics are complex and multiple suppliers are coordinating simultaneously, clear communication with the planning team ensures I can be in the right place at the right moment without disrupting the day.
