If you are planning a big, emotional day with all your favourite people, your wedding films should feel like that. The loud speeches, the in jokes from school, your dad’s voice shaking a bit, friends piling onto the dancefloor. You want to watch it back and think, “that is us, that is our lot.”
I am Christopher Oxley. I film weddings for couples who care about their people and their story as much as the party. A weekend with everyone you love in one place is rare. I want you to be able to keep that feeling.
I take inspiration from classic cinema, but what drives me is real emotion. Big speeches, quiet chats in corridors, your parents watching you in the ceremony, friends losing it at midnight. I pay attention to the small gestures and the way you all are with each other when you forget about the camera.
I work with a small number of couples each year, often at country houses and private estates across the UK. My aim is simple: to make a film that feels true to you and your people. Nothing forced. Nothing overdone. Just a careful, honest record of a day you will want to return to.
If that sounds like you, let’s talk.
That is what I am interested in. I listen for the lines in the speeches that only your friends and family would say, the way you look at each other when you think no one is paying attention, the small moments with parents and siblings that will matter even more in years to come.
I will give you a little guidance for a few calm couple shots, then let you get back to the party. You get to be present with your guests, while I quietly gather the moments that hold everything together.
I keep things deliberately small. I take on a limited number of weddings each year, often at country houses and private estates, so I can spend real time on each film. No templates, no recycled edits. Just one wedding, one story, crafted carefully for you and the people you care about.
Every wedding I film is different, but the heart of it is the same: your people in one place, celebrating something that matters. I focus on the big speeches, the small looks across the room and the way the night feels once everyone relaxes, so your wedding film feels like your day and your crowd.
Check AvailabilityHere are some of the weddings I have been trusted to film for couples who value story, sound and genuine moments. They wanted to see parents, siblings and old friends as much as themselves on screen.
If you feel the same, this is a good place to start. Pick a film, press play and imagine your people in their place.
Each wedding film I create is a deeply personal tribute to the couple’s unique story. Here’s what a few of my wonderful clients have to say about their experience and the films we created together:
"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."
A wedding film should feel like your day and your people. Not a template or showreel, but a personal story built from the voices, glances and small moments that say who you are. You bring everyone you love into one place. My job is to honour that.
I am drawn to the quiet bits as much as the big ones. The look you share before you walk in. The nerves and the relief. The daft laughs in speeches, the hand on your shoulder, the pauses when it all sinks in. Those are the moments that last.
I keep things simple. Natural light, real movement, space for you to breathe. No heavy staging, no fake drama. Just your day as it actually felt, crafted with care in the edit so you can come back to it in ten years and still feel it in your chest.
Your wedding films should feel like you and your people. At Signature Wedding Films, every couple is welcomed and celebrated, whatever your gender, sexuality, background or type of celebration. If you care deeply about your family, your friends and the emotion of the day, you are in the right place.
I work with couples who want to feel relaxed, seen and respected. That might be a London city wedding, a weekend at a country house, a tipi on family land or a non-traditional celebration. My role is to fit in, keep things calm and give you the space to be yourselves, while I quietly look after the film.
Your love is your own. My job is to treat it with care and capture it honestly.
I film a limited number of weddings each year so I can give each one proper time in planning, filming and the edit.
My collections are set up for larger, family-centred days and full weekend celebrations, where film is a key part of the budget and the experience.
