National Mining Museum Wedding Film || Loraine & Christopher || Multiversal Matters

This one was special. Not just because Loraine and Chris are an incredible couple, but because Loraine is a wedding photographer we know personally. We’ve shared drinks at the bar, talked shop, and laughed over the madness of weddings. So, yeah, no pressure at all, right? We knew we had to create something different. Something personal. Something genuinely unforgettable.

The Venue: Industrial Magic

When I (Simon) first stepped into Lady Victoria Colliery, I knew we were in for something visually stunning. Once a key part of Scotland’s coal mining heritage, it now stands as a striking wedding venue where industrial charm meets modern romance. Train tracks, old mining carts, layers of dust and rust—it was cinematic before we even hit record. Spaces like this ignite our creativity, and we knew this was going to be a film unlike any other.

One of the standout moments for me was walking into the ceremony room for the first time. Hans Zimmer’s music filled the space, making it feel like stepping onto a film set. That moment set the tone for everything that followed.

A Wedding That Broke the Mould

Loraine and Chris didn’t want a standard wedding film. Chris, being a film lover, had a deep appreciation for cinematic storytelling, and that’s exactly what we leaned into. From the first look to the champagne tower, the day unfolded like a carefully crafted scene, filled with its own rhythm, energy, and raw emotion.
