Winter Wedding at The Cow Shed Crail | Ciara & Nicholas

Some weddings feel straight out of a storybook, and Ciara & Nicholas' winter wedding at The Cow Shed Crail was just that—an unforgettable day wrapped in love, warmth, and cinematic beauty. With an A-list guest list (names we can’t mention!), breathtaking morning light, and a brand-new 35mm 1.4 lens in play, this was a wedding to remember.

A Coastal Love Story

The East Neuk of Fife wasn’t just a stunning location—it was home. Nick grew up exploring this rugged coastline, and over the years, he and Ciara built memories that made The Cow Shed Crail the perfect place to say, "I do." With its rustic charm and sweeping sea views, it was the ultimate setting for a wedding that felt effortless yet deeply personal.

REDEFINING WEDDING FILMS BEYOND CLICHÉ

Breaking the Mould

When you think of a wedding film, what comes to mind?

At Cinemate Film, we don’t just make wedding films; we create cinematic experiences that tell the full story of your day, set against the stunning backdrop of Scotland.
