Some weddings feel like a reflection of the couple at their core. Mimi and Callum’s countryside celebration at Cripps Barn was exactly that. Every detail reflected their personalities. From their laughter-filled ceremony to the glowing evening party, the day radiated warmth and authenticity. As their wedding videographer, I loved capturing every smile, glance, and candid moment that made their story so special.
A Cripps Barn Love Story with Festival Roots
Mimi and Callum first met in the summer of 2012 after finishing their GCSEs. Their story began at Reading Festival, surrounded by friends, music, and late-night laughter. Their first date was a trip to the cinema to watch a horror film. From that day, their bond grew stronger with every shared adventure.
In May 2024, Callum proposed at Lovers Point in Monterey. The sea breeze and sunshine made it a perfect moment. The proposal was intimate, heartfelt, and true to who they are.
A Dreamy Day at Cripps Barn
Their September wedding at Cripps Barn in Cirencester captured everything they love about the countryside. The day was relaxed, joyful, and full of love. Mimi got ready at The Old Tractor Shed in Cheltenham, while Callum prepared at Narracott House in Ampney Crucis. The excitement built as the ceremony drew closer.
Special Highlights from the Day:
- The ceremony inside Cripps Barn glowed under candlelight with rustic beams and soft floral touches.
- Mimi looked stunning in her Allure Bridal gown from Laura May Bridal as her father, Simon, proudly walked her down the aisle.
- The heartfelt speeches by Simon, Tesni, Dari, and Callum brought both laughter and tears.
- The colour palette of blues and greens added a calm seaside touch to the rustic décor.
- Violinist Ruth Potts filled the air with elegant, romantic music throughout the day.
- The evening came alive with The Wedding Players as guests danced and celebrated with joy.
Every smile and laugh captured in their film felt genuine and filled with love.

A Rustic Barn Wedding Full of Heart
Their theme was romantic and natural, blending seaside tones with rustic warmth. The bridesmaids wore soft shades of blue and green. Each colour reflected the couple’s love for the coast. Florist Caroline Kohut of Freckle Flowers brought their vision to life beautifully. Her arrangements of greenery and delicate blooms perfectly complemented the venue’s natural textures.
Every detail felt personal and meaningful. The relaxed atmosphere and laughter-filled moments made their rustic barn wedding truly unforgettable.

When asked which moments they would relive in ten years, both chose the same. Laughing together during the ceremony, walking down the aisle, and dancing with friends. Those memories reflected everything they valued most.
