Today we’re pulling back the curtain on a landmark moment for wedding filmmaking the British Wedding Film Festival.

Founded by Jeff Wood, Joce Boissin and Pete and Laura Lawson, the British Wedding Film Festival is the first awards platform in the UK dedicated solely to wedding filmmaking, it has been created to celebrate the artistry, creativity, and passion of filmmakers from the UK and around the world.

Though called a festival, at its core, it’s an awards platform - culminating in an Oscars inspired presentation evening - designed to champion the craft and push the boundaries of what wedding films can be.

In this episode, Joce joins me for an in-depth look behind the scenes: the vision, the categories, the judging process, and exactly what it takes to stand out.

It’s rare to find a wedding filmmaker who’s doing something truly different - but that’s exactly what Alex from Mole Hill Media is achieving. He describes his style as “marmite,” drawing inspiration from romcom teasers and reality TV rather than traditional wedding filmmaking.

In this conversation, we dive into his unique approach: how he discreetly mics up couples for the entire day using hidden lavs, why spontaneous guest interviews add a new layer of depth to a couple’s story, and the process of shaping over 1TB of footage and audio into Netflix-style documentary films.
