The Day, as it was.

Surrey Wedding Videographer

One filmmaker. One camera. The full arc of your day, told without interruption. Wedding films at Surrey's country houses and private estates.

Unique Aspects of Surrey Wedding Videography

Bury Court Barn near Bentley is a converted threshing barn on a thirty-acre estate with an outdoor pergola for the ceremony. It is technically in Hampshire, by about a mile, and half its couples are from Surrey. The film from the June 2025 wedding there is on the Hampshire page.

Beyond that, Surrey is the county I drive through most and film in least, and I would like to change that. The Surrey Hills, Guildford and the villages around it, the barns and houses between the A3 and the Sussex border. If you are marrying at one of them, tell me which, and I will be straight about whether I know it.

What I can promise is the same approach wherever the venue is. I arrive early, walk the grounds, read the light, and follow the day. When I see a moment worth a couple of minutes, I suggest it.

The Filmmaker

One person.
The full picture.

I'm Chris Oxley. I film weddings at country houses and private estates across the UK.

I started this because when I got married in 2015, we didn't have a videographer. I wanted to build something I wished had existed for us. Films that hold up years later. A real record of a real day, not a montage of prompted moments.

I handle the consultation, the filming, the edit, the grade, and the delivery. I film a limited number of weddings a year, and I'm personally at every one.

Why have a wedding in Surrey.

Surrey weddings are London weddings that have moved out of town. Guests come down for the day, the venue is a barn or a house with its own grounds, and the ceremony is on site or in a village church a few minutes away. Church then marquee at a family home is common in the Surrey Hills and is one of my favourite shapes of day to film.

The Difference

Your day first.
Your film, a close second.

Many wedding videographers arrive with a shot list. I don't. I arrive early, stay quiet, and pay attention. The film comes from what actually happens. I might offer the occasional quiet prompt when it matters, but I'm not staging moments or running through the same poses as everyone else.

I tend to work with couples based in and around London who want something honest. A real record of a real day. Not a highlight reel built from the same five moments as everyone else's.

I film fifteen weddings a year. That number lets me edit every film personally, respond to every email myself, and still show up fully present on your day. Every frame graded and cut by me. No outsourced editing. No house style.

The Best Decision for our Wedding

"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."

Worth Every Penny

"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."

We Felt Completely Comfortable

"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."

Surrey wedding planning tips.

If the reception is a marquee at home, have the marquee company and the caterer talk to each other before either talks to you. The film shows what happens when they have not.

Trains from Waterloo reach most of Surrey in under an hour. Put the station on the invitation.

Surrey Hills venues are on slopes and lanes. Ask about parking and shuttle buses before you decide on a guest list of a hundred and fifty.
