Getting married at Quantock Lakes? Let Pixaplace Weddings craft a cinematic, story-driven film that feels as breathtaking as the venue itself — from lakeside vows to confetti, speeches and a packed dance floor.
Why Quantock Lakes is perfect on film
Quantock Lakes is an exclusive-use barn wedding venue in Somerset set within 200 acres at Inwood Farm, Nether Stowey, with sweeping views of the Quantock Hills — a dream backdrop for natural, cinematic storytelling.
The venue flows across three barns: the Rustic Barn (ceremony & snug), Meadow Barn (wedding breakfast), and Quantock Barn (central hub & evening party). Capacity is listed at up to 250 seated (ceremony/dining) and up to 500 standing for the evening — ideal if you’re planning a big celebration. On-site accommodation typically sleeps around 60 guests for up to two nights, keeping everyone together across the wedding eve and wedding night.
Ceremony options: Two licensed indoor ceremony spaces (Rustic Barn and Quantock Barn). A lake pontoon may be available outdoors in perfect conditions — the venue team makes the final call based on weather, ensuring comfort and safety.
How we film Quantock Lakes (our approach)
Cinematic + documentary blend: Genuine moments first; elegant movement, clean compositions and natural colour grades that match the venue’s warm timber, lakes and meadows.
Discreet, well-timed coverage: We coordinate with your planner and venue team so the transition between Rustic → Meadow → Quantock Barn is seamless on camera.
Broadcast-level audio: Multi-track recording for vows, readings and speeches so every word lands in the edit.
Low-light mastery: Subtle lighting options for evening in Quantock Barn and cosy log-burner spaces without killing the atmosphere.
Weather-smart planning: Backup shot lists for indoors; if a lakeside ceremony isn’t viable, we stage beautiful alternatives under cover.

Venue-specific notes we plan around
Guest flow: Welcome drinks at Quantock/Franks Bar → ceremony (Rustic or Quantock Barn) → Meadow Barn for the breakfast → Quantock Barn party. We map camera positions for each phase so you never feel crowded.
Details that shine on film: Fairy lights, candles, oak swing, jetty & pontoon, outside feature lighting and the fire pit (marshmallow toasts make a great evening cutaway).
Sound & speeches: House PA and microphones are available — we still run our own redundant audio to guarantee clarity.
Supplier standards: The venue requests public liability documents and up-to-date PAT certification from external suppliers — we provide these as standard.
Timeline tips for Quantock Lakes
Golden hour: Set aside 15–20 minutes around sunset to use the meadows, jetties and lakes — this is your money-light.
Two-night stay advantage: With check-in the wedding eve and most parties staying two nights, we capture relaxed rehearsal vibes and morning prep without rush.
Plan B ceremony: If the pontoon isn’t feasible, Rustic/Quantock Barn ceremony setups are beautiful and weather-proof.
Dancefloor energy: Quantock Barn’s party layout films brilliantly — we use multi-angle coverage for first dance and live band/DJ.
