From behind the camera

Filming at East Ivy Mansion: what we've learned.

Best first look spot
In the garden, or framed by the mansion itself: its 1867 Italian Renaissance architecture makes a beautiful backdrop.
The light
A mix of indoor rooms and outdoor courtyards. We bring lighting for the indoor moments and plan portraits around the best outdoor light of your day.
The ceremony
Outside, in the gardens or courtyards.
The reception
Through the mansion and out into the courtyards, with the pool area glowing at night.
If it rains
Outdoor plans move into the mansion itself, so there's always a beautiful indoor backdrop.
Drone-friendly?
Yes. The drone shows off more than the mansion and its grounds: from above we can capture your table design, your colors, and all the time and care your planning and design team put into setting the scene. It's lovely from the air in every season, and you can see it for yourself in Jocasta and Nick's film on this page.
One tip for your timeline
Save ten minutes after dark for night portraits. The lit pool and courtyards give you some of the most striking photos and film moments at East Ivy Mansion.
