Cave Castle weddings have a reputation… and this one absolutely lived up to it. Big personalities, loads of laughter, and the kind of energy where you know early on it’s going to be a proper party.
We brought our DSLR-powered Magic Mirror and positioned it at the bottom of the staircase near the piano — one of the best spots in the venue. Guests naturally pass through here all evening, which means constant photos without interrupting the dancefloor flow.
Quick takeaways:
- Party energy from minute one.
- The first hour was absolutely rammed.
- Perfect example of why placement matters.
The Setting – Cave Castle
Cave Castle works brilliantly because the celebration spreads beyond the main room. Rather than hiding entertainment away, we placed the mirror in the crossover space guests naturally move through before heading to the DJ.
That transition zone is magic: drink → chat → photo → dancefloor.
It keeps the night moving and gives guests something fun to do between songs without missing the party.
Proper Party Energy
Around 70 guests filled the venue, and within minutes the mirror area was busy. For the first hour it barely stopped — constant groups, constant laughs, constant “one more photo”.
Highlight moment of the night? The bride falling down the stairs.
Before anyone worries — she was absolutely fine and laughing immediately afterwards. Honestly, it summed up the night perfectly: relaxed, fun, slightly chaotic and full of great people.
Supplier shoutout
Always great working alongside Paul Hawkett Photography, capturing the real moments while we create them.
The Photos
Cave Castle is bright and open, which works brilliantly with our DSLR setup. No dark corners, no harsh shadows — just clean, flattering photos guests actually want to keep.
Set up at the bottom of the stairs — perfect traffic flow.
