Hi Larry, these films were professionally restored and converted by both a company in Cheshire and the British Film Institute. All of the films are from my personal 8mm archive built up over the years from my Grandfather and Father. This particular reel is from a family wedding held in North Staffordshire.
Hi, I make audio-biographies for people and have been looking for clips of home videos to use to promote it. Yours is amazing! Would I be able to use some of it if I credit you? Thanks in advance.
@@swordfishradio Hi again, at the risk of pushing my luck... would I be able to use some of your video called Martin's first christmas? The video I'm making will be a montage of milestones in peoples lives starting at being born, getting married etc. And the bit I'm missing is the baby. Please just let me know when you can, no rush. Thanks again.
Aye, good old handheld 8MM Cine and yes sound would of been great back then but way too expensive for my Father to commit to. He moved away from Cine around 1982 and we went full colour VHS video. Im lucky I managed to keep hold of these films as my late Father's new Wife wanted to throw them all away!
I think it may have been late 70s but not 100 percent sure. The lady getting married is not that much older than myself and thats kinda what Im basing this on.
Ah, when the bride and groom had matching hairstyles 😂 brings back MANY memories 💜
In 1963 my sister among her wedding presents were 6 salt and pepper sets. How times have changed.
Hope they made it on through ❤
Reminds me of being a bridesmaid in 1972 when I was 8.
Reminds me of looking at my mums wedding pictures she married my dad December 1975
I remember the hats!!!
I was a 9 Yr old bridesmaid in 1977 .had an angel sleeved dress.
Terrific video quality. How about sharing information regarding source, resolution, software, etc?

Yep, no worries at all. Thanks for asking before use as well, much appreciated.
Pity no sound but still lovely I remember being a bridesmaid in 78 for my aunt I was 10 at the time

Wondering what the year is - looks mid 70s. 1975 perhaps?
