Photographers Tips
Bring along any trinkets that you associate with the big day (invites, perfume, jewellery etc.) These details look great in the flat lay photos
Prioritise what really matters and spend time finding the right service/ product or person... no-one really cares if you don't put favours on the table!
Enjoy the planning stage! How ever long you think you are planning in advance that wedding day will come round quickly and the day will pass in a flash!

Don't try and fill every second of the day, it goes too fast as it is.
Don't loose the rings!
No one knows if something hasnt gone to plan except you, so try not to stress the small stuff. Your day will still be perfect even if some things dont go to plan
Talk to your photographer as they will be with you for around 8 hours of your special day. Are they a right fit for you?
Make sure the photographer's style is right for you.
Remember, in life you get what you pay for. So true in the wedding industry.
Get the right confetti for the best confetti shot! Biodegradable tissue confetti is by far the best (and dried flowers are definitely the worst!) Confetti canons are awesome!
Remember that this is your day, make it the most special thing for YOU. Your friends and family are there to celebrate you, so make sure you invest in the things that you really care about.
Always have more confetti than you think you need! If you want the classic big colourful confetti shot, this is going to be key!
Have Fun, enjoy yourself: Things may not go exactly as planned, but try to let it go, focus on the bigger picture. The wedding is ultimately about you & the groom & the rest of your lives.
Prep your bridal party to join you on the dance floor! No one is brave enough to be the first to crash the first dance but they'll happily follow if bridesmaids and groomsmen lead the way!
Always have on your best Smile!
Create a wedding day scent. You can do this with placing your favourite flowers around your venue in various rooms or with perfume, it will always remind of the day when you smell it.
A bit of a gross one, but it's probably one you need to hear... poop before you get into your dress! Nothing worse than realising you need to use the loo once you're all zipped up.
There are no rules. Forget about what's gone before, don't worry about trends, or 'must-haves'. It's your day, just be you.
Walk around the venue with your photographer before the big day - sort out the best spots and then its easy to relax com the wedding!
