For those of you planning a wedding in the coming

For those of you planning a wedding in the coming weeks and months, it is no doubt a very worrying and testing time. Wedding planning is supposed to be enjoyable and stress free and it is breaking my heart to see so many couples wondering if the dream they are planning is going to be possible.⁠⠀

There are no easy answers, no direct solutions, but the wedding planning industry as a whole is doing its best to help guide couples through this period.⁠⠀

Please join me live over on Facebook at 6pm as I will be not only passing on my advice but also answering any specific questions that you might have. And if you can't join me live, please post your question in the comments below . The link to my Facebook page is in the bio.⁠⠀

Spring is hopefully just around the corner, and it reminds me of this gorgeous Easter wedding at @iscoydpark in Shropshire, ⁠⠀ when the sun shone and we hired this fabulous car from @fabweddingcars.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The wedding service took place in a local church, after which the groom drove the bride back to their gorgeous country house venue. You can see more of this beautiful English wedding over on my website. Link in bio.⁠⠀
⁠⠀

On a busy wedding day when you are constantly surr

On a busy wedding day when you are constantly surrounded by others, I love it that we always find the opportunity for special, private moments... such as this one with the bride and her mother.⁠
⁠
As a mother myself, I can always appreciate the emotions of a mother on her daughter's wedding day... how beautiful she looks, how happy you are for her, how excited to be watching her marry her soulmate; but also how did she go from being a little girl to an "about to be married" woman in what feels like the "blink of an eye". ⁠
⁠
You can see more of this beautiful wedding on @smashingtheglass - where it was recently featured. The link is in the bio.⁠

One of the tasks that I look forward to undertakin

One of the tasks that I look forward to undertaking at every wedding is the bridal procession...⁠
⁠ - lining everyone up ⁠ - getting a message to the musicians when we are all set to go⁠ - sending them off, pair by pair⁠ - making sure everyone is relaxed, happy, clear on where they are going and what to do once they reach the front⁠ - advising them to smile, walk slowly, look up and enjoy the moment⁠ - and finally, having a few words with the bride just before she sets off herself (and sometimes a tear as I watch her walking down the aisle)⁠
⁠
It's all part of my #hugnotahandshake service.⁠
