Wedding photographer review
Emis was a brilliant photographer, who captured our day perfectly. We knew before we started looking that we wanted natural, candid photos that told the story of the day as you looked through them, rather than posed photos. As soon as we found his website, we knew he was the one! He managed to capture all of the emotions of the day and we had the best time going through all the photos after to relive the day. It was especially important he captured all of those moments we missed on the day, particularly as we didn’t have an official videographer.
Your best wedding moment or memory
Some friends performed Irish dancing in the afternoon, and we also learnt some of the dance and got up to perform with them! We managed to keep it a secret from everyone so it was a total surprise for all our guests and they loved it. Great craic!
Tell us anything you did differently – we love hearing about NEW traditions (or none at all!)
We officially tied the knot a week earlier at our local town hall, and instead got one of our close friends to act as celebrant on the day. This meant we could really personalise the whole ceremony – including a small interlude to sing ‘Hey Jude’ by the Beatles, while we did a ring warming ritual.

The Secret Barn – Petal and Feast
Hannah, Sally and the rest of the team were fantastic on the day, helping everything behind the scenes run smoothly. The food was excellent and the flowers were jaw-droppingly gorgeous!
Tell us a little about your outfits – both of you!
The bride wore an ivory satin slip dress from Grace Loves Lace, with a floral embroidered veil from the same brand. Shoes were good old ASOS!
The groom wore a navy suit from Suit Supply, with a tie and pocket square from Crossrow London.
Florist name + review
Petal and Feast took care of all our flowers – simply stunning. I wanted colourful and big, and they certainly delivered on that front – my bouquet was almost as big as me!
Any crafty projects or homemade styling touches?
We painted on large canvases our seating plan and running order of the day to save some money!
Hair + makeup name + review
Izzy took care of the myself and the bridesmaids on the day. I opted for a light, soft pink make up which I felt super comfortable in!
Hair was done by myself, and totally fell out while I was dancing but in the end it didn’t matter – I was having too much of a good time!
