Claire Gould

Hi, I'm Claire, the editor of English Wedding. I've been sharing real weddings, planning advice and styled editorials by amazing wedding suppliers for more than ten years. As a supplier myself, I launched English Wedding as a platform for UK wedding businesses to stay visible online, publishing their beautiful work in a meaningful way - because I see how deeply suppliers care about everything they do. English Wedding has evolved to support a slower, more sustainable kind of visibility for wedding suppliers. Being published here protects your brand voice while helping couples discover your business, building trust through consistent features over time.

Notes on wedding directories vs wedding blogs for advertising
wedding blog

You don’t need to list your wedding business in directories – even this one – to get bookings. Here’s why.

In 2026, you don’t need to list your wedding business in directories to get bookings. For some people they work really well, but for others they just eat money – so I’ve spent a little time this week really considering the alternatives. If you’re curious about a directory-adjacent approach to Read more

Christina & Chris’s immersive (literally!) Lake District wedding, with Mark Battista Photography

My dream wedding would be: a venue high in the mountains with epic views of lakes and fells, locally made craft beers, and a pac-man arcade game, then doughnuts. A fun vicar would be an added bonus. The good news? It’s already been done – and gorgeous couple Christina & Read more
