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. I've also worked as a calligrapher since 2005, specialising in weddings and handwritten poems, readings and gifts. You can find my calligraphy work at By Moon & Tide.

Are we losing the art of writing heartfelt, personal wedding speeches without relying on AI for help?

Header image by Northamptonshire wedding photographers Sky Photography I wonder if we’re being subtly steered towards the use of AI for everything wedding. At the top of almost any Google search result in 2025 is an AI overview. When, out of curiosity, I asked ‘how to write wedding vows‘, Google’s Read more
