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.

Wedding blogs vs directories: what’s the difference and why listing on blogs is best for visibility

I’ve written thousands of blog posts: enough to keep a successful UK wedding blog and calligraphy business going for more than 17 years. I know blogging works in the wedding industry. I’ve made it my mission to understand why, and how, and what to do better. Wedding blogs have always Read more
