Photographers talk a lot about ‘Golden Hour’, so you may have heard of it on instagram or from any photographers or wedding blogs you follow. But do you know exactly what golden hour is?
Is golden hour something we should consider when I’m booking a wedding photographer? What can we do to give ourselves the best chance of getting amazing golden hour wedding pics?
So often we hear about “wedding stress” that it’s almost taken as a given: you should expect wedding planning to be stressful. I think this is a dangerous perception, as wedding planning can be difficult, but it shouldn’t have an impact on your mental health.

If you’re suffering from stress as a result of wedding planning, it’s time to take a step back and look for help.

Let’s start with a note here that jokes are absolutely not just for the best man. Anyone at a wedding can make a speech; you may have a ‘Best Person’ instead, or the bridesmaids / bridesmen might team up and give a cracking speech which has the room in stitches. Traditionally, the (best man’s) funny speech is the one people are really looking forward to, so we thought it would be fab to share some real life favourites with you – and with fab photos by English Wedding member Nathan at Libra Photographic. Grab a cuppa, and have a chuckle (or a groan) at these golden moments!

Cue wedding-preparation panic? Don’t fret; we’ve got you covered with the ultimate guide to planning your wedding reception menu.
Using these tips, you’ll soon put together a delicious menu of wedding-worthy cuisine to make your big day even more memorable.
On International Women’s Day, I felt this was worth talking about more than anything else a wedding blog could cover. It’s a message we need to absorb, share and repeat again and again. Because the answer is very often no. Wedding photographers aren’t safe at weddings. Shockingly often, female, trans and non binary wedding photographers are bullied, harassed, threatened and assaulted.
