There’s something so magical about a summer wedding. But while the idea of tying the knot under sunny skies sounds like a dream, the reality can be a little more sweaty. Heat, humidity, and formalwear aren’t always the best combination, especially when you’re the one in the spotlight. If you’re the groom or bride, staying cool, comfortable and photo-ready is entirely possible with a bit of clever planning. Here’s how to survive a sizzling summer wedding without melting under the pressure.
Believe it or not, content creators weren’t a thing a couple of years ago, especially not in weddings. In 2025, they’re everywhere, causing a delightful splash on the wedding scene and providing a sought-after service for modern couples excited to share their day online. I’ve met some fabulous content creators, and spoken to wedding photographers who love working alongside them.
But the rise of wedding content creators has instigated some interesting discussions online: from a tiny minority who’ve caused problems for wedding photographers (because this has been a learning curve for everyone!) to established pros wondering if wedding photography has a future at all. (It does!) At this point I had to step up and explain why you still need a wedding photographer, even if you’ve booked a content creator to capture your wedding.
When it comes to bridal style, few adornments evoke such timeless romance and refined elegance as pearls. Whether you’re drawn to the soft glow of classic freshwater pearls or the versatility of beautifully crafted faux designs, pearl wedding jewellery remains the ultimate symbol of sophisticated bridal beauty.
At Emma Rose Jewellery, we believe every bride deserves to feel radiant and true to her personal style. That’s why our carefully curated collection of pearl bridal jewellery offers everything from minimalist classics to opulent statement pieces—ensuring you’ll find the perfect finishing touch for your wedding day.

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 AI threw up a detailed breakdown of what to include, recommending that I ‘write from the heart’ and ‘be authentic’, following up with notes on structure and where to find more inspiration online. Oh, the irony…
At least it stopped short of asking me if I wanted it to help by writing vows for me.
