(Why do we even need to say this? Because media giants are exploiting small wedding brands and it needs to stop.)

Basic directories don’t work. But they’re still charging £££ to join.

Wedding suppliers work SO hard. If industry website owners and editors don’t recognise that and provide value – ie work hard FOR you – they’re not worth your money. 

English Wedding’s supplier listings include keyword links which work harder to show search engines your content. And I reach out regularly to our members to ask if they have weddings, product launches or other content to share because I want them to be seen, and I feel a responsibility to help boost their SEO efforts however I can.

Timeless, breathtakingly beautiful images from Suman and Scott’s day are stopping me in my tracks as I scroll today. This stunning couple married at Coombe Abbey and chose English Wedding member Damien Vickers – a luxury wedding photographer in Cambridge – to capture their day. More than anything else, it’s the love in their eyes as they glance at each other that makes Suman and Scott’s wedding so magical. Their words for favourite Coombe Abbey wedding suppliers – including their brilliant photographer of course – are heartfelt. An enchanting wedding – and we’ll share even more on our instagram today @englishweddingblog

A super stylish, utterly beautiful intimate wedding for you today – and one I’ve been beyond excited to share. Alice and Jackson married with their closest, most special people in the world… then the following day, headed to Tuscany all together! Their day is perfect, the images are toe-tinglingly amazing, and every moment of this wedding beams with joy. Images are by the exceptionally brilliant Grace Elizabeth Photography, who gets a gorgeous review from the happy couple!

Strikingly beautiful floristry can elevate a wedding more than anything else. Sweeping, statement floral displays will wow your guests and look sensational in your wedding album. For a stately home wedding, it’s essential to choose flowers and arrangements to do more than just complement the space: they should take inspiration from your venue’s aesthetic and bring your wedding vision to life in the most beautiful way. To create unforgettable installations, work with an experienced designer who specialises in flowers for stately home weddings. I had the loveliest chat with luxury wedding florist Jemma Khan, whose advice for couples is golden.

If you’re looking for a little joy in the world today, we have it for you. A quiet elopement in Devon, set in a 20th century mansion which offers intimate weddings for 2 as well as celebrations for over a hundred guests. Lucy and Lewis chose to elope, as they have two young children and in Lucy’s words, “we wanted to be in the moment and enjoy it together.” The beautiful images prove they did just that. They celebrated three weeks later with friends and family with a wedding in Plymouth – but it’s their elopement story we’re sharing on English Wedding today.
