Taking a little inspiration from an instagram comment that sparked joy for me last week! Thank you @hannahhallphotography for making me smile. So yeah, wedding blogs were MASSIVE back in the day – and then social media exploded, and apps like Bridebook launched, and everything changed. Mainstream wedding magazines collapsed (goodbye Wedding Ideas mag) and niche content or trending stories meant everything. But while everything “out there” changed, wedding blogs are still massively relevant for photographers, suppliers and nearlywed couples (even if you’ve forgotten us a little bit), and I want to tell you why.
If you were with me the other week, I explained how to make a plan for your wedding business blog. The final touch is to add the detail: what the hell do you write? I’ve stood at my desk many times with an empty brain. I know how rubbish it feels when you just don’t know where to start. At times I’ve felt like nothing I say would be interesting, and other times I feel like I’ve said it all before. I’ve been through that complete lack of confidence. And I’ve come out the other side! Now I’m here to help you plan what you’ll write about in your interesting and successful wedding business blog!

Welcome! This is part 2 of a series about blogging for success in the wedding industry. If you read last week’s article I hope you’re convinced that writing blogs for your wedding business is worth your time!
It’s daunting though: whether you’ve blogged before and stopped, or your wedding business is new and it’s something you’ve never tried. The thought of blogging can be off-putting. That’s why I’m writing these articles to help you.
The English Wedding Blog is growing every single day: we’ve featured weddings and styled shoots from so many new photographers and our inbox is constantly bursting with amazingness… so I thought I’d write a little note to all of you fabulous wedding photographers who are yet to get published here. I so hope you’ll be in touch soon!
Know your wedding blogs!

Whether you’re newly engaged or you’ve waited for your big day through multiple postponements, this summer is shaping up to be full of joyful celebrations as we finally seem to have an end in sight to social distancing rules and COVID restrictions.
We think weddings this summer will be a little special – naturally all weddings are happy occasions to be celebrated, however this year they come with the additional celebration of family and friends coming together once again and seeing each other for the first time in what feels like forever!
