What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
To ensure you both have some time together during the wedding day, just the two of you. Be it during the car journey from ceremony to hotel or a little breather after photos. It is a lovely busy time so don't forget to check in with one another.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
A recent bride made her own dress, so beautiful. Another couple had their own table numbers from 1 to 10. Each sign was a photo of the bride and groom individually at the age of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc........it was incredibly cute and a great talking point at tables.
