Describe the best wedding that happened at New Place?
Every wedding is the best wedding - we can't just choose one! We are so lucky to be involved in people's magical moments and each wedding is special.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Take your time in all your planning. Don't rush otherwise it will consume you. Make sure you give time to yourself to get through all your wed-min - perhaps set up an email account dedicated to all things weddings so it's easier to keep everything in one place.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
An instant photo guest book. It's becoming more and more popular and it's so nice to see some quick snaps from the wedding day along with a personalised message that the couple can keep forever and look back on. Plus they get to see parts of a wedding that they may have missed so it's always a bonus looking through those pictures the next morning.
