Sally and Billy wanted nothing to do with tradition. They scrapped the big sit-down dinner, ditched the cake and favours, and tore the rule book to shreds. What they created instead was two days that were entirely their own: a London elopement followed by a full-blown gig in Exeter they called their "Wedebration".

Don’t Get Scammed: Red Flags to Spot When Booking a Wedding Photographer

Kat

October 1, 2025

This week I was invited onto BBC Radio 4 to talk about a photographer who scammed a bunch of couples by taking their money and either not showing up, sending someone else (who they then had to pay again!) and/or never delivering any photos. Luckily, situations like this are very rare, but she shared a few tips on how to avoid it happening to you. There was so much more I wanted to say on air, so I'm taking matters into my own hands and leaving the rest of my advice here!

The biggest motivator for Em and Kris was that their wedding looked and felt like them. That meant a riot of colour, owl ring bearers and DIY-a-plenty! “We wanted our day to be a reflection of us and our love which is crazy and a little unpolished sometimes", Em said. "We are both raw and passionate people who wanted to create a day that would be full of joy.”

Bringing Your Subculture Into Your Wedding

Kat

September 24, 2025

There’s no rule that says a wedding has to look like lace and champagne flutes. If your life is already lived through a scene, style, or subculture, why should your wedding day be any different? Forget toning it down for the sake of tradition. This is your chance to turn the volume up.

Mikkel and Yana flew in from Copenhagen to Vegas with one plan in mind: chaos wrapped in sequins. Their wedding was never going to be quiet or restrained. They described their theme as “Vegas. Punk. Rock ‘n’ Roll. Tarantino. Trashy fabulousness” and when they found their officiant, Hellvis, they knew they had the final piece. “He was the missing rhinestone", they said.

The Artist’s Way: When Renaissance Art Meets a Raccoon Obsession

Sarah and Spencer wanted their wedding to feel like an extension of their home, their shared obsessions, and the places that shaped their relationship. The Amon Carter Museum of American Art became their ceremony venue, not just because it is an iconic space in Fort Worth, but because Sarah’s own story as an artist is tied to it. In 2019 she held a Carter Community Artist Residency there, a project that shifted her career and cemented her love for bringing art into public spaces. To marry there was less about grandeur and more about circling back to a place that had given her so much.

Maya and Collin chose Halloween season as the backdrop for their wedding. They kicked things off with a trip to Halloween Horror Nights, and wanted a day that was part goth, part fall harvest, part Day of the Dead. "We were thinking spooky romantic", Maya said. Their florist, The Little Branch pulled their styling ideas together with dark plums, branches, moss, and skulls. The look felt old-world and atmospheric without needing much direction.

Liz was working as a wedding photographer and renting an office space in a tattoo studio in Philadelphia when she met Sheep, an English tour manager passing through town. She wasn’t even supposed to be in the shop that day, but the studio owner whistled her over to introduce her to his friend. Ten minutes of small talk, Sheep walked out and asked for her Instagram. Liz remembers prancing around the studio after he messaged, while the owner called it: “Y’all are either going to have one date and never see each other again or you’re gonna get married, I’m calling it.” I guess they were right!
