Wedding day storytelling – Examples of how I picture your day:

Bridal Madhouse: For the bride, this is likely to be the first experience of WDMT (wedding day meantime) having awoken at the crack of dawn – no alarm required – only to discover in the blink of an eye it’s already 10 am! Where has all the time gone?

Pop the music tv channel on and clear some space for the stylists fridge-sized cosmetics case. Soon the room will be filled excited chatter and a hair spray mist (and remember airport rules apply here: it’s never too early to crack open a bottle of bubbly).

Gallant Groomsmen: The huge brekkie, praying your best man’s speech will err on the right side of friendship-defining character assassination, with slight apprehension about whether “That night in Magaluf” gets mentioned, the googling of “how to tie a cravat”, excessive aftershave will be applied, a hip flask will appear, and suddenly lads, this will all start to feel a bit real.

Last Moments of Singledom: So here we all are – your Last moments of singledom. You’re all scrubbed up and ready to go. Butterflies flutter, guests take their seats, ties are straightened, last hugs & squeezes are given… let’s do this!

Tying the Knot: A short briefing about where to throw the confetti, a polite warning to pop phones on silent before everyone stands to welcome the bridal party. Queue the music… You greet each other with loving smiles – always one of my favourite shots – there’s some mild blubbing from auntie Sue, the best man checks pocket for rings for only the 17th time, but all you can think about is how amazing your partner looks. You’ve done exceptionally well for yourself. Well done!
