Over my time of shooting weddings I have seen some incredible ones.<\/p>\n

Last week after shooting a very relaxed wedding I realised that maybe I need to share some info that might help out any future brides when it comes to your wedding day<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1.<\/p>\n

This might be the most obvious one but lets talk about Stress<\/strong><\/p>\n

Planning a wedding is seriously stressful; keeping track of all the details, the guests and everyone wanting to give their opinion. So tip number 1.<\/p>\n

Take a break form the planning now and then; go for a yoga class, have a glass of wine and step away from that wedding folder just to get some sanity back in your life.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2.<\/p>\n

Bridesmaids, grooms men, family and friends. DRAMA, Drama, Drama!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now I know I might not be a very liked person saying this but I have seen this countless times become an issue at and sometimes before weddings.<\/p>\n

Before you pick your bridesmaids before you decide who will get dressed with you.<\/p>\n

Think it over as I have so often seen how bickering breaks out in the bridal room how families start feuding about the seating chart.<\/p>\n

Leaving you the beautiful bride sometimes in tears. So here it is tip 2 if you suspect that someone will cause a bit of drama then keep them far away from yourself.<\/p>\n

This is your day and a very big one where you agree to marry the person you love. Its not about anything ells and don\u2019t let drama steal that away.<\/p>\n

3.<\/p>\n

Vendors\u2026<\/strong> SO I first need to say I have seen some amazing vendors out there doing amazing work, going beyond their scope and delivering results that are just down right dreamy!<\/p>\n

BUT in all the time of shooting weddings we come across instances where vendors don\u2019t come through for the bride and groom. T<\/p>\n

they arrive late, or the don\u2019t 100% deliver on what they promise. So tip 3 is this, do you research on your vendors make sure they will come through for you. Make sure they know what you want. Don\u2019t base these choices on money or friendliness.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4<\/p>\n

Your marriage<\/strong>. Yes I am talking to you future Mrs. and Mr. Weddings are pretty and stunning and will make anyone fall in love again.<\/p>\n

But word of wisdom is that you need to remember once you\u2019ve said I do, eaten the cake and danced the night away your other half will stay forever. So don\u2019t forget to work on your relationship during the planning process.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget to spend time on the wedding day actually in the moment with your loved one as this is not the end of the fairytale but only the start.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"5<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5<\/p>\n

Shoes, dresses and all things your wear. This is a big one for the wedding day. There is nothing more horrible that being uncomfortable specially if you have between 80 \u2013 100 people admiring or looking at you.<\/p>\n

Even from our photography perspective if you feel uncomfortable you will most definitely look uncomfortable in your photos.<\/p>\n

So tip number 5 make sure that your wedding dress sit comfortably, your shoes have been worn a bit, the tie is not too tight and that there is absolutely nothing stopping you form having loads of fun!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All in all if you take deep breaths and try not get overwhelmed. You keep your focus on the end goal of being married then all will be fine.<\/p>\n

Weddings are magical and having the right partner makes it even better!. Good luck with your planning!<\/p>\n
