Ring Warming - having your guests touch and bless your rings prior to the ceremony is such a beautiful thing to do.

My stunning couple last year had their guests do just that.

There quote…

‘Please take a moment to warm our wedding rings. Hold them in your hand and fill them with your love, blessings and a wish for our future. When we exchange these rings in our ceremony, they will carry not only the promises we make to each other, but also the love and support of each of you. All our love, M & C’
