16/10/2023

The concept of a traditional wedding is not what it used to be, with large, lavish events becoming a thing of the past. More couples are opting to host smaller weddings right at home.

What about your wedding photos though? Can you still expect beautiful, eye-catching images if you’re having an at-home wedding? Absolutely! Here are some tips that will help you prepare.

📸 Find the Right Photographer
The first thing you need to do to get great images of your at-home wedding is to find a photographer with experience and a style you love. Take your time and do your research! Start by looking at each photographer’s portfolio and speaking to them over the phone before arranging in-person meetings.

It’s important to feel comfortable with a photographer because they will be in your personal space for most of the day.

📸 Schedule a Site Visit
Once you find your wedding photographer, have them over. This way, they can see where the ceremony and reception will take place and you can discuss your expectations with them. Use this time for a basic rundown of your wedding day too.

📸 Pick the Spots with the Best Light
When planning your wedding, pick every area with light in mind. For example, make sure that the room you’re getting ready in offers some natural light as this makes for the best photos. When it comes to the ceremony, where will the sun be as you say I Do? You don’t want it to be in your eyes. This is something that your photographer can also help you with.

📸 Get Rid of Clutter
A lot goes on the morning of a wedding, but it’s essential to keep your space clutter-free. You could have the perfect shot all lined up, but have it ruined by something in the background. Assign this task to someone in your wedding party to make your morning as stress-free as possible.

If you need any more advice or have questions about how to get the best at-home wedding photos, know that your photographer will have all the answers and suggestions you need.

More couples are opting to have smaller, more intimate, budget friendly weddings. Hosting your wedding in your backyard gives you a lot more flexibility and choice. You are 100% in control of every aspect, including décor, food, drinks, and timing. Plus, you get to play around with layouts in your own time. Just keep in mind that hosting a backyard wedding also means you need to take care of absolutely everything yourself. However, if you have people willing to help you and you enjoy planning in general, this isn’t a negative.

Top Backyard Wedding Planning Tips:
1. Evaluate your space.
Do you have enough room for your guests, tables, chairs, a dance floor, food area, ceremony area, and more?
If you have a few suppliers in mind, you can ask them for assistance and guidance in terms of the layout. Getting your photographer’s opinion on the layout will also ensure your photos look great.

2. Work with what you have.
As you plan out the different sections, consider and use what’s available. You should also consider the date of your wedding. Which flowers will be in bloom and how will this impact your photos? Once you know how to best utilize the space, plan how you will prep before your big day.

3. Think about the guest experience.
What do you want your guests to experience on the day of your wedding? Will certain guests have specific requirements such as a proper chair to feel comfortable? After the ceremony, where do you want guests to go? Basically, you want to plan the flow of the day and pair that with how you plan to use your backyard to create the best possible guest experience.

You should also keep your neighbors and the neighborhood in mind – are there any restrictions ? What about parking? Can you accommodate guests and vendors that will drive to your home? If you plan to invite out-of-town guests, be sure to mention accommodation options to them.

4. Remember the small details.
Make sure your bathrooms are stocked. You may even need to get someone to help throughout the day to ensure the bathrooms are kept in a decent state.
As for your guests, should they wear flat shoes for walking over grass? Should they bring something warm because it’s an outdoor ceremony?

5. Get help.
Backyard weddings are more hands-on, so don’t refuse help from friends and family. Everyone taking care of one or two details will ensure the entire day runs smoothly.
It also gives you and your partner more room to enjoy the process and your wedding day.

How to Choose A Wedding Color Scheme that Photographs Well

So you’re about to start planning your big day!
As you may already know, there’s a lot of advice out there for new brides, so much so that it can be difficult to decide what advice to take and what to ignore.

If you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of the advice you’ve been reading and receiving, here are a few wedding planning myths that you can definitely toss aside.

Remember that your wedding day should be unique to you and your partner so do what you feel is right when planning your special day.

BUT FIRST... MAKEUP 💄

THE PROBLEM: Brides-to-be booking makeup and hair trials with a styling team they’ve chosen too close to their wedding day then being disappointed with the results and PANIC!

We’ve had less of a stream and more of a raging river of enquiries from desperate brides in this situation recently. We really feel for them and always try to squeeze them in somewhere but sometimes it’s just not possible.

THE SOLUTION: Brides-to-be – please book your makeup/hair trials soon after finding your chosen makeup artist and hairstylist. Give yourself as much time and less stress as possible if things don’t quite go to plan the first time around.

WHEN TO START LOOKING: Ideally book the venue, photographer and makeup artist/hairstylist at around the same time. The best suppliers get booked 12-24 months in advance so give yourself as big a chance as possible of getting all your favorite choices for your dream day.

RECOMMENDED PROCESS: Find out the availability of your chosen venue and then contact your bridal beauty experts to make sure they’re available too.
A lot of our brides enquire about our availability BEFORE the venue!

If you do things this way you’ll ensure that you’ll be dancing away on your wedding day looking and feeling quite simply awesome!

When you first get engaged, it’s all about the beautiful dress, the hunt for the perfect venue and deciding on your wedding party. The last thing you want to do is have to think about a budget but, unfortunately, it’s an important part of the wedding planning process.

A wedding budget will ensure that you’re spending wisely and that you and your fiancé don’t need to have any awkward conversations about money later on. Plus, the more you can save, the more money you’ll have for an amazing honeymoon.

Many brides also tend to think that creating a budget means you’re never going to be able to have the wedding of your dreams but in actual fact, having a budget forces you to think out the box, get more creative and stay on track at the same time, something that every couple is thankful for after their big day.

Below are a few tips that you can use to stay on track financially as you create the budget for your wedding.

How to Handle Divorced Parents During the Wedding Planning Process

04/08/2023

This contract is a binding agreement between you and your photographer, so it’s important to make sure you are happy with the details before you go ahead and sign. A contract is also there to protect the photographer, ensuring the couple follows through on their commitment to pay for their services.

Why Your Wedding Contract Matters
You might think your wedding photography contract is something you can simply glance over, but this is the wrong way to go about it. There is nothing more frustrating than having certain expectations but later finding out they were not outlined in the contract.

There are two main reasons why it is important to have a contract in place with your wedding photographer:

1. Misrepresentation of Services. A photographer can make a lot of promises and without a contract, you have no foot to stand on if they don’t deliver.

2. Misuse of Photos. While most photographers use photos for their portfolios, a contract ensures you know if and how your photos will be used.

When you don’t have a detailed contract in place, you can’t prove that a photographer didn’t follow through on the agreed-upon services and terms.

What a Wedding Photography Contract Should Include
While every contract will be slightly different, here are a few specifics you should include in yours:
1. Wedding Day Details. Make sure your contract includes the date and location of your wedding as well as the names of the bride and groom.

2. Photography Package Details. Include the specific wedding photography package you decided on as well as any other extras that were agreed upon.

3. Payment Terms. Will you be paying a deposit? And if so, what is the percentage? Are there any non-refundable retainer fees? Make sure all the payment terms are outlined in your contract.

4. Deliverables. If your photographer has agreed that your photos and album will be available six weeks after your wedding, ensure those details are in your contract. Other deliverables to outline are the number of hours you’ve booked your photographer for and whether any overtime is allowed or available as an option.

5. Rescheduling. There is always a chance that your photographer may cancel or reschedule and vice versa, so make sure you know what these parameters are.

6. Copyright Details and Model Release. If you think there is a chance you might be sharing your photos with publications and websites other than Facebook and Instagram, make sure your contract clears this. You should also review the details of how your photographer is allowed to use your photos and whether you’re happy with them.

7. Meals and Extras. Lastly, make sure you understand whether you need to provide your photographer with a meal and if their price covers any transport costs.

These are the most important aspects to consider when reviewing your wedding photography contract. Once both you and your photographer have a signed copy of your contract, you can start getting excited about all the beautiful memories you get to capture.

Just because you’ve found your ideal wedding photographer doesn’t mean they need to agree to work with you. As much as couples want to choose the right photographer, wedding photographers also need to decide whether a couple is a good match for them.

If you have your eye on a specific wedding photographer, here are a few things you can do to ensure they are willing to capture your big day.

If you’ve been shopping around for wedding venues but can’t quite find an option that fits in with your budget and style, a cocktail-style 🍹 reception might be right for you.

During the reception, guests can select exactly what they would like to eat from food stations – no time limits, courses, or set menus. It’s more of a relaxed reception style, which isn’t the traditional approach. However, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it.
Here are some good reasons to consider a cocktail-style 🍸 wedding reception.

As you get closer to your wedding day, you’re going to need to find someone to lead the ceremony. You will probably have quite a few questions for your officiant, but they will have a few for you too.

Choosing the right officiant for your wedding is important, so don’t rush the decision or feel that you have to go with the first officiant you meet. Choose someone who understands who you are, what you want, and someone you both connect with.

Here is some of the information you should prepare prior to meeting with your wedding officiant.

There is nothing quite as heart-warming as the connection between a father and a daughter, especially on her wedding day. There are so many moments throughout your wedding day that involve your dad, but there is a handful that should definitely be on your shot list.

If your dad is one of the most important people in your life, speak to your photographer about other photo ideas for your big day.
