My love for editorials knows no bounds! And this one has stolen my heart for sure. I've been dreaming of curating this one for so long, and alongside an incredible team, we've pulled it off 🖤

It's called Sunrise Sessions, and the concept is around a bride sitting up all night with her suppliers, creating her own unique special day.

Here are a few snippets and so much more to come.

Why do we have a wedding cake?

Here are a few reasons pulled from different cultures:

In ancient Rome guests broke a loaf of bread over the bride's head to symbolize fertility. The newlyweds would share a few bites while guests would scoop up the leftover crumbs for good luck.

In medieval England, the bride and groom had to try to kiss over a pile of stacked spiced buns, scones, and cookies—a precursor to the tiered wedding cakes of today—supposedly ensuring a prosperous future if they were able to successfully smooch without toppling the whole thing over.

The cutting of the cake is a symbol of the couple’s love and commitment to one another. It’s a public display that they are willing to share everything, including their food and drink, for the rest of their lives. Additionally, pressing down on the knife together symbolises the couple working together as a cohesive unit to complete the first task as newlyweds.

Pocket Meadows.
They are by far my favourite choice for the groom!

Why? Because no-one is more hugged and loved and lovingly squished on the day than the bride and groom. Sometimes, a boutonnière can tilt or sag or break easily from all that friction.
A pocket meadow is a slightly sturdier bet. There are more florals, so if some get squished you always still end up with something there. They slide easily into the jacket pocket and sit neatly for all the photos. No tilting stress at all.

Bride Tribe... a way to ensure you have the necessary support you need on your wedding day. Choose wisely and you'll breathe easier throughout your entire planning process and wedding day activities.

What are groom detail photos for? I get asked this by almost every groom as we plan their wedding.

Each item you select to be a part of your day tells a bit of the 'story of you'.
The cologne you wear, your valued items and accessories. All of these are bits that are a part of what makes you unique to your bride.

Capturing them is a lovely way to memorialize the day.

When the evening is in full swing, the atmosphere is super romantic, and the guests are having a good time, I breathe a sigh of happiness and relief.

There is nothing quite as satisfying as watching people enjoy an evening you put together for them.
