LET'S GET THE PARTY STARTED!
HERE IS A LIST OF SOME OF MY ALL TIME Favourite SUPPLIERS!
There's everything from videography to full wedding planning and everything in-between!
Booking amazing suppliers really makes a wedding, but take some time, read their websites and chat to them directly and make up your own mind before booking. These are all people I have either worked with myself, or met in the industry.
LET'S TALK VIDEO
I get asked a lot if there is a certain videographer I recommend. Well honestly, I don't have just one, there's so many talented video people in the industry how could I ever pick just one!
My biggest and best advise is to book a videographer who has a documentary / candid approach.
My goal is to capture the magic as it happens on your wedding day, not to keep stopping and setting up posed shots, so find someone who has an unscripted approach, and it wont stop me from being able to capture those timeless moments!
Dan Williams Films
Danny is an amazing videographer and also a close friend of mine. We met a few years back and have worked together on a number of occasions!
Check out the video to see me and Danny working side by side. The goal is always to work together as one team and hiring a good videographer does just that!
Danny's style leans more on the elegant and timeless side of the spectrum, with beautiful tones in his edits!
Jordan Greenwood
Jordan is an awesome guy who really wants to create something special. Jordan's style leans more towards alternative, with slightly darker edits and a gorgeous colour profile. Jordan's approach is mainly documentary, capturing the day as it unfolds!
Electric Reel Films
Georgia is truly unique in her approach to wedding video. If you don't want the standard wedding video, look no further!
Georgia has an amazing way of creating authentic moments and blending them with the beautiful candid action of your day. Her editing style is like no other! Her approach does lean on a few more staged moments, but all of them create true connections and add amazing impact to your video / gallery!
Lastly, lets look at Wedlock Films' retro package
The guys over at wedlock films have come up with something quite different.
You receive a box containing 3 retro camcorders, instructions and a heap loads of batteries. Your guests go wild, film the day through their eyes, capturing all of that unscripted madness. After the wedding you return the box and the guys put together one hell of a vintage film of the day!
WE'RE ALL FOODIES RIGHT?
FOOD IS SUCH A BIG PART OF A WEDDING
Most venues offer you a caterer, usually for your standard 3 courses, if that's your thing, go right ahead.
If you're looking for something to mix things up, have you considered street food? It's been a huge success at recent weddings. Here's some of my faves!
Pellizco
I've been lucky enough to come across these guys at a few weddings and boy, they know their way around some Mexican food!
Banzai Food
specialising in Thai & Japanese street food, these guys are amazing, the portion size was huge and the food was top notch! Some of the best street food I've come across!
The Vintage Scoop
If you're looking for a beautiful ice cream tricycle, these guys are perfect. P.S. The ice cream is to DIE for!

OF COURSE WE'RE DOING CONFETTI
WHO DOESN'T LOVE A CONFETTI SHOT!
My best advise with confetti is to get proper paper confetti. It's fully biodegradable and eco friendly, and when it's thrown, it hangs in the air to create some beautiful photos!
There's two companies killing the game when it comes to paper confetti.
PROPER CONFETTI

HAIR AND MAKE UP
CAN'T FORGET THIS ONE CAN WE
Hair and makeup is a very personal thing so please make sure you find someone who you relate to.
That being said, the best hair and make up duo I know are Lizzy and Jess
MAKEUP BY LIZZY BROWNE
Lizzy is such a great person to work with, she is such a friendly vibe, exactly what you need on the morning of your wedding. Also, she has the most awesome rainbow hair you ever did see.
JESSICA REEVES HAIR
Jess' work speaks for itself! Lizzy and jess make one hell of a duo and work great togther.
CAN'T FORGET THE OUTFIT
BRIDES OF BAKEWELL
Mother daughter dream team Al & Molly are just amazing, they offer a truly personalised and relaxed service to help you find the perfect outfit for yourself as well as your bridesmaids.
I was lucky enough to photograph Al's wedding last year and I'm booked to photography Molly's wedding this year, so I can say first hand how lovely these two are, I couldn't imagine a more inclusive and welcoming space to find your perfect outfit.
FLOWERS
THIS ONES IMPORTANT RIGHT
I absolutely love flowers and think they're and amazing way to bring some nature into your day! Flower design is truly an art so here a few of my favourites that create some truly beautiful bouquets and floral displays for you.
Rock & Wreath
If you're after floral design with and edge, Gem is the one for you!
Meadows and Mulberry
Karen is a natural when it comes to all things flowers, if you're getting married in the north, she's absolutely your woman.
ENTERTAINMENT
There's so many diffident ways to keep your guests entertained, my best advise is to think outside the box and keep them busy, especially during quiet periods of the day.
Here's a few ways you could do that!
Just for your occasion
These guys have so many amazing wooden garden games and props to keep your guest entertained for hours!
Jordan Maycock Magician
What can I say about Jordan. It's hard to tell if he has spent years of his life mastering his craft, or if he was born a wizard and decided to become a magician to impress the muggles.
Not only does Jordan do magic, he can host your day as well. I personally think this is a great option, as it helps keep things running smoothly with one voice keeping a flow of the day!

Jessica has an amazing service where she offers live wedding illustrations!
