Polly and Joe's wedding is so gorgeous and extra special because both of them have downs syndrome. With the help of their family and their 200 guests, they had the most magical celebration of their dreams! They were married in May at Brewerstreet Farmhouse in Surrey. "We met 8 years ago when we were both students at Central Sussex College and were instantly attracted to each other", explained Polly. "We wanted to achieve a festival feel for our wedding that our guests would be excited to be going to."

Tub of Jelly

January 5, 2016

Who says only the bride can wear white? I think this all-white bridal party proves that isn't the case! Don't they all look FANTASTIC!? The bridesmaids in the same colour as the bride wasn't the only unique thing about Harriet and Jesse's wedding though. They styled the day in a way that truly reflected them which meant pineapples, flamingos and fireworks! They day was also held at a friend's house on the Scottish borders.

Chris has African roots and we both wanted to acknowledge this in the symbolism and ceremony of our day. So I guess our theme was... us?"

Tams & Richie were married in County Wicklow, Ireland, in March. Their day was both glamorous and laid back, with a fun-filled festival theme. "We had been bashing our heads against a wall trying to think of a 'theme' for ages, and we landed with Old Hollywood Glamour", began Tams. "I was doing all of the invitations, props, design, look and feel myself, and I began to get really uncomfortable with the whole Hollywood theme and when people started referencing The Great Gatsby, it really didn't settle well. It’s a beautiful, stylised theme and I envy anyone who can pull it off, but it just wasn't us."

There really is no other way to explain Lucy and Benjamin's wedding. There are Alice in Wonderland weddings... and there are festival weddings... but mash them both together and imagine everyone in attendance has dropped acid and you're maybe halfway there to how bonkers this wedding was! Their wedding photographer Lee Allen described it as the maddest wedding he's ever been involved with... and you know what, I can totally see why!

Tandem Photo

December 3, 2014

Sam and Mike got married in Vegas. They eloped and only told their parents they were doing it. Their friends had no idea, in fact they thought they'd gone to Greece on holiday! The couple didn't have any professional pictures taken of their Vegas elopement (they just snapped a few on their phones). When they returned home, they decided that they did really want to celebrate with their families too. So they decided to have a party in Manchester, with Tandem Photo there to capture the magic.
