There's a special place in Lora and James's hearts for December 21st as it's the date James officially asked Lora out, and four years later on that same day he proposed. So of course it had to be their wedding day, too! They eloped on their fifth anniversary and married in Cornwall. The whole day was about them just being together and really feeling the love. Also there was a cat at their wedding, which we know you will just love!

Ed and Aileen

May 20, 2018

If this is how you do weddings in Chicago, I want in. Let me just list the boxes Brandi and David ticked on their incredible day: a romantic rooftop first look, getting hand tattoos in their hotel room, playing with smoke bombs against the backdrop of a spectacular rainbow, and their two pups were the ring bearer and flower girl! Then, as if that wasn't kickass enough, a week later the bride contacted photographers Ed and Aileen Photography to do a 'trash the dress' session, which took place in Lake Michigan on a 2°C day!

Violet and Jacob didn't choose the plant life, the plant life chose them. And that's why their super chilled Brighton wedding day was a totally vegan affair with tons of gorgeous donuts, pizzas and other goodies. They married in a low key, intimate ceremony with just 35 guests at Brighton Town Hall, with part one of their reception following in the coffee shop where they first met. By approaching their styling in a laidback way and their family and friends all pulling together to provide various services, they managed to create this gorgeous day for under £5,000.

Looby and Ryan's big day was not at all traditional but incredibly personal, and that's why we love it so much. The couple eloped to beautiful Cornwall, with a ceremony in a refurbished rustic barn with just the registrar and officiants as their witnesses, followed by their 'reception': A night in in a beautiful cottage at the venue. We love their whole attitude towards wedding planning and how true to themselves they stayed - Looby and Ryan, we salute you!

When we first laid eyes on these photos, we were convinced it must be a staged photo shoot, real weddings aren't this perfectly pretty are they? But no, this was Ashley and Graeme's actual wedding! They described their dreamy and intimate summer celebration as bright, colourful, fun and relaxed, with their inspiration coming from mermaids, unicorns, rainbows, and a whole lot of pretty.
