Frequently Asked Questions
I do have a bit of a fun questionnaire for you to complete with your partner! This helps me learn a bit more about what’s important to you. But more importantly, there will be things I pick up on when we catch up for planning. I listen to you, I listen to your plans, I will give appropriate suggestions. I'm happy to share what might work and what might not in order to get to a position that feels right for you. When creating the ceremony content, I aim for a good mix of the "awww" moments and the giggle moments (never gimmicky) - doing this gives you a great reflection of your relationship, whilst also keeping you relaxed and getting those genuine candid moments for your images of the day.
There's very little content, aside from the legal components, that I rinse and repeat. Your relationship, your story is unique and deserves to be told differently to someone else's story. That's what I love about weddings - every ceremony is different.
Absolutely! It’s always wonderful sentimental value as well as fabulous photo opportunities to have your children included. There’s a few ways we can do this, and my job is to help find the right way that makes both you and your children comfortable.
No. I find AI to often be quite generic and impersonal. That’s not the feel I want to deliver for your wedding day. I’ve always loved writing, and have over 20 years of experience writing and delivering presentations and ceremonies. Writing is such a skill and it brings me so much enjoyment to tell a couple's story. As a result, this is one area where I think human skill outweighs the value of AI. I love what AI technology can do in society, but not every task is suitable for AI, including writing a wedding ceremony, in my opinion and experience.
There’s lots of ways to include some additional elements in your ceremony to represent things that are important to you. In fact, this is one of the things we go through in order to make sure that your ceremony is uniquely representative of you, your partner and your relationship. That might be including children, giving a role or a moment to acknowledge parents or VIPs in your lives, a small gift to each other, a quick celebration in memory of those who can’t be there on the day, ways to make any online guest feel included – there’s so many options to help include elements of sentimental value to you, and we run through the relevant options to you as part of the planning process.
I definitely can if you need some help! Some people know what to say but aren’t sure how to craft the words into something that feels like vows. Some people get writers block. I’ve got some techniques to help you, and some wonderful couples who have kindly agreed for their vows to be shared, so you’ve got some real examples to review. I’m also happy to review your vows for you and give you feedback – it can sometimes be a little awkward if one of you has written 3 paragraphs and the other one of you has written 3 sentences…! So I’m happy to make some discreet suggestions to help ensure they’re similar in length, but still your own genuine words.
Oh definitely. I want to make sure that you’re happy with the content! I’d like to think I get it right the first time most of the time, but if things change or if you want someone specific mentioned or some particular changes made, that’s no problem at all. It’s important to me that you’re happy with the script and that it reflects your relationship and adds to the feel that you want to create on your special day.
