Natalie Ray from Platinum Sox love the image her photographer Melanie Chadd captured, “This photograph captures the spirit of both my wedding and my photographer. Mel has been a good friend of mine for many years and I always encouraged her love of photography because I could see that she had such an amazing talent for it. When she finally took the plunge and became a professional photographer, I was honoured that she agreed to photograph my wedding. These days, Mel is an acclaimed photographer in Perthshire, Scotland. So looking back at this photo I think fondly about our amazing day in the spectacular setting of Avoncroft museum. It captures the fun of the day with my husband and brother celebrating together. It also reminds me of how lucky I was to have one of my best friends photograph my wedding and capture the spirit of it in a way that nobody else could have achieved.”

Ben and Sarah McDermott met through a shared love of horses. So when it came to planning their special day, the animal-mad asked equine photographer Sue Westwood-Ruttledge from The Equestrian Bride, to do the honours.“Our animals are such a big part of our life, it seemed wrong not to have them involved in our special day,” explains Sarah. “We know Sue as we keep our horses in the same yard, and when we discovered she was a specialist horse and dog photographer it seemed like the right thing to do.”Sue said: “I thought it was a lovely idea to involve their animals in this way on their wedding day and their guests were very understanding. As an equine and canine photographer, I completely understand how big a part people’s pets play in their lives. I’m completely potty about my horse and dogs too.”Friends and family obligingly took snaps of the wedding throughout the service and reception, so the whole day was recorded for posterity. But the official wedding photographs take pride of place around the house.
 Alys Bryan, from Olive Living shares her special memories of her day and credits Blush Photography with their beautiful wedding photo. Blush Photography capture couples happy days in the sunny Algarve in Portugal. Nickie Davis who runs Blush Photography got married in the Algarve herself and captures natural shots throughout a wedding day to provide the couple with photos to cherish. Alys shares her thoughts on her special day; “we celebrated our wedding day with 24 family members and close friends, we were thrilled to share our experience with those closest to us. This photograph captured a quiet moment we shared together, one of very few moments in the day that we were alone, and a moment where we understood the commitment we had made to enjoy our lives together.”Getting married abroad really adds to making the day extra. Your wedding day will always be a day to remember but getting married abroad will help to make the day even more memorable. Whether you choose a location abroad that’s special to you or you choose a destination you’ve always wanted to visit it’ll be a day to remember regardless. If you choose to get married in a hotel abroad then it’s likely they’ll already have a photographer they regularly use, but there will also be plenty of freelance photographers who work in this industry abroad. |  Anneliese Szczygielski from Grown Up Glamour shares her thoughts on her big day. |
