“Drunk in Love” never looked so good ✨🥂
An LED neon sign is more than décor, it becomes part of your wedding atmosphere, your photos, and the memories your guests take home. From statement backdrops to dance floor moments, a custom sign adds personality, romance, and that extra glow every celebration deserves.
Whether it’s your new surname, favourite quote, or signature saying, your neon sign becomes one of the most photographed details of the day, and a keepsake you can display in your home long after the wedding is over 💍🤍
Because your love story deserves to shine.
I didn’t "quit" I just had to hit the reset button. 🔋
My last post here was on January 16th. Since then, my grid has been quiet, but my life has been anything but.
The truth? As a mum running two businesses, I hit a wall. Dealing with a flare-up of Adenomyosis and the resulting severe anemia meant my "battery" was sitting at 1%. I had to make the tough call to protect my energy for my family and my existing wedding clients at @april.ridge.photography
I’m sharing this because I know you’ve been there, too. Maybe it isn’t health for you. Maybe it’s a toddler who won’t sleep, a busy season in your "main" job, or just the sheer mental load of trying to do it all. We’ve all had those weeks where filming a Reel or posing for a photo feels like an impossible mountain to climb.
That is exactly why I created April Ridge Content. 📸
I don’t believe you should have to "hustle" through a flare-up or a family crisis just to stay visible. You need a Content Bank, a library of professional film and photos ready to go so your business keeps moving, even when you need to stop.
I want to capture you on the days you feel incredible, so that when life (or health) demands your attention elsewhere, your brand doesn't have to go dark.
I’m officially back in the studio, feeling much more like myself (mean girls t-shirt and all), and I’m ready to help you be seen, on your own terms.
Are you ready to build your own Content Bank? DM me "READY" and let’s chat about making your marketing life a whole lot easier.

Something very special is coming…
Next week, I will be featured in a national magazine sharing the heart behind my Makeup Therapy work — why I created it, who it’s for, and the women it’s helped rebuild confidence from the inside out.
This isn’t just about makeup.
It’s about healing, rediscovering yourself, and feeling like you again.
I feel incredibly grateful to have this conversation given a wider voice — and I can’t wait to share it with you.
Stay close, love M
🤍

💫SURPRISE SURPRISE! 💫 // Wedding ceremonies do not have to be predictable! I know many people feel have sat through what seems to be the same wedding ceremony many times. This is definitely not the case with wedding celebrant led ceremonies.
This lovely couple are so full of energy and an absolute joy to work with. A few days before the ceremony they decided they simply couldn’t choose who their witnesses would be ….so we opted for a little surprise.
We decided to plant secret envelopes under two of the seats and the lucky recipients were to have the honour of signing their wedding certificate. I must admit my heart sank a little bit when I saw there were seat covers - where there’s a will there’s a way! 💌
Before the signing of the wedding certificate, I invited all the guests look under their seat to see if they had the secret envelope. We ended up with two wonderful witnesses. We then conducted the signing accompanied by the amazing @samlewisband who invited the guests to singalong to one of my faves… McFly’s ‘It’s all about you’. It was such an amazing vibe. 🎶
There are so many elements you can weave into a Celebrant led wedding ceremony. You may come to me with ideas, but I’ve got plenty to offer you too! 😍
Traditional wedding ceremonies can be absolutely beautiful, but by adding just a little twist, you can make your wedding day unforgettable. Your wedding ceremony sets the tone of the rest of your celebration, so let’s start your day off in style. ⭐️

Video vs photo? Why not have both?!
I’ve always said, video brings your memories to life. Having both a videographer and photographer on your wedding day means you can capture every emotion, every moment for eternity.
And having two suppliers that work so well together, move and capturing in sync, means you can capture every moment from every angle perfectly.
