A space where you can meet incredible wedding professionals face to face, gather inspiration, and start building your dream team with confidence. If you’re planning your wedding, this is your invitation to slow down, explore, and connect with the people who could be part of your day. 📍 Sweethome Weddings, Eston 📅 17 May 2026 ⏰ 10:00 - 15:00 We’ll be there - come say hi and let’s talk about your story 🤍

Cam & Jen ✨ What a day. I met Cam & Jen on the dance floor at a wedding over a year ago… and honestly, not much has changed 😄 just that this time, they were the ones getting married. The same energy, the same chaos (the good kind), and a whole lot of love in between. Such a joy to document a day that felt this real and this fun. Also - had to borrow Jen’s vendor shoutouts because I love the little side notes.

Harry & Cheney ✨ New Year. New chapter. 🤍 Harry & Cheney said “I do” surrounded by the lush gardens of Brahman Hills - a beautiful fusion of a South African bride and her American groom. As 2025 gave way to 2026, they stepped into the new year hand in hand… and what a celebration it was. We stayed up the whole night, soaking in every moment - the laughter, the energy, the dance floor that never slowed down. The kind of wedding you don’t just capture… you feel. Here’s to love that crosses oceans, and a start to forever that no one will forget.
