A Wedding Day with a difference

Everyone deserves a have a truly lovely and special wedding day. Which is why I volunteered to do Emma's Hair and Makeup via Gift Of A Wedding, a charity who bring joy, love and happiness to those with a terminal or life-shortening illness. They do this by gifting weddings and vow renewals with the help of the generous wedding industry and gifted volunteers all around the UK.


Emma's Wedding also featured in a documentary by The Guardian. It tells the story of four special weddings around the world from the point of view of the bride. Featuring a British woman unsure of the future, a soldier discharged from Iraq, a high society Indian wedding and a rural Romanian celebration, this is what really happens behind the scenes on the wedding day

Emma and Mike live on a canal boat in London but Emma grew up in Devon so they choose the beautiful Huntsham Court for their wedding in April 2018. On the day Emma and Mike had a small army of suppliers and friends and family helping out with various bits.

The wedding morning was lovely, even the family dogs were attending!
A special and spectacular day, not least because of Emma’s dress and amazing flower crown! The wedding was photographed by Michael Riley Photography - Check out the photos on this blog.
