Editor loves and inspiration

Over in Hot Topic in the Jun/Jul25 issue, Hannah Tunnicliffe from Han Picked Memories (www.hanpickedmemories.co.uk) tells us how help is at hand if you simply can't wait for your wedding photos!

Yes, there is a great solution if you'd like to share high-quality photos and even videos the day after your wedding, and that's hiring a wedding day content creator to be part of your wedding team!

Planning a wedding is a commitment like no other, you enter a world only you and the close people around you discover together. Every single aspect of your wedding day has been brought to life through your hard work and dedication, so this absolutely needs to be documented and remembered forever.

I've been capturing content for couples since 2023 and fully appreciate the effort that goes into planning a wedding. For me, no detail goes unnoticed, so the ultimate reward for all this hard work is to make sure it's all captured and digitally stored safely to be able to look back on forever and remember the special memories from the day. As your wedding content creator, I can allow you to enjoy your day and be totally present in the moment, while I creatively capture your day using the latest iPhone and supporting tech equipment. You will wake up the next day as a newly married couple being able to look through an entire album full of beautifully captured moments. These will be raw, unedited photos and videos to share with loved ones and edit how you wish to be able to share on social media. Just knowing you've added this service onto your wedding day, gives you the peace of mind that your love story can be shared with your family and friends right away. With a content creator behind the scenes you'll have memories that'll never fade.

With modern weddings being all about personalisation, we asked the experts for their top tips on personalising your wedding feast...

“As a completely bespoke caterer, the short answer is: however you like,” Steven Sanger from Taste Caterer (https://tastecaterer.com) says. “Whether you're dreaming of a Mexican-Japanese fusion or a classic Taste feast, we'll make it happen.

“We work closely with each couple to create a menu that refl ects their favourite foods, stories, and style. No stress over dietary needs either, we do those on top! Our standard service includes a choice of three starters, three mains, and two desserts, so every guest has something they'll love. It's your day, your way and the food should be too.”

Yaz from Circa Events (https://circacirca.com) says, “Personalising your wedding food is a brilliant way to add a touch of you to the day. While our menus are carefully curated to offer crowd-pleasing favourites ike wood-fired pizzas and gourmet street food, we give couples the opportunity to add finishing touches that make it personal.

“From renaming pizzas to reflect your love story (the cheesier the better) to signage, toppings, or flavours that nod to special memories, there are lots of little ways to add meaning. It's those details that turn great food into a great talking point!

“We work closely with couples to make sure their menu reflects their story, whether it's themed pizzas, bespoke street food combinations, or even matching fl avours to a memory or holiday. Your wedding food should feel like you – quirky, classic, romantic, or spicy.”
