Questions/Considerations

1. Type of ceremony?

I.e. Humanist, Registrar, Religious etc.

2. How many guests are you having?

Day/Evening

3. Are you having any special wedding transport?

please provide as much detail as possible.

4. Do you have Bridesmaid(s)/Best Men/Usher(s)/Flower Girl(s)/Page Boy(s)?

Please provide list of names, and the nominated "Round up" people.

5. Are you having a wedding coordinator/Toast Master/Nominated person to organise?

6. Have you been notified of any restrictions around photography during the ceremony or reception?

7. Are you having a videographer?

If so it would be really great for us to know who they are so that we can make contact with them before the day and familiarise ourselves with their style etc.

8. Would you like to have photographs of the fake registry signing?

After the ceremony you will usually sign the register, we are not allowed to photograph the actual signing due to the data protection act. however after the signing I will be called forward to photograph a mock signing, you will be given a fake pen and book to pretend to sign while I take a few photos of you then with your witnesses, please let me know if you would like this to happen.

9. Would you like to do a confetti shot?

If this is a yes just a few things to consider, firstly hardly anybody brings confetti to weddings anymore so you will need to provide this, also there is no such thing as too much confetti so gets lots! Its also worth thinking about if you want to do this "Live" as you leave the ceremony. Or if you want us to set this up for you, we can get everyone to line up either side of the exit or nominated area and you can walk through. Or you may want to do this on the dance floor with confetti canons during your first dance. What ever you decide please could you provide full details:

10. Are you having Sparklers or Fireworks?

If so what time will these happen?

11. Do you have any guests with limited mobility?

12. Would you like static photos of the dress, shoes and Accessories?

To save time please have these items ready to photography for my arrival, think about the hanger you use, please also consider the light in the room you're getting ready in, as much natural light as possible would be great!

13. will you be exchanging gifts on the day?

If so would you like these photographed?

14. Is there any sensitive issues or family dynamics I should be aware of?

15. Would you like formal group photos or would you like all natural documentary style?

These are the posed formal pictures of your different family and friend combinations, the kind of photo you put on the mantelpiece. If you do decide to have these we recommend to try to keep this to under 10 photographs as each one can take at least 5 minutes to setup and photograph. We usually try to do this during drinks/canapes after the ceremony. It would be great if you could nominate a few members of the wedding party to round up the different people ready for the next photo to speed up the whole process and not take up to much of your day. Please see the section at the end of the form for the list.

16. Would you like a group shot of everyone? and if so is there a window or high location where I can take this picture from?

If so is there a window/wall/balcony at the venue where I can take this photo from above?

17. What Entertainment are you having?

18. Will you kindly be providing us with a hot meal on the day?

If we are with you for more than 5 hours we really will need to eat. It is a high energy job and it can be a long day, so we will need to refuel at some point. It is always useful for us to know before the day if any provisions have been made for us. We try to eat at the same time as you, so we don't miss anything. Kelly doesn't eat any meat except for chicken and fish, but as that can be tricky happy to be put down as a veggie, Nathan eats pretty much anything. So we know what to expect or prepare for on the day, it would be great if you could indicate below by selecting the appropriate options.

Hot meals will be provided at the guests table.

Hot meals will be provided in a separate room.

We should arrange to leave the venue for 1 hour.

Soft drinks are provided.

You are welcome to help yourself to the evening buffet/BBQ
