Louise & Christian’s wedding at Dillington Estate was packed with meaning, joy, and golden-hour magic, so I was genuinely chuffed to see it featured on Rock My Wedding. With cowboy boots, singing in Te Reo Māori, handwritten notes to every guest, and a storm-clearing sunset moment in the fields, this day was anything but ordinary. It was heartfelt, personal, and full of personality from start to finish. Being part of it was such a privilege, and having it shared on a platform I’ve admired for years made it all the more special. A wedding I won’t forget anytime soon.

Lucy and Jay’s Eastwood Park wedding was everything you’d want in an autumn celebration, fun, relaxed, and packed with personality. From personal vows and American football banter to windy portraits and a buzzing dance floor, this day had me smiling from start to finish. The venue looked stunning in full autumn colour, and the day flowed effortlessly thanks to Lucy’s spot-on planning. It was one of those weddings that just felt good to be part of. Jucy, you nailed it.

Matthew and Michaela’s wedding at The Mill House on the Isle of Man was one of those unforgettable days, full of heart, laughter, and a touch of golden hour magic. From a rainy start to a joy-filled dance floor, the whole celebration was relaxed, emotional, and full of meaning. Their daughter Wren was right at the heart of it all, making the day feel even more personal. For me, reconnecting with Matthew after 18 years made it even more special. This wasn’t just a wedding, it was a story, and I’m so grateful to have been part of it.

Samantha and Mike’s wedding at The Hawke Barn was one of those feel-good countryside celebrations that just flowed. From emotional moments during the ceremony to a gin and rum bar that got everyone chatting, the whole day had this warm, relaxed energy. Even the unpredictable weather played along, giving us a golden window for portraits and a buzz in the air. Add in heartfelt speeches, a playlist of ABBA and Beatles, and big laughs all around, and it was a day I won’t forget anytime soon. Honestly, it was such a joy to be there.

Michelle and Andy’s summer wedding at Crowcombe Court was full of heart, laughter, and golden evening light. From emotional vows to hilarious speeches and a buzzing Mr & Mrs game, every part of the day felt genuinely personal and full of energy. Even with 30-degree heat, everyone leaned into the celebration with joy and love. The venue looked incredible in the sunshine, and the late summer light gave us the dreamiest portraits. It was the kind of day I’ll be thinking about for a long time.
