A Weymouth beach wedding with hundreds of unexpected guests who erupted with applause✨💖

The hype for this wedding was unreal, and I’m not just talking about Lou, Mike and their amazing guests!

On 6th August, Weymouth Beach became the most unexpected wedding audience. With the brides beautiful arrival by the land train, Beachgoers couldn’t help but get caught up in the excitement, watching from their deckchairs, smiling, cheering and soaking up the atmosphere. Even children were putting down their buckets and spades to watch what was happening. For a little while, everyone became part of the story. 🥹

And what a gorgeous story it was.
There’s something magical about saying your vows with the sea behind you and the sand beneath your feet.
For Lou and Mike, this wasn’t just any beach.
This stretch of Weymouth holds so many precious memories for them and now, it holds one of the most important memories of all. The beginning of their next chapter. ❤️

And of course, the celebrations didn’t end when we left the beach!
The party continued at the incredible where John from kept the celebrations going, with our sweet treats, beach games from the Weymouth beach team, a gorgeous first dance and a room full of family and friends who were VERY ready to celebrate the newlyweds.

We feel so lucky to have shared in this unique and magical day. It was also a true pleasure working alongside the Weymouth events team who ensured everything was set up and ran smoothly. What an awesome team!

We look forward to seeing the professional pics from .photography

One whole year of our Photo Booth being part of our wedding family… and honestly, I never expected to love it this much. Here’s some of the best bits! 💖

I thought I had found my dream job conducting ceremonies and I absolutely have but little did I know that adding the Photobooth would create even more fun and happiness long after the ceremony ends. I am living my best life. 💖

A year ago, after finishing a ceremony, I’d usually head home, kick off my shoes and occasionally pour a glass of wine.

Now? I’m usually still out at midnight, standing beside a Photo Booth while someone’s grandma is wearing a feather boa, the bridesmaids are pulling their best crazy poses, and someone’s uncle has somehow ended up in a Viking helmet.
And I wouldn’t change it for the world!

There is something so amazing about seeing people let their hair down, laugh until they cry, squeeze into photos with their favourite people and create memories they’ll treasure forever. It’s often the place where the loudest laughter happens and the happiness is contagious.

Over the last year, our Photo Booth has been everywhere, weddings, parties, proms, wedding fairs, Christmas events, rugby award nights, and even the Devon County Show supporting Children’s Hospice South West.

A year on, I can honestly say adding the Photo Booth to the wedding services alongside my husband was one of the best decisions we’ve made. We’ve been to some incredible venues and met some amazing people along the way. Here’s to many more years of laughter, memories and the best kind of carnage and chaotic group photos! ❤️

These guests must have got their cardio in for a whole month on that dance floor! 🤩

It was ON FIRE! 🔥 From the moment the music started, it was non-stop energy, the loudest singalongs, crowd surfing and the best kind of chaos.

And when guests needed a breather it was straight into the Photo Booth for lots of laughter with some questionable props choices ofcourse! 📸😂

Working alongside was an absolute pleasure, they certainly keep the party alive all night long.

✨ was the dream backdrop for this incredible celebration, beautifully hosted by Laura and the team. Every detail was nothing short of perfect.

My favourite part was seeing the incredible love and happiness that surrounded this gorgeous couple. Congratulations Charlie and Molly. You make the most amazing couple. Thank you for choosing me to be part of your day.

Some weddings stay with you forever... and Nathan & Amber’s at will definitely be one of them. 🤍
Beautifully styled by the couple themselves, with the most incredible backdrop, it was the perfect setting for one unforgettable celebration.
Something i personally loved was the wedding cake piñata! 🎉🍰 Such a fun, unique idea that had everyone laughing & cheering!
Our disco and Photobooth combo was an absolute hit too. Pink Barbie hats, crazy glasses, Mexican sombreros, llama heads, dance-offs with some awesome and questionable dance moves, I don’t think Berry Head Hotel knew what had hit it! 😂

Nathan & Amber, thank you for letting us be part of such a fun, vibrant day. Congratulations to you both.

The Okehampton College Prom at was epic from start to finish!

From the moment everyone started arriving, the atmosphere was incredible. It didn’t matter whether they turned up in a supercar, a tractor, or anything in between... every single arrival was met with the biggest cheers! The support, and genuine excitement for one another was so lovely to see.

Higher Beardon made the perfect venue for a celebration like no other. The setting was amazing, Dena and her team made everything flow seamlessly as always, the dance floor was packed, and there were smiles everywhere you looked.

The photo booth was a huge hit too, with plenty of laughter, silly poses and memories captured to look back on for years to come. 📸✨

Most of all, myself and John at just want to say what an absolute credit you all are. Such polite, kind and amazing young people. It was a genuine pleasure to be part of your celebrations and help make your prom one to remember.

Here’s to the Class of ‘26! Wishing each and every one of you the very best for whatever adventure comes next. Go and make your mark on the world! ❤️

1 8 years together.
10 years married.
3 beautiful children.
And still looking at each other like they’re right back at the beginning. ❤️

Some love stories don’t just deserve celebrating once!
The excitement for Steph & Will’s vow renewal has been building for four years since our very first conversation about this day, right through to finally watching it all unfold and somehow, it was even more beautiful than imagined.

It was those simple messages between Steph and Will “Are you coming out tonight?” that turned into an incredible love story filled with countless adventures, endless laughter, deep friendship and a life built completely around love.

What made this day so special wasn’t just the celebration of their marriage, but the people surrounding them. It was impossible not to notice how deeply loved Steph & Will are. There were happy tears, many hugs, uncontrollable laughter and a dancefloor full of people who have stood proudly beside them through every chapter.

Steph & Will have created something truly special together.
What a privilege it was to share their story, one still being written and celebrated in the best possible way. ✨

made the perfect setting for this extraordinary day. I can’t wait to see the professional photos and video from and What a dream team! 💖

I’m still smiling after this incredible wedding . The vibe was absolutely off the scale ✨

From the moment the music started, the dance floor was packed, guests were up all night thanks to the amazing band and Jonathan bringing nonstop energy.
Cocktails were flowing while the photobooth captured some hilarious moments; so many brilliant poses and belly laughs throughout the evening. I lost count of how many times people said “I absolutely love this”. It’s the best feeling seeing people have fun.

A special mention to Dena and her wonderful team, who made everything feel effortless and ensured every single guest was well looked after.

Such a beautiful venue, an electric atmosphere, and one of those weddings you just don’t want to end 💖 Congratulations to the lovely Dee and Daz.

Have you ever been in a room where the energy is so high, there is an incredible buzz and you see happiness radiate from people when they talk.

That’s exactly what the networking evening organised by the fantastic at felt like.

A room full of incredibly talented wedding suppliers, many I’m lucky enough to already know, and many I’d love to get to know more. I have so much admiration for people who are truly passionate about what they do, and seeing so many like-minded people in one place, chatting about their businesses, making new connections, and catching up, was such an amazing feeling.

The world of weddings really is something special, and tonight was a beautiful celebration of the privilege we all share in being part of it.

It was great to catch up with . .with.lisa

Fantastic to meet , and The Devon Chauffeur . I wish I could have spoken to more people. 💖

Saturday was truly something special 💍✨

I had the absolute pleasure of providing wedding décor and a photobooth ( )for the wonderful Lee and Diane at Esplanade Hotel and what an amazing celebration it was. The happiness they’ve found in each other is clear for all to see, it’s impossible not to feel happy for them.

Honestly, you can’t spend even five minutes with these two without ending up laughing. Their joy is infectious, and it set the tone for an unforgettable day filled with love, laughter, and so many meaningful moments.

From the décor in keeping with their theme to a photobooth that stayed busy all night long, capturing everything from the sweetest smiles to the most hilarious snaps, it was incredible to see guests fully immersed in the fun and celebration.

Lee and Diane, thank you for letting me be part of such a magical day. Wishing you a lifetime filled with love, plenty of laughter and endless happiness 💖
