HOT TOPIC Local experts offer stellar advice on wedding dilemmas CAPTURING MEMORIES What are the benefits of hiring a videographer for our wedding day? Your special day is a sacred event, and a wedding film is a perfect way to document the day to look back on in years to come. Videography captures audible moments and timeless memories, such as your mum’s tearful words of wisdom before the ceremony or your father’s reaction to seeing you all dolled up. These are the memories you’ll cherish long after your wedding day, and a video will preserve them forever. If you ask almost any couple what they remember about their special day, they’ll most likely say it all went by so fast that most of it was just one big blur. You’ll both be preoccupied, so will inevitably miss out on some moments. By rewatching your wedding videos, you’ll be able to see all these special memories and won’t miss a thing. At the end of the day, when the cake is gone, the champagne bottles are empty, and the DJ/ band has gone home, all you’re left with are photos and videos. Re-live your day and see everyone’s expressions and hear their laughter – this is everything your videographer should offer. Megan Blatherwick | Memory Box Media www.memoryboxmedia.co.uk A PASSION FOR FASHION I have a pear-shaped figure. What style of dress do you recommend to show my shape off? We find that every bride looks different in each dress and wants to feel special. Some people like to embrace their shape and curves, while others want to disguise them. For us, it’s essential to help our bride find whatever shape makes her feel undoubtedly an elevated version of herself. For those wanting to show off their incredible shape, we would suggest a fit and flare gown with a Bardot line or some detail up top to balance the whole look. Then for the bride wanting to disguise her curves, opt for an A-line or fuller gown that cinches in at the waist for an hourglass silhouette.
