Hi there, we are looking for info for a June 2025 wedding, with the ceremony and reception in the same location, prices and inclusions listed as I find most brochures do not include the prices. Ideally, we are looking for a cocktail style reception.
3 Bridesmaids and No Groomsmen! HELP
My future Husband does not want groomsmen, but I want my 3 bridesmaids. How do we orgnaise photos and seating plan without making it look weird?
Leonards Hill Estate
Hello Madeleine!
That sounds great - it's good to be different :) A photographer is best to answer your question about the photos, but maybe you can have photos of just you and your future husband on some shots, and then you alone and your bridesmaids in another?
With the seating plan, I would say to only have you and your future husband on a table by yourselves (if you like) or join everyone in a U-shape table setting, where you two will be at the top and your bridesmaids can sit next t you, as well as your family and friends, therefore, not making your bridesmaids a focus and it is more inclusive.
Hope that helps!
