The Wedding Reporter ~ 50% Discount For Readers…

"A wedding report is an extra layer of texture to the memories of a wedding day ~ There is no greater love story than two people publicly devoting themselves to each other for the rest of their lives, and I feel privileged to witness that and try to put it into words…"

I love hearing stories about Brides who have discovered a creative passion through planning their wedding, and who have gone on to do something positive with what it.  It is entirely the reason this very Wedding Blog was born. In the fifteen months I spent planning my wedding, I discovered a passion for all things nuptial; researching for new finds and writing about them, sharing with new friends and contacts online.

A similar journey of discovery and realising what really made her happy happened to my lovely friend and Wedding Day Journalist, Emma Woodhouse too.  Emma is in the process of launching her new business 'The Wedding Reporter' – a brand new bespoke wedding service, that offers discerning brides and grooms the opportunity to have a literary legacy of their wedding as an additional keepsake of their memories. A book, if you will, that documents their wedding day in words, rather than photographs…

"I've been writing stories ever since I could hold a pencil. I love putting words together that best describe an event or capture an emotion, whether that be in short stories, playwriting, or epic fiction. It was only when I got married that I realised a wedding day is an absolute myriad of thoughts, feelings and tiny instances that are just too delicious to be able to truly savour entirely at the time.

I wrote my own wedding report knowing that literature was the only way to capture possibly the most exciting, chaotic, emotional and beautiful event in any couple's lives…"

I just love the notion of capturing your wedding day in writing. I did exactly the same for my wedding – sharing my wedding over a series of posts on the You & Your Wedding ForumInfact, it was the thousands of readers and many compliments I received that part prompted me to take up blogging – but that is an aside, the point I want to make is how relieved and grateful I feel I am that I actually took the time to write down my wedding day experience, so that I can share it one day in the future with my children.  Had I known about Emma's brilliant service back in 2009, I'd not have hesitated for a moment in asking her to document my own wedding…

"'The Wedding Reporter' evolved from a combined love of writing and a passion for all things matrimonial. After an unprecedented wave of support from the online wedding community about the initial concept, it appeared that the market was ready for someone to go to the wedding frontline and put pen to paper. 

In a world now saturated with images, a wedding report offers the chance to step back from the aesthetic of your wedding day and focus on the action, the atmosphere and the moments you might otherwise forget in due course…"

A gorgeous example of Emma's work is available via her Blog, where she summarises the wedding of Photographer Emily Quinton, whose wedding took place earlier this month…

"I knew that Emily and Stef were going to have an epic wedding as soon as she mentioned that it was a four day long festival. Little did I realise that they were also planning an absolute dream for a writer with a whole host of details to feast on and enough emotion to leave my heart pounding for days after their wedding!

Since there was so much to take in I was very happy to sit around the campfire with my notebook whilst everyone else was eating and frantically scribble down everything I had seen, heard, felt, smelt and experienced. Also, because it was such a personal wedding with a very Great British attitude of everyone pitching in to help out, I felt like I personally got to know a lot of Emily and Stef's family and friends which in turn helped to build up my overall picture of their wedding, and enhance their report.

My main objective in writing Emily and Stef's colours of the day…"
