UK Wedding Photography Trends for 2024
As we’re steaming ahead into 2024, I thought it’d be a cracking idea to talk about some of the top UK wedding trends that are shaping up to be all the rage. So, if you’re in the midst of planning your special wedding day, you might want to have a nosey at what’s hot.

Unplugged Weddings
First up, we’ve got the unplugged wedding. It’s all about ditching the tech and being present in the moment. Think of it – no phones, no tablets, just pure, unadulterated joy and togetherness. It means your guests are right there with you, soaking it all up, rather than watching through a 5-inch screen. Plus, it leaves all the photo magic to yours truly, ensuring those intimate moments are captured without a sea of smartphones in the backdrop.


Mid-Aisle Stop and Kiss
This one’s a heart-melter – the mid-aisle stop and kiss. Picture this: just after you’ve said your “I do’s”, you’re making your grand exit back up the aisle, and halfway through, you pause for a spontaneous kiss. It’s not just romantic; it’s a photographer’s dream! It captures the essence of your love and the joy of the moment in a beautifully unexpected way. Trust me, it makes for some stunning photos.


Pressed Flower Confetti
Moving on to the confetti toss – but with a twist. Pressed flower confetti is making a splash, and I’m all for it. It’s eco-friendly, looks bloomin’ beautiful, and gives a nod to those vintage vibes. Whether it’s roses, lavender, or a mix of your favourite blooms, this confetti adds a pop of natural colour and texture to your photos, not to mention it’s kinder to our planet.


Candid Photos
And lastly, the trend that’s close to my heart – more candid imagery. Couples are steering away from the overly posed shots and leaning into the real, raw, candid moments that truly tell the story of their day. It’s about capturing the laughter, the tears, the unexpected dance-offs, and those quiet, tender moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. As a photographer, it’s what I live for – those genuine expressions and unguarded moments that really showcase the spirit of your celebration.


So, there you have it, folks – a quick rundown of what’s set to be all the rage for weddings in 2024. Whether you’re all in for the unplugged vibe, fancy a mid-aisle smooch, are taken by the charm of pressed flower confetti, or are craving those candid shots, it’s all about making your day as unique and true to you as possible.
And remember, whatever trends you choose to embrace, the most important thing is that your day reflects you and your love story. I’ll be there, camera in hand, ready to capture it all – the laughs, the tears, and everything in between.
