PHOTOSHOOT

‘Beauty, glamour, intimacy and sweet solitude’

For so many couples the seating plan is one of the most stressful parts of their wedding planning journey. With dozens of guests to accommodate, trying to ‘please’ everyone is almost impossible, and for many, the traditional top table seating plan does not work for them and their families. Add to that stepparents, more than one best man, family feuds and possibly the consideration of children, couples are increasingly seeking an alternative.

Sweetheart Style

This recent styled shoot, coordinated by Amy Bailey, founder of wedding planning business Amy Lauren Weddings, demonstrates how couples can combat this common conundrum with a sweetheart table – a small table set up for just the bride & groom.

BELLE LOVES:

Focussed around beauty, glamour, intimacy and sweet solitude, the shoot at Leadenham Estate highlights the beauty and appeal of a sweetheart table as an amazing alternative to a traditional top table, showing the couple together, sharing intimate moments that are sometimes lost when shared on a traditional top table.

“The sweetheart table is one of my favourite ‘go-to’ golden tips as it means separating yourselves from the situation and avoiding any awkward decisions on who does and doesn’t sit on the top table with you,” advises Amy.

Better Together

“We wanted to ensure that we worked with clever camera angles, whilst embracing inclusiveness and celebrating the love and gorgeousness of the couple (who are actually married in real life!). One of the most common points couples highlight after their wedding day is that they didn’t get to share special intimate moments with one another as much as they’d wished.

“Although the day centred around them as a couple, they were pulled in so many differing directions while socialising with guests, that they missed out on taking time to celebrate their moment together.”

BY HAVING A SWEETHEART TABLE, THE COUPLE CAN SPEND THOSE SPECIAL MOMENTS TOGETHER OVER DINNER WHILE ALSO BEING PRESENT WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
