It’s exposed. You’re out on the water with nothing to stop the wind. Veils go everywhere, which looks great in photos, but bring a coat for the winter months and maybe some hairspray.
The church is small. Keep that in mind for guest numbers, and for where the photographer stands. I’ll work quietly round the edges rather than block anyone’s view.
Plan the gap. The reception is always somewhere else, so build in time between the two. A few minutes on the embankment with the church behind you is worth every second, and it’s the shot most couples here want.
Winter light goes early. For a December wedding, an earlier ceremony means you still have daylight for photos by the water afterwards.
