Embrace the Rain On Your Wedding Day with Stylish Wedding Umbrellas

Planning a summer wedding in the UK? The unpredictable British weather can be a challenge, but with a little preparation, you can ensure your day goes smoothly. Embrace the rain for stunning photos, invest in clear or white umbrellas, and avoid the cheapest options to prevent mishaps. Plan ahead, and enjoy a beautiful wedding day, rain or shine!

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if it rains on my wedding day?

Embrace the rain and let your photographer and videographer capture stunning, unique shots. Use clear or white umbrellas to keep dry while ensuring your photos look fantastic.

Why should I avoid patterned or coloured umbrellas?

Patterned or coloured umbrellas can cast unflattering colours on your face and dress, and they can be distracting in photos and videos. Clear or plain white umbrellas are less obtrusive and let the light through beautifully.

How many umbrellas should I get for my wedding?

At a minimum, get umbrellas for the wedding couple. For extra coverage, consider providing them for the entire wedding party. It’s always better to have more than you think you’ll need.

Are there any specific features I should look for in wedding umbrellas?

Choose clear or white umbrellas with minimal trim to ensure they don’t cast shadows or distract from the photos. Avoid the cheapest options and test them before the big day to ensure they won’t fail.

What if I want my wedding to have a specific colour theme?

While it might be tempting to match umbrellas to your wedding colours, it’s best to stick with clear or white options for photos. If you really want to incorporate your theme, consider using coloured umbrellas in other decorative areas, not in the photos.

Investment

I film a limited number of weddings each year so I can give each one proper time in planning, filming and the edit.

My standacollections are set up for larger, family-centred days and full weekend celebrations, where film is a key part of the budget and the experience.

I work with a limited number of couples each year to allow every film the time and attention it requires. If you are planning a wedding where the atmosphere, relationships, and story of the day matter deeply to you, I would be glad to hear about your plans.

Please share a few details about yourselves, your date, and your venue using the enquiry form. I personally review every enquiry and will reply to confirm availability and arrange a relaxed call to learn more about your plans and what matters most to you.

There is no pressure or expectation. The conversation is simply a chance to explore whether my approach feels right for your wedding.
