It’s amazing how much work goes into the preparation of the reception room. The bride & groom, the venue and perhaps a wedding planner / co-ordinator work together to ensure that all aspects of the venue convey the ambience and the general “look” of the wedding. The touches unique to each couple, the colour scheme, the favours, the table dressings all combine to make each wedding unique. As a photographer being hired to document the day, I always take a little time to capture these details, they might never make it into an album, but they are an intrinsic part of the day.
