Should we provide you with a meal?
Capturing your wedding day involves a lot of running around and managing emotions - we appreciate that you will provide us with a meal and somewhere to sit and catch our breath. We don't mind sitting at a guest table or with the other suppliers.

This depends on the package you have booked - refer back to your contract for more details regarding what is included in the package you have booked.
Can we upgrade our package?
Absolutely! You can upgrade your package at any time, as long as it's at least one month before the wedding so that we can make the necessary arrangements.
The same goes for any Optional Extras - we need to know by the time we have our Final Meeting if you want to add anything (i.e. extra hours, video edits, etc.)
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to deliver extra items if asked on or after the wedding day.
