Lucy's Favourite Thing About Weddings:

Lucy’s favourite thing about the wedding industry is how creative it is.

 “Seeing new ideas that businesses and couples come up with for their weddings is so exciting.”

Lucy's Favourite Wedding Moment:

If she had to pick just one, her favourite wedding moment is the vow exchange - especially if the couple have written their own vows. Whether they are funny, romantic or a bit of both, this is such a special and sentimental moment.

Lucy's Best Piece of Wedding Advice:

Lucy’s best piece of wedding advice is to not put too much pressure on yourself or the day itself. 

“If you find yourself getting caught up and stressed about all the details, remember that you’re going to be surrounded by your favourite people and marrying the love of your life - that’s the most important part!”
