Caring, understanding, adaptable and the ceremony we dreamed of

James is a true professional. We needed an adapted wedding due to disability and nothing was too much trouble. James took the time to understand our needs and made thoughtful and considerate suggestions. He set expectations at the start, kept his promises and listened to our requirements. He helped to design an incredible ceremony which was everything we wanted and more. On the day he was punctual, sought out the wedding party to ensure everybody was comfortable and to answer any last minute questions. Thankyou James, it really couldn't have been any better.
