For vlogging your wedding day, you can now get a “wedding content creator” to come along for the day so that may be a good option!
I can’t wait to watch this series! It must be so special for you both. How exciting!!💒🥰
As a beauty therapist/ Mua myself working in a salon, I would definitely book hair and makeup a lot earlier than your plan xx
Try and work on Jamie for a Christmas wedding, I got married on 20th and it was so magical. My littlest bridesmaid carried a wreath instead of flowers 🥹
I’m already married but still wanted to start the wedding journey with you. A couple of things from me: Book everything date specific first - venue, photographer, hair and make up person - all the people who need to be available on the actual date. Photographer I would say is the big one! Photographer - consider having one where there is a couple of people working as a team - then you can have someone with you and Jamie in the morning! Plus you get more pics and if something does happen to one person u still have a photographer! The other thing you need to do is book the registrar - book early so you get the time you want. You can’t get married without the registrar! And they can only do a certain number of weddings at one time. Hope that helps!! Xx
watched this episode when you first released it and remember thinking how excited I was for you - fast forward a month, I was proposed too on the weekend and now come back to re-watch and being able to relate! Cannot wait for the other episodes🤍💒
For traditions - we included hand fasting in our ceremony using beautiful ribbons, we had each of our parents drape one over to tie our hands together then we pulled the knot and it symbolises the joining of two families and you're left with a beautiful ribbon that you can store or display at home! There's also sand mixing which is where you have a jar that you'll display in your home and you each (and Noah/other family members) take turns pouring sand in and it symbolises the blending of a new family and is a lovely keepsake! We wrote cards to each other that we opened the morning of the wedding and then we bought pretty vow books on Etsy and we display them in a glass box in our liviing room now, really nice to be able to go and read through them again every so often and brings so much joy!
We got married at the end of covid so speaking from experience, it is most important to have a rough number of guests and budget then all the fun stuff can begin. Love the mood board and to do list.....enjoy x
So excited for this series!! I got married in early September, I love autumn and got married in a manor house with beautiful gardens, it was still warm and was a sunny day, but because it was the start of autumn, we had the most stunning golden sunset for photos! We booked ours with 18 months to go and we're coming up to our 5th anniversary already! As soon as the planning starts the time absolutely flies! My wedding planner/diary was an absolute godsend to keep track of everything, keep receipts, phone numbers, wedding fair info ect. My friends helped me too, we had a group chat for photos/ideas for table decor/flowers ect, I was very lucky as my best friend made our wedding cake and another friend did all our flowers/my bouquet/button holes ect, so if you have any friends who can bake/do flowers/make invites, it will save you loads more money too. Also go to lots of wedding fairs for inspiration and ideas! So looking forward to this series! Enjoy every minute, i loved planning mine so much! 🥰 x
Didn’t you want a church wedding anymore? I remember ages ago you said you’d love a church wedding in your local church also we got married in November, if you’re looking for a DJ we used “digital roadshow” which is located in kings Lynn which was amazing, it made the wedding so special. (They also do the LED light up letters if that’s something you were interested in?) We also hired a Photo Booth which everyone loved and made the night extra special! I wish we was friends as I have sooo much I could tell you and places to recommend as I live in the Norfolk area too! Your day will be amazing regardless… so exciting 🤍
I got married in May and each bridesmaid wore a pastel dress because of spring..pink..baby yellow..lavender and baby blue and light green
Such perfect timing.. I’ve been with my partner for nearly 8 years and we have a little boy together. We booked a Disney Cruise a couple of weeks ago and have since decided we are going to elope and include the cruise as part of the wedding and honeymoon. Now I’m in the process of planning what we are wearing etc… I’m so excited! Watching you plan your wedding is going to be so much fun!
There are places where you can do winter Hen party with snuggle socks and cocoa bar..also it's cool to give anniversary gifts to each other for what each year represents..1st year is paper..so maybe concert tickets or plane tickets or love letters..
Oooooh my gosh, I can't wait to marathon this wedding series 💗 Oh Gemma, so happy about you.
Hi Gemma, I’m soooo excited for you both ❤️ I got married 18 years ago now and both our children (who were little at the time)were there to share it with us. We got married on the 18th December with a huge Christmas tree in the corner. We only had 12 guests to the ceremony. Lit by candlelight and a big party in the evening! Whatever you choose it will be fabulous! Much love to you both ❤ xxx
We got married in January! We saved the top tier of our wedding cake and have it frozen. We will take it out and eat it on our first year wedding anniversary! Can’t wait for the rest of your wedding series love it!! X
How exciting for you! I am getting married in about a month and honestly, the time goes so quickly between booking the venue and saving the date to the wedding day. A to-do list was so so helpful. Enjoy every moment of it! X
I love this; I'm going to be living through this series! I was meant to get married December 2020, but COVID! (Christmas wedding) we then planned for December 2021. The day arrived that we were due to give notice and he backed out. We split up and ended back together and then re-arranged for December 2022! I had my hen night this time and a week later, he changed his mind again! I've had my wedding dress since 2020 and I paid for absolutely everything. I'm £4k out of pocket and still not married...

Omg 😮 you dodged a bullet
We got married in 2018 and we did a lot of things ourselves I did the centre pieces, sweet table brought the sweets from costco I did the table seating sign. Saves a lot of money. Can’t wait to see where u get married x x
eucalyptus is a sage green and it lasts a long time without drooping you could have it in your bouquet and follow through in the arrangements on the tables and venue
Gemma I haven’t watched you for a while put this was sooo refreshing. You embody what life is really about! Enjoying the smaller things which really are the big things!
So excited for you and Jamie!!!!!! I am so looking forward to going on your wedding journey with you. Perhaps, I am one of your older viewers having been married for going on 18 years. We married at our house with just a small group of family and friends. Your love for each other is so special and very evident. Treasure the journey, have fun, and let your joy for each other shine through! God bless you both and Noah!!!
So excited to watch this - I am going to a wedding today!!! 💕🥂 Thanks Gemma for sharing the excitement with us, I love all your content but this is going to be PHENOMENAL I’m sure 🥰
Thank you Guys, so much, for sharing your wedding journey. Your “Day” will be beautiful!
September is the perfect month to get married!! It's the month I got married to my best friend and we've been happy and in love for years. The only drawback is having our Anniversary in September as our kids go back to school! We had a Wedding Journal together. We wrote our thoughts and love notes to each other in the months leading up to our wedding. I love reading our journal through the years. Best of luck to my favorite family 💞
Your wedding is going to be amazing. I know it before we even see it. It would be exactly what I think a perfect wedding in my mind would be cozy,barn,lights,flowers,colours. Cant wait to see all the videos.
How exciting is this going to be. Can’t wait to see what you decide on for all the different steps on your mood board. You are going to make such a stunningly beautiful bride xx
I'm so excited for this series ❤ I get married in September so have 5 months to go and as an ex wedding planner I'm at as in order as I should be 🤣 I make wedding stationery as a small business so I'm just starting my time line of the day and table names ❤ honestly enjoy it, as it truly does fly past x
I can’t believe you guys are finally getting married! 🤩 I’m super excited to follow along with your wedding series’s and watch you get married! I’m so happy for you guys! 😍😊❤️
Ahhh so exciting! It’s going to be a beautiful wedding! I would really recommend booking your photographer and videographer as soon as you have your date and venue as we found these were really booked up in advance ❤
Ahhh I have been waiting for this. I’ve just got engaged so this makes me so excited. I honestly love watching your videos every week. It takes me somewhere happy for just a while and I really appreciate it❤ such a beautiful family
So exciting! I can’t wait to see Noah in his little suit! Congratulations to you and Jamie❤🎉
Your wedding mood board reminds me so much of my sisters wedding, it was very natural/garden based. Sage green bridesmaids dresses ect, it was absolutely gorgeous and I love this style of wedding. Excited to see it all come together xo❤
Gemma 🤗 the excitement is beaming from you , really impressive video for anyone planning a weddings. My niece is geeky married in June and only last week the venue cancelled on them 😳 yep the complete hotel has closed for government let’s , this was going to be everything wedding breakfasts, ceremony, wedding lunch and evening party. Plus 2 nights guests staying.😢 By a miracle a hotel in the village next to this was also going to do the same cancelled all event then backed out because of public outcry. They reopened and my niece was able to get a ceremony, lunch and evening party booked for the same date .. not everything they planned but they are so relieved and happy they still get their day . Bless her she said after all this I’m having my cake chocolate 😂. Noah in a little suit ❤. Take care of each other xx x xx

That happened to my friend, anyone who books a hotel has the worry of the government taken the hotel over completely!!. my friend was two years in the planning of hers... so people beware.. a hotel booking can be cancelled completely in minutes!.

This could not have come at a better time so excited! I’m just starting to wedding plan too. Love your videos and can’t wait for the rest of the series ❤️❤️❤️
So excited to watch you plan your magical day! We literally had our wedding just 2 days ago and I’m currently sat in the car on our way to the airport for our honeymoon. I cannot tell you how useful ‘Hitched’ and ‘Bridebook’ were for all the organising and finding vendors xx
Oh Gemma, you’re going to make such a beautiful bride 👰♀️ . It’s so lovely to watch you getting so excited and to follow you on this journey. Thanks for including us - 🤍🕊️
Aw how exciting after Noah and now he can be involved too your day will be amazing I've only been to three weddings as all my cousin's are ten plus years older that me each so different but so cool one was in a marquee in a field one was a beach theme which was wild fun especially for all the kids and the final one was very traditional church so excited to see what you choose! 🎉😄👏💖
You’re off to a great start. Your mood board is fantastic! Noah, Tilley and Teddy in the wedding will be absolutely precious! Excited to go along with you on this beautiful journey.
I got engaged the same time as you and Jamie , I cant wait to watch this series and share ideas !!!

What an amazing start to your wedding planning and the series getting organised and planning is the way to go and anyone watching if you want any inspo then subscribe now if haven't already this is just perfect can't wait the rest ❤️ your ideas look amazing Gemma x
I can’t wait to hear your wedding plans and see what your ideas are. All that you have said in this Vlog sounds and looks really nice. Is Jamie going to do a mood board of his choices and ideas of your wedding as it is for both of your special day. It would be interesting to see what goes through a man’s head about a wedding day. Are you going to do a Q&A with Jamie about your wedding? You have just thought of everything Gemma. What you said in this Vlog for you Hen Night sounded so nice. Especially the Spa Day/Night. Live bands are really nice to have .
I've been so excited for this 🤍
You noo what Gemma, you will look absolutely beautiful on your day, can't wait for this series ❤❤
So excited for you both and most grateful that you chose to share this special moment with us❤
Exciting Gemma. Looking Forward To All The Wedding Plans. Xx 💒😁😘💒
Omg! Im so excited! You really have been an inspiration to me Gemma, I found your videos during a hard time in my life and they really gave me comfort and coziness 😌🤍 your simple and cozy style inspires me and im so happy for you and your family. I got engaged the same Christmas you did and even though my wedding will be much later when we have money and time for it, I’m excited to start planning and I’m looking forward for your wedding series for inspiration🤍🤍🤍
I’m so excited for this aspect of your journey 💃🏾💃🏾❤️
So exciting I'm definitely here to watch it all.
The Barn with the Cottages Sounds PERFECT!!! We attended a wedding last year in New Orleans, Louisiana. There were air conditioned cottages. Wonderful ! Much love, 🇺🇸 🎉
So very excited!!! So happy for all 3 of you❤
I'm starting my planning this year!! Coming from a former wedding coordinator, it can be really overwhelming and you're going to be tempted by so many various trends - so having a mood board is going to keep you grounded to your own ideas, tastes and themes. Physical ones are honestly such a good idea because with digital ones it's so easy to chop and change constantly. So exciting!

Aww im so excited for you both! Your going to be a beautiful bride ❤❤ i dont have any traditions but one tip i have is try not to get too side tracked at wedding fayres. Stick to your to do list and what you need to book. With lots of extras popping up everywhere, it can start to get more expensive xxx
So excited for the wedding series! I’m a bride to be 2024 and can’t wait! ❤❤
Oh I really hope you get the Christmas wedding you deserve! ❤❤
I been super excited for this! 🥰🥰
Omg Gemma I'm so excited for you. You're living my dream🥰
I'm getting married in August this year and love watching these videos! One thing I will say is don't be so strict with the date you have in mind. The venue we wanted wasn't avaliable for our chosen date so we changed our date because we fell in love with the venue.
Exciting times ahead - love the mood boards. Lace backless, long hair (enough to fit in the backless space), colour palette, traditions etc is 👌🏼 Folded planner post it board is fab. Love the cottage/ farmhouse vibes and can’t wait for it to unfold. Btw, I think square nails suit you better Square squoval, come join the club permanently 😘
Omg! This is so freaking amazing. I am so excited for you both and soo looking forward to watching your big day. This all sounds absolutely beautiful. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together in the future xxx
Your wedding idea’s are literally my dream 😍
I am so excited for this series!! I am so happy it’s finally here, can’t wait to see everything! 🤍
So exciting for you & Jamie ❤ I got married in January back in 2017 and it was the best. We even got a white wedding as it snowed the night before / day of and it was magical ✨ I also had 2 dresses! Loved them both. Xx
Gemma, so excited to follow this journey with you and Jamie. I think Noah should definitely have some role in the wedding. I can just see you picking out an outfit for him! You look amazing in this vlog must be the bride to be look of happiness and excitement or the vitamins.
So happy and excited with you at the same time! 🥰
well if this isn’t going to be THE dream wedding then what is !!! 👰🏼♀️💍✨
Aww Tilly baby. She does the same as my cat. I was sorting some papers yesterday and my cat was pawing like that too and sat right on top of them. Bless our fur balls 🥰

So excited for the wedding series.
Aww amazing I think the rustic neutral palette def suits the late summer more so 👰🏻 🎉 ❤ so happy for you guys your journey so magical ❤❤❤

thank you Gemma this is so exiting to watch your Wedding series it s wonderfull i m so happy for you !!!!!
Omg I think we've all been waiting for this ❤❤
I look forward to watching your wedding planning. I missed out for my own wedding. My late husband and I eloped & got married 44 years ago yesterday in London. We did no planning whatsoever, other than buying rings and a dress for me, but loved to think that all the flags flying and gun salutes for the late Queen's birthday were for our wedding! Although he was in the Royal Artillery, we would never have thought about a gun salute!!! Our elder daughter wore the same dress that I wore on her wedding day 30 years later! ❤
