Use an experienced Photographer

When you are ready to book your wedding photographer ideally you will employ the services of someone who has experience and knowledge of weddings.

It is important to feel confident and at ease with your Photographer as the photos will provide a lasting and cherished reminder of your special day. If you have a good 'working' relationship with the person behind the lens it will reflect in the resulting photos.

It is advisable to meet with the photographer before the day to discuss which style/s of photography are to be used. A combination of styles can be used during the day, from traditional to documentary.

Research before you book

Take some time to research those services you intend using for your wedding day - services such as photographers, wedding car hire companies, florists, caterers etc. Check out venues for the ceremony and reception.  (Often a venue will cater for both - as well as the evening party)

You may of course intend enlisting the help of a wedding co-ordinator who will do all the research for you. They will have many contacts in the wedding industry.

Convey your requirements clearly to those you wish to use and book the services that give you confidence (not necessarily the best price).

Thank-you Cards

Make sure you remember the thank-you letters.
If possible, write the cards as you receive the gifts as this will certainly save you time following the wedding. This should also ensure you thank the correct person for each gift item.
(Embarrasment avoided!)

Bakos Boutique - Bristol

bakos boutiqueBakos Boutique can be found in the picturesque village of Westbury on Trym, North of Bristol.

Bakos Boutique specialise in outfits suitable for the mothers of the Bride and Groom. One of our collections is made to order, making this extra special for the ladies who like something unique.

Our extensive collection of hats comes in an array of colours, to buy or hire. We also offer a bespoke service, colouring matching the hat to the outfit. This service can take several weeks so please make sure you order early to avoid disappointment.

Bakos Boutique also has an amazing collection of bridesmaid’s dresses and cute little flower girls. They come in a tremendous range of colours – also very different from the high street chains. They normally take 12 weeks but we can offer a rush order if needed.

We stock an exclusive range of fabulous Prom, Evening, Party and Cocktail dresses. Fantastic colours and our prom promise… We will not sell the same dress to another girl at the same school, not even in a different colour. So if you would like a Classic look or Hollywood glam we have them all.

No appointments are necessary but for the ladies who would like to shop like a celebrity we offer our V.I.P appointments…
