London elopement wedding - witnesses / photographer

[ThuMuClu]

My partner and I are having a wedding just the two of us at Marylebone register office in May - we aren’t having guests etc and keeping it as low key as possible and I am thinking of booking a photographer that works with an assistant - has anyone done that / have any recommendations? I’m worried what seems like a simple solution will turn out to be overly expensive and complicated but equally have a fear of trying to find witnesses on the day and struggling!

Watching with interest..... I would like a very similar situation at our wedding, no guests, but also don't want to rely on strangers to be witnesses! Have had a look at Brighton photographers, you can book them for minimum 2 hours, cost between £175-300 per hour from what I've seen. London probably more expensive

Good luck! It's a lovely idea 🙂

My fabulous Ukrainian guest has moved her photography business to London. She takes the best portrait photos and wedding portfolios I have ever seen. I am extremely non-photogenic and she has een the only person who has taken a photograph of me that not only do I like .. I actually love. She is also great fun and v reasonable as is establishing her business here .

Getting married on 19/04/23 and my witnesses have just pulled out due to family emergency. Anyone willing to be a witness in the Hemel area - would be a great help!!!
