Here’s a little secret: every single wedding day has things that don’t go to plan. Yup. Every. Single. One. And you know what? That’s exactly what makes them perfect. The best stories, the biggest laughs, and the most memorable photos often come from the bits that weren’t in the script.

So, let’s take a look at the things that will almost definitely “go wrong” on your big day… and why you should absolutely not give a toss.

1. Someone Will Cry Too Early (usually it’s me!)

Whether it’s Dad welling up before you’ve even walked down the aisle or your best mate sobbing during the vows, there’s always one who jumps the gun. Don’t stress… tears are proof of love, and if anything, they make for cracking photos. Waterproof mascara exists for a reason.

2. The Weather Will Do Its Own Thing

Rain, wind, blazing sunshine… it’s all out of your control. Instead of obsessing over forecasts, embrace it. A windy veil? Dramatic. Umbrellas? Romantic. Sunburnt uncle? Hilarious. Whatever the skies throw at you, we’ll make it work.

3. The Kids Will Steal the Show

Flower girls eating confetti. Page boys face-planting mid-walk. Tiny humans are unpredictable, and that’s why they’re brilliant. Guests will still be talking about that moment long after they’ve forgotten what colour the napkins were.

4. Someone Will Forget Something

Rings. Speeches. Shoes. Honestly, it happens more than you think. But here’s the thing… your wedding doesn’t grind to a halt because someone left the boutonnière on the kitchen table. You laugh, you improvise, and you carry on. (And I’ll be there to catch the hilarity on camera.)

5. The Dance Floor Will Get Weird

After a few drinks, even the most reserved guest thinks they’re auditioning for Strictly. Ties become headbands. Shoes come off. Aunt Linda drops it lower than anyone thought possible. These are golden moments… and absolute photo gold.

6. Timings Will Go Out the Window

Spoiler alert: weddings rarely run on time. But here’s the beauty of it… your guests don’t know the schedule. If you’re “late,” you’re just fashionably making an entrance. Chill, sip some fizz, and enjoy it.

Why None of This Matters on Your Wedding Day

Because the little “imperfections” are what make your wedding day yours. No one will remember that the cake was served twenty minutes later than planned. But they will remember the belly laughs, the inside jokes, and the unexpected moments that made the day uniquely you.

So, don’t sweat the small stuff. Let it unfold, let it be messy, and let’s capture it all. Because in the end, that’s the good stuff.
