Q - We’re looking at photographers and were wondering what questions we should ask before booking?

"This is a question I see pop up all the time on social media. Start by talking to your photographer, and get to know each other on a personal level. This is important as you’ll be spending more time with them on your wedding day than you will with your husband!

"If your photographer can’t attend your wedding, do they know someone who can fill in last minute?

"Make sure everything is in writing, and you understand how the final product is going to be delivered to you. Some photographers provide albums and digital files as part of their package and others deliver them via the cloud or USB. It’s important you know exactly what you’re getting to avoid disappointment.

"Find out how much additional products cost as you don’t want any surprises when it comes to paying the bill.

"The amount of photos you get varies, but it’s always good to ask, so you know what to expect before booking.

"Anyone can show you a portfolio of 40 or 50 images, but you must see a full gallery to get a true representation of what you’ll be getting on the day."

Expert says prenups aren't just for the rich and famous

Legal experts at Richard Nelson LLP are urging Brits to rethink who prenups are really for. While often seen as something reserved for high-profile couples, data suggests they remain largely overlooked in everyday relationships. Just 7 percent of divorced Brits had a prenuptial agreement in place before separating, highlighting a significant gap between perception and reality. Regionally, attitudes vary. Manchester has emerged as the UK's 'prenup capital', with 13 percent of divorced couples having one in place, compared to 8 percent in London and 11 percent in Birmingham. Meanwhile, cities including Liverpool and Southampton reported no uptake among those surveyed.
