The Photography Show & The Video Show is launching its first ever Wedding Album of the Year competition to celebrate the best of the best from all around the country; showcasing the talent and craft of professional photographers and album makers in the UK and championing the power of print.

There's nothing like a beautifully designed and presented wedding album to immortalise a couple's special day - a permanent and tangible reminder of those happy memories and moments, to be enjoyed for years to come. Wedding Album of the Year will celebrate these memories and the photographers that captured them.

The talented judging panel will comprise:
- Chris George, Content Director for Future Publishing's photography and design brands
- Full-time professional wedding and boudoir photographer David Bostock
- Award-winning wedding and documentary photographer Fiona Elizabeth
- Nikon Creator and WPPI Double Master Photographer Gurvir Johal, ranked 3rd best wedding photographer in the world and 1st in the UK by OneEyeland
- Sanjay Jogia, an internationally acclaimed photographer and Canon ambassador, featured as one of the top six wedding photographers in the world by Professional Photographer Magazine

To enter, pro photographers need to send a copy of an album which they deem to be their best work since June 2019 to The Photography Show organisers. The albums shortlisted by the judging panel will be on display in an exclusive showcase on the show floor at show, 17th to 20th September 2022. The show will be closed on Monday 19th September. 

Alongside those coming top in the categories, the overall winner will be announced at a special awards event at the show and will receive extensive coverage, access to exclusive Wedding Album of the Year branding, and a £1,000 prize fund.

Celebrant vs registrar vs humanist celebrant: What's the difference? Ceremony Master explains... Choosing who will lead your wedding ceremony is an important decision, but understanding the difference between a registrar, an independent celebrant and a humanist celebrant can help you decide what's right for your day. From the legal requirements of getting married to creating a personal, meaningful ceremony that reflects your relationship, each option offers something different. A registrar takes care of the legal civil marriage, while an independent celebrant can create a bespoke ceremony tailored to your story, preferences and values. A humanist celebrant also leads a personal ceremony, but one rooted in humanist beliefs and a non-religious outlook. The important distinction is that not every celebrant is authorised to legally marry a couple, and the rules vary across the UK

Modern wedding rituals revealed as Brits bury sausages for the big day

For decades, the British wedding has followed a well-known rulebook of etiquette, from formal seating plans to three tier cakes. However, new research from Moonpig, the UK's leading online greeting card and gift retailer, has revealed that the nation is moving away from these traditions in favour of highly personal and often quirky rituals. The study of 1,500 Brits reveals that authenticity is winning over tradition. Six in ten (59%) believe a wedding should be a true reflection of the couple's personalities, even if it means breaking classic wedding etiquette. To ensure their day feels truly unique, many are turning to unconventional superstitions and spiritual services. Over one in five (22%) Brits said they have buried or would consider burying a sausage to guarantee good weather on their wedding day. Meanwhile, over a third (39%) would consider hiring an 'Etsy witch' or similar spiritualist to provide blessing rituals for their big day.
