We once spoke to a photographer who said their fav We once spoke to a photographer who said their favourite part of the day was the post-ceremony hugs. And honestly, they were right. This isn’t the part that goes viral. It’s not the picture-perfect inspiration shot. But it’s the part that makes the whole day real. It’s often the first time you see all your favourite people in one place. The first time you get to hug them. And it all happens while you’re still riding the high of just being married, with all the joy and emotion still fresh. These are the moments that stay with you. You can see everything in them. The tight squeezes. The closed eyes. The faces crinkled with feeling. The real stuff, from real PDW weddings. Leave a comment with the couple’s name and we’ll send you their wedding story. 1.
