My Favourite Wedding Suppliers in Surrey and Hampshire

These are all wedding suppliers based in Surrey and Hampshire, who I’ve worked with and would thoroughly recommend to any bride and groom:

Photography:

Me of course! Ginny Marsh Photography – www.ginnymarsh.co.uk

If I happen to be booked on your wedding day, I would be happy to recommend a few very talented photographers who I have worked with and know well.

I’d say my style is natural, relaxed, and stylish. I try to capture the emotions of the day whilst providing a piece of art that could go on the wall. I photograph the main events as well as the little details to make sure I tell the full story – you’ll be surprised by how much you didn’t even notice on the day! Please check out my wedding packages or contact me for more info.
