We did ours in November which was probably a bit late, we had real problems with the light especially as I was hoping for sunset shots but really it just went grey. I'd maybe try more for late September/October if I were you.
Thanks Seona, might try for October I think... by which time we'll already have been married for 6 months - I don't know where the time goes!

Lovely trash the dress photos!

Id love to do this although I am worried about being in front of a camera, not a natural! So dont know if Id get on best with it or not!

Im assuming its not a good idea to go get the dress dry cleaned before hand though & I should leave it until after!

Trick is to forget the camera is there. Get a photographer who does action shots rather than very posed and you can just be doing your thing while the photographer shoots away. Much more fun.

On dress cleaning, I did have mine cleaned first as I didn't intend to do the shoot (husband was really anti to start with) and my dress was filthy. My dress was actually dirtier after the wedding than after the trash the dress!
