Utilise the space you are given

Many SEO experts have differing ideas on the ideal word count for Google to 'pick up' (and of course, their algorithms can change) but between 300 and 600 words is generally seen as good. These seem to be popular with Google, they like words!

Images

Getting Married in Central Park, New York – a Guide for British Couples

Destination weddings and elopements have seen a fast increase in popularity in recent years. So many couples are rejecting the big, traditional wedding close to home, and are choosing to elope just the two of them, or to bring just a small number of their closest friends and family with them to an incredible place that they love and want to share.

For example, a Cheshire wedding photographer will understand how to make the most of local venues and natural light, ensuring your images feel authentic to the setting.

Balancing Style and Story

Some couples love posed, traditional images, while others prefer a more candid, document…
