To get married there! The CofE is apparently looking at relaxing some of the ‘rules’ on getting married in Church, meaning that you can get married in a parish you don’t necessarily live in. See The Telegraph
One of the funnier quotes from this article:
The guidelines also recommend providing “Kodak moments”: “If you restrict photography during the ceremony, why not recreate the moment later? Stand the couple at the front facing each other, and invite the guests out of their pews to take their own shots.”
Of course, they could just let us photograph throughout (I understand that flash may be distracting - I don’t use flash at all through the ceremony).
On a more practical point, it’s important to check with your vicar / registrar before the day if there are any restrictions on photography at your wedding. These can range from ‘go wherever you like’ to ‘you can’t take any photos at all’. Obviously this will affect your coverage for the day. Best thing to do is to check, and then I can try to sweet talk the official in question (sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t!)
