WHO ARE WE?

Firstly we absolutely love what we do, and we hope it shows?!

Weddings are our passion and telling wedding stories for our couples is a real privilege.

STEVE - Creative Director, Camera Genius & Editor

I have the best job ever! I'm so blessed with a wonderful wife (Yvonne) and a fabulous son (Callum aged 14). I simply love weddings because of the unique stories that they all tell, and it's such a privilege to share in these special moments in people's lives. To be able to capture their wedding day and create meaningful and individual stories is a joy! Like I say, I have the best job ever!

Background: A countryside upbringing in rural Shropshire, boys boarding school, University of Birmingham to do Biology Degree, then 8 years in the Pharmaceutical Industry. After progressing as far as I wanted, it was time to turn a hobby into a business. 10 years later, here we are with 5 VOWS Customer Service Awards, and two prestigious UK wide IOV Awards in 2009 & 2010 for my Wedding Films. I think I found my calling and I guess we must be doing something right. Hope you agree.

Then 6 years in the Pharmaceutical Industry where I met Steve, and after getting married on a beach in the Caribbean decided to set up my own successful Wedding Planning company (Scottish Wedding Consultants) arranging weddings for clients from all over the world. I am also in total control of all of Cherry Tree's admin and make sure the boys are always in the right place at the right time. A full-time job believe me! The 5 VOWS Customer Service awards we've won really do show that we achieve our aims of providing truly exemplary service!
