Planning for Guests with Hearing Loss
There’s a lot of things to think about when you’re planning a wedding. Should you have guests with hearing loss, then planning for them is a priority. You want them to feel included in your celebrations.
Your planning will take in the obvious elements – rings, venue, dress, flowers, music and more.

But you might not have considered that the latter of those extends beyond ramps, handrails, lifts and toilets.

Changing Times in the Wedding World
At the time of writing, marriage certificate documentation records only the names and occupations of the fathers of the newly-wed pair. Like they did it all on their own? Quite the opposite is true as we all know. As this 2018 article from Good Housekeeping points out, this out-dated protocol is a hangover from times past that viewed women’s occupations as non-existent or of no consequence. There has though been campaigning in Parliament to change this lamentable situation. About time too we say. This is the 21st century after all!
