From getting ready shots, to the first dance, there are hundreds of special moments to capture over a whole day when it comes to wedding photography. A favourite shot might be the bride/groom walking down the aisle, or the couple portraits are always special post-vows; but it doesn't always go to plan, especially when involving pets, children and in this case... food!

Take a peek at these food-inspired snaps that were all finalists in the Champagne Taittinger Wedding Food Photographer category at the Pink Lady® Food Photographer of the Year awards... was the winner your favourite too?

"Normally weddings run to plan, but it's really fun to capture the moments where things go a little off script." says Armstrong-Millar, an Irish photographer who has lived near Bordeaux for over 15 years and was the winner of the category of the above image titled 'Many a Slip'.

3rd: 'Special food for the couple' won third, captured by Bangladesh photographer Sohel Ahmed. In Bangladesh it is a tradition to serve a full cooked goat on husbands table on the wedding day and the groom along with everyone share the food all together to celebrate the day.

Highly Commended: Amanda Farnese Heath captured 'Wild Wedding For Two'. She says, "During this past year I have had to modify my wild dining events that I host occasionally, and came up with the idea of anyone wishing to get married during lockdown by offering a wild tiny wedding with an exquisite banquet in a remote secret location in Scotland. This is one of the images from our first minuscule event."

Highly Commended: Bangladesh photographer Subrata Dey captured 'Chocolate and the bride'. He says, "I captured this beautiful picture from a wedding party at Chittagong Bangladesh. Where I saw the bride at the wedding eating chocolate with extreme joy. The joy of her marriage and the taste of chocolate seemed to blend together in this picture."

RSVPing 'YES' to multiple weddings? Here's how to budget!

Attending weddings can be a joyous occasion, but it can also be expensive, particularly if you're invited to more than one over the course of the year. Costs such as new outfits, travel and accommodation, and gifts mean the overall expense of attending can quickly add up. Duncan Fortune, Head of Commercial at Tesco Bank, says: "Wedding season can be a significant expense for households. Planning ahead and setting a dedicated budget for celebrations can help spread the cost over several months, allowing people to make the most of the celebrations while keeping their finances on track."
