Who it’s for

For couples

Plan your ceremony and your photographs around the light, not against it. Know whether your 5pm vows will catch sun or shade, when golden hour begins, and what the weather has done at your venue on this date for the last thirty years.

For photographers

Walk into a venue you’ve never shot at knowing where the sun will be at every hour. Plan group shots, couple portraits, and reception details around the light you’ll actually have.

For planners

Brief venues and suppliers with the kind of detail couples remember you for. Hand the report straight to the florist, the photographer, and the band — everyone working from the same light.

Questions, answered

How accurate is the forecast?
The astronomy is exact. The sun’s position, altitude, and azimuth at your venue on your wedding day are mathematical certainties — no model, no margin. The weather context is drawn from thirty years of records for that exact calendar day at your venue’s coordinates. It’s the long pattern of what your venue tends to do, not a day-of forecast.
When is it delivered?
Within minutes of payment. Your PDF is generated, attached to an email, and arrives before the kettle’s boiled. If anything goes wrong, we’ll spot it and write to you the same day.
What’s your refund policy?
If anything in your report is wrong, write to hello@weddingforecast.co.uk and we’ll refund you in full. We don’t refund on regret — once the PDF has been generated for your venue and date, the work is done. Full policy in the footer.
What if it’s cloudy on the day?
The sun is still where it is. Your report tells you where the sun would be, which is exactly what your photographer needs to plan around any cloud cover. Pages five and six help you think through the contingency.
Can I gift it?
Yes — many do. Order with the recipients’ details, or get in touch and we’ll prepare a printable gift voucher for them to redeem in their own time.
