All around amazing
From start to finish, Alastair was amazing. No words can thank him enough. He managed insecurities about being in front of the camera so well. During the ceremony he was so discreet and respectful, all our guests hardly noticed he was there!
He is so easy to get on with and very attentive to little details that matter. We had a perfect experience.
