There are billions of sites out there for brides but so far I've only found this one for grooms so lads, it's well worth a look!</p>
<p>Parry Jones, one of my grooms from last year, was recently featured in their 'Real Grooms' article, and praised for single handedly bringing back the Ascot!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iamstaggered.com/headline/real-grooms-parry-jones" target="_blank">Full blog post can be found on their site. Well worth a read and then a look round at everything else Staggered has to offer. </a></p>

These are UK made fine art albums and are absolutely stunning.</p>
<p>Handbound and bound in natural leather they are beautiful, lay flat albums that present the photographs in the highest quality.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The albums are beautifully presented, arriving in a keepsake box made from recycled materials. The album itself is encased within a natural cotten sleeve.</p>
<p><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><img style="width: 750px;" src="http://www.hdmphotography.co.uk/storage/post-images/folio_album_1.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1280521217270" alt="" /></span></span></p>

<p>Bound in leather the albums smell amazing (!!) and feel gorgeous to touch. There are loads of colours to choose from, this is contemporary Pillar Box. The couple's names are debossed on the front cover.</p>
<p><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><img style="width: 750px;" src="http://www.hdmphotography.co.uk/storage/post-images/folio_album_3.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1280521401869" alt="" /></span></span></p>
<p>The art white paper is lovely to look at and touch (the album comes with a 'touch pad' of paper so you don't have to keep stroking your pages)! Layflat, and with an invisible crease, means that the photographs are shown in the best possible way.</p>
<p><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><img style="width: 750px;" src="http://www.hdmphotography.co.uk/storage/post-images/folio_album_4.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1280521647897" alt="" /></span></span></p>
