As of late 2020, photographers were the most commonly hired professionals for weddings in the United Kingdom: that year, an estimated 85 percent of couples hired a professional photographer, while just under 20 percent of couples did it themselves or had a family member or friend do it for them. UK couples frequently sourced family, friends or DIY for categories, such as planning, transport, stationery, and cake.
