We know how important every detail is, so our dedicated wedding coordinator and friendly staff are here to make sure everything runs smoothly.

We know that every wedding is different, and that’s exactly how it should be. Your day is about you—your story, your style, and the people you love—so our aim is to help create a celebration that feels completely personal and truly yours.
From the moment you arrive, our friendly and experienced team is there to support you and take the pressure off. We’re on hand for the big moments and the little ones too, quietly making sure everything runs smoothly so you can simply enjoy the day. Whether that means offering refreshments during your portraits, pinning buttonholes for the wedding party, or being a calm, reassuring presence just before you walk down the aisle, we’re always close by when you need us.
We take pride in being approachable and genuinely invested in your wedding. Our team understands how special these moments are and treats every celebration with care and respect. We keep things organised without ever feeling formal or over-structured, stepping in when needed and blending into the background when not.
Our approach is relaxed, professional, and down to earth, helping you and your guests feel comfortable and at home. We aim to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere where nerves are eased, laughter flows, and everyone can soak up the moment.

If you are reading this you are about to begin the thrilling (and sometimes stressful) journey of planning your wedding, yay! Wedding planning can be overwheleming at times, but I am always here to answer questions, give advice or just listen if you need to rant. I have been a part of over 300 weddings and it is always a highlight of my job to see my couples say 'I do' after months or years of helping plan their big day. Good luck on your wedding journey! x
