Our Approach Towards Wedding Planning

  • Once everything is confirmed, we’ll jump on a kick-off call to go over what we’ve already discussed in more detail, start to develop a deeper sense of your taste and what’s most important to you. We’ll outline the initial priorities and deadlines, as well as establish how and when you want to be hearing from us going forward. 

  • We’ll deep-dive into who you are as a couple; the things you love, what you're drawn to, the must-haves and non-negotiables for your wedding. We’ll then hibernate for a few weeks to do extensive research into your specific historical period, aesthetic, counter-culture etc, and present back an initial Wedding Pack. This will pull together a cohesive look & feel and define your overall themes, mood boards, colour palettes and budget scoping. We’ll then review and iterate until you’re ready to start booking your venue and main suppliers.

  • Once your Wedding Pack is locked, we’ll source various venue and vendor options to bring our vision to life and go on a load of site visits. We’re always keen to find suppliers who appreciate the opportunity to work together, have a bespoke angle and are uniquely creative. During this process, we’ll define an overall project timeline and continuously feedback on managing your budget mindfully. We may find that we want to evolve your Wedding Pack and must-have’s according to the quotes coming through. At this stage, we’ll also work to develop a comms plan to figure out when you want us to send out your save the dates & invitations, launch your wedding website and set up a dedicated channel for guest Q&A’s. 

  • Once the core pillars are in place, we’ll start to think about the details of how you want your wedding to run, define your on-the-day schedule and pre-empt any situations which may need crisis management. We’ll develop final requirements documents for each supplier and figure out who needs to be where and when. As weddings can be somewhat political, we’ll also work to understand where you may need some extra support to mitigate any difficult interpersonal dynamics. At this point, we’ll develop Info Pack’s for your core wedding party, including schedules, mood boards and all the things they need to know - we’ll even set up meetings to run through it all with everyone, if you’d like. 

  • Ahead of your wedding day, we’ll go on another venue visit to figure out how we can bring the themes in your mood boards to life. We’ll define a budget for decor and do all the work to source everything needed. Our preferred approach is to be conscious about sustainability and re-purposing, so where possible, we’ll look for vintage and/or second hand options. We also have a healthy stock of vintage and antique items we’re happy to use for your wedding, free of charge. We’ll order any additional items needed, polish it all, create mock-up’s and send you progress pictures. We’d be thrilled to be as involved as you want us to be in all aspects of styling, including Bridal, Groomswear, wedding party outfits and accessories. We’ll establish what would work best for you early on in the process.

  • Caring about how everything looks and feels doesn’t take away from the sanctity of marriage, it’s in fact, in recognition of it. Your wedding is an expression of your highest selves and a reflection of the lives you’ve lived together, and will live together as a couple.aWe’ll be up early to set up all of your décor, checking-in with suppliers to make sure all on track and around if there’s anything you need from us (even if it’s a coffee run). There’ll be a minimum of two people around from our side all day. The majority of our time will be spent keeping everyone to schedule and communicating with suppliers, however we’ll also make sure you as the couple are taken care of. Our preferred approach is to remain in the background, but we’re also happy to be more visible if you’d like. We’ll work with you beforehand to identify what you want us to be doing. For example, you may need us to shout names for the arranged pictures, usher guests onto transport, hand out confetti etc.  

Our Pricing

Please see further detail on our starting rates for each package on our ‘Services’ page. In an effort to contribute to increased pricing transparency within the industry, we charge flat rates rather than a percentage of budget. Our minimum rate is £1,000 and our quotes are comprehensive (including travel) so there won’t be any surprises down the line. Fees are based on the complexity of a wedding or event, such as; the number of guests, the location, the amount of suppliers we’ll be bringing in, whether there are any adjacent events (e.g. rehearsal dinner/day after de-brief), how long we’ll be working together, when we’ll start working together, how extensive the sourcing process will be, the experience and professionalism of other suppliers you plan to work with and the level of styling required (e.g. installations requiring additional equipment on-site).

Our Philosophies

  • Weddings are the most intimate yet public form of self expression and we will always regard it as an absolute honour to be a part of anyone’s special day.

  • You’re investing your heart and soul into your wedding day, as well as a significant amount of money. We’ll do everything we possibly can to ensure you have what you want and refuse to let ego or personal taste get in the way.

  • The wedding industry can feel overwhelming as there seem to be so many ways couples can be caught out with complicated pricing models and hidden costs. We aim to contribute to a growing movement which encourages pricing transparency by providing upfront quotes which include everything - no catch!

  • We aim to source vintage and second-hand, as well as re-purpose, as much as possible, not only to benefit your budget but also to minimise waste. We love to find local and independently owned businesses to work with.

  • Our role is to think everything through as thoroughly as possible, communicate clearly and get stuck in the detail. We endeavour to do the hard work upfront to avoid last-minute rushes and stresses.

  • Caring about how everything looks and feels doesn’t take away from the sanctity of marriage, it’s in fact, in recognition of it. Your wedding is an expression of your highest selves and a reflection of the lives you’ve lived together, and will live together as a couple.
