You can be sure that no tiny detail will be overlooked in the planning process or on the day itself, leaving you free to have a relaxing time making happy memories with your loved ones. Whether it be a graceful romantic day at a country house, a quirky boho barn celebration, or a vibrant festival wedding in a tipi, you can be sure your special event will be stylish, ahead of the curve and memorable for all the right reasons.

Swoooon 🥰 can we just take a moment to appreciate beautiful Eve and her STUNNING dress from Ghost Orchid Bride

I always get giddy with excitement to see what my couples have chosen to wear on their big day! ☺️

I had such a lovely time coordinating E&T’s wedding at Merchant Taylors' Hall in April, and working with Beans On Toast For Two who captured this gorgeous image 📸🤍

Happy belated anniversary C+P! Time really does fly!

I loved planning this intimate wedding for this lovely couple, with the most gorgeous autumnal colour palette 🧡🥰

In other unrelated news - due to a couple of cancellations, I now have TWO peak dates available on the 15th and 22nd July 😮 if you need On The Day Coordination on either of those dates, do get in touch! (our Full Wedding Planning service is fully booked at the moment though, sorry!)

Not just weddings 🎉 We love a good party too!

I had so much fun working with my lovely client to bring her husband's 40th birthday to life.

We drew inspiration from the sea, the natural world, and (of course) the birthday boy's favourite food and drinks!

Thanks to the amazing team of suppliers who worked so hard on this event, including:

Happy 6th business birthday to us! 🥳

Following a career in business events, styling and visual merchandising, I took the leap in 2016 to pursue a career in planning and coordinating weddings, and boy time has flown!!

Thank you to every wonderful couple who have given me the honour of being a key part of your special day, and to every brilliant supplier I’ve worked with along the way 🥰

I’ll celebrate with champagne and cake soon, but that can wait until Sunday - right now I’m holed up in a super glam motorway Travelodge, prepping for M&D’s marquee wedding tomorrow 😅🥰

Back to Kilnsey Park for the next couple of days, for N&G’s super fun tipi wedding!

I have a real soft spot for this venue - I’ve had a wedding there almost every year! It started with S&J’s marquee wedding in 2018, then A&D’s tipi extravaganza in 2019 (pictured in this gorgeous photo here - happy nearly 3rd wedding anniversary btw you guys! 🧡) and then J&M’s super cool big day last year in 2021!

I’ve always had the best times working at Kilnsey Park 🥰 it’s a spectacular place for an outdoor wedding, with a lovely laid back vibe.

After 4 days of having the most awful sickness bug, I had the cutest email from a lovely couple that I’m planning an elopement wedding for, and it really made my week! 💕
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Honestly April we cannot thankyou enough for everything you have done for us. It has certainly made things a lot easier and less stressful being away from the UK and knowing that you have everything in hand. The peace of mind in itself is simply priceless. We really are so excited for our special day!”

Thanks ladies! 🥰
