After nearly 40 years in
planning and organising weddings all over the UK and of all types, I
bring ENTHUSIASM - COMMITMENT -
EXPERIENCE to planning YOUR wedding. I do NOT believe in
standard packages - planning a wedding should only be a
bespoke service, professionally tailored to reflect
 | YOUR tastes, likes and dislikes |
 | YOUR dates and timescale |
 | YOUR area |
 | and
of course..............YOUR budget |
You must feel that you are able to TRUST me! This is crucial. And
you should also to be able to ask me to help with ANYTHING - I can do as
much or as little as you want me to. The only thing I won't do is
take on more than one managed event on any one day.
