Your wedding day is one of the most signficant moments of your life - a day filled with love, laughter and unforgettable memories. While you can meticulously plan every detail, one thing you can’t control is the weather. Whether you’re dreaming of an outdoor garden ceremony or a sunset beach reception, it’s essential to have a weather back up plan in place.

Here’s why every couple should prioritise a bad weather contingency plan and how it can save the day.

When you’re in the midst of planning your wedding, you’ll come across a range of professionals offering their services. Two roles that often cause confusion are wedding planners and wedding venue coordinators. While both play a part in making your big day run smoothly, their responsibilities and the level of support they provide are vastly different.

If you’re wondering whether you need a wedding planner or if the venue coordinator included with your venue is enough, this blog will explain the key differences and help you decide which service is right for you.

Planning your wedding is one of the most exciting times of your life—but it can also feel completely overwhelming. From finding reliable suppliers to managing timelines and handling unexpected hiccups, there’s a lot to juggle. This is where a wedding planner comes in.

Whether you want full planning support or just a little help along the way, hiring a wedding planner can turn your dream wedding into a stress-free reality. In this blog, I’ll explain exactly what a wedding planner does and when the best time is to book one—so you can enjoy every moment of your engagement without the overwhelm.

Choosing the perfect wedding venue is one of the most exciting yet significant parts of planning your big day. Your venue sets the tone, determines much of the logistics, and often takes a big chunk of your budget. With so many beautiful venues across Somerset and the South West, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the options.

To help you make an informed decision, I’ve put together 15 essential questions you should ask during your venue tour. These will cover everything from availability and capacity to supplier restrictions and backup plans—so you can be confident you’re choosing the perfect setting for your celebration.

A wedding planner’s timeline is an essential element that ensures your wedding day runs smoothly. But did you know that wedding planners also work with their own set of timelines during the planning stages? These timelines are crucial to staying organised, on track, and making sure every detail is accounted for well in advance. As a wedding planner, I create these timelines not just for myself but also for the couples I work with to ensure everything is planned out and executed perfectly.

Planning a wedding is often portrayed as a magical experience, but for many, it can feel like a never-ending source of stress. The pressure to create a picture-perfect day, manage an endless list of tasks, and meet high expectations can make wedding planning feel like a burden instead of a celebration. If you find yourself overwhelmed and frustrated by the process, you're not alone. Here's why wedding planning is so stressful and some practical tips to help you cope with the pressure.
