I’ve been off grid since losing my phone a couple of weeks ago, what better way to come back onto socials than to letting you all know I'm currently taking part in The May50K Challenge this May to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis!
MS strikes young people in the prime of their lives. The average age of diagnosis is only 30yrs old & there is no known cure! One of my legendary mates, Sarah Chippindale has been battling MS for yonks, never complains, just keeps on keeping on no matter how much pain she bares. So some of us wedding vendor pals are baring just a smidge of pain with her to raise funds & awareness.
I’ve set a personal goal of hitting 100K this month - let’s go! Please make a donation (as little or as big as you like/can, it all helps) to support the challenge to leave MS where it belongs, f*cking behind us. Your donation will support research into the prevention, treatment & finding a cure for multiple sclerosis to change so many lives.

Hey, hi, hello 👋
Lover loveeerrrs, I’ve been lucky enough to plan, coordinate & be apart of copious amounts of weddings & work alongside some pretty spectacular vendors, watching couples celebrate their big day! There’s nothing quite like being amongst the magic - try & tell me otherwise, I dare ya!

It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive!
An advocate for stepping out of your comfort zone, challenging traditions. Steering away from “cookie cutter”, often questioning the status quo, exploring the alternatives & going against the grain so to speak, ensuring all weddings are both special & unique, just as you are, with a little spark of madness. 🙊
Now, why am I here blabbering away about me? Well, because of YOU silly!

I’m UTTERLY OBSESSED with the couples I get to celebrate!!
There is no shortage of sensational souls, wickedly wonderful moments & a ridiculous amount of d-floor dazzlers…
Let me introduce… Ellyn & Jack!
These guys were certainly not the exception, their day was BIG WOWS, BIG VIBES & a big ole bunch of PARTY GOING!! I couldn’t help myself, I had to stay back & party with this crew & that they did. 🥳🍾🎉
Here’s what they had to say about yours truly;
“Leisha was incredible leading up to our wedding & was an absolute superstar on the day. She took away all the stress which allowed us to take in everything on our special day. She was approachable, professional & went above & beyond our expectations… & showed us all up on the dance-floor” (I may or may not have added that last bit myself, haha)

As I’m coming up to 4-friggin-years nurturing, building & growing this biz, I can’t help but reflect on aaaallll of the beautiful weddings I’ve planned, coordinated, styled or been apart of in some way or another! The sensational vendors & I might be biased, but THE BEST damn couples EVER!!
It goes without saying, it’s a pretty spesh feeling knowing how many legendary humans I’ve crossed paths with - lucky me!
Alas, Max & Georgia - these divine humans were some of my absolute favourites & it’s such a warm & fuzzy feeling knowing that the feelings were mutual. 🥰
“Leisha is THE BEST! We could write 1000 good things about Leisha. We got her on board for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made.
She was so on top of everything, calmed our nerves and was just so much fun to work with.
Our guests also raved about her! We would highly recommended getting Leisha on board for your wedding.”

It’s been a *HOT MINUTE* since I introduced myself & I couldn’t help but notice there’s more than 2K of you following along nowadays — goodness gracious me!
I’m Leisha, hey, hi, hello! 👋
Wedding planner, coordinator, hype gal, logistics whiz, move-maker, vibe creator, non-conforming, rule-breaking, advocate of all things weird, wonderful, against the grain & you’ll often here me saying “well, why the f*ck not!
I’m no rebel by any means, but I will always be up for questioning the status quo, the “norm” (whatever the hell that is!), the belief that weddings should be something or another. I’m a huuuuuge advocate for an alternative approach, anything to tell YOUR love story & celebrate love however that looks for YOU & your lover/s - that’s what matters most!
I’ve been brewing this baby biz for just shy of 4years now & boy has it grown. I’ve shifted, navigated, adapted & settled on some exciting new perspectives… I am so gosh darn excited to share all of it with you over the coming months. 🎉
Keep an eye out for what’s happening here in the Chameleon Directive headquarters, if you’re anything like me or just a fan of the ole L-dawg (that’s me, Leisha lol) than you’ll be super duper excited to see what’s unfolding - I know I am!
Any guesses? Give it a whirl in the comments, $20 bucks you won’t. 😜

This day.
On repeat.
Over & over again.
That’s all I ask.
Cheeky words from the cherubs themselves;
“Where do I even begin to put into words how much having Leish apart of my day was my favourite part of the whole experience.
Leisha is more than a wedding coordinator — I felt like I had a bridesmaid, best friend, stand in husband and hype girl in her.
I contacted Leish after I had a horrible experience with a venue I picked & I knew I needed her after one phone call.
I can’t speak highly enough of her & the difference she made on my day, she took over 6 weeks before our wedding & I didn’t have to worry about a thing from there.”
As the cheeky little (not so little, it’s huuuge) wedding season is fast approaching, there’s lots to get sorted.
The last minute run-around for all of your bits & pieces, phone calls from family & just keeping on top of your day to day lives.
In the lead up to your big day there is bound to be requests for a copy of your RUNSHEET or WEDDING DAY TIMELINE or EVENT ORDER or whatever it is your vendor, venue or overly helpful aunty wants to call it…
This can be daunting for those who aren’t wedding wired…
What on earth is it? How am I supposed to even start? When should we do photos or speeches? When can we fit in some other weird & wonderful idea to set our day apart from the rest?
LET ME HELP YOU!
For someone like myself who is wedding bound on the reg & written a sh*t tonne of running orders, you betcha bottom dollar I can do it with my eyes closed (ok, maybe one eye open, I need to see the computer screen silly!)
Grab a bottle of bubbly, a comfy spot on the couch, get excited, let’s nut it out!
Feast your eyes on the ridiculously gorgeous, kind-hearted, fun-loving, wild, truly breathtaking beauties that are & 🪩🎂
An all nighter backyard party with a sprinkle of fun, colour popping garden soirée they want? Then my friends… that is exactly what they shall get!
Here’s what they had to say about yours truly;
“We love Leisha so bloody much!! She made our day the most perfect, seamless, stress free, biggest party ever. She is such a vibe to have around and takes care of everything single little thing. She goes above and beyond and we couldn’t be more grateful to have had her.
BIG SLAY x”
