"AUTUMNAL VIBES ~
A perfect setting to a medieval backdrop. Finding colours that work with your venue is key to any design process. Rachael and Steve chose strong, autumnal shades for their September wedding at @hootonpagnellhall .. Gorgeous centrepieces dressed with fresh fruit by the inventive @redfloral

Fun and oodles of style from member Pearline Events
"WEDDING VIBES - How glorious are these images from my client Annaliese and Seye's wedding earlier this year? I mean look at that joy! Their wedding was a whole vibe! 👌🏾
Here's what @annaliesedayes and @venxm.music said about working with me
"We hired Natasha's partial wedding planning service. From the get go she was professional, super organised and had great communication skills. We worked together over 10 months and her experience and knowledge showed throughout. She thought of things that never even came to mind, surprising us at every turn in a good way. She sourced vendors and gave us options to choose from.
On the day she brought our vision to reality despite having to deal with a challenging venue. We couldn’t recommend Pearline Events more, as without Natasha and her team we never would have been able to pull off the colourful, creative wedding of our dreams!"
My 2023 dates are booking up fast, so do get in touch [email protected] to check my availabilty and arrange a complimentary consultation to discuss your wedding plans."

Harmony between wedding planners and suppliers
We all know the relationship between a wedding planner and her supplier is powerful. With close relationships forming and working in harmony. However this seems to have fractured over the last couple of years so lets explore why.
Who can join the UKAWP?

Sharing these fabulous tips from member The Country Blush
Top Tip Tuesday //
This week's top tip is about confetti
🌸 Check with your venue if you can use confetti - most only allow biodegradable or real petals
🌸 When choosing confetti it is best to go for larger petals as they can look better in photographs. Larger petals also won't get stuck in your hair as much as small petals/lavender
🌸 If you're providing confetti for your guests, make sure that you have plenty to go around - the more confetti the better the pictures!
🌸 Ensure that you have an efficient way of handing out the confetti to your guests - either in pre-made packets/cones or in big baskets for guests to grab handfuls
🌸 Give your bridesmaids or groomsmen the job of handing out the confetti to your guests - the more people handing out the confetti, the less time it will take for all of your guests to have it ready for that magic shot!

A "must read" post from member Pearline Events
"DO YOU - one thing that occurs with some of my couples, particularly when aiming to blend different cultures in their wedding, is the pressure from family. This can be about how family members think your day should be, traditions that they want you to incorporate. If you are in this situation or know someone who is my advice...
👉🏾Make sure the two of you are clear on YOUR priorities first, because everyone will make suggestions about your wedding.
👉🏾 After that respectfully and honestly discuss with your family what your priorities are and get their buy in early. Give them time to come to terms with things you may want to do that are different to what they expected.
👉🏾 Remember your wedding, just like your marriage is about the two of you. Do it your way. So that your special day brings you joy.
My 2023 diary is now open so do reach out for help with planning your special celebration [email protected]

Client spotlight 😍 Meet Jacqueline & Delyan 🥰
I had the pleasure of working with this lovely couple for the last 7 months!
And brought their wedding vision to life in May 2022 at the prestigious Fulham Palace. 👑
When J&D came to me they had booked their venue, the band and a photographer but as they had very busy jobs in London and were also renovating a house they needed some help!
🙋♀️ That’s when I stepped in to provide wedding planning & design services
Join me on my next few posts when I dive into the wedding planning journey in more detail & reveal all 👀
See you soon! 😍

Providing a fabulous visual look at your wedding day, Elite member Always Andri Wedding Design showcases her illustrations
From concept illustration to reality….
What makes me unique as a wedding planner? I hand draw concept illustrations of your wedding set ups to help you truly visualise your day.
I love weddings and have always found it easy to picture what something will look like but understand that can be tricky when you’re planning a wedding. With so many unknowns how can you know how all the separate elements and suppliers will come together to create the day you want?
As well as creating an in-depth design brief that covers every aspect of your wedding day, I will draw out unique design elements such as your design ceremony set ups and the tablescape - so there will be no surprises.
Get in touch today to discuss your wedding plans, my diary is open for 2023.

Get the tissues ready... goodness, this is a beauty from
@russellkentnicholls and member Valentina of @thestarsinside
"On May 19, Whitney & Wade travelled over 5,000 miles to Santorini island to elope overlooking the Aegean Sea. Just the two of them, at sunset, expressing their deepest love for each other, whilst their friends and family from the US watched via video link. This wasn't just a wedding. It was an incredibly touching, emotional journey. Some weddings stay with you...and this experience was one that I'll never forget. I present to you, the emotional cinematic trailer of Whitney & Wade's glorious Santorini Elopement.
