Making that first mark of paint on a project always seems the hardest bit…

Have really been enjoying focussing in more on the rustic, brush lettered wedding sign part of my business… allows me head space, alone time and creative license!

JUST GOT ENGAGED? Not sure where to start? How about this...

🤍 Gather together your closest, trusted, most valued people and invite them to join you for bubbles, cake, hilarity and some “wedding vision-casting”!

🤍 Before you do any other planning, its really important to get some fundamental decisions in place - theme, style, location, size, formality... This doesn’t have to be boring – kick off the planning off in the way you mean to continue!

🤍 Book this package and I’ll organise a small party for your chosen people and will remain in the background to guide discussion and make sure those all important, foundational decisions are being made amongst all the fun!

🤍 You’ll start building a mood board of ideas you like and discard thoughts of what you definitely don’t - at the end of the process you’ll receive a beautiful portfolio outlining the style and shape of your wedding based on decisions made.

Most importantly - have fun with your planning, however you do it!

I think now would be a good time for a re-intro to Hayley Elizabeth... it’s been a while and I’ve made some lovely new connections of late!

👋 My name is Hayley
💒 I’m a part time Wedding Stylist & Planner
🏫 Part time School Business Manager
👩‍👧‍👦FULL TIME Mum and Vicars wife (disregard all stereotypes of a “vicars wife” immediately please!)

Following a long career as Head of Events in the corporate event world in London, running international events of every shape and size, I decided to set up my own “hobby” business after my first maternity leave 🤰
Even though I didn’t particularly want/need to get back to “work” I really missed the buzz and satisfaction of planning, styling and delivering beautiful, successful events!

And so Hayley Elizabeth Weddings & Events was born! 🎉

A house move 🏡 an extra child 👶🏼 and a cockapoo🐾 later...
I continue to build on my little business, supporting couples to not only plan the wedding of their dreams but actually ENJOY doing it!!

Since starting up I have come to realise I have a whole lot more to offer than the planning side of things too - I discovered a creative flair for hand lettering and it turns out I can make a rather beautiful hand lettered seating plan and general pretty signage (swipe to check them out!)

So there you have it.. the briefest of brief intros to Hayley Elizabeth! If you’d like to know more, check out my website. And if you are in need of some support with your wedding or event, drop me a line!

Would love to know more about my followers too - any other part time planners? Clergy spouse planners?!

Anyone else in LOVE with this elegantly understated, semi-naked, flower-filled cake style?! 🙋🏼‍♀️
I LOVE how easily this kind of cake can be blended into any style of wedding - depending on the colour and texture of flowers that are used 💐👰🏻‍♀️.
Could this be the little black dress of wedding planning?!

Just finished piecing together this glorious summer wedding mood board for my sophisticated clients 🙂 They were concerned aubergine would be too wintery a colour - but with the right accompaniments I think it’s the perfect feature colour 😍 What do you think?

Today is mine and Paul’s 9th wedding anniversary! Absolutely LOVED our day- it was very us: Relaxed, amazing food, laughter and dancing (well that was mainly me, not Paul!).
So many of the little details I would probably do differently now, but this was the catalyst to help others create weddings that reflect their true personalities... gone are the days of “one size fits all” weddings!

A GARDEN WEDDING’s best friend!
No servers required! Greet your guests with a glass of the good stuff served straight from your garden hedge 😜

BEAUTIFUL day to start planning a back garden wedding...

Excited to be putting my new stationery to use...!

With weddings having been postponed for SO long, I am a MASSIVE advocate of a more relaxed back garden wedding! There is infinitely more that can be done in the comfort of your own back garden, not to mention bagging your ideal wedding date!
If you’re not sure where to start I am free for a consultation to get your ideas flowing! You’ll be amazed at the beautiful space that can be created in your own back yard!
