Fabulous Together

24/12/2023

As we look forward to 2024, I wanted to share some news… I’m hanging up my clipboard!!!
After almost 20 wonderful years planning weddings, Summer 2024 will see me plan my final wedding.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all my couples and families for letting me part of your big day; it really has been such a privilege to be involved in such a special time in your lives.
And to all the amazing suppliers and venues I have worked with over the years; only with your talent and hard work have I been able to plan the most fabulous of days! I really have made memories I will treasure forever.

So, what next?
Well, I do have something in the pipeline and I look forward to sharing that with you in the coming months.

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Lots of love Andrea xx

Lizzie and Duvall loved the wedding that I planned for Lizzie's brother so she asked me to help plan her own wedding this year.
Food and music was at the heart of their wedding.

It was so lovely to receive an email out of the blue from Lizzie’s Mum Sarah; as we had last been in touch after I had planned her son Billy and his wife Ashley’s wedding back in 2018. Now 3 years on and she wanted to see if I could help her daughter plan her … Continue reading "Lizzie & Duval...

Buttonholes and bouquets… I wonder how many I have pinned and assisted with over the past 18yrs?? 😁
But it’s all part of the fun ensuring everything is as it should be.
Antonia’s and Paul’s wedding will be on the website very soon!
Such a beautiful wedding and couple. ❤️

Double, double, toil and trouble.

I love working with the changing seasons… each one offering a different challenge. Marquees with snow on the ground or clear versions where the mid day sun could potentially convert them into ovens… to autumnal skies where the sun can quickly disappear, but then create the most wonderful backdrops for your photos. Over the past 17years wedding planning, I have relished every challenge and worked with amazing suppliers to create the most wonderful weddings.

From day to night… gorgeous bride Lizzie opted to change for the evening into something she could dance the night away in.
Would you change for the evening?

How cute are these two… maybe a future bride and groom?
Loved this pic from Lizzie & Duvalls wedding. 😍

Lovely, kind words 💕

Duvall thank you so much to you and Lizzie for the wonderful review; it really means a lot and I appreciate you taking the time to do it.
It is hard planning a marquee wedding at home as there are so many things to consider not just aesthetically, but practically and logistically, which when you haven't done it before you can't possibly know and that is where years of wedding planning experience come in useful 🙂. I am also lucky to have such fantastic suppliers to work with who make all the difference!
It was so lovely being able to help you and Lizzie create exactly the day you wanted and you introduced me to the amazing Brazilian band who brought the samba and bossa nova rhythms to Cheshire, creating the perfect back drop on such a glorious day!
I'll miss you both, but we have amazing memories of a fabulous day! Wishing you both so much happiness. Love Andrea ###

Happy first wedding anniversary to my wonderful couple Beccy and Phil.
I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since we celebrated your amazing Italian wedding at the beautiful Isola del Garda, Lake Garda.
It was such a special wedding.
Wishing you both a fabulous day.
Lots of love

Throwback Thursday.

Just reminiscing at David and Chris’s wedding day at . Such a beautiful couple. The day was very relaxed with lots of colour, fun and whimsical touches; such as boarding cards as es**rt cards, airline table names and luxury flight amenity bags (all the way from the USA) as favours, (as we were only twenty minutes from Heathrow). And to top it off we organised a surprise air display for guests! Who knew you could get the flights from Heathrow to pause for seven minutes!!!! Brilliant day!

Five reasons why you need a wedding planner.
With over 16yrs experience I have pretty much seen it all, and totally understand how daunting it can feel planning such an important event.
Here are just some of the reasons brides and grooms have given as to why they needed my help.

I’ve planned quite a few weddings where the bride and groom have driven themselves to their receptions in a vintage car.
Is this something you could do?
Or would you want to just relax?
Either way, they certainly make a fab entrance!

Kind words…
Antonia thank you so much for such a lovely review; it was a dream planning your wedding and working with you both! It is so wonderful to hear that you were able to just relax and enjoy the day, that means I have done my job 🙂.
From the start you both trusted me to bring together the day as you envisaged and we had the best team of suppliers who all worked so hard and a fabulous venue!
What more could I ask for! And yes it's true I did walk (only a little bit of running :)) over 10 miles on the day!

Love to you both (and the family!)

The Italian job!!

This was a wedding like no other for me. The weather had me on my toes… and I had contingency plans galore.
But the venue was breathtaking; Beccy and Phil looked like film stars and their family and friends had the best time.

It was quite a journey! 😅

Kind words… Sam, thank you so much for such a lovely review! It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and Lewis to help create your special day, I loved getting to know you both (and your pooches)!
You were a dream bride; you nearly had as many to do lists as me, you know what to do if you ever fancy a change of career -then I can train you :)!
Looking forward to seeing the photos. Love to you both Andrea xx
