The latest episode of Real Women Raw Stories is not one to be missed!

I spoke to Julie Zarifeh Author, a clinical psychologist who combines extensive academic knowledge with personal experience of resilience. After losing her husband and son within weeks of each other in 2017, Julie shares invaluable insights into the power of resilience and how she applied her skills to navigate these real-life challenges.

We have arrived—it's event week!

The first show of Real Women Raw Stories is Thursday 8th, with another one on Friday 9th August. The brochures are printed, and the bags are packed.

I'm not going to lie, this year has been the toughest one yet. But we are ready and set to go for our fourth year.

In the hardest moments, I remember the people who reach out and tell me what this event means to them, and how it has changed the direction of their lives.

What incredible feedback from people that I don’t actually know. This is what encourages me to carry on.

There are still tickets available for anyone that still wants to come along.
📍 The McFadden's Centre, Christchurch
Tickets are $40 per person.

I've been a bit quiet here lately because we took the kids on an amazing trip to Sydney and enjoyed a 9-day cruise up to Cairns. It was wonderful to soak up the warm weather and make some great memories.

Now, with several deadlines looming, I'm back and hitting the ground running!

Sammy and Tyrone had a stunning at-home wedding, and I had the pleasure of coordinating the day, allowing their family to fully enjoy the celebration.

Their beautiful wedding is now featured on our website! Check out the breathtaking images captured by Joseph O'Sullivan Photography.

It is not always possible to set up the day before your wedding and who wants to pack down their own wedding at midnight?

Setup and pack down is a service that we offer. We will meet to confirm all the details prior to your wedding, then you can dance the night away knowing we have everything under control.

What a hit! The "Ring for Champagne" wall at the Canterbury Sports Awards was an absolute delight for our guests! 🎉🍾

Each time the bell was rung a glass of champagne would appear. Which brought a sparkle of joy and a touch of glamour to the evening. A big shoutout to Theme Productions for making it possible!

How does 'On the Day Coordination' work?

On your wedding day, I am YOUR person. That means I am there to help you on your day.
* Need flowers added to the cake? Got it.
* Run out of toilet paper? I am on it.
* Need food for hungry children? I will sort it
* Clearing away dirty glasses? Always
* Attach button holes - Sorted

As a wedding planner, I don't have a set list of tasks. I will do whatever needs to be done so you and your guests can relax.

Look what I found while sorting through my mum's belongings! 🌟 This brochure from 1974 is a real treasure trove. Here's a chart that shows who paid for what back then. Times sure have changed! 📜✨

Long weekends are great for extra family time! 🥰
But the catch-up workload in a short week? Not so much. Anyone else feel this way?

I saw this quote on the back of a Mainfreight truck today and it perfectly summed up my thoughts on the current recession. While many events are reducing or canceling, I'm planning for growth.

This situation won't last forever, and when it ends, I want to be ready. Someone has to be the outlier, so let's plan for the future we want.

"Feel the fear and do it anyway."

Excuse the pained expression on my face. When Tamara needs to test the lighting for the surprise proposal shot, I take my role very seriously!

Love it when the outtakes see the light of day. 📸❤️

Sammy & Tyrone's wedding was at a private residence. At home weddings are my favourite. This review was written by Jo (home owner) and I am glad she was able to fully relax on the day.

Last week I visited Hamilton to confirm a venue for next years Real Women Raw Stories. So stay tuned for the dates and details to be confirmed. Real Women Raw Stories is an event where we talk about the parts of peoples lives that we don't often discuss. To provide hope for people navigating hard things and to show them that they are not alone. This video shows Mrs D Is Going Without discussing her journey to sobriety and what this event meant to her.

Real Women Raw Stories - The Importance of Sharing

Real Women Raw Stories is an event that is all about sharing stories. Hear from this years speakers about why they think this is important. This event has been going for 3 years and is my passion project. Next year it will be held in Christchurch AND Hamilton. Stay tuned, dates and details will be released soon. Video by SIGN NETWORK LIMITED Mrs D Is Going Without Life Coaching With Fariya Di Foster Michelle Emery

This video is a great summary of what Real Women Raw Stories is all about. Whilst the topics can often be heavy, the feedback I get is that the event inspires hope. I am so proud of this event and the growth that I see each year. Thanks SIGN NETWORK LIMITED for capturing this on film.

Some of you will know that I created an event called Real Women Raw Stories. This video was filmed last year and explains that the inspiration came from wanting to help my Mum. This was a hard video for me to re-watch and I feel a bit nervous about sharing it. But that is what Real Women Raw Stories is all about. Talking about the hard things, so that others feel comfortable to share their stories too. Real Women Raw Stories is taking place Thursday 24th August at 7pm. I would love to see you there.

After months of work, it is incredible to look back and see what we achieved with ChristchurchNZ and SailGP.

With a blank canvas like this you have to have vision and a good team on set up duty. My team and I set up this space and even packed down after the ceremony. Too easy.
