When I was helping Millie plan her big day I was fascinated with how many elements she considered when selecting products, services and wedding vendors 💍

RAD will be working with vendors, giving them the "Tick" as evidence they are making moves to improve their sustainability practices to keep up with council and govt regulations 👀

Inspo from Millie...

❤️ Hire high quality items rather than purchase DIY, low quality or single use items ultimately saving time, money and creating less waste

👎 Wishing they had hired metal cutlery rather than single use knives, forks and spoons

Thank you to for the high quality service and equipment!

The most common regrets I hear from couples is that they

1) Didn't hire a videographer

2) Didn't have someone there on the day to fix things in the background therefore the couple (or their parents) kept getting interrupted

So why hire a wedding planner and coordinator?

Expertise: With over 7 years of experience, I know the ins and outs of wedding planning. From vendor selection to timeline coordination, I've got you covered.

Peace of mind: Sit back, relax, and enjoy your engagement while I handle the logistics. I'll make sure everything runs smoothly, so you can focus on making memories.

Savings: We aren't as expensive as J-Lo in the 'Wedding Planner'. I can help you stay within your budget plus I've been married and I understand it's an investment, I want to save you time and money!

Creative vision: I'll work closely with you to bring your wedding vision to life.

Hi! 👋🏼
How are you? What's new?
I've been busy...

My wedding season has a wee gap now as March is flat out with other event work around the South Island 🎈

I've had an absolutely amazing time working with lovely couples at beautiful venues and at their homes (for backyard and marquee weddings) around Christchurch to make their day seamless and enjoyable ❤️

Some weddings I supported pack in and pack out, others I planned and co-ordinated and the rest were coordination only 📝

I'm now taking 2021/2022 bookings 🙋🏼‍♀️

Remember it's never too late to pick up a planning session, add on coordination or buy a planning session voucher for a newly engaged pal 💍

This was an amazing day spent celebrating Sarah & Henare at
Tipapa Estate & The Woolshed at Tipapa with the lovely

New year, new me 😉

The Christmas Countdown is on and I'm reflecting on the year that's been... 🎄

Tonight I met with my last couple for the year to finalise their wedding run sheet

Many (many!) weekend & late night coffee dates, after putting the preschoolers to bed, mean January and February are full of exciting Weddings and Events that I'm so grateful to be supporting with planning and coordination🥰

Thank you to all of the wonderful couples and vendors I have worked with over the last few months since launching "Two Rocks" officially 🌟

This is the best year I have had professionally, which is an unexpected thing to say in 2020 and I have enjoyed each day working alongside all of you and I look forward to an epic 2021 📆

And thank you to my "rock" Hugo. For moving into the stay at home parent role so I could give my dream career a shot!
Without you I wouldn't have a rock on my finger or a rock to lean on- You made "Two Rocks" possible ❤️

XOXO Kate 👱🏼‍♀️

A wedding backdrop, arch or arbor is a very important thing because it will set the pitch of the ceremony.

You can embellish with greenery, flowers, ribbons, and lights! Make your arch as simple or extravagant as you’d like by incorporating your colours, flowers, and personal touches.

Tag someone who would love a wedding arch like this that will make saying “I do” look as good as it feels!

As a Wedding Planner, I bring the vision of brides and grooms to life by planning, organising and overseeing all aspects of the wedding ceremony and reception, and even helping out with honeymoon planning when required! ✨

I love to work with my clients to create a plan of action and am responsible for acquiring the necessary vendors such as venue, caterers, lighting, audio, table settings, florists, and so much more. 💐

I have created great relationships over the years with lots of vendors throughout Canterbury, and have lots of recommendations to fit any budget for your wedding. 💸

There's something indescribably beautiful about handwritten vows - whether they're heartfelt and hilarious or profound and poetic. A couple describing their love to one another gets their friends & family tearing up every time ✨

Let's make the day you say "I do" one of the most memorable moments in your entire life 💍

As a Wedding Planner I help couples successfully plan their wedding day and see that everything runs smoothly. My responsibilities include establishing a planning timeline and working with the bride and groom to choose everything from attire, to ceremony, reception venues, music, and food. ✨

I can offer couples various packages that represent different levels of involvement in the planning of the wedding that suits their budget. For example, a coordination package may include managing logistical details on the actual wedding day only, while full-service planning additionally includes months of coordinating details such as wedding budget, vendors, venue, etc. 📋
