Blown away
Rachel is a truly amazing lady. Just give her your ideas and watch her run with them to pull together a wonderful team of wedding suppliers to make your wedding day dreams a reality. My wife, Helen recently worked with her at Fanhams Hall and was blown away with her friendly, yet professional manner when it came to dealing with over 20 wedding suppliers to create a vision of gothic elegance.

Super organised and unflappable
I have recently worked with Rachel as a supplier at a styled shoot. She was super organised and unflappable. She coordinated all the suppliers (more than 20) with ease and was friendly and open to our input too. I would highly recommend her for your event planning - particularly if you have a theme in mind, she is full of vision, passion and amazing ideas.

Highly recommend for any event
I had the most incredible experience planning a styled shoot with Rachel. I had an idea I wanted to put together and Rachel seamlessly brought it all to life! Her attention to details, patience, guidance and all round knowledge were amazing. Highly recommend for any event you want taken care of.

Great Wedding Planner!
Rachel was a great wedding planner from start to finish. My husband and I had secured a date for the venue we really wanted but it was a short notice date so we were worried about sorting everything out. We got in contact with Rachel who sat us down, went through what we wanted and made us feel really calm. She was also a fab liaison between the venues, the wedding party, guests and us. This meant we had a very relaxed day, where we did not need to worry about anything.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

A wedding which had a Lego and TFL theme. The seating plan took inspiration from tube maps, each table being a different tube line. The designer had created the grooms and their guide dog into lego characters for their wedding stationery and each table had a lego flower centrepiece. It was a very relaxed wedding and the couple were a joy to work with.
