Hiring Susannah was the best decision we made! Susannah took all of the stress out of wedding planning, leaving us with the best parts. She managed many moving pieces, including constantly changing travel plans for international guests. Susannah was a complete joy to work with & bought our vision to life. No question or issue was too small or too big, she was incredibly accessible at all times, & her management on the day of the wedding was fantastic. I cannot recommend her highly enough

A BURST OF COLOUR - CLIVEDEN HOUSE & HEDSOR HOUSE

We interviewed a number of wedding planners over the course of a month and Susannah was the most natural fit for us. She seemed to intuitively understand our requirements; We both work long hours and Susannah had enormous respect for that, she would bring ideas to us in regular evening meetings at our house and in various west London locals. We chatted easily and she came up with endless ideas and visualisations of the days we had planned. Thank you so much for making our day so very special.

Due to busy work schedules, we knew very early on that we needed support when it came to planning our dream wedding. Susannah was recommended by a family friend, and we were immediately struck by her utter professionalism and extensive Little Black Book of suppliers. Susannah brings her decades of industry experience to every single detail of wedding planning and goes out of her way to really sculpt a wedding that reflects you both. without Susannah we wouldn’t have had the wedding of our dreams

MODERN TIMELESSNESS - THE FOUR SEASONS HAMPSHIRE

“Words cannot express my gratitude for Susannah. Elma’s wedding was something out of a magazine! It was the PERFECT wedding, and it’s all because of her. If you think you don’t need a wedding planner, think again and if you think you can go with just anyone, THINK AGAIN! Susannah is a top-notch planner; we were fortunate to have her help. She always made us feel like she had everything under control and she did! The day of the wedding ran so smoothly. Thank you, Susannah.

FAQs

Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Every wedding holds unique memories for me and they are all so special, impossible to choose just one!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Exquisite, Effortless, Unforgettable, Luxurious, Timeless

What about your business are you most proud of?

Our reputation for considered design, impeccable service and close working relationships with London's top suppliers. Achieving UKAWP Elite Planner status.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Hire a planner!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Fun paper masks of the groom's face that all guests wore on the dance floor and creating seemingly random table names of celebrity names but which all had something in common with the groom, guests just had to work out what it was.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I believe that as a wedding planner, it’s not my job to project my taste and preferences onto my clients but rather spend time getting to know them and listening carefully to the journey of their relationship and from there, to design and deliver an unforgettable day which reflects their personalities, their preferences and their stories and which guests would all agree is tangibly “them”. I do have a signature approach to wedding planning though which I am often told is a combination of meticulous, calm and collaborative.

What is the most unusual thing you’ve been asked to plan?

A meeting at the wedding venue with Prince William's security detail as he was a guest at one of my clients' weddings

How do you ensure a stress-free wedding?

Top Tips: 1) Be organised – a folder, a timeline, a to do list and a budget 2) Be clear – discuss and agree what are the ‘must haves’, the ‘nice to haves’ and the ‘could do withouts’ and allocate time and budget accordingly 3) Be calm – don’t sweat the small stuff – the most important part of the day is the ceremony and the celebrations with loved ones. No one will notice if the napkins don’t match the exact shade of your earrings so don’t lose sleep over it! 4) Engage me as your wedding planner ;-)

What do you love most about your job?

Same question as above? So 2nd tip would be: Prioritise the items on budget - the must haves, the nice to haves and the could do withouts

What is your favourite moment at a wedding?

I am always really moved by the arrival of the bride and the few moments we spend together with her attendants before she makes her entrance. I also often tear up during the speeches.
