General

Which areas do you cover?

We plan and coordinate events across London, Essex, Hertfordshire, Surrey, Kent and Sussex — from city venues to countryside estates.

How far in advance should I book?

For weddings and large celebrations we recommend 9–18 months ahead. Parties and corporate events often book 3–6 months out, though we accommodate shorter timelines when availability allows.

What packages do you offer?

We offer full planning, partial planning and on-the-day coordination. Every package is tailored to your event, guest count and level of support required.

How do consultations work?

We begin with a complimentary consultation to understand your vision, budget and timeline. From there we outline a bespoke proposal and clear next steps.

Weddings

How far in advance should we book a wedding planner?

We recommend enquiring 9–18 months ahead for full planning, though we accommodate shorter timelines when availability allows.

Do you plan weddings outside London?

Yes. We plan and coordinate across London, Essex, Hertfordshire, Surrey, Kent and Sussex.

What is included in on-the-day coordination?

We manage the supplier schedule, direct setup, cue key moments and resolve issues discreetly so you can stay present with guests.

Corporate

What types of corporate events do you manage?

Launches, conferences, awards dinners, client receptions, team celebrations and brand activations.

Can you work with our in-house marketing team?

We collaborate with internal stakeholders, agencies and AV partners to deliver a unified guest experience.

Do you offer post-event wrap-up?

We provide supplier reconciliation support and feedback summaries where required.

Parties

Can you plan private parties at hired venues?

Absolutely. We work with private homes, restaurants, rooftops and marquee venues across the Southeast.

Do you provide entertainment and catering contacts?

We curate trusted DJs, bands, caterers and production partners to match your brief and budget.

Can you join mid-planning?
