Over the years I have worked in various industries, which would lend themselves to me being called upon to help out at family and friend`s weddings. I have trained as a florist and make-up artist, and worked in events management,catering and housekeeping. Then I had the privilege of planning my daughter`s wedding (left) and for the first time I saw things from a different perspective. I realised that we were putting our time (nearly 2 and a half years planning) and trust in a lot of different suppliers and companies and expecting them all to come together on the day without any oversight, management or co-ordination. The reception venue had an on site "wedding co-ordinator" but on enquiring further we found that like most venues she simply took the details and the booking, dealt with queries then on the day would not even be there but would hand everything over to an events manager. Basically they oversee everything provided by the hotel but not other suppliers. They wouldn`t be covering all the little details and table decor that we had carefully planned. It was then that I decided to use my experience and first hand knowledge to create a more comprehensive service that would cover every aspect of the whole day. Every wedding - while having the same basic elements - is totally unique in the detail and requirements. Our packages cover these 4 basic elements - getting ready, the ceremony,the venue set up and decor, and the reception itself, but within these packages we tailor everything individually to you, and then we will work with you to achieve your perfect day. We are working for you, so we can ensure that the venue and suppliers provide exactly what you have booked and paid for. We find out every last detail and then make it happen |
| Happy Ever After Weddings About Us |
When I got married in 1982, weddings were quite simple. Then came the wedding of Princess Diana and things began to change. In more recent years celebrity weddings continue to set new trends and have given brides a whole new outlook on their day. The fairytale day many brides once only dreamed of has now become attainable, not just for princesses and the famous, with only your imagination and budget as your limit. But as the wedding industry continues to grow, brides are now faced with the challenge of organising and managing a full day event, along with sourcing the ever increasing range of suppliers and decor. |
