										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="font-weight: 400;">As a wedding planner, I&#8217;ve seen the very best of wedding guests, and I’ve also learnt what wedding guests shouldn’t do. The ones who throw themselves onto the dance floor, chat to people they&#8217;ve never met before, and just make the day enjoyable are the best tupes of guests! People who are genuinely happy and excited for the couple. But we’ve also seen the opposite, with behaviour people must clearly think is ok…</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The truth is, most guests never set out to be difficult. Usually it&#8217;s a throwaway comment, a bit of thoughtlessness or someone forgetting that this isn&#8217;t just another party, it&#8217;s one of the biggest days of your lives. Months, and often years, have gone into planning every little detail of your day, so below is my advice for all wedding guests! Feel free to share it! Even put the link on your invites! So you can have a day you enjoy!</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-771" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/hannah-rose-luxury-wedding-planner-london-mandarin-oriental-107_.jpg" alt="" width="1125" height="1500" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/hannah-rose-luxury-wedding-planner-london-mandarin-oriental-107_.jpg 1125w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/hannah-rose-luxury-wedding-planner-london-mandarin-oriental-107_-980x1307.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/hannah-rose-luxury-wedding-planner-london-mandarin-oriental-107_-480x640.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1125px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t wear white</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Let&#8217;s get the obvious one out of the way first.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Unless the couple has specifically asked everyone to wear white, just don&#8217;t do it. That also applies to ivory, cream, champagne or anything that photographs as white. There are thousands of other colours to choose from, so leave this one for the bride.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t complain to the couple</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This is probably one of the biggest ones. If you didn&#8217;t enjoy your meal, you think the drinks are too expensive, the weather isn&#8217;t ideal or you&#8217;ve had to queue at the bar for ten minutes, please don&#8217;t go and tell the couple.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">They&#8217;re not going to be able to change any of those things, and all you&#8217;ve done is plant a worry in their mind that they absolutely didn&#8217;t need on their wedding day. If something genuinely needs sorting, speak to the wedding planner, venue or a member of staff. That&#8217;s exactly why we&#8217;re there.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t take things home</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">That lovely wine glass? The charger plate? The candle holder? It might look like a lovely keepsake, but chances are it&#8217;s been hired, and if it goes missing the couple gets charged for it.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">I&#8217;ve seen couples receive invoices after their wedding because items have disappeared throughout the day, so unless you&#8217;ve specifically been told it&#8217;s yours to take home, leave it where it is.</p>

<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t be late</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Whether it&#8217;s arriving late to the ceremony or wandering back twenty minutes after everyone else from the drinks reception, timing really does matter. The whole day runs to a schedule, and when guests are late it has a knock-on effect on everything else. Leave yourself plenty of time, allow for traffic and remember that it&#8217;s far better to arrive early and grab a drink than come rushing in halfway through the vows.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Reply to your RSVP on time</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">I promise the couple aren&#8217;t chasing you because they&#8217;re bored. Your RSVP deadline is linked to catering numbers, table plans, stationery, dietary requirements and final invoices. Every late response means more admin for the couple and often delays decisions they need to make. If you know whether you&#8217;re coming, let them know.</p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">If your child is upset, take them outside</strong></span></h2>
<p>Children can be absolutely wonderful at weddings, but if they&#8217;re crying during the ceremony, speeches or another important moment, it&#8217;s always appreciated if you quietly step outside until they&#8217;ve settled. Nobody will judge you for doing that. In fact, most people will appreciate it.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2540" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/18.jpg" alt="wedding planner Northampton" width="1920" height="1280" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/18.jpg 1920w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/18-1280x853.jpg 1280w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/18-980x653.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/18-480x320.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1920px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Respect a child-free wedding</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Not every wedding is designed for children, and that&#8217;s completely okay. Whether it&#8217;s because of the venue, the budget or simply the atmosphere the couple want to create, it&#8217;s their decision. You don&#8217;t have to agree with it, but please don&#8217;t spend the day telling them how disappointed you are or trying to negotiate exceptions.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t tell the couple about problems you&#8217;ve already solved</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This happens surprisingly often. A guest will proudly tell the couple that the florist spilt water on a tablecloth or that something went wrong with the cake, before quickly adding, &#8220;Don&#8217;t worry, I sorted it.&#8221; While you&#8217;re probably hoping they&#8217;ll thank you, what you&#8217;ve actually done is make them worry about something they otherwise would never have known about. If it&#8217;s been dealt with, leave it there. If it still needs sorting, tell the planner—not the couple.</p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t complain about paying for drinks</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">By the time you&#8217;ve enjoyed your ceremony drinks, wine with dinner, toast drinks and evening food, the couple have already spent a significant amount hosting you.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">If there&#8217;s a cash bar later in the evening, that&#8217;s absolutely their choice. Weddings are incredibly expensive, and providing unlimited drinks all day simply isn&#8217;t possible for every budget.</p>
<div id="attachment_1303" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://phoebejanephotography.com"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1303" class="wp-image-1303 size-full" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/G6A0393.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/G6A0393.jpg 1024w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/G6A0393-980x654.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/G6A0393-480x320.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-1303" class="wp-caption-text">Photo by Phoebe Jane Photography</p></div>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Respect the dress code</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">If the invitation says black tie, wear black tie. If it says lounge suits, don&#8217;t turn up in jeans.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Dress codes aren&#8217;t there to make life difficult—they&#8217;re part of the overall vision the couple have spent months creating, and making a small effort shows respect for that.</p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t expect a plus one</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Guest lists are one of the hardest parts of wedding planning, and every extra guest comes with an additional cost. If you&#8217;ve been dating someone for a couple of months and the couple haven&#8217;t even met them, please don&#8217;t assume they&#8217;ll automatically be invited. If your invitation doesn&#8217;t include a plus one, don&#8217;t put the couple in the awkward position of having to explain why.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Be kind to the suppliers</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This one is close to my heart. Wedding suppliers work incredibly hard behind the scenes, often for 12 to 16 hours, to make sure everything runs seamlessly. Please don&#8217;t be rude to the photographer because they&#8217;re organising family photos, the caterers because dinner is taking a few extra minutes, or the planner because we&#8217;re asking everyone to move into the next room. And yes&#8230; I&#8217;m particularly talking to certain enthusiastic parents who suddenly think they&#8217;re running the wedding.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t be unnecessarily fussy about the food</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The couple have probably spent months choosing their menu, attending tastings and trying to cater for as many people as possible. Unless you have a genuine allergy or dietary requirement, try to embrace what&#8217;s been chosen rather than commenting on everything you would have preferred.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2719" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/randapreviews-52.jpg" alt="" width="1067" height="1600" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/randapreviews-52.jpg 1067w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/randapreviews-52-980x1470.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/randapreviews-52-480x720.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1067px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Tell the couple about dietary requirements in advance</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">On the flip side, if you do have dietary requirements, tell the couple before the deadline.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Turning up on the day expecting the caterers to produce a gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan alternative that nobody knew about simply isn&#8217;t realistic.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Leave the family drama at home</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Every family has its dynamics. If there&#8217;s someone you don&#8217;t get on with, avoid them. You don&#8217;t need to spend the entire evening together, but equally, a wedding isn&#8217;t the place to reopen old arguments or create unnecessary tension. The couple deserve better than that.</p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Stop complaining about the seating plan</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">I can assure you, the seating plan wasn&#8217;t put together in five minutes.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">It&#8217;s usually one of the most stressful jobs of the entire planning process. Couples spend hours working out who will get on, which families should be separated and how to keep everyone happy. Sometimes that means you won&#8217;t be sitting exactly where you&#8217;d like—but that&#8217;s okay.</p>
<h2><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t swap seats</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This isn&#8217;t just about convenience. Many weddings now have choice menus or dietary requirements linked to individual seats, so when guests decide to swap places halfway through dinner, it creates chaos for the catering team and increases the chance of someone receiving the wrong meal. Stay where you&#8217;ve been seated.</p>
<div id="attachment_3100" style="width: 1153px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://jamiedunnphotography.com"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3100" class="wp-image-3100 size-full" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/JodieTom-WED-43.jpg" alt="" width="1143" height="1600" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/JodieTom-WED-43.jpg 1143w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/JodieTom-WED-43-980x1372.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/JodieTom-WED-43-480x672.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1143px, 100vw" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-3100" class="wp-caption-text">Photo by Jamie Dunn</p></div>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Listen to the MC or planner</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">When we&#8217;re asking guests to take their seats, move outside for confetti or make their way into the next room, we&#8217;re not doing it to be bossy. We&#8217;re trying to keep the day running on time so the couple actually get to enjoy everything they&#8217;ve planned. A five-minute delay here and there soon becomes half an hour.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Know your limits</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Nobody expects you not to enjoy yourself. Have a drink, have a dance and celebrate properly—but know when enough is enough. Every wedding has that one guest who has one too many and suddenly becomes everyone&#8217;s main talking point. Trust me, that&#8217;s not the legacy you want to leave.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong style="color: #333333;">Don&#8217;t create your own family photo list</strong></span></h2>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The photographer will already have a carefully planned list of group photographs that the couple have agreed in advance. Please don&#8217;t keep grabbing the couple to say, &#8220;You haven&#8217;t had one with Uncle Bernie yet!&#8221; Every extra photo adds time, delays the drinks reception and often means the couple spend less time actually enjoying their wedding. If they wanted that photo, it&#8217;ll almost certainly already be on the list.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">At the end of the day, being a great wedding guest isn&#8217;t difficult. Turn up on time, respect the couple&#8217;s choices, be kind to the people working hard behind the scenes and remember that the day isn&#8217;t about you.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">***</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">If every guest did those four things, weddings would run more smoothly, suppliers would go home happier, and most importantly, couples would spend their wedding day making memories instead of dealing with unnecessary stress. And that&#8217;s exactly how it should be. Need help with your wedding guests? <a href="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/contact/">Get in touch!</a></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You’re officially in the final month before your wedding. Exciting? Absolutely. Slightly terrifying? Also absolutely! Last-minute wedding stress? Let&#8217;s try to avoid that! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After months, or maybe even years, of planning, it can suddenly feel like there are a million little things left to do. Final payments, seating plans, supplier timings, speeches, fittings, RSVPs, music choices and DIY projects. And somewhere amongst all of that, you&#8217;re actually supposed to be getting excited about getting married!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you&#8217;re feeling a little wedding stress creeping in, don&#8217;t panic. Pretty much all of the big decisions have been made, and we&#8217;re now in the final month. Which is basically about wrapping up all the little elements that bring it all together!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So, if you&#8217;re saying “what should I do in the final month before my wedding?”, here&#8217;s what we recommend adding to your final month wedding to do list.</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2520 size-full" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BK_WED182.jpg" alt="wedding decor, table names" width="1600" height="1067" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BK_WED182.jpg 1600w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BK_WED182-1280x854.jpg 1280w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BK_WED182-980x654.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BK_WED182-480x320.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1600px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2><b>Finalise Your Wedding Day Logistics</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">By now, you should have a pretty good idea of what your timeline looks like and what moving parts are happening throughout the day, so let&#8217;s just finalise those timings and make sure it all works.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Think about when you&#8217;re getting ready, how early everyone needs to be where, and make sure your bridesmaids know what time they have to be in the chair! Work out what time suppliers are arriving, who is greeting them, when the ceremony starts and when you need to be ready, who is greeting your guests and at what time, when photographs are happening and when food is being served.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Reconfirm delivery and arrival times with your suppliers too. It might be that your florist is actually able to get into the venue the day before, and that may work better for them. Know what time your photographer is arriving and tell them where they need to be going. You don&#8217;t want to be giving them directions whilst having your makeup done!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Check what time your cake is arriving and, if it&#8217;s going to be a hot day like we&#8217;re having this year, does it need to go straight into a fridge? Your band will also want to know when they can load their equipment in, but you don&#8217;t want that happening while you&#8217;re eating if they&#8217;re going to be setting up in the same room as your wedding breakfast.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you&#8217;re having a marquee wedding, dry hire wedding or lots of different suppliers, this becomes even more important.</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-4105 size-full" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/FineshadeStudios-9979.jpeg" alt="wedding breakfast, real wedding " width="1600" height="1067" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/FineshadeStudios-9979.jpeg 1600w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/FineshadeStudios-9979-1280x854.jpeg 1280w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/FineshadeStudios-9979-980x654.jpeg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/FineshadeStudios-9979-480x320.jpeg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1600px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2><b>Chase Those Final RSVPs</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If there are still guests who haven&#8217;t replied, now is definitely the time to chase them. You need the final numbers to send to your caterer and venue, especially when it comes to those dietary requirements!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You&#8217;ll also need your final numbers so you can complete your seating plan. It&#8217;s also a good idea to let your venue or coordinator know if any of your guests may need extra help on the day, if they have restricted mobility, or if any guests are only coming for small parts of the day, such as just the ceremony instead of the whole day.</span></p>
<h2><b>Finalise Your Seating Plan</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once your RSVPs are in, you can finally finish your seating plan! Yay, what a task&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This can sometimes feel like the world&#8217;s hardest puzzle, particularly when you&#8217;re working out who gets along with who and where on earth to put Uncle Bob! But really, it’s 2 hours of their life, so don’t overthink it too much.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once it&#8217;s decided, you can get it printed or ordered and have your place cards, table numbers, and menus all sorted too. Make sure you double, no, triple check spellings before anything gets printed. Don&#8217;t rush it!</span></p>

<h2><b>Confirm Your Music, Vows And Speeches</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This is a big old task, well, it feels like it. Deciding on your first dance song is not the only music you need for your big day. You also need:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> The getting ready playlist, obviously. But feel free to delegate that job to a bridesmaid!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Ceremony music for guests entering</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Bride aisle entrance songs</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Signing the register music, usually three songs</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Ceremony exit song</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Entrance into the wedding breakfast, with waving napkins obviously!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> First dance</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Second dance, sometimes? It&#8217;s a bit old-fashioned, but some couples still do parent dances after the first dance. It&#8217;s cute, we like it.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> End of the night song!</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Honestly, the end of the night song is so massively underrated. You want to end that night on the dance floor on a high, so make sure it&#8217;s a good one.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you&#8217;re having live musicians, make sure they have everything they need too. Make sure you know well enough in advance who is playing the music and, if it&#8217;s on a Spotify playlist, download it. Do not rely on dodgy WiFi!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And don&#8217;t leave your vows or speeches until the night before! Practising out loud can be cringey, but it&#8217;s worthwhile and will help you work out where to pause, breathe and make any last-minute changes.</span></p>

<h2><b>Book Your Final Appointments</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now is the time to get all of your final beauty appointments booked and in the diary, as well as making sure your wedding outfits are completely sorted.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We&#8217;re talking haircuts, nails, lashes, brows, tan, waxing, facials or any other treatments you usually have. Make sure everything is booked well in advance, but not too close to the wedding day. It&#8217;s a fine balance!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Please do not try something new, including, but not limited to, a new hair colour, dramatic haircut or brand new skincare product. Your wedding morning is not the moment for surprises!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It&#8217;s also time for your final dress fitting, including any bridesmaid alterations, and to make sure your suit fits properly and all of your accessories are sorted. Oh, and don&#8217;t forget to break in your wedding shoes! We&#8217;re talking the grooms as well as the brides on this one. We do not need blisters and sore feet on the day.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/why-is-wedding-planning-so-stressful/">BLOG: Why Is Wedding Planning So Stressful?</a></p></blockquote>
<h2><b>Finish Your DIY Projects</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you&#8217;ve been working on your own stationery, decorations or personal details, then this is the time to get them all finished, and please do not start anything new because you feel your wedding suddenly needs something you&#8217;ve seen in a TikTok reel!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When it&#8217;s done, pack everything away into labelled boxes so it doesn&#8217;t get damaged and so whoever is setting it up knows what it is. We don’t want to be stressed the day before trying to locate things. </span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-3111 size-full" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/32-AP2A2277.jpg" alt="wedding decor, placename" width="2275" height="1518" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/32-AP2A2277.jpg 2275w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/32-AP2A2277-1280x854.jpg 1280w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/32-AP2A2277-980x654.jpg 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/32-AP2A2277-480x320.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 2275px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2><b>Prepare A Small Emergency Kit</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It&#8217;s always handy to have a small emergency kit, especially if you don&#8217;t have a coordinator.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Just a small bag with plasters, deodorant, stain remover wipes, safety pins, hair grips, tissues and anything you might need for quick makeup touch-ups, like your lipstick, perfume, hairspray and maybe some mints! Make sure someone knows where it is. You don&#8217;t need to carry it around, but make sure it&#8217;s nearby and not in the car or locked away in your hotel room!</span></p>
<h2><b>Don&#8217;t Forget What Happens At The End Of The Night</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Often forgotten, but have you thought about who is taking your cards and gifts home? Who is collecting all your personal items at the end of the night? What happens to leftover alcohol? Who is taking the cake? Are there decorations or hired items that need returning?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Make these decisions before the wedding day and make sure you know when your suppliers are coming in to collect their things, such as the florist or furniture hire company. If you&#8217;re nominating someone to be responsible for these things, make sure they&#8217;re aware of their responsibilities in advance. You don&#8217;t want to be standing outside your venue at midnight with logistical details and then taking a big, deep breath!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Your timeline, supplier contacts, arrival times, seating plan, dietary requirements, ceremony details, music choices and setup information are all finalised, and we know what your day is going to look like.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/services/on-the-day-management/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our On The Day Management Service</span></a></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And if there is something you&#8217;re worried about, tell us. Even if you think it&#8217;s tiny, it&#8217;s good for us to know what your concerns or worries are.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The final month should be about getting excited, not getting stressed. So get those final details ticked off, hand over what you can and take a big breath.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You&#8217;re nearly there. You&#8217;ve done the planning, and now it&#8217;s time to enjoy the wedding, without the wedding stress!</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When you’re planning a wedding, it’s so easy to get caught up in all the shiny, exciting bits. The dress. The venue. The flowers you’ve been obsessively saving on Pinterest for months. The cute little details that make your day feel special and totally you. But here’s the thing, what often gets forgotten is how all of those pieces actually come together on the day. And trust us, that’s where the magic, or the stress, happens. This is where a wedding coordinator really shines.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Honestly, it’s one of those things couples don’t always realise they need… until they do. And then afterwards, it’s the thing they say they couldn’t have done without. Seriously, ask anyone who’s been there, they’ll probably tell you it’s worth every penny and then some.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Hiring a wedding coordinator isn’t about going over the top or handing over control. It’s about feeling supported, looked after, and actually being able to enjoy your wedding. Properly. From the planning right through to the last dance.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-4202" style="aspect-ratio: 0.6666708857555123; width: 579px; height: auto;" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/970A4184-683x1024.jpg" alt="wedding couple - wedding coordinator, wedding investment" />

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;they were absolutely brilliant&#8230; Hannah and Chloe went above and beyond to make sure we were as comfortable and happy as possible&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What&#8217;s the difference between a wedding planner and a coordinator?</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A wedding planner and a wedding coordinator play very different roles, and understanding the difference can really help when deciding what support you need.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A wedding planner is involved from the very beginning, guiding you through the entire planning journey. They help shape your vision, manage your budget, source and liaise with your suppliers, and support you with decisions along the way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A wedding coordinator steps in much closer to the wedding day, usually around one month beforehand. Their focus is on taking everything you’ve planned and making sure it runs exactly as it should. They manage the timings, liaise with and greet suppliers, oversee the day&#8217;s logistics, and handle anything that pops up on the day, so you’re not answering questions or problem-solving while you should be enjoying every moment.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" class="wp-image-4205" style="aspect-ratio: 0.6666708857555123; width: 670px; height: auto;" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/BK_WED259-683x1024.jpg" alt="Married couple" />
<figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Venue: Hampton Court House</figcaption>
</figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Planning a wedding is exciting… but it can also feel like a lot</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Like, a lot, a lot! Let’s be honest, wedding planning can quite literally take over your life. One minute you’re buzzing about colour schemes, favours, and ceremony ideas, and the next you’re juggling emails, contracts, timings, and a never-ending to-do list. Cue panic!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A wedding coordinator helps bring it all back to calm. We help you organise your plans in a way that feels manageable, not overwhelming. You still make all the decisions, still choose everything you love, but you’re not doing it alone. There’s someone there to support you, keep you on track, and gently remind you it’s all going to be okay.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Your wedding day should feel calm, not rushed</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">One of the biggest worries couples share is that the day will fly by, or that they’ll feel stressed and pulled in a million directions, answering calls, sorting last-minute things, or even getting ready in a whirl of chaos. And it’s a totally valid worry.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With a wedding coordinator, you don’t need to watch the clock, think about what’s next, or dash around trying to make everything happen yourself. We’re quietly running the day in the background, making sure it all flows naturally. If something needs tweaking, we handle it. If someone has a question, they come to us.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You get to stay exactly where you should be, present, relaxed, and soaking up every moment. And honestly? That feeling alone is worth every penny.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" class="wp-image-3358" style="aspect-ratio: 0.6670074618894297; width: 536px; height: auto;" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Copy-of-KT-Wedding-164-683x1024.jpg" alt="Bride" />
<figcaption class="wp-element-caption">V &amp; H Photography</figcaption>
</figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Your friends and family get to relax too</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We hear it all the time: “Oh my mum is going to do that,” or “My bridesmaids will handle this.” And while it’s offered with the best intentions, it often leaves your loved ones juggling jobs instead of actually enjoying the day. Even the most reliable people can find it tricky once the excitement and emotion really kick in.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With a coordinator, your family and friends can just be themselves. Your mum isn’t worrying about timings, your best friend isn’t fielding questions, and no one is scrambling to fix last-minute hiccups. Everyone gets to celebrate with you, exactly as it should be.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>We’re thinking about the things you don’t even see</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Weddings rarely run exactly to plan, and that’s completely normal. The difference is having someone who knows how to deal with it calmly and quietly. A wedding coordinator is always thinking a few steps ahead. If something needs adjusting, we do it without fuss. Most of the time, couples don’t even notice anything needed sorting, and honestly, that’s the goal. You stay relaxed, your guests stay happy, and the day keeps flowing. (Pro tip: this is the stuff that makes your wedding <em>actually</em> feel effortless in photos and memories.)</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Your ideas deserve to be brought to life properly</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You’ve spent so much time imagining how your wedding will look and feel, not just the pretty details, but the atmosphere, the timing, and those little moments you’ve been dreaming about.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A coordinator makes sure your plans are understood and carried out exactly as you hoped. Everyone involved knows what’s happening and when, so your vision doesn’t get lost. It’s not about taking over, it’s about protecting what matters to you.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-2901" style="aspect-ratio: 1.4992741453417209; width: 777px; height: auto;" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/BM-LISAJANEPHOTO-0287-1024x683.jpg" alt="Groom, at AMP Studios" />

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The final weeks feel so much easier</strong></h2>



<div class="wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Those last few weeks before the wedding can feel super intense, even if you’ve been really organised. Suddenly, there are more questions, more details to confirm, final decisions to make, and more things to think about. Cue stress levels rising.</p>
</div>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Having a wedding coordinator during this time is such a relief. You know someone experienced has looked over everything, and nothing important has been missed. You’re not second-guessing yourself or lying awake at night worrying. Instead, you can start getting excited, which is exactly how it should feel.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;We worked with Chloe for day of coordination who was the best decision we made for our wedding.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How much does a wedding coordinator cost?</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Having a wedding coordinator is an investment in how your day feels. When couples look back on their wedding, they rarely remember every tiny detail. They remember how they felt, calm, happy, excited, and fully present. A wedding coordinator protects that feeling.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We take care of the logistics so you can focus on the moments that matter, the hugs, the laughs, the happy tears, and the celebration. That’s why so many couples say it was the best investment they made.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For most weddings with us, on the day coordination usually sits between £1,750 and £2,500. In the context of an overall wedding budget, it’s a relatively small part, but the impact is felt throughout the entire day. It’s not just about someone running the schedule, it’s about having the space to enjoy your wedding without worrying about what’s happening next.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Because you only get to experience it once. Your wedding day isn’t a practice run. You don’t get a do-over. It deserves your full attention, not your stress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Having a wedding coordinator means you can let go, trust the plan, and truly enjoy your day. You can be present, knowing someone is taking care of everything behind the scenes. And that, more than anything else, is what makes it all so special.</p>

<figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Venue: Flore House</figcaption>
</figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What is the role of a wedding coordinator?</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We manage the logistics and the details behind the scenes. We make sure the day runs smoothly, acting as the main point of contact for your suppliers and ensuring everything runs to schedule. A wedding coordinator also helps pre-empt the little things that can happen on the day, often before you even realise there was ever a potential hiccup. Most couples only plan one wedding in their lifetime, so everything is new. Even if you’re an event planner or project manager in everyday life, weddings are a whole different world.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Managing weddings is what we do day in, day out. It’s in our DNA. We know where things can wobble, what questions might pop up, and what needs thinking about in advance. So rather than risking it or trying to handle it all yourself, it just makes sense to trust someone who truly knows what they’re doing. That way, you can let go, relax, and properly enjoy your wedding day, exactly as it was meant to be enjoyed.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">(Seriously, it’s the difference between enjoying a glass of champagne with your girls in the morning and running around fixing things in your rollers.)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you want your wedding to feel relaxed, well looked after, and full of joy from start to finish, hiring a wedding coordinator really is one of the kindest things you can do for yourselves.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>What a year for “I do’s”!</strong>&nbsp;From secret elopements to over-the-top soirées, some of our favourite celebs truly outdid themselves. Whether it was multi-day extravaganzas or spontaneous vows, 2025 delivered an incredible line-up of weddings! More wedding inspo than we could possibly pin to a mood board! Ready to dive into the most breathtaking, buzz-worthy celebrations of the year? Here’s our look back at some of our favourite celebrity weddings of 2025!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Jeff-Bezos-768x1024.webp" alt="bride and groom

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Where else could we possibly begin but with what was arguably&nbsp;<em>the</em>&nbsp;most extravagant celebrity wedding of the 2025?! Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez said their vows during a lavish, three-day celebration in Venice. Their ceremony took place on the breathtaking island of San Giorgio Maggiore, which the couple hired exclusively for the occasion. Naturally, the guest list was a who’s who of global powerhouses, with icons like Oprah Winfrey and Bill Gates reportedly in attendance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lauren Sánchez stole the show in a couture gown adorned with&nbsp;<strong>180 silk chiffon–covered priest buttons</strong>, a dress fit for a royal wedding. Yet perhaps the most jaw-dropping detail of all was the wedding cake which was crafted by the legendary Parisian pastry mastermind&nbsp;<strong>Cédric Grolet</strong>. Rumour has it the cake might be the most expensive wedding cake ever created &#8211; we can only imagine!</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Becca Bloom and David Pownall</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="666" height="1024" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Becca-Bloom-666x1024.jpeg" alt="bride and groom

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">TikTok sensation Rebecca Ma &#8211; known online as&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beccaxbloom/?hl=en">Becca Bloom</a></strong>&nbsp;&#8211; married software engineer David Pownall in a wedding that looked straight out of a modern fairytale. Set against the dreamy backdrop of Lake Como, their summer celebration gave undeniable&nbsp;<em>Crazy Rich Asians</em>&nbsp;energy, combining whimsical romance with jaw-dropping luxury.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The ceremony featured spectacular towering floral installations, a mirrored aisle reflecting the shimmering lake views and spectacular bursts of colourful smoke cannons that transformed the setting into something almost cinematic. Even the rain, because, of course, Lake Como loves a dramatic moment couldn’t dull the magic. If anything, it added to the atmosphere, making for photos so beautiful they’ll likely serve as huge wedding inspo for years to come.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Georgia Toffolo and James Watt</strong></h4>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Georgia-Toffolo-1024x576.webp" alt="bride and groom

celebrity wedding 2025 " class="wp-image-4051" srcset="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Georgia-Toffolo-1024x576.webp 1024w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Georgia-Toffolo-980x551.webp 980w, https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Georgia-Toffolo-480x270.webp 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Georgia Toffolo and James Watt </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From lavish floral arrangements to supermarket daffodils, Georgia Toffolo’s wedding plans and comments caused quite the stir. If any celebrity wedding 2025 gave us a wedding with personality, it was this one! Georgia Toffolo’s big day sparked headlines, memes and admiration in equal measure. The reality star kept things spontaneous, reportedly telling guests to join only “if you can get here within 48 hours.” From there, the chaos and the charm began.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">On her way to the ceremony, she allegedly grabbed supermarket daffodils to use as flowers, and her cake was rumoured to be a last-minute DIY creation. The photos the couple shared were wonderfully unconventional: the groom wearing fishing waders and Georgia posing in a cream, off-the-shoulder fleece while clutching freshly caught lobsters. The result? A celebration that felt refreshingly authentic, quirky and full of personality. But we absolutely adore this playful take on a very traditional day.</p>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco</strong></h5>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Selena-Gomez.jpeg" alt="bride and groom

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco said “I do” in a beautifully intimate California ceremony this September. The couple both wore custom Ralph Lauren ensembles, blending timeless elegance with effortless modern romance. Their guest list was, unsurprisingly full of music icons with Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran reportedly giving speeches during their celebration.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">And if the speeches weren’t iconic enough, the ring bearer was none other than&nbsp;<em>Martin Short</em>. Yes,&nbsp;<em>that</em>&nbsp;Martin Short. The blend of classic style, star-studded storytelling, and celebrity sparkle made their wedding truly unforgettable.</p>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Dani Dyer and Jarrod Bowen</strong></h6>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="829" height="1024" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Dani-Dyer-829x1024.jpeg" alt="bride and groom 
wedding day 
celebrity wedding 2025 " class="wp-image-4053"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Dani Dyer and Jarrod Bowen</figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In May, Dani Dyer and footballer Jarrod Bowen tied the knot at the stunning Langley Hotel in Buckinghamshire. Their celebration oozed elegance, intimacy and was a true family affair. One of the most touching details? Dani’s father, Danny Dyer, walking her proudly down the aisle. Their children served as flower girls and page boy and the photos are absolutely stunning! </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The dreamy white Hydrangeas and roses helped created a hugely romantic vibe and the dreamy outdoor scenery gave the event an almost Bridgerton-esque charm – we are obsessed! This absolutely picturesque wedding is one we will remember for a long time.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Kristen Stewart and Dylan Meyer</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="932" height="1024" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Kristen-Stewart--932x1024.jpeg" alt="bride and bride

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Kristen Stewart and screenwriter Dylan Meyer opted for something entirely different and entirely&nbsp;<em>them</em>. The couple married over Easter weekend in an ultra-private celebration that unfolded partly at their Los Angeles home and partly at their favourite Mexican restaurant. The vibe? Relaxed, heartfelt, and effortlessly cool.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The wedding looks were some of the trendiest of the year: a sheer silk mini dress paired with a chic tweed set. No veils, no bouquets, and no bridesmaids just authenticity, comfort, and style. It’s the kind of wedding that proves simplicity can be just as striking as extravagance. This wedding could not have suited them as a couple more!&nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">&nbsp;<br><strong>Demi Lovato and Jordan Lutes</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="819" height="1024" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Demi-Lovato-819x1024.webp" alt="bride and groom

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From one California celebration to another! Demi Lovato and Jordan Lutes embraced full glamour, wearing not one but&nbsp;<em>three</em>&nbsp;spectacular outfits throughout their Santa Barbara wedding weekend. Demi stunned in two custom Vivienne Westwood gowns before changing into a tailored Lapointe suit that turned heads.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Their wedding included a rehearsal dinner, a romantic ceremony, and arguably the highlight being a special live performance by&nbsp;<strong>The Goo Goo Dolls</strong>. The couple’s first dance was choreographed and performed live by the band, making the moment unforgettable.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">&nbsp;<br><strong>Kim Cattrall and Russell Thomas</strong></h4>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Kim-Catrall--768x1024.webp" alt="bride and groom

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;Sex and the City&nbsp;star married her longtime partner in an intimate ceremony at Chelsea Old Town Hall. Just 12 guests attended the beautifully private celebration. The bride stunned in a classic Dior suit perfectly suited to the venue, while her new husband looked dapper in a custom Richard James design.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Reflecting on their relationship, Sarah once said, “We’ve been together almost 10 years now, and we’ve had a blast.” The couple first met in 2016 when she appeared on BBC Radio 4 and they clearly never looked back. A heart-warming love story to end a year of fabulous weddings!</p>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Sophie and Rhys</strong></h5>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://hannahroseweddings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Sophie-and-Rhys-621-683x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-4057"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Sophie and Rhys </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">And we had to save a special mention for one of our very own! This year, Sophie from our team married her now-husband Rhys at the enchanting Lapstone Barn in the Cotswolds. Their countryside celebration was the epitome of fairytale romance, complete with breathtaking florals, twinkling fairy lights and subtle touches of Disney magic woven throughout.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">After getting engaged on April Fools’ Day we are so happy to see the pair start their happily ever after! Surrounded by close family and friends this was a true love story come to life and we can’t wait to see more countryside fairytale weddings like this!&nbsp;</p>
