What is your most memorable wedding?
Our favourite weddings are those when we really get to know our clients and see a bit of them on the wedding day. There's been several that stand out over the years and they're always down to the people. We worked on a beautiful intimate wedding for a couple who lived in Manhattan a couple of years ago, which involved creating a quintessential, elegant English marquee wedding. Think black tie, decadent tableware, manicured lawns and a stunning country house. It was a perfect summers day in England and we loved giving our American couple and their guests this slice of English glamour!

Describe your typical process with a couple.
The first thing we do is meet you! It's really important that we all get to know each other before we embark on planning a wedding together.
What is the most unusual thing you’ve been asked to plan?
Within one wedding we had to handle and arrange the arrival of two Alpacas, just at the right moment during a father's speech...that was a little unusual!
How do you ensure a stress-free wedding?
Wedding planning isn't always straight forward. As you start planning your wedding it can feel as though there is a never-ending list of things to be done, with the stress only fueled by Pinterest and wedding magazines giving you daily reminders of things you hadn’t yet thought of! It can be all too easy to get caught up in the stress and lose sight of the fun that you should be having while organising your wedding day!
