Absolutely fabulous

Our venue had let us down with putting up Christmas decorations for our wedding on the last Friday of November. I found JF Styling by accident and am I glad I did.
I spoke to Emma on the phone and she sent me their look book which gave me all sorts of ideas of what we could have. Emma was so understanding and really helped with Christmassy ideas. I had a meeting with Matthew, what a genius he he is, I knew it would all be perfect in his hands.
On the day Matthew made sure that we were happy with everything before he left. I had tears at everything he had done because it was all absolutely perfect and I was so overwhelmed by it.
We would absolutely recommend JF Styling, you can’t go wrong, everything will be perfect guaranteed.
Thank you so much team JF
Love Donna & Steve

Perfect Decor

Cannot speak any more highly of JF Styling - our ceremony room was decorated to perfection and our staircase looked incredible in our photos and we had help from them filming content too for our socials. Pure professionalism.

10/10 recommend!

Could not recommend JF Stlying more. They were so helpful from start to finish helping us decide what decor and flowers to have based on the colour scheme we had chosen. It was a massive relief having our decor and flowers arranged in one place and they made the process so easy for us.
The decor at our wedding was amazing, it looked so elegant and was exactly what we wanted. Our flowers too were beautiful and we got many compliments on the bouquets.
I’m so glad we chose JF Styling for our wedding and would recommend them to anyone! A professional, friendly team who are super talented.

Picture perfect!! 👌🏼

We got married at the beautiful Gosfield Hall in March 2025 and chose JF Styling to decorate our banquet tables, ceremony room,  signs, bouquets and buttonholes. Everything looked absolutely stunning — so many of our guests commented on how incredible it all was, and it genuinely took our breath away when we first walked in.
 
James and Emma were amazing from the very beginning. They listened carefully to what we wanted, offered thoughtful suggestions, and brought our vision to life better than we ever could have imagined. They went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and it truly showed.
 
From the elegant florals to the gorgeous finishing touches on the tables, the styling added real magic to our day. We’re so grateful to have had such a talented, kind, and professional team as part of our wedding. Thank you again, JF Styling — we highly recommend! C&A 28.03.2025

Stunning!!

Our daughter’s wedding couldn’t have looked more beautiful.
So many people commented on how stunning everything looked. All of the hard work beforehand was done by our daughter and husband to be, but we got to see the finished product and it simply could not have been better. The combination of a great location at the Kimpton and the attention to detail of this company were a perfect match. Thank you

Incredible

Thank you from the bottom of our heart for an absolutely incredible venue styling for our wedding at Gosfield Hall!
The staircase blew us away seeing it in person, the Grand Salon and wedding breakfast room looked remarkable!
Everything we envisioned and more you were able to bring to like!!! Absolutely INCREDIBLE.

I absolutely loved the video you shared with me in the bridal suite and the ones you have been posted on Instagram!

Thank you so so much

Spot on styling!

There is a reason why JF Styling win awards year on year! These guys are a must have for your wedding! James and Emma are two beautiful humans who take such care and detail of the planning process, they cannot do enough for you and the attention to detail is just spot on.

There are thorough prep meetings that go through step by step every single detail you want included, and they have a stunning showroom set up with so many different styles which really helps get your thoughts/ideas flowing.

Our day was perfect, JF also provided the fresh flowers for the bridal party which were just stunning. Once the venue was decorated, James took the time to come and show me some videos/pics of it all set up and when he showed me the ceremony room dressed, wow, it literally took my breath away!!! I got so many compliments and a lot of the guests couldn’t believe the flowers were silk. You must have James and the team help make your day perfect, you won’t regret it!

James/Emma, I can’t thank you enough for all your help leading up to and day of the wedding, it was all spot on. Much love.

100% Recommend

From the initial inquiry through to the wedding day, the service we received was amazing. I was so happy with how they executed my vision. It met my brief and more! James even recommended a way which I could re-purpose some of my ceremony flowers and use them again in the reception. We had so many compliments from guests on the overall look of the wedding. I found the team easy to communicate with and they always responded quickly to my queries. We also got to visit their showroom closer to the wedding date, so we could go through our design in person. I would 100% recommend JF Styling!

Completely Blown Away

We recently had a marquee wedding and starting with a blank canvas was quite daunting - I wanted to create a glamorous setting and straight after the marquee was installed I started to worry. Emma & James was reassuring that it would all come together, everything that we had planned & discussed leading up to the wedding, it would be amazing - and my god it was. I honestly can not Thank them and their whole team enough. Completely blown away with the finished look. It all starts with a meeting at the JF Show room where you can see various table set ups, all the different accessories. They are always just a phone call or a text message away. The week of the wedding I was a pain, texting Jenni every hour wanting to add this and double check that and I think at one point I was getting immediate responses at 9pm. I can’t thank you all enough and would highly highly recommend JF Styling to anybody getting married, I don’t know what I would have done without them. Thank you!!

Amazing!!!

Made the day so beautiful for us! It was really easy to go and visit the showroom to decide what we wanted, and any changes could be made until quite near the date (not that we needed to!). They made the venue absolutely stunning, and gave me a sneak peak to make sure I was happy prior to viewing it all with the guests there.
