We booked Ella 18 months in advance, and from the very first phone call, I knew we were going to get along brilliantly. (You spend a lot of time with your suppliers — it's so important to find someone you click with!)

Ella visited our site early on and gave us some invaluable pointers to get things moving a year before the wedding — which was such a help, as we really didn’t have a clue where to start. Throughout the whole planning process, she was always just a phone call away, even for my silliest questions — and honestly, that reassurance made such a difference.

In the week leading up to the wedding, Ella began setting up, which gave us time to see the space come to life and plan where everything else would go. Setup day was during a heatwave, and the wedding day brought torrential rain and wind… but none of that mattered the Tipis stand strong in any weather and provide a gorgeous space no matter what the elements are throwing at you outside.
We had booked Ella to coordinate the day as well as do the tipis and décor, and thank goodness we did — she handled everything with such calm and professionalism. The whole timeline had to change due to the weather, but she took it all in her stride, and none of the guests knew any different.

The tipis are absolutely stunning — they created such a magical and unique atmosphere. The décor Ella provided gave the most luxurious boho feel, it was exactly what we envisioned. We’d originally booked garden games, but because of the rain & wind, Ella pivoted without hesitation and had supplied a whole basket of blankets instead. It was amazing! I had no idea how much our guests would love that. She has an incredible ability to foresee what people will need before they even know it themselves.

Ella was the calm in the storm — quite literally. Her presence the day before and on the day itself was grounding and invaluable. I honestly can’t imagine our wedding without her.

Even the tables and chairs were better than anything I’ve seen at other weddings — everything was just so thoughtfully chosen and beautifully styled. Our guests haven’t stopped commenting on how stunning the tipis, decor, and overall vibe were.

It truly is a wedding we’ll never forget, and our guests won’t either. Ella — you, and your beautiful tipis, are to thank for that. 💛

Ella and her team came recommended by a good friend and they did not disappoint.
Talking to her from the beginning I knew we were on the same page and that I could trust her to create a wedding space for us that really reflected the vibe we wanted.
When I walked in I was blown away. It really was perfect. We received so many compliments, but the best comment was from a friend who said “this is so you” I knew then that Ella had got everything spot on.

True to the cliche, our wedding day was the best day of our lives, and Ella was a huge part of that: providing the gorgeous tipi that formed the bedrock of our vision, cooking the most INCREDIBLE slow-cooked, locally sourced food (everyone raved about it), and helping out in countless other ways too. I will recommend her til the day I die.

From our first talk with Eleanor, she made us feel special. She helped us form our dream wedding into a reality. The tippee was absolutely beautiful and all the extras were the cherry on top. The Stars and Canvas team went above and beyond there post to ensure the day was perfect. We cannot recommend them enough. We may have several more wedding's just to use them again!! LOVE LOVE LOVE

Ella and Iain were absolute stars!!! The went above and beyond to ensure that our day was special - even battling through 5 days of biblical weather to ensure our wedding was perfect! We had the bamboo pergola, festoon lighting, twinkly lighting, deck chairs, whisky barrels and tables (as you can see from the photos). Ella and Iain transformed our garden into a beautiful, atmospheric and extremely romantic setting for our wedding garden party (approx 90 guests). The bamboo pergola was so popular, we think every single guest insisted that we make it a permanent feature!

The service received from Ella and Iain was second to none and we would 100% use and recommend to everyone! They ensured that we were always happy and would make suggestions on what we could do, which really accelerated our decor/design for our wedding. Thank you guys! You are incredible! We had the best day and all of your work and garden transformation made our dream a reality!

Ella and Iain are two of life's most amazing people. Super lovely, experienced and problem solve in a cool calm and collected way when challenges naturally come up. From the very start Ella totally got the wedding brief. We wanted casual, boho, surfer vibes. She put together very easy to understand quotes, different packages at different price points. If anything she undersells what she has available. She also wanted to make our wedding as personal and perfect as possible and i really felt that she gave her all to deliver on that. She is forward coming with interior design and comes forwards with ideas and suggestions of what will work and look good for the price you are after. She doesn't book back-to-back events so there is plenty of time for setting up, decorating and getting the tipi looking beautiful. The team she uses to put up and take down were also very friendly and a delight to have around our house. Ella has a whole warehouse of decorative items, that she doesn't let out to other people, so you have pull pick of what is available last minute if needed, which was another massive plus for us. Ella really went above and beyond for us. The tipis (we had two big ones) looked amazing and were just right for what we wanted. Rustic and boho. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her and having looked at a lot of companies, Ella's felt the most personable and she offers way more than just the tipis - whisky barrels (which she agreed to price match for me), festoon lighting, sofa area (definitely recommend opting for this), rugs etc.
She is a lovely person and delivered an incredible service for us.

I set out with an idea in my head to give my wife-to-be a relaxed/laid back, trendy, mainly outdoor English country garden themed reception.
She had left it up to me… and. I thought I knew what I wanted. With a few weeks to go the weather became dreadful, i panicked, started doubting everything and lost sight of the vision i had set out with .
That s where Ella (and Iain) stepped in. I obviously wanted everything to be perfect but had a limited budget! They “held my hand” throughout and delivered me the wedding reception I’d dreamed of. I supplied my own marquee…. And they bought it to life!!!
I had a few mini breakdowns in the days leading up to it. They were patient, kind and got me back on track. They came up with really creative ideas that I hadn’t considered and delivered them quickly and efficiently.

(And the sun stayed out all day in the end)

Thank you so much Star & Canvas. I will be eternally grateful.

Was super impressed with how professional and friendly the team were. It was a pleasure working with them!

The Star and Canvas team succeeded brilliantly in bringing to life our vision for our small but very special event.
Ella seems to bring her own magic and passion to any occasion and so much of her own input and attention to detail really made our night so beautiful and unforgettable.
I cannot fault the exemplary performance of all the lovely team and the beautifully presented tent and garden so am very happy to recommend this company without hesitation.

I was so nervous about our wedding as (to be honest) I was a bit of a Bridezilla and wanted everything to be perfect…but on a budget! I felt so lucky to come across Ella and her team who calmly and confidently got on with it, coming up with really creative solutions and keeping everything on track as I flapped about!
The space looked absolutely stunning - the team created beautiful whimsical dried flower displays, gorgeous lighting and the flooring was much better than anything I’ve seen in a tipi before. Great for dancing - which is all I had to worry about on the day!

Thank you so much - I don’t think you can put a value on having people like this around you on your special day!

I had an amazing experience with the tipi and equipment hire team. Their communication was brilliant, and the entire process was efficient. I highly recommend their services!

From the first day we met with Ella through to the actual day we felt in such safe hands. The attention to detail, care and consideration were amazing. It felt so personal. The team on the day were incredible. We couldn't have asked for more.

We can never thank Star and Canvas enough for hosting a wedding we never dreamt possible. Their tipi set up was a rustic maze with unexpected adventure around every corner. The dried flower installation created colour and vibrancy without the expense or waste of fresh flowers. All the lighting created the perfect atmosphere and the fire pits gave all our guests warmth and comfort. Star and Canvas were with us for every step of the planning process, taking the stress out of every moment and ensuring a smooth journey. We are forever grateful ❤️

Before we got married our biggest worry was that we wouldn't have time to enjoy our big day. We were so lucky to have been recommended Star & Canvas by a friend who had gone to a wedding they were supplying for. We had such a fabulous day and it was so stress free. Eleanor took our dreams and made them come true. We booked up a full package (tipi, furniture, flowers & catering) The tipi looked out of this world, the food was devine and everything looked just perfect... we couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Star & Canvas for delivering such a greaaaat service! xxx
