Alternative Weddings By Beth Atton de Sa

ABOUT

ALTernative Events Co. is for the modern, cool, non-trad couple.

My ideal clients are the couples that hate cookie-cutter weddings. It’s so simple – you’ve been to loads of events that seem like a repeat of the last and you want an injection of creativity for your special day. You’re not particularly religious and you are not looking for a trad wedding. You’re looking for someone you can trust, and who can be a friend to you throughout the planning process. You will have your own online platform to plan and keep an eye on everything, as well as my many years of expertise. As you can see from my reviews, most couples consider booking a coordinator, as the best decision they made on their big day, to ensure a stress free and enjoyable day with their new bride/husband.

Personal ceremonies, LDBTQIA+ weds, pagan-esque practices, alternative or boho decorations, non-traditional format, themed events, unique and eclectic venues, rule and ground-breaking practices and new ideas – that’s a bit of me. I also love city weddings and including your furry friends in the festivities.

SERVICES

I offer a full plan - help and guidance from post engagement all the way through to waving you off on your honeymoon. (I also offer sten do planning and honeymoon planning!)

A partial plan - you've found your venue, but need help with the rest. (a 'straight away' option, and a 6 weeks before option)

On the day plan - you just need someone to plan and coordinate on the day, you've booked everything and made all of your decisions.

Let's get cracking!

Big love x

You need Beth!

A decision you won’t regret – you need Beth! We originally didn’t think we needed a wedding planner – we thought we could handle it ourselves and save the cost. But because our venue was a public hall, we needed a coordinator, which led us to Beth at Alt Events. From the very first conversation, she filled us with confidence and even showed us how she could actually save us money. Hiring her turned out to be the best decision we made for our wedding.
Beth took all the stress off our shoulders. Every email, every bit of communication went through her, which made everything so much less overwhelming. She even managed the setup and take down at the venue, which meant the stress for us and our families was kept to an absolute minimum. Not only did she make the process easier, but she also got us better deals and options than we could have found on our own. For example, we wanted a band, and she sourced us better and more affordable choices than we ever expected.
On the day itself, she was incredible. She managed everything seamlessly, and we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. We were able to just enjoy the day knowing it was all in her hands. By the end, she didn’t just feel like our wedding planner – she felt like a friend.
We couldn’t recommend Beth highly enough. She made the whole experience amazing.

Say YES to the BETH!

Whilst I haven't personally used Beth's service as I'm not married (maybe one day), I have to say that she is a joy to work with. She is very professional with amazing ideas and she gets results.

I have now worked with her three times as a DJ with more bookings in the pipeline and I have loved them all.

To anyone looking for a creative wedding planner to turn your special day into a perfect one, look no further than ALT Events.

You need Beth!!!

Are you planning a DIY wedding? If so, you need Beth. No, absolutely, you need her if you want to feel relaxed on your wedding day and able to take it all in, while knowing that absolutely everything is in hand. You will also make a friend in the process - it was amazing to have Beth by our side as we went through what could have been quite a stressful process.

We first met Beth about a year and a half out from our June 2024 wedding and we instantly got on so well. We had a pretty clear idea for the theme and location, but really felt we needed help in making it all a reality: finding the right suppliers, knowing where to save and where to splurge and in thinking of all the little details that make the day run seamlessly.

Beth went above and beyond for us from the start, working with us throughout the process to make sure everything was as we wanted. Beth has a vast network in the wedding and hospitality industry and made sure our suppliers matched our vibe and budget. Many of our guests commented that the ceremony and food were some of the best they’d ever experienced at weddings and these were both suppliers that Beth recommended. If you’re concerned about the cost of having a wedding planner – don’t be. Beth helped us save money across the board, so our overall budget didn’t change, but we had complete peace of mind throughout the process.

Where Beth really comes into her own is during a crisis! We had a few, none of them Beth’s fault, just to be clear! On each occasion, Beth already had a Plan B (and C!) ready to go, or she had already solved the issue. From having to change our ceremony location due to a rogue BMX festival (no, really…) to sorting a new stage a day before the wedding when a supplier couldn’t deliver due to personal circumstances, Beth got it sorted. She even drove halfway to Liverpool the morning before the wedding to source us a new free lindr machine (you need this to pour beer) because the one at our venue had the wrong connectors for the kegs we bought. I can’t imagine how stressed out we would have been if it had been up to us to find a crucial piece of specialist equipment less than 24 hours before the wedding, but it was all fine due to Beth’s ingenuity and tenacity.

Thanks to Beth, we had happy guests, drinks flowing, seamless service and a day that we’ll look back on with so much joy for the rest of our lives. Thanks so much, we couldn’t have done it without you!!

Love,
Mark and Jules

Fantastic Experience

Beth is fantastic! We had our wedding last year and couldn't have had a better day! Both beforehand and on the day, Beth took care of everything that was a worry to us. She took the off both of us, so that we could relax and enjoy the day. We would highly recommend that if anyone is looking at getting married, speak to Beth!

Beth was so super helpful when I was planning my wedding. With two small children, a partner working overseas and trips here there and everywhere it was impossible for me to plan the finer details and how the day would be coordinated by myself! Beth has so much experience in the service industry, she helped me figure out how to find good suppliers, work out exactly what we needed at what time and pull all the strings together so that the day went off without a single hitch! A DIY tipi wedding was a huge undertaking and Beth had it all figured out - each supplier worked briliantly with one another. Beth even helped me decorate the tipis and clear down the following day. I would recommend Beth's services to anyone who wanted to plan a completely unique and bespoke wedding day. Thanks to Beth the day was really professional and seamless. We couldnt have done it without you Beth, thank you so much!!
