    A superb wedding planner who brought it all together

    We hadn’t planned on hiring a wedding planner but I’m so glad we did. Phoebe kept us on track with the build up to the wedding and she made decisions much easier. On the actual day she was a sense of calm organised and you can tell she knows her stuff. She was everywhere but nowhere to ever let anything bother me as the bride, I dont think I had to think or do anything on the day once she arrived! I would recommend her to anyone. She is also a delightful person to be around which helps!

    The Woman Who Made It All Happen

    Phoebe didn’t just coordinate our wedding - she gave us the priceless gift of being fully present on the most important day of our lives. From the very first meeting, her calm confidence and genuine warmth put us completely at ease. She embraced our quirky ideas (including a rather unusual entrance!) with enthusiasm and found creative ways to make them happen flawlessly.

    When the day started slipping behind schedule (thanks to some over-zealous speeches), we were blissfully unaware - because Phoebe was quietly working her magic behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly.

    We spent the entire day laughing, celebrating, and soaking up every moment without a single worry, and that is entirely down to Phoebe. She was our anchor, our problem-solver, and our biggest cheerleader. Every supplier adored her - one even said, ‘Phoebe is the best!’ when he heard she was our events manager, and we couldn’t agree more.

    Phoebe is so much more than a coordinator/events manager; she’s a calm presence in the chaos, a creative problem-solver, and an absolute joy to be around. We honestly couldn’t have done it without her, and we’ll be forever grateful. If you want a wedding where you can truly relax and savour every second, you need Phoebe by your side.

    Amazing from start to finish!

    Phoebe showed us around Pynes House for the first time and we were lucky enough to have her overseeing our day. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Phoebe is so calm and organised, subtly working through our timeline and ensuring the day went smoothly. She kept reminding us that it’s our wedding, we are the hosts, she’s just there to ensure all of our plans run smoothly. Perfectly put in our opinion and just what you want from an events coordinator.
    Just an all round lush lady, who knows her stuff and you can trust. We had nothing but compliments from our guests which wouldn’t have been made possible without all of the background work from Phoebe. We were able to be fully present, knowing we were in the best hands.
    She really looked after us and nothing was ever too much. Thank you Phoebe for making our day really special

    Thanks a million Phoebe!

    We were so incredibly lucky to have Phoebe as our stylist for our dream wedding in May at Pynes House in Devon in May 2025.

    Throughout the wedding planning process, she was incredibly warm, professional and helpful. Her work as part of the Pynes house team also meant that she was a fountain of knowledge when it came to the logistics of decorating our wedding breakfast.

    Although we worked primarily with her on wedding styling, as our on-the-day event coordinator she went above and beyond, providing invaluable advice (based on her extensive wedding planning experience) on various logistics in the run up to our big day. She often met with us out of hours to discuss, generously adapting to our busy schedules. We also appreciated her light-hearted approach and shared many laughs together.

    The evening before and on the big day, her organisational skills ensured that everything ran smoothly to time. Phoebe truly went above and beyond for us, and her experience and talent as a stylist, coordinator and wedding planner shone through.

    Thank you for all your help in making our big day so special, seamless and beautiful – we will always be grateful! We are sure the photos of Phoebe’s handiwork will speak for themselves.

    Beyond the call of duty

    I was blessed to have found a Fairy Godmother of a Wedding Planner who went out of her way to make sure my event was going to run successfully and smoothly.
    There is nothing I can say that anyone needing a Wedding Planner or someone to assist in any capacity linked to a Wedding event need look no further as she is truly the answer to your prayers.

    Phoebe is truly incredible!

    I think everyone finds planning a wedding slightly stressful but with Phoebe, she just made everything feel so easy. She provided a soothing and calming presence throughout and we will forever be grateful for everything she did from our first meeting back in July 23 to our wedding day in May this year. She isn't just a wedding planner, she ends up feeling like a close friend and someone you can rely on. We are so lucky we had Phoebe with us all the way - she is simply the best.
    We love you Phoebe

    Phoebe is amazing!

    Phoebe was quite simply perfect! From the moment we met her, her calm nature and genuine interest in us as a couple was so lovely and we knew she would be the wedding planner for us!
    Phoebe was brilliant at communicating with us, knew our venue so well and knew all of the answers to our many questions!
    As a bride, Phoebe was so calming in the build up to the ceremony and throughout the day kept things running so smoothly we didn’t have to worry about a thing!
    We can’t thank her enough for everything she did!

    Phoebe Stanway

    Phoebe was the wedding coordinator for our wedding in December and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to help make our big day truly the best day of our lives. At all stages in the run up to the day Phoebe was helpful, responsive and accommodating to any request. On the actual day it was so reassuring to know that Phoebe had every single detail in hand for the day to run seamlessly while being an incredibly calming presence for us and everyone involved including bridesmaids, groomsmen, parents etc...

    We could not recommend Phoebe and Elisabeth Shell events highly enough!

    Incredible

    Phoebe was the coordinator for our wedding at Pynes House this August, and we could not have done the day without her! From first meeting her at our Pynes House tour, to the planning sessions, to the weekend itself - Phoebe brought her wealth of experience to make the whole planning process and logistics on the day super seamless. She was absolutely incredible in handing all the big moments and small details, we didn't have to worry at all and just enjoyed our day. Special shout out to when my husband got a drink spilled on him and Phoebe came to the rescue with the hairdryer! We cannot recommend Phoebe enough for a safe pair of hands for your wedding planning/coordination, she's amazing and also an absolute pleasure to work with!

    100% Recommend!

    Phoebe was absolutely amazing and made everything about the wedding planning so easy. On the actual day Phoebe had everything under control so that we were able to not think about anything and enjoy the day to the fullest. Thank you so much for making it extra special!
