Holly was our wedding co-ordinator at Mapperton house and gardens, back in July 2024, she is very organised, professional, kind, and she thought of all the minor details that we may have overlooked without her help and expertise. We would highly recommend Holly when looking for a wedding planner.

Holly was incredible!!
Holly our wedding co-ordinator at Mapperton was incredible, so kind and understanding.
No question was too big and she helped us quickly on any wedding advice / help that we needed. We really appreciated her being there through anything that we needed, she was amazing on the day and it all ran smoothly which was completely all her hard work but she was also incredibly helpful leading up to the wedding day too.
She helped so much & we truly appreciate her!
She really understood our vision. Highly recommend working with Holly to make the best wedding day EVER!!! :)

Holly is a miracle worker and we couldn't have managed without her. 10/10!
I cannot recommend Holly enough. She is such an expert and made the whole experience of planning the wedding so lovely and stress free. She has done so many weddings that she was able to bring all her expertise in terms of best timings, running order etc to make our day as smooth as possible.
She worked tirelessly (and invisibly!) in the background on the day making sure everything ran to plan. Any hiccups she dealt with and my husband and I were blissfully unaware.
She is also just a happy, warm and lovely person who is a pleasure to have around on your special day.
I could do with Holly organising every aspect of my life to be honest, as reflected in the fact it has taken me 6 months to write this review!
Thanks so much Holly for everything you do!

Holly is the best, we loved working with her!
Holly was wonderful and from the very beginning, we felt we were in safe hands. Holly is very profession and was always very responsive when we had questions, giving great advice when we weren't sure about certain details. She is an incredibly organised person and made the process so easy. We loved our meetings with Holly - we always left the meetings feeling reassured! On our wedding day, she made sure everything ran smoothly so that we didn't have to worry about anything. Words can't express how grateful I was to work with someone like Holly! Holly is a great person - she's great fun and she really cares, and that shows in her attention to detail and commitment to make sure your best day is the best. We appreciate everything she did so much! Thanks again, Holly!

Simply the best wedding planner you could ever want - Holly will make sure your day is perfect
When we found Holly, we knew she was the only person we wanted to plan our special day! It was clear from the outset that every wedding for Holly was unique and she really took the time to get to know us as a couple and get to know our vision for the day. Nothing was too big an ask for Holly, whatever your dreams for the day she will make it happen.
One of the advantages of having an amazing wedding planner is that they often think of things that you may not have considered. With Holly she was so amazing at pointing us in the right direction in terms of considering logistics or introducing us to incredible suppliers that she knows we can rely on. When it came to the wedding weekend itself Holly was beyond perfect in making sure our day ran seamlessly and advocating for our vision with suppliers to make sure plans didn't deviate.
With Holly helping to plan your wedding you will be able to focus on the things that matter and enjoy the process. We both loved our meetings with Holly and it helped us to get excited in the countdown to the big day. She will take your ideas and run with them - becoming your biggest cheerleader along the way. A perfect example of this is when we spoke about how we wanted a club style entrance to our evening reception and cake cutting, something Holly coordinated perfectly (see the photos for yourself!).
If you want a day that is as unique as you are as a couple and a planner who makes everything feel seamless, don't hesitate to get in touch with Holly!

Lifesaver!
Holly was the wedding planner we didn't know we needed! She calmly steered us through the unknown during the planning, helping with complete professionalism at a particularly tricky hiccup and then on the day she was utterly fantastic. You simultaneously didn't realise she was there, but she was also always there. Particular skill being handing out the champagne to us regularly. She was no nonsense with our suppliers, proactive in her communication and really switched on. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

The best of the best!
We cannot thank Holly enough for making our day perfect! From start to finish, she was incredible and one of the reasons we chose the venue.
She is amazing at what she does and makes you feel relaxed during a stressful time!

Holly is a dream 🤍
I can honestly not give Holly enough praise. From the moment we meet we felt welcomed and understood in what we wanted to achieve for our day.
Nothing was too much trouble and Holly went beyond our expectations.
Communication was perfect, we were in constant talks with the lead up to the wedding. The week of the wedding Holly was just incredible with anything that came up or needed organising. The stress was totally taken away from us.
Coordination on the day was spot on, had a little blip with guests late arrival but Holly kept everything calm and running smoothly.
Holly wasn’t just our coordinator, she became a key part to our day. We have gained a friend.
We will forever be grateful for the day you created for us. Thank you Holly 🤍

The best event planner ever! 10/10
Holly was an absolute star from start to finish. Throughout the planning process, she took our scattered ideas and effortlessly crafted the perfect timeline. Her enthusiasm and expertise shone through, and her thoughtful suggestions made all the difference. Holly made us feel comfortable asking any question, no matter how small, and never once made us feel silly—her knowledge of the wedding industry is unmatched.
In the lead-up to the big day, she was hands-on and proactive. During the prep day, Holly managed deliveries, coordinated vendors, and even took on tasks so we could relax and enjoy our evening without feeling rushed. We truly appreciated her support and dedication.
On the wedding day itself, Holly orchestrated everything flawlessly. Nothing went wrong, and if there were any small issues, she handled them swiftly, ensuring the day ran smoothly without needing our involvement. Her attention to detail and calm demeanor made all the difference.
Holly genuinely felt like a friend throughout this journey. We cannot recommend her enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect.

Above & beyond!
It’s really quite difficult to put into words how wonderful Holly is & the impact she made to our day.
From the moment we met Holly, myself and my now Husband felt so at ease and that we were chatting to an old friend. Holly understood our vision, gave so much advice, tips and general guidance to ensure our day was perfect - and that it was!
The day before and on the day of, Holly was a friend, working behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly which allowed us to have the most perfect day - even running back & forth to grab my second shoes & even help me take my petty coat off to enjoy dinner more!
When we think back at our wedding day, we’re filled with so much warmth & love with all our friends and family still a year on talking about the day - a lot thanks to Holly. As a general manager of a business, my day to day is to worry about the small details for others, but Holly was so incredible that I was truly just the bride with no worries or cares, just excitement & love for the most perfect day - something that I was worried wouldn’t be able to do!
We cannot recommend and thank Holly enough for such a beautiful, stress free & utterly perfect day.
Thank you

Couldn’t ask for more!
We were beyond fortunate to have Holly as our wedding planner for our August 2024 wedding at Mapperton House & Gardens. Holly exceeded every expectation we could have had and turned our wedding into a flawless, unforgettable day.
From the moment we started planning, Holly’s organisation shone through in every detail. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of wedding planning, especially when it comes to this stunning venue, and her attention to detail ensured that everything flowed smoothly. But beyond her professionalism, Holly is one of the friendliest, most approachable people you could hope to work with. Her warmth and dedication quickly made her feel more like a friend than a planner.
Holly’s passion for her work is evident; she truly loves what she does, and it shows. She was always available, day or night, to answer any question or handle any concern, making the whole process stress-free. Her support and calm demeanour allowed us to enjoy every moment of our wedding, knowing that everything was in her expert hands.
Thank you Holly! We couldn’t have done it without you 🤍🤍
