An incredibly valuable supplier for all dry-hire weddings!

When we first started planning for our wedding we were unsure if we would need a wedding planner. And being on a tight budget, we weren't sure if it would be the best use of our funds. After we spoke with Sian we quickly decided she was worth it, and it was 100% money well spent.

Sian was professional and friendly throughout, her communication between us and suppliers was fantastic. At times when our own planning momentum had dropped, she quickly popped up with loads of helpful suggestions. Whether it was a DIY project or organising suppliers she was fantastic every step of the way. Her knowledge of the industry, venues and suppliers was invaluable. Especially with all the legal jargon that comes with the contracts!
Any time we needed a catch up, or had any concerns she ensured we had a call and quickly eased our worries.

In the run up to the wedding, even though we had an unexpected bereavement and had to make late changes to our plans, Sian took everything in her stride, and her supportive and empathetic attitude to us, our families, and guests on the day really meant a lot.

We highly recommend Sian and cannot thank her enough!

Sian is an incredibly warm-hearted, open-minded, and professional wedding planner who goes above and beyond

We found Sian via Hitched. After having a few virtual calls with various wedding planners, we immediately knew Sian was the right fit for us. Her can-do attitude and openness are fantastic, and she provided us with a wealth of great recommendations and excellent options for a variety of suppliers. She truly considers every detail.

We highly recommend Sian, particularly for couples planning a wedding from abroad, as we did.

The best person you’ll find in the UK to organise your wedding

The coolest wedding planner in the world! Sian helped us through the entire wedding journey - for our two events with attendance of 150 people from around the world. She was incredibly organised, well connected to the best suppliers, worked very hard to save us money and always patiently educated us on the planning process. A true delight to work with, and we would highly recommend to anyone looking to plan the wedding of their dreams!!

Absolutely Outstanding Wedding Organizer – Highly Recommend Sian!

I literally could not recommend Sian more as a wedding organizer. From the moment we started planning, she was with us every step of the way, making the entire process of arranging our wedding incredibly easy to understand and navigate. Her expertise, attention to detail, and passion for creating the perfect day were evident in everything she did.

Sian transformed what could have been a stressful experience into something truly enjoyable. She was a calming and friendly presence, always available to answer our questions and offer guidance. Her warm, approachable nature made her not just a fantastic wedding planner but also a wonderful guest at our ceremony.

Our wedding day was the happiest day of our lives, and we owe so much of that to Sian's hard work and dedication. She went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the moment.
If you're looking for a professional, talented, and reliable wedding organizer, Sian is worth every penny. Her services are invaluable, and we will be recommending her to all of our friends and family. She truly made our dream wedding a reality, and we couldn't be more grateful!

Knowledgable, Organised and Funny

We found Sian through Hitched and she has been amazing throughout the planning process. We could not have done it without her. Our guests are still raving about how well the wedding was planned and how much they enjoyed themselves. She guided us through what was a difficult and emotional time, through all the ups and downs she gave us amazing advice and was incredibly empathetic, always with a dose of humour! She saw our vision, kept us on track and in budget! She is worth her weight in gold.

Game changer!

We were in two minds as to whether we needed a toastmaster, it was only my mum encouraging me to look into it as we were nervous about the flow of the day and potentially being stressed by timings on the day, that made me consider it. However I really didn't want a traditional man you'd expect in this kind of role hollering at our guests, it wasnt the vibe i was after! So when we found Sian we knew we were so lucky, she was exactly what we needed, hoped for and so much more. She's a charming lovely person who we warmed to straight away. Her professional approach and understanding of what makes a wedding flow, along with her vast experience really made her stand out. We had an initial call and immediately booked Sian as our Toast Master, she filled me with confidence from the off and I knew on the day she could handle anything and could keep things running smoothly.
Sian was so polite and lovely to the point that all our guests commented on how great she was! We couldn't have wished for more!
From my perspective she really helped make our day, solving problems and keeping everything on time. Listening to our needs and concerns, its the little details and top tips shared too which were invaluable. So many worries creep into your head in the weeks leading up to the wedding and she really helped us to organise suppliers and settle the nerves.
We cannot thank Sian enough and absolutely recommend her to anyone who is considering a modern day Toast Master!

Our own fairy godmother for the big day!

Our own fairy godmother for the big day!! Sian was fantastic from beginning to end and made sure every detail was thought of and taken care of. She made the whole experience of planning a wedding very enjoyable and took away the stress. Her knowledge was invaluable and thought of things we would have never considered. She ensured the day ran smoothly and that everyone knew where to go, what was happening etc. Overall, a dream to work with and truly made the day fantastic!

Superb from start to finish!

My wife and I had asked Sian to be our toastmaster for our wedding - she was FANTASTIC from start to finish and a pleasure to work with. Extremely easy to get along whilst providing some excellent advice for us on the day. Sian was extremely detail orientated and ensured everything on the day ran on time, working seemlessly with all our suppliers but was also a calming presence for my wife and I. The event literally wouldn't have been a success without her our families are extremely grateful. All the best Sian and thank you again.

Hire her early is the only tip!!!

She is simply the best! She knows what she’s doing and she makes the magic happen! We hired her as our wedding day planner and she was tremendously helpful throughout! She recommends reliable suppliers and you can just totally depend on her! She saved us a lot of time to go through the details with her wisdom about the industry inside out. She is simply the best and if there is only one tip - we would say hire her early so you can avoid all the planning stress as much as possible! And she is just so lovely and easy to work with! She does not push you to go with her plans or tell you what to do, but she will just simply always find the best way to make your dream come true and bring into life whatever plan you had in mind! And believe us, her tips and recommendations are very very helpful!

On the day Coordination

Everything about our wedding day was incredible and we owe so much of this to Sian! Honestly, at the start of the process we weren’t even sure if we needed a dedicated wedding planner but Sian made us realise that having such an organised, thorough and personable wedding coordinator is a complete game-changer. It would have been so much more difficult without her! The more we met her spoke to her, the less stressed we were about the wedding and it even feels we became good friends! I definitely recommend her to anyone getting married in the future.

A wedding planner who is better than a dream!

We approached Sian at the initial stages of our wedding planning process feeling uncertain about whether we would want to have a wedding planner. We had been through a few consultations with several wedding planners but as soon as we spoke with Sian, we felt instantly at ease.

Sian helped us plan our wedding from the outset - she made herself available day in and out to answer any questions that we had and to calm our anxieties - whether it was around wedding dresses, decoration, music, Sian was an absolute treasure trove of advice and guidance. Sian pre-empted every circumstance right up to the smallest of details on the day, like keeping aside canapes for my husband and I to enjoy on our wedding day - a moment my husband and I still cherish. It really goes to show how caring and diligent Sian is, not just with planning a wedding, but for giving us the opportunity to have intimate and special moments that made the day our own. We had numerous compliments about our wedding day with our guests being in absolute awe of Sian's planning and coordination on the day.

We have really missed speaking with Sian as she practically became a member of our family during the planning process. We couldn't recommend a better partner to plan the wedding of your dreams!

Sian really saved the day!

We were looking for an on-the-day coordinator and we had spoken to a few event planners. All great, but Sian stood out head and shoulders above the rest. She was very frank with us from the get-go and offered really valuable guidance in our very first meeting.
On the day, she proved to be exceptional and honestly, I'm not sure our day would have been anywhere near as good without her. She really and truly saved the day on a number of occasions. She's really personable and kind, she knows her stuff and she just gets things done. If you are looking for a very safe pair of hands, look no further. Have been recommending her to anyone and everyone that will listen. Thank you so much, Sian. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to fully convey how grateful we are for everything that you did to make our day so special.

Absolutely Amazing

Sian was an absolutely amazing wedding planner! From the first time we spoke to her we knew it was the perfect fit. She took her time to understand our needs and culture, and went above and beyond the call of duty. We only booked her for the on the day coordination services, but she knew how stressful the planning process was and stepped in way ahead of time to help with the vendors, our wedding stationary and so much more! She was available 24/7 and helped us with even the smallest of details. Her attention to detail, quick wit, and extensive contacts helped us get the best of the best. For such a short planning experience (she helped us plan this in 4 months with a guest count of 335 people) she took so much burden from us, and really made the experience easier.

The day turned out absolutely beautiful, by far one of the best days of our lives! And the team she brought to support on the day were perfect.

Overall, I couldn’t recommend Sian enough, she was a stranger that became family.

Sian, thank you for your care, kindness and dedication to Femi and I. You were literally the perfect fit for us, and we already miss you terribly!

Top Notch Party Co-ordinator

My partner and I choose Sian for “on-the-day” co-ordination for our Civil Partnership Reception. I had the time to do a lot of the party planning myself but very soon realised that I would need help in the run up to the reception and on the day. I am so glad I found Sian to do this for me.
She is super organised, a great communicator, has loads of energy and lots of experience and ideas. She had worked with our venue before which was a bonus. Sian also found a great DJ for us who was exactly right for the age group of our guests.
It was great to know there was someone in the background if I needed any advice in the lead up to the party. Sian also managed all the supplier co-ordination during the week before our big day which gave me much needed down time. I hadn’t realised how important this would be.
On the day she made sure everything ran smoothly and was always on hand if we needed anything. If you are looking for a top-notch wedding co-ordinator – look no further.

A personal touch

Sian is an excellent wedding planner, she is everything we expected and needed her to be! Through the whole process she kept us focused, added in personal touches and ideas and saved us money where possible. She has a friendly demeanour and always goes the extra mile. Your wedding day is one of the happiest days of your lives, not only did Sian deliver on that, but she made it a totally stress free day for us. If you want someone organised, meticulous and attentive, go with Sian!
