Meet the Team:

We’re Alexandra and Honour McAuly-Brand, sisters raised in the Scottish Highlands.

Alex brings a considered, design-led approach to styling, drawing on her background in architecture, graphic design and art to create cohesive and thoughtfully curated spaces. Honour contributes years of experience within events, a strong eye for detail, and a calm, organised approach that ensures every element is carefully managed. Together, we offer a balance of creativity and structure, combining design with thorough planning to create events that are beautifully executed.

Wedding Services:

~ On-the-Day Coordination

The biggest thing couples often don’t anticipate isn’t the schedule; it’s how hard it can be to stay present on the day itself. Without someone managing all the moving parts, you can quickly become the go-to person for every question. That’s where we come in. With our experienced support, we ensure everything comes together exactly as envisioned. We take that weight off your shoulders, manage suppliers, oversee logistics, and handle any behind-the-scenes details. Allowing you to stay in the moment, and truly experience your celebration... not manage it.

~ Partial Planning and Coordination

With so many moving parts, on top of busy lives, feeling overwhelmed or stuck is completely normal. This is where having experienced support makes all the difference.

Wherever you are in the process, we step in to organise and complete the remaining elements, bringing everything together and giving you the structure to move forward with confidence. We ease the pressure, share the load, and fill in the gaps, bringing everything back into focus and ensuring both the planning process and your wedding day feel as enjoyable as they should.

~ Full Planning and Coordination

Whether you’ve been dreaming about your wedding for years, or the idea of planning something so significant feels a little overwhelming, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Working closely with you, we guide you step by step through every stage of your wedding, from the initial concept and design through to supplier sourcing, management, and delivery on the day. We shape a celebration that feels exactly as you envisioned it, easing the demands of planning and creating a journey that is enjoyable.

Design Services:

~ Bespoke Venue Design

Centred on creating settings that feel personal and reflective of each couple we work with, we approach every celebration individually. We focus on crafting a well-balanced design that draws from your story and the natural character of your venue, taking the time to understand your ideas, inspiration, and the atmosphere you wish to create.

~ Design Styling & Extras

Dedicated to the finer details. The pieces that ensure every element feels intentional and aligned with your overall aesthetic. We design bespoke stationery and on the day details that complement your theme and create a cohesive visual journey. From invitations and save the dates to welcome signage, table plans, and place cards, each element is carefully considered and entirely your own.

~ Venue Set up & Styling Support

Styled by you, set up by us. Designed for couples who have sourced or created their own décor, and wish for trusted hands to bring it all together on the day. We understand how much time, creativity, and care goes into curating the aesthetic of your day, and our role is to honour that effort by ensuring everything is styled exactly as you envisioned.

From the first spark of an idea to the final moment, we’re here to bring it all to life with you. If you feel we might be the right fit for you, we would love to hear from you.
