WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY...
We want to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to Linzi for making our wedding journey nothing short of incredible. Having the full wedding planning package was truly a lifesaver for us. From start to finish, Linzi was a constant source of support and calm, expertly guiding us through every step of the process. What should have been an overwhelming experience became an enjoyable one, thanks to her professionalism and warm approach. Our regular catch-ups … helped us stay on track, organized, and—most importantly—sane!
The best part of having the full wedding planning package was knowing that no detail was too small for Linzi’s attention. Her proactive nature meant that any potential hiccup was handled before we even knew about it, allowing us to completely relax and be present on our wedding day. The Farm (our venue) looked breathtaking, and everything ran like clockwork, thanks to her seamless coordination.
Being overseas during the planning process could have been a logistical nightmare, but Linzi made it so easy. She managed site visits on our behalf, provided regular updates, and kept us in the loop every step of the way. Her communication was always timely and clear, making the distance feel like no issue at all. In the end, our day was absolutely perfect, and we know we couldn’t have done it without her. We are endlessly grateful for Linzi’s expertise, dedication, and kindness.
James and Jennie – Newark Marquee Wedding – May 2024
Hands down, working with Linzi is the best decision we made! Linzi’s knowledge, supplier network, and attention to detail paired with her fab personality and a killer spreadsheet made planning our wedding so much fun! We had the most perfect day, we loved every single second, as did our guests and we have Linzi to thank for that. Louise and Tom – Rutland Water Marquee Wedding – June 2023
“Linzi came on board as our wedding planner about halfway through, definitely one of the best decisions we made. We had already secured most of our suppliers but needed guiding through what was becoming a stressful never-ending list of ‘to dos.’ We were having an outdoor Tipi wedding and how lucky were we that this was Linzi’s area of expertise ! Linzi knew and had previously collaborated with our suppliers, but also had a never-ending list of her own, managing to find us a styling company who could source ALL our …somewhat quirky requirements. We had regular meetings and were never rushed or hurried, Linzi suggested ideas and offered great advice about things we had not even thought of! Linzi took so much stress away from us when things started to become a little overwhelming and the endless lists got longer and longer! They were quickly and efficiently managed and monitored meaning we could relax and start to enjoy the process. Linzi came into her own on the day when she even had an app controlling the weather clouds! She skilfully and personably managed our guests, looked after us, managed our suppliers and even fed the cats ! Nothing was left to chance but flowed beautifully. We were totally relaxed knowing everything was under control, and if it were not linzi would sort it! If you want a stress-free experience from a lady that knows her area of business and is lovely with it …look no further for your wedding planner. Thank you Linzi our day was just perfect x.” Sally and Angie – June 2023
