FULL WEDDING PLANNING & CO-ORDINATION

"Chrissie was absolutely worth every penny, and more. Anything we could have dreamed of, Chrissie had a solution for, and it always cost less than we could have arranged it for ourselves. We can honestly say we didn’t have to 'settle' for anything; all the small details were considered and delivered with typically Chrissie panache, with really detailed consideration of our overall style of wedding. It was an absolute pleasure to have Chrissie organising things, both in the run up to the day and on the day. Everything was spot on and she really had her finger on the pulse all day, whilst putting us at our ease and enabling us to really enjoy the day without worry. Everyone commented on her professionalism and how wonderful the day was as a result! We'd not only wholeheartedly recommend Chrissie, but would suggest she's an absolute necessity if you really want to relax and enjoy the preparation and, more importantly, your big day!"

PART WEDDING PLANNING & CO-ORDINATION

"It was important to us for our wedding to have the WOW factor. We had some fantastic ideas for our day, but were unsure how to implement them successfully. This is where Chrissie came in. We arranged a meeting and found her very professional, straight forward and approachable – exactly what we were looking for. We opted for a part planning service to take away the stress during the latter part of the wedding planning and on the day itself. Chrissie was super – she definitely went the ‘extra mile’ in providing an excellent service by meeting with us regularly, contributing to our wedding ideas, liaising with the hotel and other suppliers on our behalf, helping us decide the location for our photos, setting up our reception room exactly how we wanted it, ensuring relatives knew where they should be and most importantly - ensuring our day ran smoothly. Without Chrissie our day would have been a lot more stressful. We would thoroughly recommend her services."

ON THE DAY WEDDING CO-ORDINATION

“By the time it was almost our wedding, it felt like we were losing control of the finer details and I was worried that we’d never be able to make the day perfect and enjoy it at the same time. We’d managed to book everything we wanted, but we looked into hiring a wedding planner about a month before the wedding, to help us pull everything together and keep the day on track. Chrissie immediately put us at ease. She got up to speed within a few days and became a point of contact for our suppliers, made all the final checks, helped to set up the venues to an exacting plan and was there throughout the day to manage the timings of everything and ensure everything ran smoothly. Nothing was too much trouble - Chrissie totally understood the vision we had and had the same (if not finer!) attention to detail that meant we could totally relax and have the day or our lives. Highly recommended.”

FULL WEDDING PLANNING & CO-ORDINATION

“I am so grateful we found Chrissie to help us with our wedding. She made the process totally enjoyable and we felt like our involvement in the planning was at the right level to give us the enjoyment and excitement, but none of the hard work or headaches. Chrissie is really personable and fun to work with, she took the time to get to know us as a couple and came up with ideas that were totally ‘us’. On the day itself, she really came into her own. Everything was perfect. She worked to a pre-agreed timing plan and made sure everyone was where they were supposed to be at the right time. Our guestlist was quite extensive and I worried it would be a bit like herding cats, but Chrissie managed to discreetly and efficiently usher everyone along and keep us on schedule. If you’re in two minds about hiring a wedding planner, I say do it - the hassle it will save you is so worth it! And you can actually enjoy your wedding.”

“We hired Chrissie as our wedding planner and to this day, we’re still so grateful for everything she did. From our very first meeting, she was professional, organised, and genuinely excited about helping us make our wedding perfect. She handled every detail—big and small—with such precision, it made the entire planning process much less stressful. She has such flair for ideas, from table settings and wedding favours to the design of our invitations and order of service. On the day of the wedding, everything ran so smoothly thanks to her coordination and planning. We didn’t have to worry about a thing and could just enjoy the moment with our friends and family. If you’re looking for someone who’s creative, organised, calm under pressure, and truly passionate about making your wedding unforgettable, I can’t recommend Chrissie enough!”

BLACK TIE FUNDRAISER, PLANNING & CO-ORDINATION

“Chrissie conceived, planned, marketed and delivered Headway Derby’s first black tie fundraising event to great success. This was a concept we were totally unfamiliar with, but she made it such a successful event that it has continued to be an annual major fundraising event for the organisation. She sourced our venue and suppliers, managed the budget carefully, created table plans and helped to co-ordinate an auction. The event created not only an additional source of revenue for Headway Derby, but much needed PR and awareness for the struggles of those living with the effects of brain injury. In addition to this, Chrissie also helped develop a long term publicity strategy and some very effective promotional materials to raise awareness for the charity at an incredibly vital time. Chrissie’s involvement with the charity made a huge difference to Headway.”
