Throughout my career, I've gained experience in a variety of roles, including administrator, secretary, and personal assistant across different industries. I’ve also worked extensively with primary school children, supporting them in state schools and nurseries as a teaching assistant, nursery worker, special needs support, and learning mentor. These roles helped me develop strong organizational and creative skills, which are highly transferable to wedding planning.
As I sought a career change, I realized that my background in coordinating, supporting, and managing logistics could seamlessly translate into the world of weddings. The experience of planning my own wedding sparked a passion for the industry, and I knew I had found my true calling as a wedding planner and stylist.

I am a certified wedding planner with specialised qualifications in wedding planning, styling, and business management. I completed my training with the highly respected Wedding Academy, where I take pride in having earned my professional certifications.
Friends and family and fellow wedding suppliers I have worked with describe me as caring, honest and thoughtful, a good communicator, and good at bringing everyone together to work as a team, they say I have a good eye for details, organised, calm and professional. Helpful with a calm demeanour and passionate about what I do. I believe these are important qualities to have in your wedding planner.
I have collaborated with other wedding planners on their weddings, assisting with styling the wedding ceremony and reception areas, and assisting guests with questions and their needs on the big day to name but a few tasks. Check out their testimonials here in my website.
