WEDDING
PLANNING
|
The Event Planners |
|
Husband and
wife team John and Frances are friendly and
helpful nothing is too much bother, being a
couple there is always someone for the heavy
work and someone for the fine detail,
although they don’t specify which is which.
They work well together and with other
vendors, can mingle unobtrusively getting
the job done without fuss or mess, and last
but not least are trained florists able to
decorate even the dingiest corner with a
surprising bit of Scottish themed
decoration. |

What are you
looking for in a wedding planner? |
|
Most people
want one or two things, to save money and
to ease pressure. We can do both.
Whether you
live abroad and your whole Scottish Wedding
arrives in a box with easily readable
instructions or within distance of us being
with you on your day, we are happy to
include relevant Scottish traditions and
trinkets at no extra charge.
We guarantee
to save you money on at least some of the
things you require with some freebies along
the way. A good mum will make sure her
daughters day runs smoothly, but why should
she do all the donkey work, like taxi-ing
relatives, fixing the broken cake adding or
removing guests as they decline/accept at
the last minute leaving you with a table in
the centre of the room stuffed to
overflowing or virtually empty, we take the
place of at least two good mothers, and take
on all aspects of the day including the lead
up to the day so it runs smoothly for the
bride and groom and all fixable traumas are
fixed with no fuss, the bride only finding
out AFTER the day.
We make sure
you are free and able to stick to a
timescale on the day that fits in with what
you want to be doing, because there are two
of us we literally can be at two places at
once for you, yet you only pay one planning
service charge. |
|
One day package: Suitable for Central
Scotland brides.
Cost £250 |
|
If you require
our assistance in the smooth running of your
day only, to do the taxi-ing of relatives,
ensuring florists, cake maker, venue
decorator etc are all doing their job at the
proper time and helping you to stick to your
own timeline, then this one day service is
for you.
We meet
perhaps once or twice before the day to iron
out what is important to you that really
must go right, then we start early on your
wedding day overseeing your well laid plans,
leaving your mum free to enjoy the big day
too.
We are one of
the few companies who are there to help the
groom too, we can even hand deliver his
gift/poem to his bride at the precise time
and place he chooses. |

We visit
church/minister/venue, lots of
professionals, make and take their phone
calls, help choose and make favours, table
centres, cake, hen/stag night arrangements,
sort out large and small problems on the
day, like taxis for stranded guests that do
not know there way, fully decorate the
venue, oversee caterers, help you stick to a
budget and timeline even save you money as
we get a discount often for using the same
professionals that have been used happily
before.
We can liaise
with guests who may have
travelling/accommodation problems, often
sorting them without the bride even being
aware there was a problem, double check
gifts to and from the bride and groom often
hand delivering them at the exact time
specified, can help with your table plan,
place cards and table decorations, ensure
you see any gifts that are brought to the
reception, so as you can say a proper thank
you.
All of this

you authorise us to pay for something in
your absence we would need re- paid after
receiving a receipt of course, short journey
fuel costs, parking fees etc will not be
charged only larger costs agreed with you
beforehand. |
