Meet the Planner

Hello, I'm Hannah

I am a Yorkshire based wedding planner who has dedicated the last 10 years to learning everything I possibly can about the wedding and event industry. During this time I’ve worked in a variety of specialities to build my understanding of this wonderful industry, so I can provide you with the knowledge you need to plan a wedding full of personality and exquisite details. Planning a wedding is an extremely personal process, one which takes time and consideration and at points can become quite overwhelming. This is why I work closely with each of my couples, spending the time to understand the unique intricacies of their days so I can support them throughout the many elements of their planning process.

My purpose in life is to help my wonderful couples create unique, exquisitely planned weddings which are full of beautiful personal details.

There is something incredibly special about being asked to be a part of someone’s wedding day. Most people consider their wedding day to be one of the most significant and special days of their lives, so to play a role in such an important moment is a tremendous privilege to me. I take a great deal of pride in my role as a wedding planner and on the day coordinator which is why my approach is extremely detail orientated. I don’t like to leave anything to chance and that is why I dedicate a lot of time to each of my couples. I only take on a limited number of weddings each year, so I can give my all to each of them.

I can’t praise Hannah enough for the work she put in to helping create our magical wedding weekend. We had secured our venue and most of our suppliers before we decided that actually having a wedding planner would be a good idea and I am so glad that we found Hannah.
She is highly organised, very professional and very dedicated. She worked tirelessly over the 2 days of our wedding and had everything covered so that we could relax and enjoy the experience. She is incredibly details orientated and this attention to detail really paid off as the wedding went so smoothly and our guests loved it. Hannah thought of things that we never would have done. Her communication was brilliant , keeping us informed of everything along the way. She was very responsive and coped admirably when I found things a bit overwhelming! It was clear that it really mattered to Hannah that we had the wedding we dreamed of and that our guests had a brilliant time too. She liaised well with all our suppliers and we had loads of them !! She coped with late changes and additions without batting an eyelid. I would highly recommend her and am so grateful that we worked with her. She is amazing.

Jane & Paul

There really are no words to explain just how amazing Hannah was in planning our wedding day! We had our wedding in the Cotswolds (July 2022) and Hannah was our rock throughout the whole process. There were site visits, endless amounts of valuable advice (and support!) and her famous function sheets. I truly felt like the only Bride in the world. Steve and I simply could not have had our most perfect day without her.
Hannah is the most organised, calm and loveliest person you could ever hire to help with you wedding – I have been and will forever be recommending her services!

Lydia & Steve

We hired Hannah to help us with venue styling for our wedding day. Out of everything we chose for our day, she was the best investment we made by far! The whole thing so much less stressful because of her and she has amazing taste. She was enthusiastic, excited, patient and understanding at all times. She anticipated our needs and sorted things before we even knew what we needed. All of our guests loved the styling and so did we. If you want wedding styling or planning, suppliers don’t get better or kinder than Hannah. Maybe we can convince her to style a vow renewal in 20 years!

Kat & Kyle

The BEST and most IMPORTANT decision my husband and I made when we were starting to plan our wedding was hiring Hannah. I am convinced she could pull off the perfect version of anyone’s dream wedding. Her talents are completely unlimited — she can do anything and everything from a marquee wedding in the countryside to a castle outside of London; from one day weddings to five day weddings; from minimalism to maximalism — she can do anything flawlessly. Hannah is positive, nonjudgmental, the hardest worker I know, and wickedly intelligent. She remembered details from comments my husband and I made and executed those ideas into an even better reality like it was no big deal. Vendors clearly love working with her because she is detailed, fair, helpful, and communicative. Our family and guests mention her by name when they talk about how much they loved our wedding day. She’s THAT kind of planner. She gracefully erases stress from everyone else on your wedding day. Her team embodies the same fabulous qualities — ex: Diannah literally sewing my Mom’s broken dress before pictures. Hannah will be gloriously famous one day, and it is imperative you hire her before she only does royals and celebrities. My husband and I were warned our wedding day would fly by and it would be difficult to be present with everyone. Instead, we felt completely stress free and totally present throughout the whole day. We look back and quite literally would not change a single thing. That was ALL due to Hannah — she is the best of the best!!

Libby & Sean

Hannah is worth her weight in gold! From the moment we enquired with her we knew she was the right fit to help plan our day. From start to finish Hannah works tirelessly to help create and execute your wedding vision, from liaising with suppliers, sourcing decor and bringing everything to life on the day she really did create the wedding of our dreams and it wouldn’t have being the same without her. All our guests commented on how amazing you were and that you never stopped! Thank you for everything Hannah

Mel & Adam

We cannot recommend Hannah and her services enough! We got married at home on our farm and she made the entire process a million times easier for us. She worked tirelessly from the moment we booked her until late into the night of our wedding day, doing whatever needed doing to make our day run perfectly. All of our suppliers commented on how great she was to work with and she completely shielded us from any of the organisational issues we didn’t need to know about on the day! Thank you Hannah, you were amazing!

Lucy & Sam

I cannot recommend Hannah highly enough. She is the reason why Tessa & my wedding was a complete success. Over the last 12 months, I have come to trust her judgment (vendors, logistics, organization etc) and consider her a true friend.

Examples of what you can expect if you partner with Hannah:

– After we choose a new ceremony location 48 hours before the wedding (in a remote field), Hannah coordinated the drop off of chairs and personally set up (and tested, as it wasn’t perfectly flat) each one

– Hannah personally checked each seating arrangement was up to her standings before guests entered the tent

– I saw Hannah refilling guests wine glasses throughout the evening – another example of her going above and beyond even our expectations

Galen & Tessa

Where to begin! Freddie and I will be forever so grateful to Hannah for ensuring we had the best weekend of our lives. Hannah went above and beyond. Her attention to detail, relationship with suppliers and work ethic is second to none. This, combined with her beautiful and calming personality made her a total dream to work with. From the very beginning it was obvious we were in very safe hands. After our experience, if there is one thing you need for your wedding day, my first recommendation would always be Hannah.

Holly & Freddie

Hannah is simply extraordinary.

We worked with her for over a year to plan our marquee wedding in Lincolnshire, and from start to finish she was nothing short of exceptional.

She thought of absolutely everything – from coordinating dozens of suppliers to managing complex site logistics – and did it all with calm professionalism, endless energy, and genuine warmth. In the lead-up to the wedding, she was a constant source of reassurance and support. No request was ever too much, and she was always available, always on it, and always one step ahead.

Hannah was also a complete hero on the ground. She spent two full days on-site ahead of the wedding, ensuring every detail was in place. On the day itself, she was there from sunrise to 4am, and didn’t leave until the marquee was spotless. Her dedication and work ethic are unmatched.

Her legendary function sheet ran to over 50 pages and covered every single detail – it became our wedding bible. Thanks to Hannah, the entire experience felt smooth, calm and completely stress-free. We genuinely don’t know how we would have done it without her.

We cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re planning a wedding – especially a marquee or outdoor celebration – you need Hannah in your corner.

Katie & Oli

If you are planning a wedding, Hannah is an absolute must to make the process and the wedding day itself run smoothly!

Hannah was absolutely brilliant – her attention to every little detail made the build up to our wedding so calm and made the day itself run so perfectly. Hannah went above and beyond with everything to make our special day so incredible and it wouldn’t have been the same without her – so thank you so, so much Hannah!

Heather & Josh

Where do I start? Hannah is the most incredible wedding planner, coordinator and visionary! A modern day Mary Poppins in wedding form…. We had the most incredible marquee wedding at Newburgh priory with the ceremony outside, it quickly became apparent that we were completely out of our depth.
We had secured all of our suppliers but hadn’t considered wet weather planning, back up plans, general logistics, supplier insurance info and the list goes on. Hannah took control and created the most magical experience from start to finish, ensuring every detail was covered so our guests and ourselves could just enjoy the day. With all weddings, we had a couple of hiccups and Hannah sorted them with ease including a new bar supplier (vintage events who were incredible). On the day, Hannah was on hand to help suppliers, family and friends.. SO many people commented on her talent and friendly nature (even managing to secure an antihistamine for my uncle!). I didn’t realise how much we needed Hannah until we had a conversation and she was on the team, the best decision/investment we made. Newburgh Priory were also super impressed, I think they prefer guests to use Hannah where possible! Thank you so much Hannah, 1 year on and we’re still grateful for all your hard work – It wouldn’t have been the same without your expertise. Love, Shannon & Tim xx

Shannon & Tim

It is impossible to write a sufficiently glowing review for Hannah! We booked her to help with on the day coordination but she was SO much more than that. She worked with us from the moment we booked her (months out) ensuring we had every last detail covered, and her insanely detailed function sheets are just incredible. She took so much time to understand exactly what we envisaged for our day, and what was important to us, and was there to make sure our suppliers delivered on that, both in the lead up to the wedding and on the day. Hannah’s attention to detail setting up our tables was second to none – I had a very clear (slightly pedantic) vision of what I wanted and she delivered on that perfectly – she is a perfectionist! She went above and beyond on the day going well beyond her agreed scope of work, even organising our reception brass band to play our walk-in song as a last minute surprise (a total highlight for us). Thanks so much Hannah – we wish we could do it all again!!

Sarah & George

If you’re thinking about booking a wedding planner/co-ordinator, you must book Hannah! – Where do we even begin… From the moment we met her, we knew we were in the best hands. She was, without a doubt, the best supplier we had and truly worth every single penny. Hannah listened so carefully to everything we wanted and took note of every little detail, no matter how big or small. Her organisation, professionalism, and calm presence made the entire planning process feel smooth and stress-free, and all our other supplies commented on how lovely she was. But what really sets Hannah apart is her heart, she is so kind, caring, and genuinely invested in making your day as perfect as possible. By the time the big day arrived, Hannah wasn’t just our coordinator, she was a friend. She went above and beyond at every stage, and we honestly couldn’t have done it without her. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your wedding like it’s their own, look no further. Hannah is an absolute gem, and we’ll be forever grateful for everything she did for us.
