Liz & Rich - Hodsock Priory







Sunday 28 August was the wedding of Liz and Rich at Hodsock Priory a magnificent venue for a wedding.


Rich proposed to Liz in New York, so it was inevitable that this would be the theme including Tiffany blue invites, table names, and hand made favours with the New York landscape on the labels all designed by Rich.


We have been working with Liz and Rich since January when they won our competition in White Weddings magazine, this included full planning and on the day co-ordination as well as:



  • On the day treatments and bridal make up - Carly @ the Therapy Lounge

  • Cake by Sharon's Cakes

  • Flowers - Tineke Floral Designs


  • Pre shoot wedding photographs - Simon Revill Photography


  • Life coaching sessions - D. Yates

This couple have been an absoloute pleasure to work with and they have both been very hands on throughout the whole planning and lead up to the big day.

What's New..........












A week ago we were looking forward to the wedding of Gemma and Tom who had a fantastic day which started in the small church of St Marys next to the Sutton Scarsdale Hall, then onto the Fox & Goose at Old Brampton for their reception. But especially their photos out in the Peak District where Gemma changed from Jimmy Choos to walking boots. This was a really enjoyable part of their wedding just quiet time Gemma, Tom, Ross the photographer and me holding the reflector to get the photos just right.


It was nice to work alongside suppliers some who attend our Supplier Meetings

Bridal Workshop





On Sunday morning at Grassmoor Golf Centre in their Hardwick Suite, some of our summer brides, their mothers and bridesmaids attended our workshop to go through:


  • One month to go tips


  • One week to go tips


  • Mood board design

This was a particularly enjoyable morning especially as all brides came with their own items as well to add to their mood boards.


Some of the comments from the group were:


'I am glad to do a mood board at this stage as what I wanted at the beginning changed along the way and some things are totally different, so the mood board reflects the finished results'


'Great really enjoyed it and the goody bag'


'Liked the fact that you have a piece of artwork to take home at the end of the day'


'Nice bonding experience, well prepared and lots of tips and resources'


'A great day really enjoyed it and it brought out everyone's creative side'


'This was especially helpful in a nice venue'


Derbyshire Event & Wedding Planners felt this was a really effective and helpful workshop in a relaxing environment, assisting the Brides in the final lead up to their wedding.
