My fairy godmother brings peace of mind

One thing I’ve learned from the past few months is that planning a wedding can be more than a little stressful. Once upon a time I would have laughed at the notion of employing a wedding planner after all, how difficult could it be?

Several mini-breakdowns later, there nothing more I would love right now than having a fairy godmother wave her magic want and offer to organise everything for me.
Unfortunately, I can’t justify the cost of employing my own wedding guru. However, I have discovered the next best thing- Clare, of Clare’s Bespoke Wedding Services. She may not be a wedding planner but she’s not far from it.

Originally I planned to use Clare’s business for the flowers for our big day. But then I discovered that she offers more than just bouquets- you name it, Clare can sort it.

Now she’s providing a whole host of things for when we tie the knot, including a beautician and hairdresser to ensure I, the bridesmaids and my Mum look our best.
She’s also providing beautiful linen covers for the hotel’s chairs, which will be tied with red sash and should look stunning, helping to bring together the red and ivory colour scheme we’ve chosen.

Since discovering Clare, I’ve felt a definite sense of relief. It’s great that I don’t have to dredge through the Yellow Pages to find lots of different companies to cater for our various needs.

To have found someone that has so far offered a service with an unwavering smile- despite my barrage of silly questions- is a Godsend, one that I’m sure I will be thanking my lucky stars for a while to come.

And my fiancé Pete is pleased too- it means there’s fewer things I’ll be nagging him to help me with!
