The Best Wedding And Event Planners in Barlborough, Derbyshire, United Kingdom (2025)

It has been a pleasure dealing with Lou throughout. We were blown away with our decorated venue, it really was amazing 😍 Cannot thank Lou and her team enough, would highly recommend x

Lou is amazing! She is decorating our wedding in 2 weeks 😍 wow wow cannot wait to see what she does, her showroom is sensational 💖 Thank you x

We got married on Friday and used bluehorse shoes and hired chair covers and bows and the room looked amazing and so pleased with the service we was given would recommend to anyone

I cant thank Ellie enough for her help with decorating the venue for our wedding. It was like a dream come true when I saw the room all dressed up. An absolutely stunning flower arch (which Ellie personalised to match the colour theme) spectacular centre pieces (again personalised to colour theme) and stylish table plan and name cards, all made the room look like a fairytale. Ellie was a dream to make arrangements with, communication was prompt and reliable. Couldn't be more happier with the service we received and we were delighted with the outcome. Ellie, you come highly recommended in our eyes and we can't thank you enough. Stef and Joe Xx

Ellie and the team completed our venue and made it look stunning! We had some last minute bad weather but they were on hand straight away to advise and help. Ellie was a massive help in deciding on decor in the run up to the wedding and nothing was too much trouble. I kept changing and dithering and she was incredibly patient!! She has great taste and an eye for detail. The range of accessories and decor us huge and really great quality. Would definitely recommend for your special day!

Ellie at everything covered dressed our entire wedding and I can not express how incredible everything was, from the details in the ceremony to the finishing touches for our gift table. Ellie created exactly what we had imagined the rooms would look like, she was so professional and efficient throughout the whole process and made it so enjoyable to plan with her. We 100% recommend everything covered! Thankyou so much Ellie for everything.

I honestly cannot express how highly I recommend everything covered! Originally booked for a wedding in 2020 which was cancelled due to covid, after another attempted and failed wedding, we finally got there! (Third time lucky!) So much changed in this time, the venue (twice), the decor, the items I hired (even to the point that the day before the wedding we were messaging about what decor we could add!) and honestly Ellie went above and beyond to make everything perfect for us! She even added extra covers on the day as the venue misunderstood the table plan and therefore we ended up with more chairs than expected! The covers, hoods, the most beautiful starlight curtain and she even added a beautiful ‘happily ever after’ sign which just added to the ambience! Thank you so much, I can’t have been an easy customer but nothing felt too much of an ask and she was so helpful and understanding! Thank you!

If you're wondering "do I really need a wedding planner?" the answer is no - you don't need just a wedding planner, YOU NEED JESS! The easiest ever 5 stars. Jess was phenomenal - you will not find a safer pair of hands for the biggest day of your life! BEFORE WEDDING DAY We thought we could do it all but we were so SO wrong. 16mths before our big day we realised that wedding planning is someone's profession for a REASON & opted to find an 'on the day' planner since most of our vendors were already booked. My biggest regret is not getting Jess on board from the outset! We spoke with a number of wedding planners & at the end of back-to-back initial meetings, we didn't even need to discuss who the best fit was - it was obviously Jess. Jess was, of course, kind & congratulatory & immediately easy to get on with, but she was also focused & able to demonstrate her ability to deliver our dream day from the very first moments of meeting her. We knew that she would have everything in hand! Jess was our go to whenever we had a wobble or a question or needed to soundboard something. Nothing was too much & she always responded quickly & with results! She put us at ease every step of the way. The thing with wedding planning is that you don't know what you don't know, & that is where Jess is essential. She won't just people please - she'll give you honest advice/opinions to ensure your day runs smoothly & in line with your vision, & she will quickly identify any issues or gaps & will have solutions before you can even ask! ON THE DAY Knowing Jess was going to be there put us at ease in the lead up. On the day we both said that booking Jess was the best decision we made on MULTIPLE occasions! Nothing was an issue, she had everything under control, & had solutions to any issues without us even knowing there'd been an issue. There was literally not one thing we had to worry about on the day. Ultimately, Jess was both a friendly face on the day putting us at ease & also the most proficient organiser I've ever seen. She took command, made sure everything/everyone was where they needed to be, & did so in the kindest & most professional way without so much as breaking a sweat. She makes EVERYTHING look effortless! By the end of the day, we were devastated that she was leaving after having delivered our dream wedding day which, due to her sheer effort & skill, far exceeded our expectations & frankly blew us out the water. TIPS 1 - Don't book any old wedding planner, BOOK JESS! And do it sooner than later - don't be me, you can't do it all! 2 - If you're having a multi-day wedding, particularly with a pre-party, book Jess! We didn't & when it came to bite me in the backside she was there at the drop of a hat & sorted EVERYTHING out. Massive regret not just booking her from the outset! 3 - Communicate! Jess is incredible but she's not a mind reader, & she got to know us so well so that she could deliver the exact right aesthetic & atmosphere on the day. 4 - Trust Jess implicitly. There is a reason this is her profession. She delivers flawless weddings week in, week out. If you hand over the reins, you will NOT be disappointed! OVERALL Jess is one of the most organised people you will ever meet & you'll rarely have a question that she hasn't already thought of & answered - she goes above & beyond! She is also so incredibly kind & we like to think over the past couple of years has become a real friend, something we are so grateful for. Our day was flawless & it was entirely down to Jess. Booking Jessica Sharpe Weddings was one of our best decisions & if you are lucky enough to book her I know it will be yours too! TO JESS There are no words to actually express our gratitude. You are truly the best in the business & delivered a day that we will never ever forget & we know it would not have been possible without you. You have gone from strength to strength since Jan 2022 when we booked & it has been incredible to see & to be part of. We will be cheerleading you on as your business continues to thrive! All our love, Mr & Mrs Wilson xxx

Jess and her team were amazing, they were friendly and so, so organised. Jess helped make the lead-up to our wedding run seamlessly, which meant we didn’t have all the stress of sorting everything out. As she is a wedding expert, she gave us great tips and advice about how best to set out our day, we wouldn’t have had a clue otherwise! On the day of our wedding, everything ran to time and went perfectly and she was a very calming presence for my husband when he was getting a bit stressed out. It was like a professional production and we could just relax and enjoy ourselves - we even forgot they were there sometimes! We would highly recommended hiring Jess to coordinate your wedding, it’s a no brainer really, you can have an amazing well-put together wedding and no stress!

Our daughter got married in June 2024 and we were very fortunate to have been recommended Jess by Kate from our marquee company (Special Event Tipis and Marquees). We had got quite far along the DIY planning route when I realised as MOB that I wanted to be able to enjoy the wedding day and the build up to it without being overwhelmed with everything. My husband was quite sceptical at first about why we needed a coordinator as we had everything booked. This was mainly because he hadn't quite grasped what was involved, but after meeting Jess he was onboard 110% and he, like the rest of us, thinks she is fantastic and money well spent. We engaged Jess for her 'on the day management' but this is truly much, much more than just 'on the day' management and is an absolute MUST if you are having a marquee wedding. She is an experienced professional who has a very calm approach to everything. She stepped in 6 weeks before the wedding and from then on we knew we were in safe hands. She gave us much needed advice on a whole host of things and made everything run smoothly. She expertly coordinated with all our suppliers - of which there were many and all of whom were brilliant! She and her team (hello & thank you to the other Jesses) came the day before the wedding and set up the marquee. We went along to give a hand, but she had everything covered. She even had a kettle & made us all a cuppa! They came to the church rehearsal and then went back to the marquee to continue with the set up which enabled me able to spend time with my daughter and our family and friends, stress free, the night before the wedding, which is something which I would not have been able to do without her being onboard. Unfortunately, the weather on the day wasn't great . After glorious sunshine the day before, in true Lake District style, it rained on the day. We were so confident and comfortable with Jess's advice that we trusted her to her to make the last minute decision if the drinks reception would be inside or outside. She, together with Fran from Holker Hall, managed this beautifully and our guests have said that they were quite pleased it rained as it enabled them to have a look around the beautiful Holker Hall. Jess and her team were very professional and at the same time warm and friendly and it genuinely comes across how much they love their work. We had the most fantastic & fun wedding party and all our guests have said that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. I do believe we had the dream team of suppliers. Thank you so much Jess, it wouldn't have happened without you.

As a very indecisive and unorganised couple, we needed help so put our trust in Jess. Choosing Jess as our wedding planner was the best decision we ever made and enabled us to have the wedding of our dreams! Jess is so professional, organised and knowledgeable in every single department and we are so glad we hired Jess so early on in the planning. Jess has a wealth of amazing contacts and was always available to support us through the process. She is extremely hands on and provided a service that was worth every penny. Her and her team were phenomenal on the day and made sure everything went perfectly - she is also just a lovely person to spend time with whilst organising our big day! If you’re reading this deciding whether to enquire, absolutely do it! x

Thank you both so much for making our venue look amazing! Everything was perfect and even better than we had imagined, we had some lovely comments from our guests on how nice everything looked! will definitely be recommending you, thank you so much! ♥️

Carolina has been a pleasure to work with. We always knew we wanted to get married in Italy but I didn’t know where to start. We interviewed a few different wedding planners, Carolina stood out for her honesty and her style in weddings. She instantly understood the brief and found us the most amazing venues, which were hard to pick from. We had the most beautiful wedding and all our friends and family said it was the best they had been too. Everything we wanted was organised and all the stress was taken away from us on the weekend. I would highly recommend her.

I would highly recommend Carolina to anyone planning a wedding in Italy. We saved so many hours of research because of her knowledge and experience. She was able to recommend some amazing suppliers that ticked all boxes. Our wedding day felt so relaxed because of her being there and everything was just perfect on the day.

Carolina and her team planned and coordinated a wedding in Tuscany where we were shooting. Their service to not only the couple but us vendors was top notch, their communication throughout the day and ahead of each formality was amazing, prioritising everybody knew what was happening. No moment was left unattended. As a wedding vendor, I would highly recommend Carolina and her team for your wedding, especially if you’re planning a destination one and need a local’s expertise. Thank you Carolina, can’t wait for the next time we have the pleasure of working together!

Carolina arranged our wedding in Sicily in April 24. We aren't great planners (hence enlisting her help) and with very little guidance she quickly understood us as a couple and managed to source THE most beautiful venue that was absolutely suited to what we wanted, all within our budget. She was helpful, available when we needed her, and empathetic. She and her team conjured the most wonderful, memorable three days, and we are forever grateful to them all. Recommended! X

Myself and my partner won on a bespoke wedding competition last month. Now we are all booked in to the beautiful haycock manor in Peterborough for our wedding next year! The discount and saving we have received on our big day through bespoke weddings competition has made it possible for us to have our big day the way we always wanted to without the massive bill. I also would highly recommend Maria Napper one wedding coordinator from bespoke wedding as she is so lovely, friendly and already has helped me so much and really listened to what I want but with the budget I have and she’s made it all possible couldn’t thank her enough. Looking forward to our big day and recommend entering the competition you never know your luck 🍀

Review From the moment we got the call to say we had won round one of the wedding competition to the moment we woke up as husband and wife, Maria and Bespoke have been incredible. There is so much press on how stressful planning a wedding is but for us it has been the opposite, in fact it was rather a magical experience and we only had just over 4 months to get it all done! Maria was there on the day and made sure we had everything we needed and throughout the day she made sure we were happy, she was amazing and it was a blessing to have her as part of our day. Thank you to Bespoke for everything they do for couples getting married, your company is outstanding. The biggest thank you goes to Maria for her professional and passionate approach to planning our big day. She started as our planner but now she’s more like family.

We are thrilled with the outstanding service provided by Gail as our Bespoke Wedding planner! From the very beginning, she has been incredibly helpful, showing us three different venue options. Gail is professional, friendly, and always approachable, making the entire planning process feel stress-free and enjoyable. Her advice has been invaluable, and it’s clear she truly cares about helping us to create a special day. We’re so happy with everything so far and are excited to continue working with her as we plan our dream wedding day. Highly recommend!

We beyond grateful for Bespoke Weddings. I couldn't believe it when I received the phone call to let us know that we had won their competition of free wedding venue. Without them our wedding would not be happening so soon and we can't wait. Our Bespoke Wedding Planner Jade has been simply amazing! She is always at the end of the phone if we have any questions and is being very supportive. I would highly recommend Bespoke Weddings.

Anthony and I had our wedding here in December and absolutely loved the venue. It was the second venue we looked at and just knew at the time that we wanted to get married here. Lynne and the team were amazing - couldn’t help us enough and the communication was great. We had so many compliments about the venue and the food. Cannot recommend this venue enough. Thank you so much for making our day special!

Attended a wedding/handfasting and reception, staff went out of their way to make my "daughters" wedding go smoothly. The comestibles were excellent

We had our wedding at Pudding Pie Hill on Friday 12th July, and everything was absolutely magical from start to finish. We chose Pudding Pie Hill because we got such a lovely and personal vibe from Craig and Lynne when we came for a viewing, and they did not disappoint. Throughout all the planning, the service we received from Lynne was amazing. She continuously went above and beyond to help us design and bring to life our dream day. We were fortunate to have an outdoor ceremony, with a tipi reception. Lynne and the team worked tirelessly in the run up and on the day to ensure everything ran to perfection, and we didn't have to think about a thing! We received so many wonderful compliments on the venue, the food and the service from all our friends and family.

We were lucky enough to photograph two weddings at the lovely Pudding Pie Hill last year and both were such lovely experiences. The staff were friendly and helpful, the location was beautiful (lovely views!) and both couples seemed to have a fantastic day. What more could you need?
