I met Vanessa a few years ago at a wedding. I noticed how lovely and smooth the day went so decided to follow her business page on Instagram Years later I got engaged and I knew immediately I wanted to use Harness & Co to help me plan our dream day. From our first meeting with Vanessa I knew we'd be in good hands. She has unbelievable knowledge of the Wedding industry and knows all the best suppliers. She teamed us up with people she just knew we would love and would work well within our theme. Vanessa was always there with me every step of the way. We asked her to plan our day and also manage the actual wedding day. Her planning is so precise and incredible. She works so hard to make sure her couples have the best most stress free day. Our wedding took around 9 months to plan and I don't think I could of done it with her. She was my planner but is also now a friend. We had such a laugh, she helped chill me out, made amazing suggestions within our theme and also made sure absolutely everything was perfect All our guests said that they have never been to such a we'll planned and seamless wedding. She took care of everything. Dom, Vanessa's husband also helped on our day with all the logistics and we love him too! If you are thinking of hiring a Wedding planner then please let it be Harness and Co. They will ensure you have the day of your dreams with minimum stress or worry.

Working with Vanessa is a JOY. The first time we worked together a few years back was a revelation, what Vanessa doesn't know about planning, especially for an outdoor wedding, isn't worth knowing. If you are having an at home or outdoor wedding, you NEED her. Having photographed weddings for over ten years now, we always see the utmost professionalism and levels of skill that they have, and always go above and beyond for their clients. From a supplier point of view, Vanessa's planning documents are actually sexy they are so on point, so working alongside them is a breeze. Our work together has been from countryside tipis to Aynhoe Park and so many venues in between, and hopefully here's to many more. Just get them booked in now!

Vanessa is excellent at wedding planning as well as being a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend her without hesitation. Having Vanessa as our planner meant that we were able plan our wedding in less than seven months and I can honestly say that I enjoyed it all. The whole thing, from choosing a venue to designing a menu, to table plans, the band, the cake, and the day itself. I’m only sorry it’s all over. I can safely say it would have been a very different experience without Vanessa. She dealt with the unexpected effortlessly and allowed my husband and me to relax and take it all in. Thank you Vanessa x

It has been nothing but AMAZING to work with Vanessa and Dom! From the very beginning it became clear that they were not only doing this because it’s their job but because they genuinely cared about me and Emily (my wife). We didn’t have to worry about one thing, through the whole process we were able to just enjoy our time being engaged as Vanessa took every task into her own hands allowing us to truly cherish our moment in ease knowing, that everything that we wanted was being manifested. There is NOTHING like being worry free when planning a wedding! Both as professionals and as humans it doesn’t get any better than Harness & Co. We consider ourselves honoured to have been able to work with them in any way! Our wedding was a dream come true and the memories that they helped us create will remain in our hearts forever.

I had the pleasure of working with Roberta for a very special wedding. Roberta is excellent with great attention to detail, great communication and fast replies. She was running the wedding and she exceeded the expectations, making sure everyone was well looked after and that the wedding went according to plan. I highly recommend Roberta and I look forward to working with her again with more events in our venue. Thank you for your outstanding work.

Roberta is a true professional, diligent and detailed. She made our entire wedding experience much smoother and took away a lot of the stress in the build up to the day. On the day, Roberta was fantastic. The day was totally seamless, as the groom it felt like we had the best luck in the world, but in reality that was in large part due to Roberta's diligent work in the background throughout the day. Thank you Roberta!

My wife and I hired Roberta to plan our elaborate, destination Indian wedding in Lake Como, Italy. From start to finish, Roberta was hyper-communicative, friendly, and engaging. She dealt with both our requests and our demands with ease and delivered a beautiful, elegant, highly bespoke big budget wedding for us. One of the areas of focus for us was our guest experience and she made sure no page went unturned for our guests. From hand painted macarons, Mercedes Benz shuttles, and classic wooden boats - she delivered one hell of a wedding!

Roberta is a fantastic professional. I had the pleasure of working with her and was impressed by her expertise and availability. Detail-oriented, meticulous, and extremely organized, collaborating with her was a pleasure. Roberta creates unique, tailor-made experiences and dedicates herself to each couple with passion and attentive listening.

Noella was with us when we started planning our wedding in 2021… because of the twists and turns of life we had to reschedule our wedding day 2x before actually completing the day in 2024 Despite that, Noella stayed with us throughout the entire process, she was a sounding board for advice, trouble shooting and go to’s in an area where we were novices and she the expert! When the day itself came around, I had so much fun! Noella worked effortlessly with my maid of honour ensuring the day went smoothly and engaged every member of my family; you would argue that it was her wedding day and not mine!! That is how involved and how empathetic she was towards my family and I on the day I am grateful for her input and her help, I can confidently say Noella is a friend and would choose her if we had to do it all over again!! Xxx

Ava was an amazing addition to our wedding shoot today. She was on hand for every issue that arose and kept the day flowing and on time. Amazing service and completely blew me away. I've now added her to my recommended wedding suppliers list. Thank you Ava, an amazing Wedding Planner and on the day co-ordinator!

Noella was a pleasure to work with, she was extremely helpful and professional on the day making my life so much easier. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to deliver on their big day. So if your looking for a london wedding planner Noella is your girl🙌🏾

Noelle, 5 stars will never be enough. I cannot even express how wonderful you were on the day. We hired Noelle as our OTD coordinator, being a perfectionist myself I was so worried to have someone else come in and run the day for us. How wrong could I have been! Everything was P-E-R-F-E-C-T!!!! Noelle had our intentions at the fore front of any decisions made. She managed me (the bride) amazingly well, checking in all throughout the day to make sure I was happy and fed! (Thank you) Nothing was too big a problem or a hassle for this queen ❤️ not only receiving praise from us, but all of our guests were absolutely obsessed. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Could not have done it without you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I don’t think we can put into words how much Camilla has done for us! She gave us the best wedding ever - we are over the moon. She thought of absolutely everything, her for detail is outstanding, she has incredible taste and vision. Our wedding was perfect, she made it hassle free and knew exactly when to bother us with details and when to take charge. Of particular note is the presentation for cutting the cake, she transformed the area into a dream-like sequence with floating candles, an arch and a neon sign with our new surname. She had a vision and executed it brilliantly - this was all her and was the most beautiful thing to behold! Additionally, Camilla and her assistants are so lovely - we think of Camilla as a lifelong friend after only knowing her through the last 9 months as our planner extraordinaire. Camilla’s greatest strength is that she cares so much and you can really feel it. She made the whole experience (which was very daunting for two people who are not remotely organised) amazing! Her military precision planning meant everything came off seamlessly. We are delighted and the photos show her excellence! We cannot recommend her enough!

Camilla was awesome! Could not have done it without her! I live overseas and she organised it all, visited venues, found suppliers and kept the check list and payment schedule on track. We literally could not have done it without her. Not only was my eyes and ears, Camilla is a complete pleasure to work with. A lovely, charming woman who eas my right hand for year. Sad for it all to be over. Grazie mille, Camilla!

Camilla is such a lovely human being and is a star wedding planner! I am SO glad that we decided to get her help with planning the rest of our wedding and coordinating on the day. She had amazing suggestions for additional elements and had great supplier contacts. I'm so glad she arranged for us to have an extra walkthrough at the venue to help visualise everything we would want on the day. She also suggested that my husband walk down the aisle with his mum which was such a beautiful addition to our ceremony. In the weeks leading up to the big day, she had everything completely under control and I felt like I could just focus on the task of getting married and basking in the glow of the day. She is super responsive over WhatsApp, ready to answer any question I threw her way. My only regret is that we didn’t bring Camilla on earlier in the planning process to get her steer on more things!

Rating: 5 / 5

We hired Camilla to be an ‘on the day co-ordinator’ for our wedding - I needed a right hand woman who I could trust to hand over the reigns and make sure all my planning and preparation came to life the way I imagined. Camilla was there for me throughout the whole wedding process to bounce ideas off, but most importantly, she gave me the confidence to relax on my wedding day (I’m a control freak!) - she was a pleasure to be around, kept everything running smoothly, and made sure any hiccups were dealt with. Camilla has now become a friend, I admire her work greatly. Do not hesitate to book her services.

Less than a year before our wedding, we contacted Tala at UCG Luxury Destination Events to be our wedding planner. Tala herself came highly recommended through friends and word of mouth, and from the moment we met, I could see this was by far the best decision we could make. My husband and I live in London but our families are in different parts of the world. To quickly organise a personal, beautiful, heartfelt, fun wedding for 130 guests coming from all corners of the globe was daunting to us, but a piece of cake for UCG! Tala got to work immediately by getting to know us personally and then asking us the right questions in order to shortlist and organise viewings of venues in the city as well as in the nearby countryside that would fit within our wants, needs, budget, and overall vibe of what we wanted for our wedding. She found us the most beautiful manor house/events hall in Surrey (easy access for our guests – an hour from the city and near Heathrow Airport) that provided the "English Garden" beauty, romanticism and escapism we wanted to highlight for our guests coming from the Middle East, the US, and other parts of the UK during the summer of 2022. They even had wild peacocks roaming around the gardens! From then on and throughout the planning, UCG remained incredible – and we are still just so grateful. Tala's attention to detail, speed at which she would organise the next thing on "the list", her professionalism, rapport with vendors, her joyful and friendly demeanour kept us calm during what is known to be a stressful time! No matter what silly question we had or what anxious feeling we had, Tala was there. To hire someone who became a good friend was just the icing on top. She drove with us to flower vendors, she dealt with negotiations, we would bounce ideas off of each other, she would scour the net to find things we didn't even think of, all to add that extra personal touch. Tala worked tirelessly to make our vision come to life, and did it all with a smile. Many wedding/event planners just do what they've outlined in the contract, but not UCG – they go above and beyond. The morning after our wedding, Tala had organised a box for me of little mementos from the night! Honestly, thanks to UCG's impeccable planning, we did not have one stress on our wedding day. I don't even think there were any "fires" to put out because they are that amazing. Our wedding guests even praised the effortless, loving atmosphere during our special day and knew it was all down to UCG. Five Stars is not enough – would HIGHLY recommend UCG Luxury Destination Events. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It was an absolute pleasure working with UCG Luxury Destination Events! We had our wedding in Bodrum in 2016, where Tala really turned our dreams into reality. She really “gets it!” All our friends were super happy that everything was so organized from the minute they started planning the trip until getting on the flight home. We had guests coming from London, Dubai and Egypt so they really appreciated the smooth logistics. No detail was ever overlooked.

Rating: 5 / 5

Tala and the team at UCG Luxury Destination events were absolutely fantastic when planning our wedding in Bodrum, and we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a first class event planner. It was an absolute pleasure working with Tala over a two year engagement. She was unfailingly supportive, knowledgable and worked with us to help curate and pull together a vision that honestly could not have gone better! Her experience was absolutely vital and she was always in communication to help at different stages of the process. Planning a wedding abroad (in an area you don’t really know!) is a tough ask but she helped guide us through every step of the way - using her knowledge of Bodrum to help blend the best of local with an international and luxury feel. On a personal level, we wanted to thank her for remaining so calm and reassuring throughout! Her steady hand and experience was vital for steering us through some of the more stressful moments when bringing everything together. Would highly recommend for your next destination wedding or event!

We celebrated our special day at the Rosewood London and we couldn’t have imagined our wedding day without Tala. From start to finish, she were an absolute dream to work with. She took the time to understand our vision, added thoughtful touches that made the day feel uniquely ours, and handled every detail with grace and professionalism. The level of care they put into planning, organizing, and coordinating every part of our celebration was beyond impressive. We felt completely at ease, knowing everything was in such capable hands. Our guests are still raving about the seamless experience and the beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a planner who genuinely cares about making your dream day come to life! Thank you so much

Kristina is one of giants in the wedding industry. What sets her apart from others is her ability to keep a cool head from start to finish. She is always professional and friendly but can be tough when needed. It goes without saying she has an amazing vision and eye for detail.

I've been working with Kristina and her team for the last 3 years. I have enjoyed every second of planning through to execution of events with her and her team. Kristina's attention to detail is superb, always on top of things and couldn't do more for her couples and clients to make their day even more special. Highly recommended to work with for your big day!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kristina and her team on a number of luxury events, from intimate parties to extravagant high end weddings. You will genuinely not find a more professional, friendly, enthusiastic and hardworking planner. The attention to detail and dedication to creating the spectacular is incredible. Whatever venue, location or style you choose Kristina and her incredible team will make it happen.

Henry was helped with a number of events from a Christening to a dinner for 40 people. He never needs reminding of anything and can organise the whole event or simply provide staff. He is a delight to deal with and completely reassuring so that you can really enjoy your own event. He is the only person I would turn to when needing a party planned as I know he would remove stress and add a certain something to make it an event to remember.

Rating: 5 / 5

Wow, what a night! Henry and his team delivered a truly memorable party. The attention to detail was brilliant and Henry really knows his stuff - from all the planning and picking and managing the best suppliers to running the night so it’s a seamless operation. The house looked superb and the garden looked magical. Henry is also an absolute pleasure to deal with and a real gentleman. I’m sure we could probably have had a decent party if we’d used a number of party planners, but it wouldn’t have been anywhere near as brilliant or special. I very much look forward to working together again.

Henry and his team ensured we delivered a seamless evening for over 200 guests attending our very special HOPE Ball - a fundraising event for our local hospital charity, which raised c£75,000. Henry's professionalism and attention to detail is second to none and we hope to work with Henry and his team again in the future.

At relatively short notice Henry Bonas Ltd organised a fabulous 21st birthday party for my son at a central London venue. Gee organised it with great calm and care. Her experience with all the planning was invaluable and her presence with her colleague on the night meant the whole evening went extremely smoothly. Whilst expensive the final bill did reflect the cost estimates originally mentioned. Everybody enjoyed an evening to remember in a special venue. Having Gee there meant as hosts we didn’t have to worry about logistics at all, instead we could just enjoy the evening. I would highly recommend Henry Bonas!

I reached out to Chenai to help plan our wedding this summer with a relatively short lead up time and we are so happy that we found her - she pulled off a wedding beyond what we ever expected, and we, our friends and family all had the absolute best day. Her and her team's expertise in organizing weddings is evident from the beginning - and she focuses on both style and guest experience to ensure a beautiful, fun celebration. She has great connections with and knowledge of the best vendors, so can quickly help select the best ones to work with for your vision. On the day itself, everything proceeded smoothly, thanks to Chenai’s careful planning and her on-site team’s execution. Every detail was well-coordinated, with no issues arising throughout the event. Their seamless management allowed us to fully enjoy every moment of our special day without worry. She’s also a pleasure to work with, professional and highly skilled, but also warm, fun, and helps put you at ease. She makes sure to understand exactly what her clients want, then bringing those ideas to life. Her calm demeanor and positive attitude made the entire planning process enjoyable. We will be forever grateful!

We cannot recommend Chenai enough!! As soon as we found her website we knew she would be the perfect person to plan our wedding. The team were on top of everything the whole way through the planning process which meant that we were completely stress-free. Chenai has an amazing way of knowing what you want better than you do and brought all of our vague ideas to life! Even down to having some Ghanaian flare at our otherwise traditional, English wedding. We had the pleasure of having Chenai, Tariq and Aaron with us on our wedding day meaning that everything went off without a hitch and we knew that everything was taken care of, enabling us to relax and enjoy the day.

I contacted Chenai after my wedding had been postponed due to covid. I had lost all enthusiasm in wedding planning and needed support and advice mainly for styling! Chenai was so supportive and created a design board after listening to my ideas and making some beautiful suggestions. I fell in love with planning the wedding again, and felt confident that everything was going to look beautiful without the worry that things may not work the way I had imagined. Chenai eliminated all the stress. Our wedding was perfect. My only regret is not finishing ByChenai Events sooner.

Rating: 5 / 5

We cannot speak highly enough of Chenai - she genuinely is the best at what she does. Her attention to detail and ability to instil a sense of calm across a stressful period is truly amazing. The greatest thing about our working relationship with Chenai is that she has now become a friend of ours. She stepped in at a time where a former wedding planner that we had was creating a lot of stress and not meeting our requirements, and Chenai came in and completely stabilised and enhanced the process. When you work with Chenai, you are working with someone who is attentive, who is committed, and truly passionate about creating the best possible event for you. Whether that's a wedding, ball or a gala, she will quite literally create the best day of your life. Can't recommend her highly enough - she is fantastic to work with!

Tash is without a doubt the most incredible wedding planner you can work with. She planned, created and executed the most incredible wedding day for us - she removed all stress from the process, meaning we could properly enjoy the build up and the day itself. Tash is incredibly calm, organised and efficient - no ask is too much. There are so many behind the scenes activity that Tash deals with and handles on her own minimising all stress for people hosting the wedding/party. She gets the best out of her suppliers and is an absolute joy to work with. Thank you Tash for creating an absolutely unforgettable wedding day.

Tash from Sandeman Events was the event planner for our wedding which was originally due to take place in July 2020. Even before Covid arrived the process of planning a wedding with Tash was so easy. I don't feel like I was always particularly articulate in describing what I wanted for the day but Tash's has such an intuitive approach which made it feel like she read my mind with everything that was delivered. All of the suppliers she works with are just extraordinary and she was so careful to work within our budget. I had the added experience of working with Tash through three subsequent postponements of our wedding day due to Covid. From July 2020, to September 2020 to May 2021 and finally to July 2021. There is absolutely no way we would have managed through all those postponements without Tash. Due to the strong relationships she has with her suppliers we were able to move the wedding at no additional cost and lost no deposits. When we finally got to it the day was so beyond what we had imagined and there was just no stress at all for us as Tash and her team take care of everything in the lead up, on the day and afterwards. I only wish I could get married again just so I can plan another wedding with Sandeman Events!!

Tash is the best wedding planner ever. From the moment we spoke back in 2021, we knew she was the one to snap up, with her calming aura and can-do attitude. Nothing was ever too much trouble and she completely understood our vision and made our dreams come to life. No detail was missing and the attention to detail on the day was second to none. During the planning process, she kept us updated at all times, and if there was ever a problem, she'd inform us with her calming approach and always have a solution. It goes without saying, our fairy tale wedding wouldn't have been quite so magical without Tash. Snap her up, quick!

From the moment we met Tash (Natasha) we knew we were in safe hands. Tash has an amazing ability to appear calm at all times. I’m sure there were times when she didn’t feel that calm but she never passed anything onto her clients. Tash is a true professional. We were involved at every stage. As a result, as Mother of the Bride, I was able to enjoy the whole process up to and including the day itself. There was never a cross word between my daughter and I as Tash dealt with any query. There was no stress at all. My daughter and her now husband had a wonderful, magical day. The attention to detail was incredible as was the smooth running from dawn to dusk. Tash’ assistant, Katie was also fantastic on the day. I have no hesitation in recommending Sandeman Events. As a result of their calm professionalism and efficiency we all had a day to remember. Thank you Tash and Katie. Kate x
