The Best Wedding And Event Planners in Richmond, Greater London, United Kingdom (2025)

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 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.

I wish there was a 6 star rating option for Tash and Sandeman Events because they deserve more! Tash was the best event planner - making our dream wedding day come true. From the moment we met her via zoom, her calm composure and understanding of what James and I wanted from our day (even when we weren’t entirely sure ourselves!) made us feel completely relaxed as we knew we were in the hands of a total pro. Always reassuring, Tash was also happy to listen to our concerns and come up with alternative solutions. On the day itself, we were both able to just sit back and enjoy - it was honestly the best day of our lives and a huge part of that is down to Tash and her team. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you! 🧡

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!

Chenai was the perfect wedding planner for our big fusion wedding. She had already planned some truly amazing multicultural weddings, and from the first call, she grasped exactly what we wanted. Chenai was fantastic at keeping note of all the little things we mentioned (and then forgot about!) and reflecting them in our big day. She and her team were extremely organised and professional, ensuring that our guests had a great time on the day. She also exudes this warmth and calmness - which is helpful when planning a big event with hundreds of people and lots of constantly moving parts! We trusted her completely and she delivered a fantastic, heartfelt event and celebration that was so true to us. She was fantastic at picking the right suppliers and great people to work with - we had no issues in the run-up or on the day itself. The florals, videography, photography, catering, decor and much more were spot on. Everything was so beautiful and designed to perfection. Thanks to Chenai, we were able to be completely in the moment and enjoy every single second of our wedding weekend. If you want the wedding of your dreams, definitely pick Chenai to support you! 🎉👰🤵

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!

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Vanessa as our wedding planner, and she was truly the heart and soul behind making our day everything we dreamed of and more. Planning a destination wedding in the UK from the US was no small feat, but Vanessa made the entire process not only manageable but enjoyable. I interviewed six different wedding planners, and from the very beginning, I knew Vanessa was the right choice. I do not regret my decision at all—she exceeded every expectation. Vanessa was with us every step of the way, guiding us through each challenge with grace and expertise. No detail was too small for her to handle, and she made sure everything was perfect, from the big decisions to the smallest finishing touches. On the wedding day, Vanessa’s incredible work ethic and passion shone through. She didn’t just oversee the day; she took the time to steam out all three of my dresses, making sure every detail was flawless. That level of care went far beyond what we could have expected. All of our guests were just as impressed, commenting on how professional, warm, and organized she was. Her presence brought a sense of calm and confidence to everyone. Vanessa truly became an indispensable part of our day, and I honestly could not have done it without her. She made what could have been an overwhelming process smooth and easy, allowing us to enjoy every moment. We will forever be grateful to her for going above and beyond to make our wedding an unforgettable experience. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will exceed every expectation, Vanessa is the one!

We cannot say enough good things about Rebecca, not only is she an absolutely fantastic wedding planner, she is a delight to be around! Little did Rebecca know when she took us on in 2019 she would end up planning three weddings for us (!), first the one that didn't happen due to COVID, then a small intimate wedding with a couple of friends during the pandemic, and finally a big celebration this year. Every detail was beautiful, she is so creative, organised, warm and professional. Nothing was too much trouble - she coordinated the most beautiful flowers and venue as well as creative extras like gift bags and a creche for children, coffee and mimosa bars - even luggage tag favours / place-cards. Sadly some beloved family could not make it at the last minute, and she helped me sort a projector for a speech recording which was so special. Above all, on the day she made everything run so smoothly that we could just relax and have a great time. It says quite a lot that when we gave thanks to our family and guests, we gave a shout out to Rebecca and everyone cheered despite them having only met her that day! Do yourself a favour if you are planning a wedding, hire Rebecca!

I was delighted when Rebecca Kobus was employed by C&W to plan their wedding at Two Temple Place last October. Rebecca is one of the hardest working, most passionate people within the wedding industry and everything is always seamless and easy with her on board. From a venue perspective, Rebecca’s extensive knowledge of working in similar historic and unique venues (both as a supplier and in-house) is invaluable and gives us complete reassurance that all venue hire rules will be followed and the conservation of the building will never be jeopardised. Rebecca makes wedding planning seem easy when in fact its anything but! Nothing is too much trouble and her genuine desire to give her couples the best day possible is evident from the get-go. Rebecca is one of our most trusted recommended planners and we are thrilled that at least another two of our couples will using her services her at Two Temple Place this year. Head of Events - Two Temple Place

We have worked with Rebecca for both a wedding and corporate event. On both occasions, it has been a delight to work with Rebecca. She has a great eye for detail and her styling is second to none. She worked with us to ensure that our clients visions was brought to life and she paid attention to every detail from decor to setup. The end results were truly stunning. I highly recommend Rebecca for any planning needs!

Working with Rebecca was the best decision we made in planning our wedding! She's a great listener and was willing to be involved in decision-making as little or much as we wanted in each area. She helped us highlight our personalities and create exactly the day we wanted to have. Her attention to detail and her style are amazing. Working with her was a delight!

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.

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 planned our wedding from A to Z and it was literally our dream wedding. Her professionalism, dedication, attention to details and hard work are remarkable. She poured her heart into organizing the perfect wedding for us. It felt to me as if she was organizing her own considering the amount of efforts she put into ensuring that everything would be perfect and going the extra mile. On D Day, there was a storm just before the ceremony, everything had to be moved inside suddenly. I was extremely disappointed. But seeing that the meteo cleared out, Camilla went above and beyond and with the help of the hotel staff, arranged for everything to be moved back outside quickly. I was amazing! Throughout the process, Camilla and her assistant Giulia were a calming force. Because of them we were extremely relaxed on wedding day as we knew we were fully taken care of. Do yourself a favor and organize your wedding with Camilla!

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!

Having worked with Jenna on a number of high profile parties and events. She is an outstanding event organiser, with an eye for detail matching her clients wants and needs. She works with the best possible suppliers & teams for her events, and interprets her clients wishes and requirements to ensure the best parties possible. As a result she deservedly can be described as the events planner to call on whatever the style or aspirations required. It continues to be a delight to work with her.

If you need a wedding planner, you have found her!! I had the BEST experience with Jenna (I live in America and wanted to be wed at home, in England). I had absolutely zero worries and so my experience was so smooth and happy. There was nothing too big or too small that Jenna wasn't happy to do. We had many meetings online with the time difference yet no hindrance on communication and feeling special. Jenna is professional, so kind and makes your wedding feel its the only one she is organizing. I always felt heard and I just cannot recommend her enough!! You will need to see my wedding pics to understand that she doesn't have one style and so any dream you have, she will make it come true! Thank you Jenna xx

I cannot recommend Jenna enough. My husband are I were living in the US whilst planning our wedding but we knew we wanted our wedding in the UK. I found Jenna through her instagram and after speaking with her, we knew she was the person we wanted to plan our wedding for us. Jenna is incredibly professional and takes out all the stress from planning. Every supplier she recommended to us were amazing and fit exactly with the original picture of what we wanted for the wedding. I enjoyed our monthly catch ups and she gave us great advice whenever we needed it. Her recommendations and insight on all aspects of the wedding were invaluable. She supported us through changing our wedding due to Covid and we had no issues moving our date and suppliers. On the day, she made everything run so smoothly and her assistant Frances was equally lovely and great at what she does. We could not have had the wedding we had if it were not for Jenna. If you want someone who is knowledgeable, supportive, a great person and gets the job done with no fuss, I'd advise you to work with Jenna.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Jenna on a recent event, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome! From beginning to end, her professionalism and attention to detail were second to none. The final result was truly breathtaking—elegance in every detail. We can’t recommend Jenna highly enough to anyone in need of a talented, creative, and reliable event planner. Her expertise really does bring that extra something special to any event!

When planning our wedding, we explored several wedding planners, but SW Events stood out by a mile with their enthusiasm, excitement, and energy. LaToya, Hemali, and Ajay form a fantastic team of friendly, funny, and reliable professionals. They not only captured the essence of the wedding we envisioned (we are very particular and fussy!) but also saw it through to completion with smiles and laughter along the way. Throughout the year of planning, through constant meetings and emails, they were there every step of the way to guide us and help us plan. Their attention to detail meant no stone was left unturned, and no detail was missed. Whether it was through aisleplanner, emails or whatsapp, communication with the team was always easy, and they were always there when we needed them. Their level of professionalism and dedication is exceptional. It truly felt like they were personally invested in ensuring our wedding was perfect. Their enthusiasm and commitment to bringing our dream to life were evident in every detail, making our special day even more memorable. Thank you, SW Events, and thank you LaToya, Hemali, and Ajay.

We have had the pleasure of working with SW Events on numerous weddings across the UK, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. As wedding videographers, we value the professionalism, attention to detail, and seamless coordination that SW Events consistently brings to every event. From small, intimate gatherings to grand celebrations with unforgettable parties, their ability to create elegant, classy, and memorable experiences for every couple is exceptional. Working alongside their team is always a joy, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration on many more incredible weddings, both in the UK and internationally. SW Events truly elevate every event they are a part of, and we are grateful for the opportunity to work with such a talented team.

Honestly the best decision we could have made when it came to planning our wedding day! Also both LaToya and Ajay are fantastic and such lovely people to work with. For us, it felt they listened to everything we said, every aspiration and idea and then they made it happen! Planning When we started to think about planning our wedding we were unsure whether we needed a planner, and after speaking to a couple of wedding planners we were put off by limitations some of them imposed, but then we spoke with LaToya. Following our first call with LaToya our minds completed changed. We spoke frankly, we spoke about budgets / expectations and importantly we spoke about what we want our wedding to be like and not what we wanted it to be like. LaToya understood us from the get go and also her energy and enthusiasm is infectious. When meeting Ajay the first time, we saw the balance in his practical thinking, we knew why they work so well as a team. Re-planning We are very grateful for the wedding they created with us, it was beyond our expectations and looked and felt amazing. Their experience in wedding planning shone through when it came to working with suppliers and also the little details of the day - there are far too many examples to give. Even with the pandemic and several iterations of wedding format, guest numbers, restriction requirements, floor planning, etc, LaToya and Ajay kept us calm and more often knew more about what the wedding restriction guidelines meant before others. Partly because how hands on they are in the wedding sector, championing the suppliers in the sector and the bride/grooms. On the day The day ran so smoothly from our perspective, and that of the guests - it was a dream! That was down to SW Events team being so detailed focused and also being so calm on the day (they were probably running around putting out fires in the background, but for everyone involved and our guests it was a stress free event - our guests have commented positively about pretty much every aspect of the day. Ajay, you almost got a variety show, we think the creativity and vision we created for a seated reception was nothing anyone could have expected and it was such a treat for everyone - this is down to both your creativity but also experience with weddings and venues to pull it off. You knew exactly what would and wouldn't work. LaToya and Ajay As we stated, you two are amazing! You made the planning process fun and together we created a one of a kind wedding which is truly memorable. Thank you so much! Aneesha & Ash

We can't thank SW Events enough for all of their help over the past year - they planned our wedding reception to perfection. They were efficient, knowledgeable and lots of fun to spend time with during the planning process! We had the utmost confidence in them to make sure everything ran smoothly and the day was even better than we imagined. We would recommend them to anyone and want to give a huge thanks to Hemali, LaToya and Ajay for making our special day everything we wanted and more!

Outstanding all round. Nobody does it better. Henry, Chloe and the whole team make such an effort to make sure everything is perfect. Their pre-planning is excellent, thoughtful and detailed. They work with a network of high quality suppliers. The whole HB team is deep, expert and incredibly eager to help. But it's their effort on the day that is off the scale. Chloe was ever-present and Henry was the last person to leave our wedding reception, which was described by our guests as somewhere between "amazing" and "the best wedding ever". I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone organizing a big party, wedding or similar.

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 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.

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'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!

Krissy of Sweetpea & Blossom Weddings is an absolute pleasure to work with! Krissy has amazing vision and able to create truly stunning and opulent weddings! She is professional and her organisational skills and attention to details are brilliant. Highly recommended!

Kristina Kempton is a joy to work with. Her eye for design and attention to every single detail results in the most beautiful weddings from start to finish. Her exceptional experience and professionalism gives her the ability to bring together the very best of the wedding Industry talent to create something that is truly unique and special to you as a couple. I very much look forward to working with her again in the future!

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. Kristina is driven by a passion to deliver the most exquisite, personally crafted, one-off day especially for you, delivered with a totally grounded sense of fun and flare for the very best.

Easy weddings UK is incredible! They provided me with a list of amazing wedding venues within my budget along with the prices and wedding packages the venues offer. On top of this, they arrange all your viewings for you so you don't have to spend so much time contacting venues. Aneeza in particular who made all my bookings for me was a godsend! She was beyond helpful, always kept me in the loop, was extremely efficient and had a great relationship with all the venues so made the process really smooth!

Aneeza from Easy weddings UK is incredible! Without her help through this journey (might I add 2 years of back and fourths) finding the perfect venue for us would not have been possible! Aneeza shared a list of amazing wedding venues within my budget along with the prices and wedding packages the venues offer. She also arranged wedding viewings getting me in contact with all venue contacts and catering vendors too! Really appreciate Aneeza's help, super speedy with responses and HONEST which is something so hard to find in this elusive industry!

Wedding planning has been really stressful for us, so we are really glad to have Kelly helping us with venue selections and recommendations. She espond really quickly, is organised, and the venue options she shared were all aligned to the criteria we told her, and even helped me negotiate customised deals and discounts with select venues. It has been a pleasure working with Kelly, and although we ended up choosing another venue instead, we really appreciate Kelly and her wealth of knowledge and network as it has made the process much easier. She is an asset to all the brides. Definitely recommend.

Easy Weddings were extremely helpful and great to work with. We were looking for a wedding venue of which they have wide range for great venues of different types and price brackets, allowing us to really get value. Aneeza was truly amazing to work with, she helped us find our ideal wedding venue and went above and beyond to answer all the silly questions we had and even assisted us to get the most from our budget. Thanks Aneeza
