The Best Wedding And Event Planners in Andover Down, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

5 stars are not enough! From the day I met Jodie she put my mind at ease! I didn't have a clue where to begin planning a wedding, Jodie patiently sat down with me (and my Pinterest board) and went through everything. Jodie made examples of the centerpieces I had shown her in our colour scheme and they were exactly what we had wanted. Closer to the date Jodie met with myself and my husband and made sure we had everything we needed and reminded us of things we'd forgotten along the way. Throughout the whole process Jodie was never pushy for us to spend more money and worked alongside us with our budget. On the day everything was beautiful and the time and effort spent on every little detail was obvious. I would recommend event themes for any occasion and will definitely be using them again for future events! Thank you!

We had a memorable wedding thanks to this company. So professional but friendly at the same time., with great attention to detail. Some things we forgot, thank god for Jodie she was good at coming up with the finer things! We got everything we asked for and more! The flowers where incredible and the colour scheme exactly what we wanted. I could not recommend more!

Jodie's talent and skill is breathtaking. Her artistic arrangements are just beautiful and her ability to truly listen to her clients makes the displays and the work she produces so personal and unique. She very kindly did all the flowers for our recent wedding in Hampshire and the comments we had regarding our bouquets, table displays and more, were endless. Thank you Jodie, sincerely for being the amazing talented person that you are. You are truly brilliant.

I attempted a wedding fair at the holiday inn and event Themes immediately caught my eye the table display looked beautiful and I knew I I wanted them to decorate our venue. Unfortunately our wedding got cancelled three times down to covid but jodie was amazing and kept in contact with me all the way through. On our wedding day the room looked incredible, the attention to detail was spotless and I couldn’t of been more happy it was perfect. Thank you so much jodie for making my wedding dreams come true 🥰

We cannot thank Anouska from Raggy&Boo enough, every single element of our wedding was delivered to perfection in her capable hands. No job was too big or too small, she was ready and waiting for our entrance to the venue with a glass of champagne and a smile and was just the most wonderful, calm and competent energy. We really, truly, mean it when we say we couldn't have done it without her and we would recommend her to everyone.

Anouska was a superstar. She managed the day of our wedding effortlessly and with a smile the whole time. It took a weight off our minds and allowed us to enjoy our special day. She also helped us massively in the lead-up to the day with all sorts of things

Had the pleasure of working for Raggy and Boo on new years eve. The evening was at a private residence and looked absolutely amazing, the staff, catering, and music were absolutely on point and I could not fault at all, everyone worked to create a amazing atmosphere for the clients and their guests. I would definitely work with Anouska again and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a experienced event planner that really goes over and beyond for their client's, her knowledge and contacts in the industry gives her clients the very best suppliers to make any event one to remember. Thanks for letting me be part of the fantastic new year's eve celebration and look forward to working with you soon. Alan Granville Hampshire wedding DJ

We worked with Anouska on a New Year's Eve party and couldn't recommend her more highly! She had a really clear overarching vision for the evening whilst also being open to suggestions from us. Everything was really well organised and the whole event was a great success. We look forward to working with Raggy&Boo again at some point.

We hired Suzanne to organise my little sisters wedding. From the outset Suzanne was absolutely charming, knowledgeable, amazingly organised and clearly passionate about what she does. She took on board all of our ideas and used her experience and expertise to bring these to fruition. She was so much fun and had so many ideas and suggestions that we hadn't even thought of. The day was absolutely beautiful we couldn't of asked for anything better. Everyone was so impressed with the attention to detail and all the little extra touches. Thank you Suzanne we could not have done it without you.

Where do I start? . . . . . We had a lovely marquee wedding at the end of August and, to allow us to fully enjoy the day, we went looking for a wedding co-ordinator to run the day itself (as we were doing all the organising ourselves leading up to it) - what we ended up with was the Mary Poppins of wedding co-ordinators (complete with bottomless bag ready for ANY situation that may occur). Suzanne was everything we could have hoped for and more. From our first meeting with her, she presented herself as professional, experienced, dedicated and a truly lovely person to boot. While we didn't hire her services leading up to the wedding, she still made sure that she kept in touch, giving us little snippets of assistance in terms of where we were with our plans, drawing up a very comprehensive list of information to help with the structure of the day and checking in with us. Her insight when she came on a site visit was invaluable, to the point that we changed our intentions for where our guests entered (and what we finished with was truly perfect as well as feeling very natural). I was also able to reach out to Suzanne for help with other services, as her list of contacts was vast and each one with a proven track record (otherwise she wouldn't have recommended them), and it was down to her help that we were able to find a staffing agency for the waiters we needed. Her contacts also came in very, very useful as, a week before the wedding, our evening food supplier had to drop out. Suzanne was actually able to find some alternatives for us at such very late notice. Suzanne also insisted on coming onsite the day prior to the wedding to make sure that she was completely familiar with the set-up and what needed to be done the next day eg: We could set the tables up but the cutlery, crockery & glassware was arriving the morning of the wedding. When we arrived at the wedding, we were greeted by Suzanne and a member of staff with a) umbrellas (thankfully only needed for all of 5 minutes) and a drink, which was a lovely touch and epitomised the high level of excellence that Suzanne works to. We walked down the lawn to the marquee and when we got inside, it was the most incredibly magical experience - Suzanne had made sure that everything was exactly as it should be; the tables looked fantastic, the cake stand was brimming and everyone was laughing and talking with a Pimms or lemonade! Throughout the whole day, everything ran so incredibly smoothly with Suzanne's firm hand on the tiller. At no point did the service any of the staff provided seem rushed, lacking, or in any way anything other than amazing and that was down to her supervision; she had everything prepped and planned from the teapots & cake plates to the toast glasses and brownies. With a plane to catch the next day for her own 20th anniversary, Suzanne went well beyond the call of duty and at least the last hour of her time was off the clock as she just wanted to make sure that everything was sorted before she left, leaving us with so much less tidying to do ourselves the next day - it was great to see someone so invested in making your day special. Thank you from both of us Amy & David xx

I can’t t explain how perfect Suzanne was from the beginning until the end of the wedding shoot day! Suzanne is very responsible, organised, careful and attended to all of our needs entirely, she was always aware of everything that was in the timetable, making sure everything worked fine and making the day so easy, relaxed and one memorable event. Highly recommended!

Anybody who is trying to find the solution on how to plan a succesful wedding, look no further. Booking Suzanne to help plan and orgasnise our wedding was the best thing we did. I can honestly say our wedding would not have been the same without her help. My wife and I could relax fully knowing Suzanne had everything under control on the day which made everything easy. I hope you make the same decision we did as you wont regret it!

Super happy with the service from Diamond Lush. They were always very fast to respond to emails which was very handy for wedding planning. We rented two large cherry blossom canopy trees and the lush flower wall. They both looked fantastic and we had a lot of compliments from wedding guests. They worked brilliantly as backgrounds for photos and for making the venue look pretty. Zero faff or stress with them delivering and setting up the items which they did on time and quickly. I would definitely rent items from them again if I organised another event.

We can’t recommend Diamond Lush Events enough. Right from our first enquiry, through to the day of the wedding, the team were all amazing. So professional and extremely helpful. Put us right at ease at a stressful time. The venue looked stunning, more than we had hoped for, we had so many compliments on the flowers, especially the beautiful flower arch. We will definitely use them again for future events, and have recommended them to all our friends getting married soon! Thanks again team DLE x

Our expectations were exceeded by Diamond Lush Events when we saw our wedding venue decorated for the first time! Every detail was simply stunning and exceeded our expectations. There was such an huge range of decorations to choose from and everything from our tables to the aisle looked elegant and brought our vision to life. Their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. We received so many compliments from our guests, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you for making our special day even more magical!

Where do I start. The DLE team are the best in the business. Nothing is too much trouble. The venue was decorated beautifully and I couldnt recommend them enough. The quality of the set up and products complimented our chosen venue perfectly. Highly recommend, thank you so so much Jen for making my wedding day and vision complete xxx

We hired the Pop up Photo Box for our wedding reception and it was absolutely fantastic. The props and the back drop fit well to our theme (we got married in Vegas a month ago). Kayleigh (sorry if I got this wrong) was so friendly and helpful, the guests were also loving her fun vibe. We had as many prints as we wanted, which guests could stick in the signing book that was included. I was also sent all the photos by WeTransfer just in case any were lost and I can see all the pictures taken on the night! Would definitely recommend.

We hired Pop up Photo Box from Aston Dobson Events for our wedding. They were incredible and provided a great service with a fantastically large range of props for guests to use! We really appreciated the lovely book which guests were able to put a copy of their photos in and write a message. I can’t thank the girl running the photo booth enough as she pointed out that she hadn’t seen the bride or groom have photos and alerted guests to go get us before she packed away! We really appreciated this and her giving us time to get photos with our family and friends. We also love that we have received digital copies of all the photos! Amazing service which added so much fun to the evening. We highly recommend :)

Pop Up Photo Box was an amazing addition to our wedding celebration!! The guests absolutely loved it, and we have loved looking through our guestbook at all the different photos! Aston was brilliant; he replied promptly, nothing was too much trouble and he made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. Charlie was our attendant for the day and she was incredible!! She had wonderful energy, interacted with the guests and made sure everyone had so much fun. There was a wide selection of props and it was such a hit, people kept going back again and again! I cannot recommend Pop Up Photo Box enough!

We hired Aston & the team back in April 2024 for our wedding. Fast coward to August 2024 and my Husband turn’t 30. I knew I had to contact Aston and the team to get them to come to his surprise birthday party. I contacted Aston, as always so quick to respond and just so friendly. On the day, we had an issue where the initial venue cancelled on us. We sourced another venue (only 10 minutes away) and the Pop Up team were first there. I would now not have an event, without these fabulous people in attendance- they really are the best. Couldn’t recommend them more. Thanks All - Megan Roca x

It's a wonderful venue run by a lovely family. They have opened their home up as a day centre for the disabled called James Place and also use the house as a wedding venue which has had some great reviews. Beautifully landscaped and well maintained.

We had a wake here for 150 people in July and we can't praise this place highly enough. For starters the building is beautiful (would make such a lovely wedding venue!) and the grounds are spacious and well kept. Then there's the staff, Billie could not do enough to help make sure our day was perfect, from the moment we met with her she has been so helpful, going above and beyond to ensure the day went exactly as we wanted. And on the day of the event she was helpful, friendly and had a smile on her face the whole time. The rest of the staff were also all so polite, prompt and helpful. Can't fault them. The food was also incredible. Billie helped ensure we had enough without overdoing it and everyone said how great it was (so much praise for the chicken wings!). We had plenty of options to choose from and all dietary needs were easily catered for. Beautifully presented and tasty as hell! For what was a really difficult day for us as a family, Penton Park and it's staff made it perfect.

Went to a Jellypop entertainment disney princess party. Beautiful house and grounds fantastic day

Danielle, Guy, Michelle and the team were absolutely incredible from the get go. Not only are they professional and highly experienced, but they are friendly and approachable and go the extra mile to ensure that your special day is exactly how you want it to be. The venue is absolutely stunning and we have had so many compliments from guests about how lovely the staff were on the day itself. We couldn't have asked for more and would highly recommend Penton Park as a wedding venue - it is great value for money and was more than perfect. Thank you. Gemma and Michael

We had such a great experience with Chapter J Weddings & Events. They were attentive, easy to work with and professional. They provided everything we needed with the full planning package, including decor and catering. From start to finish the attention to detail from Jade and her team was outstanding. We 100% recommend and will be using again for future parties!

We had Jade for on the day co-ordination of our wedding, and also had 3 of her staff accompanying her. What can I say? Truly amazing to have Jade and her team, and the day would not have gone nearly so smoothly without her and the team, I would highly recommend for anyone needing a planner, DIY assistance, on the day co-ordination and staff for your event. The DIY struggle is real, and we were all prepping the venue until late into the night before the wedding, I left feeling stressed and with no idea how it would all come together. The next day after the service, I walked into the venue and couldn't believe how under control everything was! Staff were serving drinks and canapes, the venue looked gorgeous with everything perfected and in place and Jade was in full control. I could take back seat and enjoy our wedding. I wish it ended there, but unfortunately, we had a behavioral issue with a member of my family, to the point I was in tears and wanted to go home. Jade heard of this, found me, calmed me down and explained our options- none of which included the bride leaving the wedding reception! Eventually, Jade asked said person to leave the wedding, and despite some tantrums and further awful behavior, Jade made it clear to her that staying was not an option, and had her staff be aware in case of re-entry. Although an awful, and upsetting situation, Jade minimized the damage caused and managed to rescue our wedding day! Jade even got the band to play the first dance 2hrs late so that we didn't miss out on this too. Amazing woman, providing a truly invaluable service. You would be silly not to have ChapterJ involved with your big day!

We cannot thank Jade enough for her vision, expertise and guidance during our wedding planning process and day itself. Her experience put us at ease and we knew that we could trust her with our plan. Her co-ordination on the day was absolutely perfect and she dealt with many different suppliers with such ease and professionalism. Jade's calm and positive approach allowed us (and our families!) to fully enjoy the day with no worry at all. We don't know what we would have done without her!! Genuinely superwoman!

Jade catered at our family gathering on Father’s Day last Sunday. Everting went very smoothly from beginning to end. The food was delicious and very well presented. The team were punctual, smartly dressed and were a pleasure to talk to. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jade and her team again.

We recently had the pleasure of having Alan and Ru as our DJ and Master of ceremonies for our wedding at Basing House, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with their services. From the moment the day began, everything ran seamlessly. Alan and Ru handled every detail with professionalism and grace, quickly resolving any issues that arose so we could fully enjoy our special day. One of the highlights was Alan’s beautiful love story, which he read before our first dance. It added a truly magical touch to the evening that our guests still talk about. Their energy and enthusiasm kept the celebration lively, and we are incredibly grateful for their hard work and dedication. We can’t thank Alan and Ru enough for making our wedding unforgettable!

Alan and his son Ruadhan were absolutely amazing at our wedding! They kept the energy high all night, with a perfect mix of music that had everyone on the dance floor. What really stood out was how attentive they were—regularly checking in with us to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and having the celebration we dreamed of! Their professionalism and ability to read the crowd made the whole night unforgettable. If you're looking for a DJ team that brings energy, fun, and excellent service, we can't recommend Alan and Ruadhan enough!

Worth every penny and more! This man really knows what he is doing, experienced, dedicated and sophisticated. Alan met with us regularly over the run up to our wedding giving us advice when we needed and answers to questions we hadn't known we needed to ask yet! We specifically requested lots of country music and Alan absolutely understood, our guests has a great time and we all felt looked after which was all down to Alan.

This was going to be a review about a recent wedding Alan and I worked together on just last week at the gorgeous Grand Hotel in Brighton for the wedding of Sally and Phil. Alan recommended Steelasophical and Sally secured our services on the strength of that recommendation and asked us to enhance the pre ceremony and drinks reception with some uplifting Caribbean musical vibes! I could write a lot about that day and working alongside Alan, but I quickly realised this was an opportunity to broaden the scope of my inspired thoughts, praise and recommendation. I first knew of Alan right after he had just won the Wedding DJ of the Year 2019 as part of the National Wedding Industry Awards. We have a highly respected mutual friend in common Tony Winyard who I saw congratulating and singing Alans praises and I knew instantly this was someone I needed to get to know and learn more about, as Tony is not someone who lavishes praise likely!! My instincts are rarely wrong, and since 2019, Alan has proved to be a source of inspiration, fountain of knowledge and someone I consider a friend. I have heard him say that he has been within the industry for over 40 years, There are many who state they have 40 years experience, but what they mean is they have done the same thing over and over again for 40 years (nothing wrong with that. Those are the people you would normally compare purely on how much they will cost you - or as I like to say ‘a nice to have expense”) With Alan though, you can compound that 40 years number several times over in respect to acquired knowledge, learning and experience. The relentless nature of developing new skills and to a high level is staggering - Dj, Compare, MC, Host, Celebrant - and for sure you would be amazed at the impact of one of his newest additions ‘The Love Story’. He writes articles for publications, guests speaks at conventions, travels internationally to attend trade shows, seminars and training camps, attends focus groups, is brand ambassador for one of the leading providers of physical and digital professional licensed music for DJ’s and is literally a source for daily inspiration to others all over the world via his words and deeds! If you are having a life changing or life milestone event and would like help with the planning, inspiration, organisation and entertainment aspects, then Alan is your man who’s talents are worth the investment that will continue to reap dividends in great memories for years to come. Some of the reviews he receives from couples would bring tears to your eyes as its amazing how he touches lives! Alan is the assured, experienced, trusted hand at the wheel that will help navigate you through your voyage. From initial contact through to final carriages. If Alan is so good, why did he not win Wedding Dj of the year more often? … they valued him so highly that they made him a judge, a task he continues to this day!! I believe Alan to be the type of person who embraces symmetry and chemistry. It is important for him to feel a connection with his clients and for them to have trust instilled in him. As many have testified, if you are able to secure his services, you will feel truly looked after and blessed from the experience. With much love and kindest regards Gary Trotman Steelasophical Steel Band

As a fellow wedding professional, I can heartily recommend Stacey and her team to exquisitely coordinate your special day or event. I have worked on three events with Stacey, and looking forward to the next one! With Stacey, you can be assured of a real passion for your big day in expert hands!

I cannot recommend Stacey & her team enough! I worked with them for the first time last summer (although I had heard great things from other suppliers previously). It was effortless! Everything ran so seamlessly; nothing was too much trouble. They helped gather people for photos, which is always great! Such lovely people to work with, fun but professional; it felt like we’d worked together for years! I’d definitely recommend Stacey to my clients & urge clients to consider a wedding coordinator because Stacey went above & beyond for our couple & everyone else involved as well. Can we please have another wedding together soon! x

We had Stacey and her team as our on the day coordinators and honestly it was the best decision ever, I don’t know how we thought we would do it without them! The team think of everything and our day was so perfect and ran smoothly and honestly that was down to Stacey and her team, I can’t recommend them enough, we could actually relax and enjoy our wedding day, they were absolutely amazing and hands down the best money we spent on our wedding! ✨ thank you so much again Stacey! ❤️

We are so grateful to have had Stacey as our wedding coordinator – I honestly can’t say enough good things! We both agreed, that hiring Stacey was hands down one of the best investments we made for our wedding. We had the best day of our lives and having Stacey and Ali there on the day meant we could enjoy our day to the absolute max! From our very first meeting, it was clear that Stacey was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about making our day exactly what we wanted. Not to mention that we got on like a house on fire! Stacey was on hand to help with our planning when needed, I booked in a power hour call about 9 months out from the wedding which was exactly what I needed to keep me on track with planning. We had our final details call around 2 weeks before the wedding and it was the best feeling to hand over all of our suppliers to Stacey at that point, knowing it was all in hand and she knew exactly how we envisioned our day running. On the day of the wedding, Stacey and Ali went above and beyond. They handled everything seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy our special day literally zero stress. Everything was considered and organised so well, from our quick-fire family photos to Stacey’s genius plan of doing a receiving line on the way out of the drinks reception to make sure our guests started to make their way to their seats on time. We received so many compliments from our guests about Stacey and Ali and how brilliant they were. The fact that we are still WhatsApp-ing 2 months after the wedding tells you all you need to know – Stacey genuinely cares about the couples she works with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stacey and her team, and if you are considering getting a wedding co-ordinator, just do it! Thank you for making our wedding day unforgettable! Mr & Mrs G

I was so happy to find a shop like this which supplied all wedding related decor and props! Jennifer was very easy to deal with and even managed to organise the delivery of the items the day before the wedding as it was much more convenient for us, so thank you for that! Will definitely recommend to friends in future!

What can I say about this company and Jennifer in particular that will do them justice. Nothing, but I will try! This is a company that will go above and beyond to make your special occasion great! Jennifer was professional, helpful and kind through all the planning and execution stages for my wedding on the 2nd of August. My guests were also very impressed with what they saw. I highly recommend this company!

Beyond Expectations provided decoration service for my wedding ceremony and reception dinner. I had a consultation with them where I explained my vision. This was captured to perfection on the day. Each detail from the centrepiece to table plan decor exceeded my expectations. Our guests gave us positive comments on how everything was set out. Overall Beyond Expectations provided a great service throughout the wedding planning stage and I would 100% recommend.

The best wedding decor ever! Jennifer and her team were so professional to work with, took my vision and made it a reality. I was speechless when i walked into my wedding reception. It was absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for contributing to my special day.
