The Best Wedding And Event Planners in Swillington, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Wow! Our expectations were already high from our chats and the samples we had already seen with Alison beforehand - but wow, everything far exceeded beyond what we imagined! Sometimes it can be hard to put into words what you are envisioning, but Alison had fully grasped what we were looking for and executed it amazingly on the day. Every detail was absolutely spot on. Everything was positioned well, balanced, the colour scheme as perfect, and included personal touches that made it so special to us. The actual decor itself is also high quality - our guests couldn’t believe that the floral displays weren’t real! Alison is also really easy to get on with and work with, we would recommend highly for wedding decor!

Alison did an amazing job for our wedding reception - everything looked better than we could have imagined!! Right from the start Alison was so helpful, showing us around the show room and walking us through everything, and also ordering in different coloured flowers to match the theme! 100% recommend!!

We couldn't recommend Alison enough after our wedding at Thorpe Park Hotel last month - Alison was able to provide a twinkle curtain for our ceremony room (at fairly short notice!) and was absolutely amazing. The ceremony room just looked stunning with the twinkle curtain and we couldn't be happier! Thanks Alison!

Alison went above and beyond to dress our wedding venue. She is very creative and has a great eye for detail. Nothing is too much trouble and she far exceeded our expectations. Would highly recommend

OMG Kirsty is AMAZING! The entire process was super easy and stress free. Nothing was too much for her to change last minute and gave loads of ideas and insight. Venue for the wedding was made super beautiful and just as I wanted and made Our day super magical. Communication was faultless and such a lovely and approachable person. Everyone commented on how flawless things were. Cannot thank you enough! Mr & Mrs Batten

Kirsty was brilliant from start to finish. She really helped me decide what would look best at my wedding and was really thorough and professional throughout. She really helped ease my mind and stress as I knew everything was in good hands. Once dressed and styled, the venue looked incredible and she really brought my vision to life. I would 100% recommend Perfect Venue Dressing Yorkshire to anyone.

We came across Kirsty after the previous company we had hired to do our venue decor went into administration and without sounding to harsh I’m glad they did! Kirsty was brilliant! She spent time on going through what we had previously hired and what she could do. We then went to meet her at a wedding fayre and so glad we did. Although we had an idea of what we wanted we left Kirsty to deal with the finer points and she did not disappoint. Our room looked stunning. We were delighted with what she had done and we received many lovely comments from our guests and the hotel. Whether you know what you want or haven’t got a clue Kirsty will give you great ideas. I would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to do their venue decor. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Kirsty was absolutely amazing from the moment I contacted her to dressing our venue! I had an idea in mind of how I wanted the room to look and Kirsty knew exactly what I wanted to completely transformed our wedding venue room! It was absolutely stunning. Thankyou so much!! Xx

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

My husband and I got married in July 2024, and utilised Jess’ on the day wedding coordination package - but what her and her team give you is so so much more than that! We booked a venue which required lots of different suppliers (separate caterer, bar company, linen hire, port-a-loos etc….) and in the run up to it I said to my husband that I really wanted someone I could hand everything over to in advance so I could enjoy the run up and not be worrying about coordinating everything! Luckily, I’d met Jess at an event before we were even engaged and so she was the first person I went to for this help. And I am SO glad we did! She goes above and beyond for you to make sure your day is special and runs smoothly. I’ll never forget that I’d planned to tie the tags onto our favours the night before the wedding with my bridesmaids, only to turn up and for them to have already been done by Jess and her team without even needing to have asked. We had drinks “tokens” to hand out to our evening guests and I went to ask Jess for these in the evening to hand them out, again to find that they’d taken care of it already. They were one step ahead always on the little details, and knowing there was someone we could go to on the day if needed (rather than people coming to me or the wedding party) was truly invaluable. After our wedding I asked my partner what’s the one “non negotiable” you’d recommend to other couples planning a wedding like ours and we both agreed that it would be Jess and her team. I know my sister is also recommending her to friends who are getting married soon too as she was equally impressed by her! Thank you Jess and team for helping to make our day so perfect, we genuinely couldn’t have done it without you!

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.

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!

The best purchase of our wedding was hiring Sarah to help plan and organise everything the attention to detail was out of this world she thought of stuff I would never think of and helped me with my mental breakdowns before the big day honestly couldn’t have done this without her 100% reccomend for anyone planning a big event, thank you again to Sarah x

I am writing to express my utmost satisfaction and appreciation for the exceptional services provided by Sarah and her team at RSVP Weddings & Events Ltd. Working with Sarah was an absolute pleasure, and I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, attentiveness, and dedication. What truly set Sarah apart was her unwavering commitment to going above and beyond. She exceeded our expectations in every way possible. No request was too big or too small for her to handle, and she tackled each task with enthusiasm and expertise. Her proactive approach and ability to anticipate our needs were truly invaluable, making the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. I have no hesitation in recommending RSVP Weddings & Events Ltd, particularly Sarah and her team. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and exceptional service make them a top choice for event planning. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Sarah and her team, and I look forward to working with them again on future events.

My wife and I cannot praise RSVP weddings and events enough. Not only is Sarah professional and organised, but she also has a wonderful, calming influence when things get a little stressful. Thank you for going above and beyond in your dealings with us :)

RSVP Weddings and Events arranged our 20 year anniversary vow renewal recently and it was first class. From the first meeting, Sarah from RSVP was attentive, creative, enthusiastic and friendly. She really ‘got’ my brief and brought it to life in spectacular fashion. Sarah’s attention to detail is spot on and her ideas and suggestions made throughout the planning process made our event so special. On the day of the event, Sarah was at our venue from very early morning ensuring that everything was set up perfectly. Sarah remained at the venue for the whole event, making sure it all ran according to plan. We literally didn’t have to think of anything other than enjoying ourselves. We had so many comments from our guests about how wonderful the event was. The day after the event, RSVP collected all of our things from the venue and brought them back to our house. Wonderful service. I would recommend 100%. A great company, with fantastic values and who really care about your event. Thank you so much, the day definitely wouldn’t have been so special without you. 😁😁

I would highly recommend Sam and her team! She knew exactly what I wanted and executed it to perfection. My guests were wowed and blown away with the overall look. Her communication was brilliant from the start and I cannot thank Glamourpuss Weddings enough. My special day was just perfect and one of the reasons is thanks to Sam and team. Thank you

Glamourpuss provided the decorations for our wedding at Wood Lane Countryside Centre last week. Sam was always quick at replying to my messages before the wedding. Sam and team were super efficient to set up and clear everything away. They set everything up as we'd asked plus made a couple of adjustments that we just wouldn't have thought of (like putting an uplight either side of the moongate). Thank you so much for helping to make the wedding so beautiful.

An absolutely fantastic little company who pay so much attention to detail through a friendly and professional manner! A dream wedding turned into a reality. We absolutely loved what you did for us!!! Thank you!! Kathryn and Craig.

Sam and the team were wonderful from start to finish and did a great job at brining my vision to life, nothing was too much for them. The quality of the materials and equipment was outstanding and our guests commented and how wonderful it looked we highly recommend

I have been using this service for over 15 years for my sister's birthday every year. I send all my thoughts and colour schemes and Karolyn and the team come up with different unique and brilliant ideas every year to give the event the "wow" factor. I'm so grateful for all the hard work that's put into making my sister's birthday special every year. Thank you so very much again and as always. Best Wishes. Bobby

Karolyn was great. She turned around bespoke printing alongside full set up for a corporate event in a very short amount of time and over a bank holiday weekend!. The balloons looked great and very impactful branding. Very easy to deal with in terms of communication, proofs and payment. Will be asking to support on future events and highly recommend. Thanks again :)

Thank you to Kaz and her team for another fabulous display. I would highly recommend Team Cherry Events to anyone who wants something that bit different and extra special for the occasion.

Team Cherry Events are absolutely amazing. They are a very professional and friendly team who go that extra mile to make your event perfect. They have done many events for me and their work has the special wow factor. Their ballon displays are on a different level to anyone else and they can do what others can’t. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you to Kaz and her team for always making our events special. The Davidson Family xxx

Absolutely amazing! Thank you again 🤍🤍🤍 great communication and very professional 🌸🌸

Amazing! We would not have been able to have the wedding we wanted without vow and wow xx

We hired Vow and Wow for our wedding and were absolutely delighted with their service. The team's attention to detail and creativity transformed our vision into a breathtaking reality. They were professional, responsive, and made the entire planning process stress-free. On the wedding day, everything was set up flawlessly and exceeded our expectations. We received countless compliments from our guests about the stunning décor. We highly recommend Vow a d Wow for their exceptional work and dedication. Thank you for making our day magical!

Howsham hall is truly the most exceptional venue for the biggest day of your life. Guests will be in awe of the building from their first sight coming down the driveway. It’s an image which certainly stuck in the minds of my wife and I and one we could never get out when selecting a venue, so it became the immediate choice. Howsham lived up to all the dreams of the day and it couldn’t have gone any better right from the start. That is down a huge part to all the staff on the day who worked tirelessly to ensure all the guests we looked after to the highest of standards and especially my wife and me. All the dine staff on the day were a true credit to their hospitality industry. The grounds are immaculate presenting a stunning backdrop for the whole occasion, and wonderful external picture locations. The whole interior has been carefully designed to bring out the detail of the historic building, one which you don't have (or want) to add too much decor to, as not to spoil the historic detail. Again, this interior design is a perfect backdrop for incredible images of your day. The bridal suite is second to none we had ever seen on our primary research. The room is a perfect setting for the bride and her bridal party to prepare and settle into the day, the windows again creating a perfect picture spot to show off the bride in their best light. The evening space has been revamped and has a perfect balance between space and in keeping with the traditional style of the hall. Plenty of seating and dancing space alongside a well-stocked and manned bar - what more do you need for your evening party? Evening food service is a great option instead of a buffet as it allows guests to relax and not clutter up the space. The Food throughout the whole day was amazing too, the Dine chefs create dishes tasting fantastic and the presentation is equally as matched. The venue is an absolute must visit and when you go you are truly going to struggle to find something which will eclipse this idyllically located venue. The whole planning process was so straightforward, and you are assisted throughout with expert assistance (something you will continue to receive on the wedding day) and a personal thankyou to Craig for this as he helped make the day as special and memorable as it was!

Had our beautiful wedding at Howsham Hall a month ago and it was the most beautiful day we could ever dream of. The Dine Team was perfect from start to finish. We met Becky when we first visited Howsham Hall in March 2023, we had a tour of Howsham Hall and was blown away by the elegant and well thought out spaces, the MASSIVE bridal suite and the menu choices. What really sold the place for us was the fact that each main part of the day had a separate part of the hall for it meaning we aren't ushered around while hall spaces are being turned over to be used again for another part of the day. After booking we were then passed on to our coordinator and we had wonderful Jenny overlooking the planning of our wedding day. It was a pleasure to have her coordinating, everything was taken care of with attention to detail. We had meetings throughout the months of planning, notes were taken and followed to the tiniest detail. She checked on us throughout the wedding day to make sure everything was okay and we had everything we needed and we felt so looked after! And finally we had Tim taking care of us and our guests on the day of our wedding and morning after. He was so nice and such a calming presence to the day. Nothing was too much trouble and we were so well taken care of. Before our wedding day I would always hear people say - "wedding days never go according to plan and if it doesn't, nobody would notice" but in all honesty everything about our wedding went according to plan and this is thanks to the Dine team. Last but not least, the food was AMAZING and we kept getting compliments on how lovely the venue is and how great the food is! Thank you Jenny, Tim, and the Dine Team for a beautiful wedding day and memories to last a lifetime. - Mr and Mrs. Wong

We had Dine for our wedding at Sefton Park Palm House on Easter Saturday and they were flawless!! In the lead up to the wedding, Jen had been amazing on emails and zoom calls - always responding promptly to any questions/worries and making sure we were well informed on every little detail of how the day would run. She was a fabulous contact to have and we felt at ease that she could do events like the back of her hand and nothing was too much trouble for her! All of staff on the day were professional, attentive and friendly and we felt like we couldn't have had better! Now the food...wow! We went for the barbecue menu as we wanted a more relaxed vibe and for people to have as much or as little as they wanted. It was unrealllll and we had so many positive comments from our guests about how delicious the food was! Some even went back for thirds! There was a great selection for everyone and they accommodated any dietary requirements with ease. Thank you soooooo much to Jen and the team - you were a massive part of the best day of our lives and we're very grateful, Becca & Stefan X

I cannot express how amazing this venue is and how utterly perfect the Dine team are. From start to finish, everything is organised and executed to the utmost perfection. Craig looked after us from the moment we booked all the way through to after our big day. He was fantastic. He directed everyone on the day itself and put our minds totally at ease. The team were so professional and lovely. They made us feel very well looked after as well as all of our guests. Every one of our guests commented that our wedding was the best they had ever been to and for this we thank all of the team at Dine. Howsham Hall is a beautiful little hidden gem. Our guests were completely stunned with each and every aspect of it. There was not a single room which disappointed. Having full use of the venue the night before the wedding was also wonderful. We cannot wait to return for an afternoon tea or to stay again in the future. I honestly, from the bottom of my heart, cannot thank the team at Dine enough for making our day truly perfect. The most beautiful place, the most wonderful team, and the most incredible service. Thank you.

I’d recommend Alison to anyone. She is an absolute pleasure to deal with and very helpful. I’d ordered some helium filled balloons for my daughters 18th Birthday from another shop - But when I went to collect I was informed “we are so sorry but we’ve no helium left. But then Alison came to the rescue with better balloons and much better service and at such short notice. Thank you Alison you’ve saved the day 👍🏼👍🏼

Alison provided the balloons for my first daughter’s christening in 2018. When my second daughter was born a few months ago, I didn’t hesitate to go back to Alison for her christening balloons. The balloons are absolutely stunning. Alison is so helpful and friendly and provided exactly what I asked for. I will definitely be coming back to her. Thank you!

Outstanding company in every aspect. From the amazing woman behind it all, Alison and to everyone else that helps the business run as smooth as possible. Alison is such a wonderful person, always happy to help and gives a great price. She is so talented at what she does with balloons and decor and I would recommend her to anyone. She even came in on her wedding day to set up some balloon arches for me!! So much dedication! I work at Wakefield Audi and she has done outstanding showroom balloon displays for us over the years. Thank you ever so much.

Alison is an absolute pleasure to work with. Her extensive experience in the industry meant I was put at complete ease in knowing the showroom displays (which were co-ordinated to suit different sized sites and my budget) would look great and really lift the space for the events we were running across the four Stratstone Mercedes-Benz sites in West Yorkshire. I look forward to working with you again. Highly recommend.

Hired Matt for my 40th birthday party. And he was amazing from organising beforehand and on the day. People were all talking about his magic the next day and what he did was just phenomenal. I would totally recommend him and would definitely book him again. Thanks Matt!

Matt was super engaging and supportive around the booking even accommodating last minute changes due to numbers of guests being unable to attend at the last minute, offering suggestions to gain the most of his talents. He put on a great show, keeping kids and adults entertained and baffled by his tricks and the feedback from all guests were complimentary with a number considering him for their next party. Thanks Matt

Matt is perfect! He's performed at three of our birthday parties over the past 10 years and I wouldn't hesitate to book him again. His professional, helpful and friendly personality is coupled with amazing magic and entertainment, tailored to both children and adults as appropriate. Would definitely recommend!

We had Matt for our little boy first birthday. Matt was very brilliant .. got the kids very involved and engaged!! Both adults and kids enjoyed the show. Our little boy had an amazing day 😊. He was very accommodating as well. We highly recommend and would definately book again in the future!!
