Modern Wedding Planning — London & Beyond

This isn’t about creating a wedding that looks impressive. It’s about creating one that feels right — to you.

Most couples who come to me already have a strong sense of taste. You know what you don’t want. You care about atmosphere, detail, and how the day will be experienced — not just how it photographs.

 

What’s often missing at this stage isn’t inspiration. It’s orientation.

Weddings are unfamiliar territory. There are too many opinions, too many expectations, and a quiet pressure to get everything right. Even confident, design-led couples can quickly feel overwhelmed.

 

My role is not to impose a style or replicate a formula. It’s to hold the process, reduce noise, and translate your instincts into a wedding that feels intentional, personal, and calmly executed.

The result isn’t a ‘cookie-cutter’ wedding — but it’s also not chaos disguised as creativity.

 

It’s a wedding that reflects who you are, without you having to manage every decision or carry the weight of getting it wrong.

 

This is modern wedding planning: design-led, structured, and quietly confident.

HOW WE PLAN YOUR WEDDING

This process isn’t designed to impress. It’s designed to make things feel manageable.

​

From the outset, my role is to take responsibility for the moving parts so you don’t have to carry them all at once.

Rather than handing you a checklist or expecting you to lead the way, I guide the process step by step — always with context, timing, and intention.

​

Here’s what that actually looks like:

  • Clear leadership
    I take the reins on structure, sequencing, and supplier management, so decisions happen in the right order — not all at once.

  • Quiet oversight
    Behind the scenes, I manage briefings, contracts, timelines, and logistics, keeping everything aligned and moving forward calmly.

  • Considered decision-making
    You’re brought into decisions when they matter most, with clarity around impact, cost, and options — never without guidance.

  • One central point of control
    All supplier contracts and key information are reviewed, organised, and held within your private planning portal, so nothing feels scattered or at risk.

 

The amount of time involved varies depending on the level of support, but what matters more than hours is containment — knowing that nothing is being missed, and nothing rests solely on you.

 

Throughout the process, you can expect calm communication, steady momentum, and a sense that someone experienced is quietly ahead of things.

This is not about doing more. It’s about doing things in the right order, with the right support, so the planning never becomes the point.

Full Service Wedding Planning

The entire process held, from first conversation to the wedding day.

This level of support is for couples who want complete peace of mind — not by handing over control, but by knowing the process is being led with experience and intention.

​

I take responsibility for the structure, sequencing, supplier management, budgets, design translation, and on-the-day delivery. Nothing is left floating, and nothing relies on you keeping track.

​

You’re involved where your input matters — creatively and personally — but never expected to manage the process or anticipate what comes next.

​

The result is a wedding that feels considered, personal, and calm to arrive at.

Structure and leadership when things start to feel unstable.

Partial Planning is for couples who have made a good start, but are beginning to feel the weight of coordination, sequencing, or uncertainty.

​

You may already have a venue and suppliers in place — but that doesn’t mean the process feels settled.

I step in to re-orient what’s been done, sense-check key decisions, and take responsibility for what comes next. Gaps are identified quietly. Loose ends are resolved. The planning begins to feel coherent again.

​

This isn’t about undoing your work or starting over.
It’s about stabilising the process so you can move forward with confidence.

Design & Styling

Visual clarity, without adding complexity.

This service is for couples who have the logistics in hand, but want confidence in how everything comes together visually and experientially.

​

You may already have ideas, references, or strong preferences — but translating those into a cohesive, executable design is where things can start to feel uncertain.

​

I work with you to establish a clear visual framework, edit rather than add, and ensure design decisions align with both budget and logistics. On the day, that framework is executed calmly and intentionally.

​

This isn’t about creating something ‘iconic’ for its own sake.
It’s about cohesion, restraint, and confidence — so the wedding feels considered rather than styled.

Delivery, not decision-making.

This service is for couples whose plans are in place, but who don’t want to be responsible for running the day itself.

​

In the weeks leading up to the wedding, I step in to understand the full picture — timelines, suppliers, logistics, and points of pressure. On the day, I take control of delivery, coordination, and problem-solving quietly in the background.

 

You are not answering questions.
You are not managing people.
You are not thinking about what happens next.

 

This isn’t about being ‘present’ in a sentimental sense.
It’s about removing responsibility so the day unfolds as planned.

OUR UNIQUE APPROACH TO WEDDING PLANNING

I specialise in modern, design-led weddings — but the real distinction is not style.
It’s how the process is held.

 

Every client arrives at a different point. Some are just beginning. Others are already partway through. What matters is not how much you’ve done, but how supported you feel doing it.

 

My approach combines clear design leadership with practical, logistical control. Ideas are shaped within structure. Creativity is grounded in reality. Decisions are made with context, not pressure.

 

Whether you’re planning a single day or a multi-day celebration, the process remains the same: calm, considered, and intentional. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is left loose. Nothing relies on you holding it all together.

 

The goal is not a wedding that tries to impress.
It’s one that feels coherent, personal, and quietly confident — because it’s been led well from the start.

KIND WORDS

"ZUZA WAS INCREDIBLE TO WORK WITH! 

 

From our first meeting, she seemed to know what we wanted for our wedding before we knew for ourselves.

We loved every detail of her design - seeing it come to life was stunning.
 
Her network of suppliers meant we were in touch with talented and lovely people that we could trust with making a memorable day for us, our family, and friends."
