Partial Wedding Planning
Supportive wedding planning across London, Essex and the Home Counties
With most of your suppliers already secured, you may feel you need some extra support to get everything planned and over the finish line. You know what your wedding should look and feel like. You just don’t have the time, headspace or bandwidth to pull all the final details together.
Partial planning gives you professional support exactly where you need it so everything stays calm, organised and on track.
If you feel that you need more support from the very beginning, you may prefer our full wedding planning service.
What partial planning includes
I’ll start by reviewing everything you already have in place, highlight anything that may be missing, and helping to source and manage whatever is needed to complete your plans. Together we’ll create a bespoke partial planning service that fits exactly where you need support
Here’s what’s included in your partial planning support
• Planning meeting to review everything so far
• Venue visit
• Contract review and advice
• Supplier sourcing and negotiation (where needed)
• Final supplier confirmation and communication
• Development of a detailed timeline
• Wedding day management (up to 12 hours)
This service is designed to take the pressure off while keeping you fully involved in the decisions that matter.
Investment
Partial planning starts at a minimum investment of £2,997.
Every wedding is different, so we’ll tailor the level of support based on what you already have in place and what still needs organising.
How partial planning works
• We create a plan based on your needs
• We help secure any remaining suppliers
• We schedule regular planning Zoom meetings to keep everything moving
• We build your wedding timeline so the day flows beautifully
• We will confirm every supplier booking and give them the final timeline and logistics
• We act as the main point of contact for your day
• We hold a final meeting no later than 14 days before your wedding so you can confidently hand everything over
If you are mostly comfortable with your plans and only need support on the actual day itself, take a look at our on-the-day coordination service.

FAQ's
Is partial planning the same as full planning?
No. With partial planning, you’ve already booked some suppliers and have a general plan. I step in to organise, refine and complete everything with you. If you are unsure whether partial planning or full planning is right for you, I'm happy to talk it through and recommend the most suitable option.
Does partial planning include on-the-day coordination?
Yes. On-the-day management is included with partial planning, with up to 12 hours of support on your wedding day.
When should we book partial planning?
Ideally once you’ve booked your venue and your initial key suppliers, but before things feel too overwhelming.
