Foodie Stylish Relaxed Colourful Winter South London Wedding

Wow, it's taken me a while to get around to blog about this wedding. Back from Feb and my last event at Brixton East - my spiritual event home. Such great memories from this gem of a venue. Sad to see it go, but pleased to finish on such a high! 

What a joy it was to work with Rachel & Jack! They trusted me to deliver their vision in full and helped them put their dream day together. Read their testimonial below which says it much better than me. Thanks to my brilliant team and suppliers working hard on the day xxx                                                                                                 

Hi Dita, just wanted to drop you a line to say a huge thank you for helping us transform our ideas into reality, and for your (not insignificant) part in creating the wedding we envisaged.
From the day we met you after falling in love with Brixton East, we both knew you were exactly who we needed on our team!!
You understood implicitly what we meant when we said we didn’t want our day to be too ‘weddingy’, and guided us through the potentially daunting world of a dry hire wedding with such expertise, that all notions of stress were taken away!
Whilst we maintained total creative control (something incredibly important to us as we wanted our wedding to reflect us) your partial planning service saved us from hours of googling and hassle, and resulted in you finding us the most incredible chef, who couldn’t have met our brief any better (literally the best food I’ve ever eaten and a view echoed by all our guests).
It also took away the need for us to organise the bar or staff (jobs we didn’t really want!!), and again resulted in the most professional, brilliant team looking after us on the day, with fab service from beginning to end.
You were always available, but never pushy (no mad wedding planner vibes here!!!), and having you around to co-ordinate deliveries and suppliers on both the prep day and the wedding day meant that everything flowed seamlessly and we honestly didn’t have to worry about a single thing except for getting married and enjoying ourselves (which we did immensely!!!) We literally couldn’t have created such a smooth running, relaxed, perfect wedding without you, so thanks a million!! Keep doing what you’re doing!

Lots of love,
Rachel and Jack xxxxxx

Airstream Pub-tastic Drag Queen Fun Brixton Wedding

What I love about weddings is the sense of FUN my couples have and bring to the day. And no one have more fun together and with their friends and family than Gem & Mike. These two are a not stop laughing duo ... and boy was their wedding back in Feb (before snowmageddon!) one of the best. It had it all! Beautiful venue, great tasting food and drink and a full on drag queen DJ. They are still talking about this one xx

"From day 1, Dita was amazing in helping us to plan and co-ordinate our wedding day. From our first meeting (when we suddenly realised we actually didn't know where to start with a dry hire venue!) and in the build up to the big day- she was a font of knowledge and  inspired ideas- helping us navigate all the intricacies required with a sense of calm, yet the perfect amount of excitement that comes with planning a wedding! The day itself was INCREDIBLE, and we still have people saying it's the best wedding they've ever been to. There is no way we could have pulled off the day we had without Dita's skill, planning and direction, and it really was the Best Day Ever........"

Stylish & Rustic Winter Warming Street food London Wedding

Winter Weddings are lovely! I'm SO excited to share this stunning winter warming wedding with you all. One of the last weddings for me in 2017 in my favourite London venue Brixton East 1871. Ash & Paul came to me at the end of the previous year and it's been such a joy to plan their dream wedding with them. 

The aim was to create a warm winter wonderful space with lots of nice tones. We added in dropdown antique filament bulbs on the ground floor and Worm London created the most beautiful green foliage for the tables and backdrop. For the tables, we came up with a rustic design of enamel plates, modern cutlery and glasses, together with mismatch vintage champagne saucers. Beautiful, rustic & informal. 

All the way through it was packed with fabulous design features from the table plan through to video installation of vintage/pop culture weddings.. ended in the best wedding hashtag ever! #TFFTI - can you guess it? Thank F*** For The Internet. A nod to A&P's meeting through online dating. It can happen! :)

The whole day was packed with personal touches too, lots of details like Ash's handmade pop art name cards, personalised quiz, whiskey & cigar den, polaroid guest book station & special attention to absent relatives.

Besides from event management, I designed and sourced the tablescape, looked after all light & sound production, organised part of the catering, provided all drinks throughout, ran the bar and provided the event team. 

Huge thanks to everyone involved in this epic last wedding of the year! Xx

"Hi Dita! It all feels like a bit of a dream, but the best dream ever! Thank you again so SO much for everything you did for us. It was such an incredible day - the best day of our lives - and a huge part of that was because of all your hard work. Thankyouthankyouthankyou. Really, thank you so much for everything, Dita. We couldn't have done it without you (seriously)! Lots of love, Ashley & Paul x"
