Did you know it's just as important to your wedding suppliers that your day goes without a hitch as it is to you?
We don't turn up on your wedding day just to do a job. We're fully invested. We care deeply about it, the atmosphere, the emotion, and about you loving every single detail. That's why we do what we do.
But there's something that allows suppliers to truly shine… and it all comes down to trust.
Trust is where the magic happens
When you trust your suppliers, you give them the freedom to do what they do best.
Creativity thrives in trust. Experience shows up when it's not being micromanaged. And beautiful, thoughtful details appear when professionals are allowed to make decisions with confidence.
When every tiny choice is controlled, it can limit what's possible. But when you trust your suppliers, and I mean really trust them, it opens the door to something truly special.
Less stress, more enjoyment
One of the biggest benefits of trusting your wedding suppliers is the pressure they take off you.
By handing over responsibility, you're not giving up control, you're choosing peace of mind. You're allowing experienced professionals to take care of the details, solve problems quietly behind the scenes, and bring your vision together in a cohesive, considered way.
It means you can enjoy the build-up to your wedding day rather than feel you need to oversee every decision.
And often, it comes with a lovely added bonus… A surprise or two on the day itself.
When you haven't planned every single detail, there's room for moments that feel genuinely special, thoughtful touches you didn't know were coming.
A real example: trusting the process
This is precisely why one of my couples last year chose to take a different approach.
Kathryn came to me with a clear sense of what she liked, her colour palette, and just as importantly, what she didn't like.
She'd had the same conversation with her florist. She shared her vision and allowed them the freedom to choose the seasonal flowers that reflected it. From there, everything flowed naturally.
The florist and I worked closely together; they shared their mood board with me, and kept me updated once the flowers were ordered, they also let me know about a slight change the week before the wedding, which is completely normal when working with seasonal blooms.
Because that trust was already in place, the change was seamless. The cake design evolved alongside the florals, and everything felt considered, intentional, and completely aligned.
That level of collaboration, built on the trust our couple placed in us, allowed us to create something wonderful for Kathryn and James. Nothing felt forced. Nothing felt overthought. It simply worked.

Choosing trust before you book.
Trust isn't something that magically appears on your wedding day, it starts before you book. This is why, when selecting your suppliers, you should ask yourself:
If something unexpected happens, do I feel confident they’ll handle it calmly and professionally?
Do I feel excited and relieved after speaking to them, rather than overwhelmed?
Would I feel comfortable saying, I trust you, do what you think works best? (these are the magic words every supplier wants to hear)
