This is for the couples who want a considered, confident journey, led by someone who gets it.

From venue sourcing to the final toast, I’ll manage the details with precision and care, so you can stay focused on what really matters: feeling confident, present, and proud of the day you’re creating.

When choosing full wedding planning, you can expect:

Clarity from the start

You’ll never need to ask “what’s next?”. I’ll walk you through each step with a clear, tailored plan.

A calm collaborative voice you can trust

You won’t be passed between assistants. I’m in your corner from day one to the final dance.

Your vision, elevated

Whether you have a moodboard or a million tabs open, I’ll help define what matters and bring it to life, refined, intentional, and personal.

Expertise that protects your time (and budget)

From negotiating contracts to managing logistics, you’ll avoid costly oversights, long email chains, and supplier guesswork.

Emotional safety

I keep things moving without pressure, advocate for your preferences, and protect your peace, especially when family opinions or pressure starts creeping in.

why choose events by james —

My background in performance means I know how to shape a moment. My training in high-end hospitality means I sweat the small stuff. And my reputation? It’s built on trust, taste, and timelines that actually run on time.

I’m accredited at Old Sessions House, Pylewell Park, and The Charterhouse, and have been featured in Tatler for my approach to planning and design.

I'm not just here to plan events. I'm here to support you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I’ve already started planning?

No problem. I can review what’s been done, identify any gaps, and take over from there. You don’t need to start over.

Do I lose control of my wedding?

Not at all. This is your wedding, I’m here to make it easier, clearer, and more elevated. You always have the final say.

Is this only for big-budget weddings?

Not necessarily. Full Planning is about time, energy, and peace of mind. If you’re busy or overwhelmed, this might be the best investment you make.

What’s your role on the day itself?

I manage the timeline, lead the supplier team, troubleshoot in real time, and make sure everything flows smoothly, so you can stay focused on each moment.

How do you help define our vision?

Through a collaborative design process that explores your taste, priorities, and values. I won’t impose a style, I help you discover and refine your own.

Ready to make space for what matters?

You do not need to figure it all out on your own.
