BLESSED When I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, BLESSED

When I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, I panicked and decided to put my business on hold. But it felt like I lost a part of my identity and having to say "I USED to be a wedding planner, but had to halt my business" felt horrid.  It was one more thing cancer had taken away from me. 

Little did I know that fate had other plans. Last month, I was approached by the most wonderful family searching for a planner for their daughters wedding next June. Having seen my last Instagram post, they've known about my diagnosis from the beginning. When I saw that they'd seen my post, I thought all was lost. You can only imagine the tears that receiving the following email from the brides mum caused:

"I was incredibly moved by your recent Instagram post. While I was saddened to read of your cancer diagnosis, I was equally inspired by your strength, grace, and commitment to continue doing what you love under such challenging circumstances. You are truly an inspiration, and I deeply admire your resilience and passion."

Once I got over being so blown away, conversations continued, and last week, I was overjoyed when they decided to proceed with me as their planner. 

I'm therefore delighted to announce that I'll be back at my very favourite venue @nhm_venuehire in June along with other venues for a rehearsal dinner, welcome party and post-wedding brunch.  It's going to be epic! 

With love

It’s with a heavy heart that I share something I It’s with a heavy heart that I share something I never thought I’d have to.

In January, while on a family holiday, I found a lump in my breast. Things spiralled quickly, and on 1st April, I was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. It has spread to my lymph nodes and lungs. It’s stage 4 and incurable.

The moment I heard the news, I went into full planner mode: researching, calling experts, chasing every lead. I’ve never accepted “no” for an answer and I won’t start now. That determination got me onto a clinical trial and after 8 weeks of chemo and immunotherapy, my first scan shows I’m responding really well. It’s not a cure, the aim is simply to slow the cancer and, so far, it’s working. I’ll take every win I can get.

The prognosis is incredibly tough. So tough, I can’t even bring myself to write it here. I’m sharing this so directly because well-meaning words like “you’ll beat this” or “you’ll come out stronger” are painful when they don’t reflect what lies ahead. But I will say this: Google and the stats don't know how stubborn I am so screw you stats!

Right now, my focus is where it matters most - my health, my family, and especially my husband and beautiful baby girl. That’s why I’ve made the incredibly difficult decision to pause new bookings. I hope, in time, to return to the industry in some way – maybe supporting other planners or taking on select projects. So please don’t delete my contact details just yet.

Since launching in 2016, building the business has been a joy. Balancing personal challenges, including 6 years of IVF and the blessings of pregnancy and motherhood, with professional ambitions meant the business didn’t always grow as fast as I’d hoped but everyone’s journey is different – comparison is the thief of joy is a message I want to give to all those building a business on their own (especially in the smoke and mirrors era of Instagram!). Looking back, I never imagined I’d win awards, plan the weddings I have, or become a recommended planner at iconic venues like the Natural History Museum. It’s a legacy I hope my daughter will be proud of.

Every couple has their own unique vision when it c Every couple has their own unique vision when it comes to florals - some adore wild, free-flowing arrangements that feel as if they've just been picked from a secret garden, while others, like Zoe and Dan, gravitate towards something a bit more refined and polished. For their elegant black-tie wedding, they chose beautiful, compact spheres of white hydrangea and peonies, creating a classic and sophisticated vibe. 

As a luxury wedding planner, it’s my job - alongside input from the couple - to discover which style best reflects their personality and vision. From there, I source the very best suppliers to bring that dream to life, ensuring every detail is nothing short of perfection.
