Wedding Planning

We came across Zohrah by chance. We were just looking for a wedding planner for our small-sized wedding.
Since our first introductory meeting, we understood she was the one for us.
She is experienced, passionate and very respectful of our vision. She worked hard to ensure our day was perfect. And - yeah -it was perfect! Zohrah knows how to lead the pace of the organisation without any flaw, and with a constant eye to our needs.
Thank you Zohrah for everything you have done for us!

Wedding Planning

We had the pleasure of working with Zohrah for our December wedding and we couldn't be happier with the services she provided. From the moment we met Zohrah, we knew we were in good hands. She listened to our vision for the wedding and went above and beyond to bring it to life.

Zohrah was incredibly organized and detail-oriented, making sure every aspect of the wedding was planned to perfection. She had fantastic suggestions and guidance on how to make the vision for our day come to life. She was always available to answer our questions and address any concerns we had, even during the busy holiday season.

On the day of the wedding, Zohrah was a true lifesaver! She made sure everything ran smoothly and according to plan, freeing us to simply enjoy the day and make memories with our loved ones. Her professionalism and ability to problem-solve made a huge difference in ensuring that our day was perfect.

Zohrah also did an amazing job managing the vendors, making sure everything was set up on time and to our specifications. One vendor commented that Zohrah’s wedding pack was the best she had ever received as it was so detailed. At the reception venue, amongst the numerous things she managed, Zohrah meticulously arranged all the 150 wedding favors on the tables and lit countless candles (burning her fingers in the process!) to create the perfect ambiance for the room.

We cannot recommend Zohrah enough for anyone looking for a wedding coordinator. She went above and beyond to make sure our day was special and memorable, and we will be forever grateful for her hard work, dedication, and care.

Being open to suggestions is a valuable asset you both have, this really helped with all the planning prior to the wedding and ensuring that the day went smoothly.

Wedding Planning

24/7/21 - What an amazing day for us. Xx
5 stars all day long! 6 out of 5 if it was possible!
So way back in 2018 we decided to investigate into wedding planners to help for our big day in July 2020.
We thought we probably won't be able to afford it but when we looked it turned out that we could.
We searched on Bark, Left a message to contact us and left it at that.
The next day we got a call back from Zohrah to discuss a potential meet up.
A few days later Zohrah came to visit for a no obligation chat.
We all really hit it off there and then and we knew that despite being only our first search that we need search no more and we booked Zohrah.
Little did we know in 2018 that our July 2020 wedding was not going to happen (covid). This was a massively stressful time for us with family issues and also then having to cancel/reschedule basically everything.
Zohrah has done all the ground work for us the whole way through with regards to venue/suppliers and helped us move everything to 2021.
Now 3 years later we are finally married and to be honest if it was not for Zohrah being there for us emotionally as well as professionally we would have given up when covid struck.
Zohrah has become a great friend to us and was always there on the phone for many wedding meets or just moral support.
Zohrah has many contacts in the industry and has great negotiating skills with regards to suppliers. E.g Flowers, djs, videographers, photographers, violinist, printers (invites, table numbers) etc and her contacts are growing rapidly.
Zohrah is a very likeable honest person and if she thinks it's not a good idea she will let you know and what I mean by that is she is not a yes person. We had some great brainstorming sessions over the years and many meet ups and probably hundreds of calls/video meets. Nothing was ever too much trouble.
To finalise, There were three of us in this wedding and without Zohrah even if it did go ahead we would have really struggled, especially on the day itself.
Thank you Zohrah for everything we've really gained a great friend in all this. I hope we get to keep in touch forever more. Love to you and all the family too. Best wishes
Gary & Donnah. Xx

Thank you for a lovely review. I am so pleased we all made it through to your big day and it was an absolute pleasure to be an integral part of the long journey. I know it was a rollercoaster ride, but we all stayed on right through to the end. I firmly believe that the main reason why we all worked so well together is because of our flexible approach, being realistic and making key decisions in a timely manner. I have learned so much whilst planning your wedding and it has been a valuable experience both professionally and personally. I have really enjoyed working with you over the years and know that I have gained some fabulous friends. The fact that you took my advice on board and trusted me with such an important milestone in your life is and always will be appreciated. Thanks very much for giving me the opportunity to work on your special day

Wedding Planning

Wedding is a significant milestone in our lives, and it is important for us that it reflects us as a couple, our personality, what we like and love, from start to finish with every single detail laid out. My partner and I got engaged back in February 2020, and months after that who would have thought that a pandemic is about to happen. We are both working full time, and as much as we wanted to plan for our wedding ourselves, we are limited with knowledge, resources, ideas etc. Perhaps the first thing to think after the engagement is where/how to start in planning a wedding? It is important of course to have your own idea of how you envisioned your wedding to be, but it is also normal to get confused, lost, and clueless as it’s all part of it.
Planning a wedding is difficult but planning a wedding during a pandemic makes things even worsts. Not to mention that I am working on the frontline during the whole period of the pandemic as a Nurse. It frustrates us that it seems like we’re getting nowhere in our planning and at this point I knew that we needed a hand in all the planning, so I tried to search for a wedding planner in London online. Later in July 2020, I received a notification from Bark’s followed by a personal message from Zohrah after her seeing my request online. We had an introduction virtually and had a discussion on our plans for the wedding and how she could help us. At that moment, we knew that this is what we needed. We jumped into a full planning services that includes bespoke wedding planning designed to match our personality and style, sourcing of venue and suppliers, management of invites, wedding day on site management. Zohrah is such an amazing person, from day one until even after our wedding day her commitment and dedication are very consistent. She delivered a completely personalised planning service that matches our needs and within our budget, she gave us all level of support that we require even from the smallest thing. Her meticulous planning skills helped us to design and deliver the best wedding day we could ever asked for.
Fast forward to July 4, 2021, our wedding day has come, and everything is all in its perfect places. We had a fruitful year to prepare for this day but to tell you honestly, the road to the finish isn’t always a straightforward one. There are so many setbacks and uncertainties along the way, but we never felt alone on this journey, Zohrah made sure that we are well supported, and we truly appreciated all the efforts, she goes above and beyond what is expected. We are so happy to have Zohrah as our wedding planner, and if I may say choosing her to be our wedding planner is the best decision that we made. She is like a family to us now and we are looking forward to meeting her even on a regular basis (catching up over a cup of tea or coffee). Our wedding was absolutely the best day ever, it turned out more than what we expected. Our family and friends were stunned about everything on that day, and we are so glad to give them a once in a lifetime experience, a memory that they will surely bring with them wherever part of the world they are. From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to thank you again Zohrah. We hope nothing but the best to you forward. We hope that you continue to be a help to a lot of couples out there in helping them to make their dream wedding come true, and hopefully they get to enjoy and experience your amazing company the way we did.

Thank you so much for your kind words, I really appreciate the time and effort you have put into writing such a lovely review. I’m so happy that you trusted me with your special day! It was a pleasure to be such an integral part of the planning. You and Marco were and are a pleasure to work with. The fact that you guys were open to suggestions, took on board any advise and ideas I shared as well as working towards the deadlines as well as your flexible approach throughout the planning and on the day really helped myself and all the suppliers. The fact that you and Marco trusted myself and all suppliers with our expertise, experience and knowledge was the perfect recipe. This is exactly what we all needed in order to make everything run smoothly and as planned. Therefore, you both played a huge part in making the day a huge success. As for being a part of you wonderful family, the feeling is mutual. I will never forget the times that you were there for me in my hours of need. I certainly am looking forward to spending some quality time together without my wedding planning hat on even if we just go for a stroll in the park and stop off for a tea/coffee after. Thanks again for giving the opportunity in assisting you with planning and being a part of your special day. I will never forget it.

Wedding Planning

ADDING INTERIM SERVICES TO OUR PACKAGE.
So, the corona virus outbreaks across the whole world. We were feeling really hard done by having to postpone our wedding that we have spent years talking about/planning/saving.
Well someone was looking down on us when we chose Zohrah as our wedding planner which has been priceless and then now we find that we can just request the WEDDING POSTPONEMENT SERVICE and INVITATION MANAGEMENT SERVICE from our wedding planner. This really did take the strain off of us at this extremely stressful and emotional time.
So grateful that Zohrah has these services. As soon as we read what is involved with them we requested them immediately. Especially with new negotiations and also sending out the postponement and new save the dates. Comes in handy in case you miss anyone out.
Having Zohrah contact all the services we had and writing drafts of letters for rebooking things such as Notice of intent.
To be honest we would have been lost without these services.
Remember..... always pay for insurance right from the very beginning. Zohrah told us that also and made sure we did it (just in case) and now Zohrah is even helping us with our insurance claim which is also included in the Service.
You will not regret having Zohrah as your wedding planner I can assure you. The services provided are worth there weight in gold.
Thanks so much Zohrah. We look forward to continuing to have you along side us on our wedding journey that has now been extended another year. Best wishes Gaz and Donnah. Xx

Zohrah was amazing, really made my big day go smoothly. She was able to find me a make up artist (on short notice ) who did an excellent job. Can’t thank her enough for making it a wonderful day. Having a wedding planner as professional and attentive as Zohrah relieved all stress and allowed me to enjoy my wedding.
Highly recommend!

SO GLAD WE DECIDED TO LOOK FOR A WEDDING PLANNER.
One evening me and my mrs to be sat down and started to research as the whether it would be right for us to have a wedding planner and also if we could afford it giving the fact that we only have what i would call a medium budget. Well in short YES and YES. So glad we did. We found the Bark site and spent 5 minutes registering our interest on there which saves all the leg work of contacting individual planners. The next morning we had an email which gave us Zohrahs details and we decided to contact and arrange a free consultation. Zohrah came to our house a few days later and we all instantly hit it off and spent a good few hours getting to know each other and discussing our plans and ideas.
This was to be our very first and very last search for a wedding planner because Zohrah is now on our team. Not only has she already proved her worth but we have gained a very good friend, in fact two friends as we have also met Zohrahs husband when visiting their home (on our 2nd meet up).
Zohrah has been with us throughout the whole journey thus far. To all of our shortlisted venues and since then to all of our meetings to our final and chosen venue (even when not actually required).
Zohrah has arranged all of our meetings etc and helped so much with keeping us on schedule and budget. Honestly we would be lost without her as there seems to be so many things to do but just having a single point of contact makes life so much easier (especially when 1 of us suffers from anxiety and a few other things).
We are only part way through our planning and preparations as our wedding is not until 2020 but I can tell you this for all those that are not sure about having a planner .... ITS WORTH EVERY PENNY and our total budget remains the same as what it was before we decided to get a planner on board.
Thank you so much Zohrah for your efforts so far we have thoroughly enjoyed having you on our team and we are looking forward to our next meet up (even if it is just to catch up for no reason whatsoever over a cheeky beer or a cup of tea).
Oh and by the way our kids absolutely adore Zohrah she's great with them and that was so important to us. Zohrah has even sat and played games with them whilst we look around venues. I mean come on there are certain things that wedding planners really don't need to do but she still does and seems to really enjoy and embrace everything that she does for us. Also keeps us grounded when we have gone off on a tangent with our plans. So much needed. Worth every penny AND SOME! sign her up. Seriously.
I will update my review once we are married but I can tell you now the whole thing has changed from being hard work to an absolute blast.
Thank you so much Zohrah. x

First of all, I'd like to thank you for trusting me with planning your wedding with you. It is a pleasure to working with you.

I can't wait to see the fruits of our labour to pay off. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to plan one of the most significant events of your life. I can't wait for the wedding, Zohrah

Q&As

Meeting people various backgrounds who are confident in my skills and ability to assist them with planning, creating and sharing one of the most important milestones in their lives. I love providing couples with support throughout the process of planning their wedding and seeing their happiness when it all comes together.

I worked with my husband running our business in the gas industry. I wanted to start something new and challenging for myself. I felt that I wasn't fulfilling my own ambition and wanted to do something that I can utilise my skills and experience to my maximum potential.

I guarantee that I will not make all the decisions. However, I will provide you with the best options to deliver the vision and requirements within your budget, and I work very closely with you to ensure everything is perfectly in place for your big day.

Consultations, meetings and venue visits available over the telephone, Facetime, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

Offering remote services and adhering to government guidelines when meeting clients, venues & suppliers in person.

Services

This is the perfect solution if you have reached the stage in your wedding planning journey where you have done all the planning from booking your venue, all your suppliers and want to relax and enjoy your day. The Wedding Day Management Service isn’t just a case of me turning up on the day to oversee all you plans are in place. There is much more to the service.

Pre Wedding.

If you are struggling to source a particular supplier(s). I am happy to recommend suppliers for you to contact individually. However, if required I will source and negotiate contracts for you.

Four weeks prior to the wedding, we will have a meeting to create your wedding day schedule and two weeks prior to your wedding, we will have a second meeting to finalise your wedding day schedule.

Wedding Day.

Attendance on the day is naturally included to ensure that all your plans are in place and the day runs smoothly. The number of hours will be agreed during your initial consultation as all couples have different requirements and venues have different access/requirements.

The cost of the service is determined following your initial consultation and will depend on the type and style of wedding, venue location, guest numbers and its complexity.

The wedding day management service is made affordable with the option of a monthly instalment plan. Details are provided during your initial consultation.

The full planning service is the perfect solution if you want me to hold your hand and guide you every step of the way through your wedding planning journey. This service involves much more than sourcing a venue, your suppliers and attending on the day.

The service is designed for us to work together ensuring that you are confident in my ability to provide you with the best options that match your requirements and suit your budget. Therefore, it is important that we build a rapport and identify if we are happy to go ahead and work on planning your wedding together.
