I confess, I was one of those brides who thought I didn’t need a wedding planner… but luck had it that Mel came into the picture when we decided Feathertop was where our marriage would begin. Our wedding would not have been the raging success it was without Mel!
The day was truly seamless, despite having so many intricate details and specific requests that I was particular about—and Mel made every single one happen. No matter what, she ensured everything we wanted came to life. Mel made the entire experience so enjoyable because she genuinely listened to us and followed through on exactly what we envisioned.
Without her, we wouldn’t have found the most caring and hardworking suppliers who made the day unforgettable. Mel went above and beyond, and honestly, we would not have been able to pull off the incredible event our wedding was without her. This isn’t just a job to Mel—it’s her passion, and it truly shows in every little thing she does.

“Perfection! Mel is the most organised and composed professional when it comes to planning Weddings.
From the minor details to the very important things. from the very beggining of the process to the day of, everything was so easy and stress free. Mel and her team brought our dream to life and we had the most amazing day ever that felt like a fairytale.
We could not have gotten to the day without her and the team. I would recommend Mel to everyone I know getting married.“

"How seamless it was to just go about our wedding. I would easily say to anyone to hire Mel and the team. I genuinely didn't have a worry about anything. From timings to styling. Mel put in a huge amount of effort in the lead in that I knew it was going to be perfect. I'm a control freak so handing over the reins is always hard but I didn't even think twice about it. She was absolutely incredible. I'm actually crying writing this with how grateful I am that I got to enjoy the day with Matt. I know things went wrong in the back ground and she always dealt with it without a worry to us.
The night before the Ceremony I decided I wanted a completely different bar, sure enough when I woke up on my wedding day a beautiful white bar was sitting in the garden. Mel just gets things done. She is everything and more. Please if you are reading this, I promise your day will be better because of Mel.
Our day was full of love, laughter and good times truly because of the coordination from Mel. Our day was like a dream, everything I pictured styled perfectly by Mel. Walking down the aisle I got to stare into Matt’s eyes and enjoy every second because NOTHING went wrong or wasn’t exactly how I dreamed."

"Mel thought of all the little details (things that I totally would have forgotten about without her!) and made sure everything went smoothly.
We trusted Mel and her team completely to bring our styling vision to life, take care of our vendors, and take care of any hiccups along the way, which meant we were able to be relaxed and have the time of our lives.
