suppliers
Below is a collection of suppliers we have tried and tested for you… and we like them!
If you are looking for something specific or would like to know more about any of them, please send us an email as a supplier should be carefully matched to your needs and personalities.
If you are a business and would like to be featured on the list, please note that these are people I have met and worked with. I try to stick with that rule so I can recommend with confidence.
Please remember these top tips....
- It’s much easier for you and the supplier if you tell them not just what you would like, but also the budget you have for that element. Saves time and money!
- Let the supplier know where you found this recommendation as it helps local businesses know who is supporting them.
- Each supplier has a different personality so try and match this as well as the service/product to your plans as it will reflect on the atmosphere of the day in most cases.
- If you are unsure what to ask or whether you need a product/service at all, get in touch with us first and just ask the question. Here to help after all!
Insurance - This is a great idea if you have some expensive items or big chunks of money invested in suppliers. If you have little risk or costs involved, you might save some money here.

“Annabel was a pleasure to work with, she made sure that everything was thoroughly organised in a relaxed, effortless way enabling us to concentrate on doing what we strive to do, create a beautiful wedding film in an unobtrusive way, without bothering the bride and groom. Although I’m sure her job is very stressful and difficult she made it look easy which filled us with confidence and allowed us the rare pleasure of having some time to sit back and enjoy the wedding day we were capturing.”

“Annabel is wonderful. The calm in the centre of the storm. Every detail asked about was covered and dealt with politely and professionally. She delivered a fabulous wedding and her personal touches really didn’t go unnoticed. Thank you Annabel!”

“As a band who specialise in surprises, having someone like Annabel on hand when we arrive at a venue makes our job so much easier!! We can arrive without having to try and track down any of the bridal party, and we can be filled in straight away with how everything is going in terms of timings and the day plan. Annabel is incredibly calm and makes everyone (including us energy fuelled musicians) feel really relaxed about everything and we’ve never a been involved in a wedding with her that hasn’t ran incredibly smoothly. If you want a stress free day where all your troubles are taken care of, Annabel is the best thing you could pay for!”
