At Elegante by Michelle J we regularly get asked for wedding coordination services, to which we all the time reply that this isn’t something we provide – not less than, not in the normal sense. Elegante Piccolo is our premium wedding coordination offering, designed with supplying you with the most effective possible wedding experience in mind. We simply cannot provide you with our greatest and the marriage you deserve with a classic, six-weeks-out, on-the-day delivery service, and infrequently find that couples similar to you might be imagining what they need but don’t really know of course.
These are a few of our Elegante Piccolo couples’ true stories, illustrating how this service can differ between weddings to fit your needs whilst all the time allowing us to have a watching transient in your plans throughout. You’ll see the way it goes above and beyond a classic ‘on the day’ service, which usually sees a marriage planner coming on board a number of weeks before your wedding date to select up where you left off, and fills necessary gaps that otherwise is probably not noticed.

S&J, Wedding Coordination Services at Trinity Buoy Wharf
We worked with S&J on their Trinity Buoy Wharf Jewish wedding for over 200 people, giving our Elegante Piccolo wedding coordination service. After first considering they may plan the entire wedding themselves, inside 5 minutes of our first on-site meeting they realised the worth of our service. They (naturally) had numerous questions and logistical queries about their space and timeline, which all needed to be explored months upfront of their wedding day. We helped them navigate through this process with loads of respiratory room – had this happened only a month or so out from their wedding, it can have been too late to repair a number of the problems and issues that were arising.
Around 2-3 months from their wedding day we had our second meeting included with Elegante Piccolo (more meetings can be found on request and charged accordingly), starting tremendous tuning S&J’s plans and course correcting a number of areas that were going astray.
On the marriage day itself we had a team of 4 experienced Elegante members on site, managing the big guest numbers and complicated logistics of the venue. The whole lot was managed effectively, and we were there to liaise with and direct suppliers, make sure the flow of the day and timeline, and to take care of everybody (bride, groom, families and guests) throughout.
Had we offered a classic wedding day coordination service and easily picked up S&J’s plans 6 weeks out from their wedding, it wouldn’t have been possible to make the crucial tweaks and adjustments to their timeline and flow that ultimately helped to make their vision possible and seamless. Their wedding involved difficult logistics and timings, and we helped to tug all of it together in order that they could have exactly what they wanted, which was a little bit different to the usual.
M&A, Wedding Coordination Services at Down Hall Hotel
In contrast to S&J’s Elegante Piccolo service, we begun working with M&A on their Essex wedding plans right from the start of their planning journey. This meant that we could also help them with recommending suppliers, which is an included a part of the service if booked in time. We brought on board wonderful suppliers to assist create the magic for M&A, using our network and relationships to source the most effective collaborative team for his or her wedding.
The important thing difference between selecting your personal suppliers and dealing with a team that we help to place together is within the collaboration. We frequently speak about it using an orchestra analogy, with us because the conductor helping everyone play from the identical music sheet to create beautiful harmonies in your wedding. Whenever you work with top suppliers with pre-existing relationships along with your wedding planner, they collaborate on a unique level and need to do their best for you, bringing your wedding right as much as that next level too.
Whichever point in your wedding planning journey you book us, that’s while you get access to us. You’ll be able to email us any time with quick questions along the way in which which we’ll all the time answer, being as helpful as we possibly might be. Our Elegante Piccolo wedding coordination service includes two meetings before handover, but should you’re feeling like you wish more it’s all the time possible so as to add them.
K&D, Wedding Coordination Services at Rosewood London
The marriage day coordination service we gave K&D at their London wedding was a little bit different once more. They’d all their suppliers booked before we got here on board, however the missing piece was knowing that that is only the start – you go on an entire journey with each of your suppliers, from booking until the purpose of knowing exactly what everyone will likely be doing for you, when and the way.
Elegante Piccolo helped them to navigate this, using the 2 meetings and consistent email contact to guide them through so most of the things they needed to do but hadn’t thought of. We set them off on the fitting path, letting them know what they needed to do, who with, and why. Simply booking your suppliers isn’t the top of it, and 4 weeks to go is simply too late to start all of the liaising and talking with them that’s crucial.
For instance, K&D had booked their caterer but were yet to decide on their menu or tableware. They’d booked their florist and wanted something very specific from them, but there have been complex logistics to get all of it done. In addition they weren’t sure who to seek advice from about production, and even what it really involved – which is all completely comprehensible, provided that that they had never planned a marriage before! We helped to facilitate all of this and more, filling the gaps of their understanding and acting as their wedding fairy god-team to provide life to their vision.
Wherever you might be at in your wedding planning journey, our Elegante Piccolo premium wedding day coordination service might help. We understand that full service wedding planning isn’t for everybody, and that is the completely satisfied medium we predict everyone deserves – expert eyes in your wedding plans to make sure the work you might be putting in yourself involves fruition in the way in which you might be imagining.
