“I would highly recommend Lara and Hardwick Events. When my partner first suggested it, I was not overly convinced that we needed a wedding planner but on reflection I’m not sure what we would have done without Lara, and very grateful for all of her support leading into and at our wedding.
She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish, and effortlessly integrated with the wedding party which allowed her to be extremely effective in her role.
Lara has a warm and caring personality, she was proactive to take on any task, used her initiative, and did it all with a smile on her face. If you’re looking for a wedding planner, look no further!”
Lance Tredell (past Groom)
“When Fred and myself decided to plan a wedding in Edinburgh for 110 guests coming far and wide we didn’t quite appreciate the momentous task ahead of us. Luckily we did have the foresight to enlist Lara’s services.
With both of us in extremely busy jobs in London, Lara provided much needed direction, coordination and assistance. She guided us through the process, helping source suppliers as well as providing expertise on calls and meetings. She travelled to Edinburgh to be with us in advance of the wedding, attending final dress rehearsal and liaised with all suppliers.
On the day Lara prepped both venues, ensuring all the important details were delivered. Both our venues looked stunning and that was down to Lara’s eye for detail. At times when needed she problem solved and worked collaboratively with our vendors, all with her signature enthusiasm, passion and charm.
We sincerely mean it when we say we couldn’t have done this without her, nor would we have wanted to!”
Kirsten and Fred Barnes (past Bride & Groom)
“I met Lara completely by chance and thank goodness I did because I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her on our big day!
Lara was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. Her organisation and talent for picking up the smallest details made sure that the day ran smoothly, with no issue and felt completely magical.
Lara’s calm and positive attitude during what was a pretty hectic day was so reassuring and I received lots of feedback from the wedding party about how helpful and how lovely Lara was throughout!
Lara, you were an absolute dream and I can’t thank you enough for all the hard work you put in to making our big day exactly as we’d imagined! You’re amazing!”
Katherine Tredell (past Bride)
“Lara was great helping us with our wedding planning. It was so helpful to have someone to check in with, to keep us on track with timing and juggling all the organising.
Lara put together a tracker that we could both update, to keep us on schedule and had thought of everything!
She knew just the look and vibe we were going for so was really helpful when suggesting bands, venues and even bridesmaid dresses.”
Olivia McQuillan (past Bride)
“I had the pleasure of working with Lara at a Chelsea wedding. I can’t recommend her enough.
She constantly went above and beyond to make the day run smoothly and her communication skills are excellent.
Throughout the day various small things needed changing (as is usual with weddings) and she dealt with it with aplomb.
She’s great fun, a delight to be around and knows where the best coffee is. Highly recommend.”
