They pair logistical expertise with design flair, giving couples the confidence to lean into ideas that truly reflect who they are.
I’ve seen them in action myself, most recently at a wedding in Norwich and earlier at a stunning celebration at a Bruisyard Hall Wedding , and in both cases the couples were absolutely over the moon with how the day felt, flowed and was experienced by everyone. Their reputation for thoughtful detail, warm support and joyful celebrations is very well earned.

Softley Events pride themselves on exceptional attention to detail — both the elements guests see and the behind-the-scenes logistics that ensure everything runs seamlessly. I’ve worked with Sarah at grand stately homes, such as Sennowe Park (where she is the in-house planner), as well as at relaxed back-garden marquee weddings she has recommended me for, such as this wedding near Norwich. No matter the venue, the service is always personal, polished and incredibly professional.
It’s no longer the case that wedding planners are only for the rich and famous. While costs vary, most UK planners charge around 10–15% of your total wedding budget for full planning services. If you’re getting married in Norfolk, Suffolk or further afield, these planners are well worth exploring.
