Its 8.33am the day after our wedding and I just had to come and say how thankful we are to Stella Virdi for absolutely everything!
From the beginning I knew she was the ‘one’, her response to our enquiry was heartfelt, friendly and made me feel instantly at ease… this continued through to the very end .
No job was too big or small. There was just 4 of us at our wedding, she helped me get ready and even watched the children whilst hubby and I had some amazing photos taken. Stella was able to give us a spectacular wedding… more than i could ever of dreamed of! thankyou so much Stella xxx

‘I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Stella Virdi who did such a fantastic job in organizing our wedding day.
She made it perfect without us even being there. (we arrived only one day before our wedding day). I could not have asked for a better wedding planner. Everything went smooth and exactly as we had planned. Stella was always helpful and supportive, starting from planning and preparation till the actual wedding day.
I would highly recommend Stella to anyone who is looking for a wedding planner to make this special day perfect and without any stress and worries. Thank you again Stella for making our day absolutely beautiful and unforgettable.’
Best Wishes
Anastasia and Sam

‘Congratulations to you both, may you always be in love and happy, wishing you the best of luck and much happiness in your future together’
I loved this small intimate wedding and as always, my pleasure to organise romantic weddings for couples eloping from all over the world and of many different nationalities. Many of which i organize in a matter of days. Anastasia is Russian and her new Husband Lebanese, they reside in the UAE, living and working in Dubai. Organizing such weddings and advising on documentations necessary to have a civil ceremony in Cyprus that is recognized in the country of residence my job. Best job in the world, always such a happy day!

Another year begins and i can wait to get started with my 2018 weddings. Last year was certainly a busy one; with some great weddings and couples. I was also involved with some filming for a tv show which will show on channel 4 this winter. As far as i know its going to be called ‘Hitched in the Sun’. its basically about wedding planners and what they do here to organise the wedding day. the couples are also involved as their weddings are filmed as are they. its a day time show so will be family friendly and i hope entertaining and good viewing. I must say i did pile on some kilos last year (all those wedding buffet), so i am a bit nervous of seeing myself on tv. On the back of how well the show is viewed and ratings, there may be a season 2, so I really hope I can get some on my brides and grooms that are marrying this year to get on board and have their weddings televised. Its all rather exciting and there is lots to look forward to this wedding season. Needless to say the diet has began and lots of new year resolutions started.
Looking back on some fabulous weddings last year. Thanks to all you wonderful couples that booked me to organise your big day. Its always an honor and I thank you for booking me.
Just a few of my awesome couples; wishing them all the best and a long happy marriage.
