We were looked after by Lester in every sense, and
I will always remember how beautiful our wedding day was, and how this was mainly down to Lester’s infectious personality, hard work and attention to detail! Throughout the wedding planning process Lester coped very well with our last minute decision making and the innate lack of planning on the part of Nick and I! Lester advised us and created a team of trusted suppliers, who came together beautifully on the day. We were looked after by Lester in every sense, and did not have to worry at all on the day as we knew Lester would have everything in hand! We could never thank Lester enough for the beautiful wedding he created for us and the wonderful memories both ourselves and our families will cherish. Rebekah & Nick Watson. LONDON

Lester you were truly a fantastic wedding planner
Lester you were truly a fantastic wedding planner for our wedding weekender. The three days wouldn't have worked if you hadn't been there making sure everything was absolutely perfect and running like clockwork. Our family and friends had the most wonderful time, and every single person mentioned how incredible you were, to the point where guests were actually chanting your name at dinner! Which was absolutely deserved. We hope you felt appreciated by everyone at our wedding, and not just Michael and I. A thank you isn't really enough for making the most special weekend of our lives totally perfect, but here it is anyway - Thank you! Heres to making many more perfect wedding weekenders for many more Brides and Grooms Lucy & Michael London

Choosing Lester was certainly one of the very best
Organizing our wedding in England from over 5,000 miles away in Texas was always going to be a big challenge. Choosing Lester was certainly one of the very best decisions we made. Lester possesses a highly enthusiastic and extremely professional approach and his innovation and perfect eye for style and detail transformed our vision into those fine wedding day details that our guests are still talking about today. From the very first consultation, Lester became our mainstay in getting things done. He certainly more than exceeded our high expectations providing a caring, highly personal service that really demonstrated the extent to which he was prepared to go to give us the perfect occasion, which we will remember for the rest of our lives. We cannot recommend Lester highly enough. We’re forever grateful to Lester for the incredible job he did for us”! Robyn & Billy. Texas USA

Frequently Asked Questions

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Elegant, Sophisticated, Stylish, Dramatic, Opulent.

What about your business are you most proud of?

I've had my own company now for 15 years, and in an ever changing industry, I'm very proud of its longevity. When clients trust me to coordinate one of the most important days in their lives, it's the greatest compliment. Knowing they've made the right decision in hiring me gives them a sense of confidence. Each wedding should stand apart as a true reflection of a couple's identity. I take pride that you can see in my body of work that each wedding is completely individual to the couple I work with. Trust!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Be realistic with your budget!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I begin with a consultation, either by 'phone or face to face. The consultation is designed to gather as much information as possible about the wedding and the clients, and whether we're suited to working together. The planning process can be a long one, so it's vital that you feel I'm the right person for you. It's my job to understand your vision, have your best interests at heart to create the wedding you want.

How do you ensure a stress-free wedding?

For me, having a great team of wedding suppliers is key to ensuring a stress free wedding. Planning of course is paramount, ensuring that every eventuality is thought out and planned for. My timelines/running orders have been described as "War & Peace" because they're so long! Communication is everything!

What do you love most about your job?

Hire professionals and get recommendations! Suppliers/vendors that have longevity and have a proven track record of producing great work is priceless. Good suppliers should be able to offer you details of past clients that you can approach to ask for a testimonial.

What is your favourite moment at a wedding?

I love to see the bride's shoes! Shoe moment!
