Living in London but loving the New Forest, Erin and Krzysiek knew they wanted to hold their dream wedding in the beautiful location we are so lucky to live in.

After some serious googling, Erin came across Gins Barn which is situated on Beaulieu River. They instantly fell in love with this venue and quickly went ahead with booking it for their special day.

Erin and Krzysiek planned a complete D.I.Y wedding which was extremely stylish and absolutely stunning.

Planning an outdoor D.I.Y wedding means there are a lot of things to think about such as suppliers to source and book. It is also means there won’t be an on-site co-ordinator making sure all the behind the scenes jobs happen at the right time.

This is where we can help! 

When Erin contacted Tasha-Mae she was unsure whether or not she actually needed our help, but after much discussion Erin decided she wanted us to relieve any worries she was having.

We stepped in to reassure Erin and Krzysiek that everyone and everything would be in the right place at the right time ‘ON THE DAY’.

Their biggest concern was ensuring everyone got on the wedding bus at the church to bring them back to Gins Barn, along with managing the car parking at the venue for the guests who had driven.

With myself waiting at the church to make sure everyone got on the bus and Ellie waiting at Gins Barn to direct the guests when they arrived, this brought peace of mind to Erin and Krzysiek knowing they didn’t have to bother their friends and family for help.

We were also on hand during the wedding breakfast for any extra help needed by the caterers or their guests. When one of their friends stood on a bee our emergency boxes came in very handy, as we were able to offer some sting relief, which was greatly appreciated!

Later we greeted the evening guests and waited for the band so we could direct them with parking and show them where to set up. Being around to make sure suppliers know where they need to be takes away all of the pressure from the bride and groom and provides them with a stress-free wedding!

Despite Erin & Krzysiek living in London, we had regular email contact to run through everything and amend any changes that came up along the way. So, don’t worry if you don’t live locally Tasha-Mae will always find a way to help you with your wedding or event.

Erin and Krzysieks wedding was truly beautiful with the most picturesque and scenic wedding reception you could imagine.

They were blessed with glorious sunshine which made it all the more fabulous, a wedding we are very grateful to have been a part of…thank you Erin & Krzysiek.

Tasha-Mae wishes you the most wonderful and happy future together…huge ‘CONGRATULATIONS’ to you both!

Lots of Love

Your DIY wedding planning journey can be hard work with a lot to think about and organise. For that reason it is important you actually enjoy your day without having to worry about who will do what jobs and when. Here you can read about Georgia and Phil's big day at Tournerbury Woods on Hayling Island and find out just how valuable it was for them to have a wedding co-ordinator to ensure they had a stress free wedding day.

In my opinion a DIY wedding is the perfect type of wedding as you can put your stamp on it and make it your own. Natalie and Jake had planned the most stunning DIY wedding at Bake Barn in Wiltshire and needed help with co-ordination on the day. Taking my team we made sure their day ran smoothly and to their time-plan doing all the jobs that needed doing. This meant they could enjoy every minute of their day with their friends and family - stress free!

Planning a DIY wedding is always so much fun but on the day there are so many jobs that need doing. Bex and Graham planned a beautiful and relaxed wedding at Warborne Farm in Lymington, Hampshire where the Tasha Mae team were able to help ensure all the jobs were done and their day ran smoothly so they didn't need to worry about a thing!

Planning your own DIY wedding can be hard work but also so much fun. Emily and Dom planned their own tipi wedding at their family home in Wiltshire. Taking the Tasha Mae team along to help with on the day co-ordination, we made sure all their carefully thought out plans ran like clockwork and to their tailored time-plan.

You have to love a marquee wedding in a field overlooking the sea, which is exactly what Keely and Dan planned for their big day. The Tasha Mae team loved co-ordinating their special DIY day and despite the strong winds and rain we all had a fabulous time ensuring everything ran like clockwork.

Winter weddings can be just as beautiful as summer weddings and after co-ordinating Jake and Laura's big day in December, I can most certainly vouch for that! You don't need to think of a theme with a twinkling Christmas tree, roaring fire and mince pies as canapes, what more could you ask for? Not only that but you don't need to worry about the weather as you've already planned it for the winter so you know what to aim for!

The beauty of planning your own DIY wedding is you can do exactly as you wish and after co-ordinating Cassie and Oliver's, I have to say there is something to be said for having your wedding at home in your back garden. With a relaxed, almost zen vibe, Cassie and Oliver had the most beautiful chilled out wedding day in the comfort of their family home and garden.

Deciding on your wedding decor is the fun part but on the day you might need some help putting everything in place whilst you get ready to tie the knot. Rachel and Ben had planned a DIY marquee wedding and needed some help in the morning of their big day to make sure their venue looked pretty and just as they wanted before everyone arrived.

As an on the day wedding co-ordinator so many of the weddings I co-ordinate are in the summer, which means the majority of my imagery are of bright sunny weddings. For that reason, I thought it was about time I showed everyone that winter weddings can be just as beautiful and somewhat mystical!
