Sperry PapaCouple, Craig & Anya’s Dream Team
Having found our dream Sperry Tent through PapaKåta, it was now time to start lining up our other suppliers…
It was really useful searching through PapaKåta’s “Little Black Book” to look at potential suppliers. Given the large task of sorting so much, it helped us prioritise and get the ball rolling by speaking to various companies.
A key part of all weddings is the food and having sampled some amazing food at friend’s weddings we wanted to ensure our guests had a culinary delight on our special day. We looked at various sample menus and spoke to various caterers but in the end were won over by the menu options, recommendations and commitment to going the extra mile to provide our perfect bespoke menu that Taste Cuisine offered. Without saying too much to ruin the surprise of our wedding breakfast menu, it is fair to say that the tasting went down very well with not a crumb left!
Next we took on the role of Simon Cowell and the X-factor judges by spending many evenings running through sample tracks and You Tube clips of potential bands. Entertainment Nation provided a huge variety of bands covering every music genre imaginable and were very efficient at getting back to us with band availability, prices, and answering any questions we had. If booking live music, a tip for fellow wedding planners would be to get this one ticked off early as you’d be surprised at how quickly things get booked up.
Finally to ensure our Sperry Tent was dressed perfectly from pole to pole, we found the fantastic Wendy Rowley at Paperwhite Flowers courtesy of a friend’s recommendation. Wendy has been extremely helpful and is a huge Sperry fan herself, having had one for her daughter’s wedding herself. The fact that she knew the space and layout of the tent so well allowed her share her expertise and experience to help us get the most out of dressing the Sperry.
For our guests, the pictures here don’t give anything away – we’re keeping you guessing – but it’s going to be amazing!
