"We hired Vanessa for her full wedding planning service and have been hugely impressed from start to finish with her professionalism, dedication, strong working relationships with suppliers and thorough knowledge of all the fine details of event and wedding planning. She went above and beyond the call of duty more times than we can remember, culminating in what was an epic, incredible two days."

"Working with Vanessa was a pleasure from start to finish & it really was great fun! I felt like she absolutely understood what we wanted for our wedding & she was there every step of the way helping us to achieve it. On our wedding day having Vanessa with us was a blessing & she kept us all calm & on track. I would highly recommend asking Vanessa to plan & run your wedding as it will be perfect."

"To anyone who reads this review, there are no words to describe what a life changing decision it was to ring Vanessa. That sounds overly dramatic but for most people your wedding day is a big deal & you remember it for the rest of your life. Imagine the day before your wedding having not a care in the world because you know it’s taken care of, I suffer anxiety & it was a dream Vanessa made real."

Emily & Greg

"The team kept me sane! We used R&F's wedding planning service; a truly priceless service. Up to the wedding day any small query was handled keeping us calm & none the wiser & any big decision was handled and we only had to make the simplest of decisions keeping us stress free; something so invaluable when you are getting married. The level of personal & professional service was exceptional!"

"We wanted to thank you and your team for your superb organisation before and during the wedding. Everything worked so well and we all had a brilliant time. Everyone said how smoothly the whole day went and what a great wedding it was. Claire and Anthony were so happy at the way everything came together."

"Utterly brilliant. From the first moment we met Vanessa, we knew we wanted her support for our wedding and at the outset she lit a much needed rocket under us to kick start the planning and booking. All along the planning process Vanessa’s advice and guidance was available, sensible and on point. Her double checking of each supplier booking was invaluable at sorting out any misunderstandings before the day to ensure our wedding went smoothly and without a hitch. Many of our guests said it was the best wedding that they have ever been to. The Rocks & Frocks team did all that they could to make all aspects dovetail together, quietly supporting and sorting in the background. Thank you and your team for being so astonishingly good in every way at, and in the run up to our wedding on Saturday. You and your team did all that you could to make all aspects dovetail together and we want to send our sincere and heartfelt thanks for your care, dedication and attention to every detail. Of all the fantastic suppliers for our wedding, Rocks & Frocks represented the best value, without your guidance and hard work, I doubt that the wedding would have been so successful and carry the magical quality that it did. Vanessa and her team are the real deal and we will remember all of your kindnesses in the years to come. Thank you so much."

"I only wish we could give more stars! It's almost impossible to articulate quite how incredible Vanessa and her wonderful team are. From the start, Vanessa showed her expertise, attention to detail, willingness to get anything done no matter how challenging and just how invested she is in your wedding day. No task was too big (and we had some big tasks) and she was on site through all the seasons to make sure everything would be perfect on the day. Vanessa has an incredible ability to juggle an almost impossible number of jobs, succeed at every one, think of things you didn't even know you needed all whilst being a complete joy to work with - a rare ability in any field. We had huge expectations of the day and I can honestly say it surpassed even ours. Seeing it all come together during the days leading up to it revealed how quite large a project it was going to be. It was remarkable to see how the other suppliers hold Vanessa in such high regard - they too would have done anything for her and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. It says a huge amount about R and F weddings that the whole process was a complete joy. When the day came it looked absolutely magical and we wouldn't have changed a thing. Dom also deserves a big mention - without his logistical input, calming influence and personality, the process just wouldn't have been the same. These two are the real deal, an absolute dream team and I genuinely cannot recommend them highly enough."

"We booked R and F weddings for the partial planning service. As soon as I met Vanessa and Dom I felt the wedding would be in really safe hands. The day was perfect! I was worried before R and F were on board that a wedding in the garden might appear “cobbled together”. What we had was so far from that. Vanessa quietly gets on with everything she does all your behind the scenes hard work, but also does so much more. She has so much experience and lots of ideas to help. Nothing is too much trouble. The Bride and Groom has an absolutely wonderful day - the one they had dreamed of, and pretty much exactly the vision the bride had for the day, and thanks to R and F weddings help, the most stress free event I’ve been involved in! Vanessa and team were totally calm and professional both during the week before and on the day from early morning until and right up until all the guests had left at about 1am! I can’t stop thinking about the day and looking at the wonderful photos. I’m not usually at all sentimental but it was truly wonderful! Thank you, Vanessa, Dom and Hannah so much! I would 100% recommend using them!"

"Our wedding went perfectly and I couldn't have done it without Vanessa, Dom and their team! Vanessa thought of every little detail and anticipated everything I needed. I didn't have to worry about anything and could just enjoy the day! We used the partial planning service to help coordinate once all the major decisions had been made. Vanessa picked up on the all the plans and managed to appreciate the intended feel of the day almost instantly. My only regret is not having R&F on board sooner!"

"Vanessa and Dom were such a lovely couple to work alongside and provided so much advice, support and fun for our wedding day that we really don't know how we would have managed without them (answer: we wouldn't!). We booked Vanessa after securing our very DIY wedding venue and hadn't even considered on the day management until we spoke with our photographers (Lina and Tom) who strongly advised booking someone. We were still unsure it was completely necessary at that point, but after meeting with Vanessa and Dom for an initial meeting we realised how much expertise they had and how much more fun it would make the wedding for us if were able to just switch off and enjoy the day. We were so grateful we booked them to handle all the suppliers, the timings of the day, the last minute queries - basically all the admin you think you can handle when it's 9 months out, but when it's 2 weeks out and you are stressed to the eyebrows, it is a godsend to be able to lean on someone as well connected and supremely organised as Vanessa. What was great about it was no matter what my question or last-minute panic, Vanessa had an answer for everything. I think when you are a bride you can get very caught up in worrying about every tiny detail but it was so reassuring to have Vanessa on hand who could say 'nah- not an issue' or 'yes, already sorted that' as it meant we could enjoy the run-up to wedding day as much as possible. On the wedding day, Vanessa, Dom and Hannah were super helpful and even constructed a bar to help us when we had no bar!! Dom was amazing handling the bar duties, which again helped us out! Vanessa was a complete maestro for the wedding day timings, everything ran like clockwork and she was amazing at getting our suppliers organised. They certainly went above and beyond what we were expecting, even staying later after the wedding finished to help us on site. We are so, so glad we booked R & F Weddings, it was absolutely money well-spent and we had such an amazing wedding that we truly don't think we could ever have achieved it without their assistance. Thank you so much! xxx"

"Vanessa and Dom are amazing! We hired them to co-ordinate our wedding day, but Vanessa did so much more. Vanessa took over all our contracts from around a month before the big day which meant we could just enjoy the excitement leading up to our wedding. From the moment we booked Vanessa she was on hand to answer all questions (no matter how stupid)!, we really did get so much more than an 'on the day co-ordinater'. Vanessa and Dom 'just handle it', no one knows when something doesn't go quite to plan and this means everyone just has an amazing day! They get stuck in and take on any challenge thrown at them (even if it means loosing some eye brows)! Just book them - it's that simple. "

"We found Vanessa and her team via google search and it was a bit daunting trying to plan a destination wedding in London and actually spoke with 2 other planners before speaking with Vanessa. Once we started chatting, i just knew she was the one for us! We got on like a house on fire and she just knew exactly what we wanted to do for our wedding and didnt try and feed us a cookie cutter version (which the other planners did). Whatever crazy weird requests we gave her, she managed to pull it off without a hitch and she always relayed the cost to us so we were left in the dark at any stage of the planning. Its all black and white when it came to prices, timeframe and whether or not things we possible. If she couldn't source everything, she would tell us straight away and always offered an alternative. For what she did compared to her fees, i would definately reccomend Vanessa and her team, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!"
