Testimonials

A few kind words from some of the lovely couples we've worked with over the years.

Lizzy and Phil

Lizzy and Phil

"We decided to get married within a short timeframe and are not local to Northern Ireland. This meant that beyond some ideas of how we wanted the day to feel we had no specific contacts and not a lot of time to explore. This is where Claire excelled - she sent lots of options of possible vendors and ideas to incorporate into our day. Even when her usual contacts weren’t available she reassured us this was all in hand and was able to find other options that totally fit our vision. Claire was extremely organised and responsive in the lead up and kept everything on track/to time on the day so we could focus on enjoying every moment!"

"Definitely money well spent! Claire thought of absolutely everything - from stain removal wipes to taking my handbag and putting it at my seat during the ceremony! I felt absolutely calm and relaxed on the day because Claire and her assistant had everything under control. Our wedding had so many moving parts where things could have gone wrong, but Claire and her team made everything run flawlessly. Roger and I were blown away by her level of detail and professionalism. We felt supported through the whole process and were extremely impressed with her quick response time during planning stages. We can’t recommend The Wedding Company enough! "

"We honestly believe that Claire is a superhuman! No idea how she does what she does but she always does it perfectly  Though this is our first experience (and probably the last one) dealing with a wedding planner, Claire and The Wedding Company are without a shred of doubt the BEST events planners there is! Fantastic attention to detail and organisation, zlways available and so easy to communicate with. If you wanted the moon in a pint glass, Claire will try her best to make that happen and that’s how hard working she is! Our wedding wouldn’t have turned out as amazing as it did without Claire’s help and for that, we are eternally grateful!"

The entire day was just perfect, every last detail - you worked so hard to keep everything on track giving us the best day ever . We could not recommend you enough, you are ‘Wonder Woman’ at weddings - kept my nerves at bay and allowed everyone to relax, we very much appreciate everything you have done for us!"

"It's hard to put into words how grateful we are to Claire, for everything!! Claire was calm, highly efficient, fun and supportive; navigating with ease the challenges of Covid and two ceremonies on separate days. Her experience was invaluable, she helped us work out our options and always acted in our best interests; we simply couldn't have done it without her. Claire ensured the days were magical, lifting stress off us with a smile. I can't recommend The Wedding Company highly enough. Any couple would be lucky to work with Claire: she was truly our Fairy Godmother!"

“Oh Claire! 'Thank you' just doesn't seem to express how truly thankful I am for all you did to make our wedding day the best day ever! We were lucky that we chose the most amazing vendors, but your expertise in bringing everyone together made all the difference. Not sure how you managed that double rainbow - but THANKS! Thank you, thank you for tying the ribbon on a beautiful day and giving us a gift that will last a lifetime.”

Mary and Darrick

"Claire is absolutely the best. As Americans getting married in NI, we LITERALLY could not have done it without her. Weddings have so. many. moving. parts. and she was there to take care of them all with a fine tooth comb. As a matter of fact, we had zero things go awry during our wedding ... none! That's an incredible feat for anyone to accomplish given how complex weddings are to plan. I attribute this to her endless knowledge as well as her thoroughness in all facets of wedding planning. If we got married again, we'd hire her again. haha! Thanks again Claire ."

Linsey and Modo

"I could not have had the day I had without Claire.  I really gave her a lot of work right from the rehearsal and I can’t fault Claire.  From the moment I met her, I felt like I knew her for a long time and was so comfortable around her.  I am already a very organized person so some questioned the relevance of a coordinator on the day of the my wedding but Claire and Susanne proved them all wrong.  Every guest and even vendors said how great Claire and Susanne were.  I honestly cannot talk any more highly of you both.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!  Nothing was ever a problem and I’m not quite sure how I will continue on now without you!"

"Of all the things we got for our wedding, Claire was our absolute favourite and the best value! She and Susanne made the set up and the day infinitely calmer, smoother and more relaxed so we could just enjoy our time with our loved ones and know that everything was being handled. She was a delight to work with and relieved all the anxieties we had at every point. I recommend her to everyone!"

Erin and Arthur

"In the lead up to our wedding, Claire was a total lifesaver. We are based in the United States and flew 50+ guests over to NI to enjoy a week of wedding events. Claire managed my anxieties perfectly and was on top of literally everything. Her response times are UNRIVALED and she chased down all the bits and bobs that needed to be chased down. She managed the day perfectly and I didn't have to think about a single thing as she handled every little thing that came her way! It was the perfect day in large part to the hard work of Claire. We would highly recommend The Wedding Company  - worth every penny ."

"Claire was invaluable leading up to the wedding and on the day. She made herself available for any job no matter how small. Because Claire foresaw the running of events on the day, we were so relaxed and could enjoy the whole day with ease. We were very sad when she was finished as Claire felt like a friend after everything. I would highly recommend Claire and The Wedding Company to anyone looking for a stress free and fantastic wedding. Best money we ever spent!"

"We had the most amazing day. You did a great job keeping the day to military precision whilst being a beautiful and love filled day. You remembered all the little comments and made sure that they either did or didn’t happen. My mum really loved that you were always on hand yet not taking over. I think she thought I was mad getting a wedding planner but she is now a convert. Your contacts provided some wonderful touches - fabulous. A huge and massive thank you for making our day so special.”

“With us being in different continents and living in different time zones, it was a challenge for us to plan and coordinate our wedding in Belfast. Claire did a brilliant job in pulling our dreams and expectations together and taking the stress away from us. We would like to thank Claire for all her efforts and support in everything she did to make our wedding day a very special day.”

Anna and Josh

"Due to family illness we found ourselves planning a wedding in 7 weeks. We quickly realised we needed professional help, so rang Claire. It was obvious that Claire genuinely wanted to help and to make the mad timeline work. In less than a week, thanks to her incredible connections within the wedding industry, Claire had flowers, make-up, cake, photographers and décor organised. From that point, Claire became affectionately known as our Fairy Godmother. A mere 53 days later, she delivered a magical wedding, for 125 people, with no compromises. Our wedding was organised to perfection and delivered with complete professionalism. Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Bo! Claire is worth every penny, we simply couldn't have planned a wedding in 7 weeks without her. Claire - thank you, it was a pleasure from start to finish."

Lauren and Bryan

"Claire was absolutely amazing from the first time we ever spoke. We could never have had the fabulous wedding we did without her. She was wonderful to work with in every possible way. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I truly can not say enough good things about her. She was so responsive (even with our 5 hour time difference), no request was ever too much and she was always so pleasant and calm - from dealing with Covid related postponement issues to the actual day. She is truly one of the loveliest people I have ever met and worked with."

"I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Claire! I could not have made this happen without her. She was always honest and had open communication. I planned a wedding during Covid and Claire was very straightforward and honest when helping me make decisions along the way. She gave great referrals for every aspect of my wedding. I loved my venue, music, cake, flowers, photographer, everything! I could not have been more pleased how everything turned out! My wedding day felt like a dream and everything ran so smoothly. Thank you so much for everything, Claire. It was a pleasure working with you! "

"It was a pleasure working with Claire and The Wedding Company. From initial communication to Claire's Coordination of the day, it was simply amazing. The Wedding Company kept everything in check, were on top of any issues and took a huge weight off our shoulders! Thank you so much Claire - we would highly recommend your services."

Lexy and Rick

“From first getting in touch with Claire, she was so friendly and helpful on every aspect of our wedding.  I was so reassured from our first consultation that she had everything in hand and the day would run smoothly, and that proved to be the case!  Meghan and Claire were so lovely and calm and dealt with everything leaving me free to fully enjoy my day.  I would 100% recommend the wedding company to anyone looking a planning or coordination service.”

“We just could not have pulled it off without Claire. Wonderful professional service and so much peace of mind. If we ever doubted whether we needed the help of The Wedding Company beforehand, we are now sure that this is one of the few things we just couldn't have done without. Our day was perfect, and we were able to enjoy it without stress thanks to her tireless work. Thanks so much.”

“We hired Claire to manage our wedding day and we could not be happier that we did! If there were any problems we are not aware of them, as Claire took charge and was then point of contact for all of our vendors. She was brilliant with them - she respected their expertise and let them do what they do best, while ensuring we got exactly what we wanted. All of our family and friends have raved about what a flawless wedding we had which is due to Claire. Thank you for everything!"
