I am finally allowed to share a few photos with you all from Lula Mai Events – The Big Day and Lula Mai Events. It was such an amazing day and I am honoured and delighted to be able to plan it all for such a wonderful and deserving couple. I wish them all the best for the future. Photos by Darren Bedding Photography and Shot by Nick. I would also like to share a testimonial I recently received from Emma and Ross:-
“Christina was our wedding planner for our ceremony in April 2015. She was an absolute pleasure to work with: professional, friendly and gave just enough of the right opinion when it mattered! We trusted her with our big day and it was totally worth it. Having a wedding planner took all of the hassle of the wedding off our minds and let us really enjoy even the run-up to it without feeling stressed. No detail was too small, and she thought of a lot of small things that we would have otherwise missed. If anyone asked whether we’d recommend her the answer would be a big yes. Thanks again so much for everything you did for us. xx”
Happy Valentines Day to all and congratulations to anyone that has got engaged today! Once you have calmed down from all the excitement check out my Pinterest board for some inspiration. We are available for any planning assistance you may need for your wedding. To arrange a consultation please contact us on 07792812470 or e-mail christina@chantilly-rose.co.uk
My first post of 2015! I can’t believe I have only just got round to writing this and we are almost in February already!!
So much has happened it’s unreal. I don’t know where to start there is that much! My website is coming along nicely but there is still a lot of content to write. Click on the link and add your e-mail to be the first to see the site straight after launch.
Plans for Lula Mai Big Day are well under way now. With only two months to go we are officially on countdown. It has all been planned down to the last detail and the team at Lula Mai Events have been working very hard in order to make this perfect for our lovely couple Emma and Ross. The Times have approached us and the story so far will be published in their Valentines edition which we are all very excited about.
I have now booked my wedding planning course with The UK Alliance of Wedding Planners (UKAWP) which starts up next weekend in London and I am super excited about that. Can’t wait to network with other like-minded planners and see what extra things I can learn to help me on my way.
I am also delighted to announce that I have now taken over as chair for The Oxfordshire Weddings Project. For those of you that have not already heard about us we are a wedding networking group. We host meetings at various venues throughout Oxfordshire. I love to help people and make connections so when I was asked to do this I felt it was the perfect opportunity to do just that. Please follow our page or The Oxfordshire Project Website to find out where we will be next.
One last thing to announce – We have a couple of wedding fayres coming up. One of which is at Fallowfields Country House Hotel Sunday 8th March 11:30 – 4:00pm so feel free to pop along and meet all our wonderful suppliers. You can find the event here.
PHEW! Well I think that is me all caught up! I will keep you all updated.
Hugs and smiles
Christina 🙂
Chantilly Rose Weddings & Events would like to wish you all a very happy new year in to 2015!
This is going to be a huge year for us and we will officially be launching in a matter of months now. So exciting!! We look forward to working with lots of new clients and wonderful suppliers. So much planned for the new year and we can not wait! Bring it on 2015!
What have I been up to this week? Mostly getting ready for Christmas as has every other person. Pretty much there, a great organiser has got to be prepared! How far have you got?
I have also got a new e-mail address – christina@chantilly-rose.co.uk as my website is now in the process of being built which is all very exciting but will take some time and preparation to complete. If you would like to be put on the mailing list please go to my website and pop in your e-mail address to be the first to know the minute we go live!
I am currently going through all the hundreds of business cards and contacts I have received over the past few months and finally adding them in to my contacts list. Lots to prepare for but it will all be worth it in the end and means I have a wide range of contacts for my brides.
Hope you are all enjoying the holidays so far.
Christina xx
My second announcement of the day which I am extremely excited to tell you all about is…
I have now taken over as chair for The Oxfordshire Weddings Project! I am honoured to have been asked and I will be doing my very best to make this work. I can’t wait to meet some new business owners in the wedding industry and hopefully make some new friends in the process.

Exciting news to announce at the Chantilly Rose HQ! I have a fabulous new logo! Huge thanks to Julia at Wolf Productions for designing for me. After reading through the brief I gave her I think she did a fabulous job. What do you all think? The circle/oval signifies unity. We kept the colours and main italic font from the previous one but I wanted to simplify the rose and make it look more professional.
This time on my visit to see James I bought cake! It went down a treat with a nice cup of tea. More work was done on my upcoming website although I’m not sure how productive we were as we were a little distracted by the cakes….
Here’s what you have all been waiting for…. my secret mission was to help Fiona at Designed to Sparkle with her new website. She needed a bridal model to showcase all her beautiful bridal collection. She hand makes a wide selection of bracelets, necklaces, headpieces and more. It was such a lovely day although very cold with it being December but we all thoroughly enjoyed it and worked extremely hard. The shoot was at the gorgeous Wyck Hill House Hotel in the Cotswolds and helping us with hair and make up was the lovely Sam. Jenny at Jenny Stewart Photography was on hand to take all those remarkable shots and the dress was very kindly loaned from The Cotswold Frock Shop. Here are a few behind the scenes shots for you to look at before we get to see the end product shortly….
Theres a new tiny fur ball pattering about at the Lula Mai HQ. He is mega cute and I just couldn’t resist doing a quick blog post about him. His name is Oscar and he arrived on base a mere two weeks ago and has already settled in. I popped over to see him and mummy Rachel and got a little cuddle off him before he ran off to play with his brother and sister Jess and Pip. Just look at his little face, could he BE any cuter? ……
