13 years Wedding Experience | Award Nominated |Based South Lincolnshire
From first idea to final detail, we create weddings that are as effortless as they are unforgettable.
Have you planned your wedding but suddenly realised you don't want to manage the day?
You have spent months maybe years making decisions.
You have booked the suppliers.
You have created the Pinterest boards.
You have chosen the flowers, food, music, décor and timings.
You know exactly how you want your wedding to look and feel.
The problem?
You don’t want to spend your wedding day answering supplier questions, checking deliveries, setting up tables, fixing last-minute problems or wondering whether everyone is where they should be.
And you definitely don't want to hand your phone to your mum, bridesmaid or best man and say:
"Can you sort this out for me?"
That’s where I come in.
Take a Pew Wedding & Events takes over the logistics, coordination and practical details so you can actually be present at your own wedding.
YOUR WEDDING ISN'T A STANDARD VENUE WEDDING?
THAT'S EXACTLY WHY YOU NEED A COORDINATOR.
DIY-planned weddings can be incredible. But they also come with a lot more to organise. Especially when you are getting married in a:
MARQUEE
BARN
DRY-HIRE VENUE
PRIVATE LAND
TIPI OR FESTIVAL-STYLE SETTING
You may have multiple suppliers arriving at different times, deliveries to coordinate, furniture and décor to set up, catering logistics, power, toilets, signage, parking and countless little details that don't exist in a traditional venue wedding.
Someone needs to be responsible for all of it.
And it shouldn't be you.
Take a Pew Wedding & Events steps in before and during your wedding to coordinate the moving parts, manage your suppliers and make sure the plans you've spent months creating actually happen.
You enjoy the wedding.
I manage the wedding.

Wedding Day Management
"You have planned it. I will run it"

Why couples choose Take a Pew Wedding & Events
Experience you can rely on
With over 13 years of wedding experience, I know that the magic is in the details and that the best-laid plans sometimes need a little flexibility. From the first planning meeting to the final guest leaving, you can trust me to keep everything on track.
I specialise in weddings that need extra coordination
Planning a wedding at a marquee, barn, private land or dry-hire venue can give you incredible freedom, but it also means there are more moving parts to manage. Suppliers, deliveries, setup, timings, power, catering, toilets and everything in between, I know how to bring it all together.
Your wedding should feel like YOUR wedding
There is no one-size-fits-all approach here. Whether you have planned every detail yourself or need help bringing your ideas to life, I work around your vision, your priorities and your budget.
I take care of the details, so you can enjoy the day
Your wedding day is not the time to be answering supplier calls, checking deliveries or wondering whether everything is happening on schedule. I take care of the logistics and behind-the-scenes details, allowing you to relax, celebrate and be fully present with the people you love.
Calm, capable and completely on your side
Things don't always go exactly to plan — and that's where experience really matters. I am there to solve problems, keep suppliers on track and quietly deal with the unexpected, without it becoming your problem.
You’ve planned the wedding. Let us run it.
Don't just take my word for it...
"Lorna, from Take a Pew, was absolutely amazing from start to finish.....
......she took the time to understand our vision and helped out every step of the way. She has helped us bring our dream day to life, making it better than we could have ever imagined. Her organisation, creativity, and calm presence made the whole process stress-free.
On the big day, at our wedding at Harlaxton Manor, Grantham, everything ran smoothly thanks to her behind-the-scenes magic, we didn't have to worry about a thing. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner!" Mr & Mrs Gorman
"It was my mum who found Lorna and the initial idea was to just have a bit of help to finish setting our venue on the morning of the wedding.....
.....however, when Lorna came over to talk about our plans and how she could help I found her confidence, knowledge and experience about weddings so comforting that I decided I wanted her there for my whole day!
Lorna was professional and discreet. She ensured everything went to plan communicating with all parties, she was such a lovely presence on the day yet a whirlwind behind the scenes!! A thorough, no nonsense Irish beauty 😄 she has an eye for detail and I embraced her suggestions - nothing was too much trouble! She went above and beyond for us on the day and I can’t thank her enough!
Honestly… I was able to watch all my friends and family relax and enjoy the day all thanks to Lorna ❤️ She is the best and hiring her was our best decision."
Love Mr & Mrs Burks
"Lorna has been a fantastic help....
.....she will answer your questions with honesty and experience and most of all quickly. On the day, Lorna worked tirelessly to help set up and get our venue, Stoke Rochford Hall, Grantham, wedding ready! She was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for everything."- Ashley
HI, I'M LORNA
THE PERSON YOU WANT IN YOUR CORNER ON YOUR WEDDING DAY.
I've been working in weddings and events for over 13 years, helping couples turn their ideas into weddings that look beautiful, feel personal and, most importantly, actually run smoothly.
My background in hospitality has taught me how to stay calm under pressure, think several steps ahead and make sure people feel looked after.
And after years of working behind the scenes at weddings, I know one thing for certain:
The best wedding days aren't necessarily the ones where nothing goes wrong.
They are the ones where someone is there to deal with it when it does.
That's me.
You enjoy the champagne, the speeches, the dancing and the people you love.
I'll worry about the timings, suppliers, logistics and everything else happening behind the scenes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
DO YOU ONLY COORDINATE WEDDINGS YOU HAVE PLANNED?
No. Wedding coordination is perfect for couples who have planned their own wedding and simply want someone experienced to take over the running of it.
DO YOU WORK WITH DRY-HIRE VENUES?
Absolutely. In fact, dry-hire, marquee, barn and private-land weddings are particularly suited to my coordination service because there are often more logistics to manage.
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK?
As soon as you know you want someone to coordinate your wedding, get in touch. Popular wedding dates can book well in advance.
CAN YOU HELP IF WE HAVE ALREADY BOOKED MOST OF OUR SUPPLIERS?
Yes. You don't need to have everything figured out before contacting me.
DO YOU PROVIDE WEDDING STYLING TOO?
Yes. I offer venue styling and décor alongside wedding planning and coordination.
DO YOU TRAVEL OUTSIDE LINCOLNSHIRE?
Yes. I work across Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Rutland and further afield. Travel and accommodation may apply depending on location.
HOW MUCH DOES WEDDING COORDINATION COST?
Every wedding is different, so I provide a tailored quote based on your plans, guest numbers, venue and the level of support you need.
WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG ON THE DAY?
You probably won't even know about it.
I'll dPLeal with supplier issues, timings, last-minute problems and the unexpected wherever possible — allowing you to concentrate on getting married and enjoying your celebration.
YOU HAVE SPEND MONTHS PLANNING THIS DAY.
NOW YOU GET TO ENJOY IT.
You shouldn't be checking the clock.
You shouldn't be answering supplier calls.
You shouldn't be setting up chairs.
You shouldn't be worrying whether the cake has arrived.
You should be getting married.
Let Take a Pew Wedding & Events take care of the rest.
