From the time we hired the WHOLE of the British Museum for dinner for 17 post a simple registry wedding. I might add the first wedding at the museum.  To a wedding with only 24 guests last year at the Wallace Collection. And that lush weekend wedding for just under 50 guests at my favourite country hotel, escape Lime Wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-where-do-you-typically-find-inspiration-when-orchestrating-a-wedding\">3.&nbsp;Where do you typically find inspiration when orchestrating a wedding?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Typically, there are two primary forms of inspiration. The couple. The venue. The couple naturally, without quizzing too much, who what where. What they love, are they loud, are they more reserved, and most importantly, know what they loathe \u2013 so I avoid and go down the correct route. But it could be a little nugget of info they mention in a planning meeting from a nickname or a funny story. I\u2019m biting onto that tale and running to pin it to my mood boards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" class=\"wp-image-11037267\" title=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-770x1027.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-500x667.jpg 500w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-293x391.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-390x520.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" class=\"wp-image-11037267\" title=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-770x1027.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-500x667.jpg 500w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-293x391.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-390x520.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/120-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The chosen venue massively influences me creatively. Like most of us, I\u2019m a fan of interiors but also architecture. I like creating d\u00e9cor that looks at home in a space. Even though we\u2019ve spent months creating it, I want it to look effortless to the guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Making an idea look like it belongs. Be it wallpaper, paint colour on the walls, or the gardens already in situ. I always tell my couples I\u2019d love a guest to come back to the venue a week after, and with shock note, some of our added detail is no longer there. Creating to make something look at home is fulfilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-what-advice-would-you-give-to-those-starting-in-the-wedding-industry\">4. What advice would you give to those starting in the wedding industry?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Be strong, value your time and don\u2019t be afraid to bill for it. Research and bring something that\u2019s not already there. Be organised, not just creative; no one can be an artist if they don\u2019t know how to deliver it logistically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" class=\"wp-image-11037271\" title=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-770x1027.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-500x667.jpg 500w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-293x391.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-390x520.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" class=\"wp-image-11037271\" title=\"Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-770x1027.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-500x667.jpg 500w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-293x391.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD-390x520.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/123-COPYRIGHTNIEMIERKOLTD.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Insider Interview: Mark Niemierko<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">And while, yes, the market is overly saturated, there are massive amounts of space\u2014namely, as there are very few who are good at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Being a brand is my biggest tip.
