When big budgets are involved, it can be easy to get carried away and spend lots on extravagant things, but special weddings are ones where the guests are considered. You\u2019re inviting guests to a truly special and memorable occasion, and if you have the budget, then really take care of them and make their day and experience exceptional from the minute they receive their invitation to when they leave the venue. I\u2019ve had clients that have thanked me after their wedding, saying that not only did they have the day of their dreams, but their guests had the best day ever and can\u2019t stop thanking them.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" class=\"wp-image-11030959\" title=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-390x260.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" class=\"wp-image-11030959\" title=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1-390x260.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1038x691-1.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_suppliers\"><\/span>The suppliers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;From a more practical perspective, you need to consider the suppliers you work with.

With luxury weddings, there are high expectations from the bride and groom over these. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">My clients are used to eating in the best restaurants and enjoying the finest wines. Like the rest of the wedding planning, the food and wine should be an experience for the couple from the outset, from the first tasting to enjoying it on the day itself. As a planner of high-end events, it\u2019s my job to ensure I meet and exceed my client&#8217;s expectations regarding the food and wine, and I work with venues and caterers that I know can meet this standard.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" class=\"wp-image-11030961\" title=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-390x260.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" class=\"wp-image-11030961\" title=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1-390x260.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/mayfair-1038x692-1.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Invitations\"><\/span>Invitations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;When thinking about invitations, I often need to consider whether some discretion is needed. This will, of course, depend on the bride and groom and the type of wedding they want. Maybe some details need to be disclosed closer to the wedding date for security reasons and to help better manage the wedding. If a celebrity is performing, some couples like to keep this as a surprise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">This is all something I need to consider and often help advise on. Likewise, at high-end weddings, security is something that needs to be considered. It may be a celebrity wedding, or there may be a celebrity act performing, and it\u2019s my job to make sure they are looked after and managed appropriately.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"732\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-1024x732.jpg\" alt=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" class=\"wp-image-11030962\" title=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-1024x732.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-770x550.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-800x572.jpg 800w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-293x209.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-390x279.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"732\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-1024x732.jpg\" alt=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" class=\"wp-image-11030962\" title=\"Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-1024x732.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-770x550.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-800x572.jpg 800w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-293x209.jpg 293w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1-390x279.jpg 390w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-2-1-1038x742-1.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Planning a luxury wedding \u2013 with Aimee Dunne<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Invite the people that matter. When there is the budget to invite many guests, this can be tempting, especially with couples who are well connected and trying to please lots of people for personal and work reasons. But a wedding shouldn\u2019t be about keeping everyone happy, especially people you might not be talking to in five years. Don\u2019t let the day be another performance where you\u2019re trying to please everyone for the wrong reasons or feel you need to meet and greet everyone attending.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Aimee Dunne provides exceptional wedding and event planning services for high-profile couples, business people and celebrities in the UK and overseas.
