A 30-guest ROM solemnisation and a long, leafy lunch — small, warm and entirely unhurried.
Wei Ling and Jonathan wanted the opposite of a production: a small solemnisation at the Registry, then a long lunch with the people they love most. They’d planned it themselves and only wanted someone to hold the day so they could be in it. Day-of coordination was exactly that.
We met twice in the month before to learn every moving part — the solemniser’s timing, the restaurant’s service flow, who was giving the toasts, where the rings and the licence lived. Then we built a tight, gentle run sheet and took the phone off the couple entirely.
On the day our coordinator was the only person tracking time. She cued the witnesses, kept lunch flowing course-by-course, looked after the grandparents, and made sure the couple were fed and never once asked “what’s next?”. The smallest weddings are often the ones where coordination matters most.
“It was tiny and perfect. Having someone hold the day meant we could actually enjoy our own lunch.”
