Melanie James & Tania Hall

When we say property wedding, what comes to mind? Perhaps a beautiful marquee under a starry night with the most gorgeous sunset you ever did see across rolling hills as far as the eye can see? We’re the first to admit we love a property wedding. But here’s the thing. There is actually so much you need to consider when planning a property wedding. So, we have brought in an expert to talk all about this hot topic.

Lauren is the founder and creative director of ETC Event Styling and specialises in marquee and private property weddings. In this episode of Cut The Cake, we discuss with Lauren the logistical and infrastructure requirements you need to think about when planning a property wedding. The misconception of property wedding being a cheaper alternative and what you realistically need to budget for when planning a property wedding. And most importantly, the pros of having a property wedding cause there are so many! We couldn’t think of anyone better to discuss the topic of property weddings with so without any further ado, here is Lauren from ETC Event Styling.
