Zinc Occasions is known for their expertise in wedding planning — particularly for Asian weddings. However, we appreciate that they also work well for various other ceremonies. 

Their extensive experience is marked by numerous accolades from Asian Wedding Awards. For us, this establishes them as a trusted choice for couples seeking reliable wedding planning services.

Aside from planning, we are happy to share that they also have an in-house catering team. In fact, according to our research, clients have enthusiastically commended an extensive array of delectable desserts.

They also stand out for their round-the-clock accessibility. Since they’re open for 24 hours couples can receive updates and assistance whenever they require.

Just keep in mind that we received a couple of reports where the staff members were unresponsive to phone calls — especially during peak wedding season.

On a more positive note, we find their rates accommodating. Here, they are willing to work within various budgets — making them ideal for cost-conscious couples.

Their team’s customer service skills also leave a positive impression on most of their clients. 

According to our surveys, they exhibit politeness which is very important in what can be a very stressful planning experience. It’s also commendable that they extend their warmth and hospitality to all guests on the wedding day itself!

Taylor Lynn is a top choice for clients planning a grand wedding ceremony in Manchester. From our research, we think this aspect can be due to their substantial manpower resources.

Additionally, we believe that they bring a wealth of knowledge to the table with over a decade of experience in the industry, 

We also like that this team offers a wide array of services, extending beyond weddings to cover corporate events, birthdays, and more.

We were also delighted when we discovered that they also organise bachelor and bachelorette parties — offering the convenience of having a single planner for all pre-wedding festivities!

However, it’s worth mentioning that they lean toward larger events, which may not suit couples planning more intimate gatherings.

We have to note, though, that it’s advisable to book them well in advance due to their high demand—especially during peak wedding months.

And given their specialisation, we think it’s understandable that they charge higher compared to some other planners in the area. We also believe this is justified when you consider their reputation and the comprehensive services they offer.

On a more positive note, we learned from previous clients that once Taylor Lynn has been secured as your planner, you can expect their full attention and responsiveness.

Lastly, they’re highly commended by previous clients for their friendly and helpful demeanour. 

According to those we spoke with, they’ve created a stress-free and enjoyable atmosphere during events, allowing couples and guests to fully relish the celebration!

It’s also worth noting that this team primarily focuses on wedding planning. For us, this is a limitation when compared to planners offering a broader range of event services.

Another potential drawback is their availability. They’re only open from Tuesday to Friday — something that might not be ideal for clients who require immediate assistance or have tight schedules. 

And as expected for a company specialising in luxury events, their rates are on the higher end. However, we think this pricing is understandable given the level of service and premium experience they offer. 

Nonetheless, we also discovered from our surveys that they are attentive to special requests. For us, this makes them an excellent choice for couples with very particular tastes and preferences.

Stefanie Fetterman Ceremonies is the go-to choice for couples seeking a unique and non-traditional wedding experience. We think that their specialisation in alternative ceremonies sets them apart from the rest.

While they have a smaller and younger team compared to some other planners, we believe they are competent and creative.

Their fresh perspective can be an asset when crafting unique and unconventional wedding celebrations and this is evident in their portfolio.

We were impressed to find that they can cater to both large and intimate weddings. A previous customer also shared that they are agile in customising their services to meet the unique needs and preferences of each client.

They also offer affordable rates and can adjust to your budget — making them an ideal choice for cost-conscious couples. We believe that their flexibility in pricing allows more couples to access their unique wedding planning services without breaking the bank.

Overall, we think Stefanie Fetterman Ceremonies’ personalised customer service is a standout feature. According to the surveys that we’ve conducted, they invest time in getting to know their clients, making them feel like VIPs!

But given their smaller team, it’s advisable to book them well in advance to secure your wedding date. While this may require advance planning, it ensures that you have their full attention and commitment to making your wedding exceptional.

Additionally, we think their ability to execute personalised venue dressing and plan other events beyond weddings makes them a great choice for couples who have specific tastes.

Given their versatility in handling various occasions, in our books, it’s no surprise that they have a loyal client base that has been hiring them for years. 

We learned that they also excel in customer service. According to their clients, their planners went above and beyond, making them feel like they have a friend they can count on during their special day.

That said, Ex Pose Events can be in high demand, especially during peak wedding season. 

You’ll have to book at least a year ahead to secure their services for your special day. This ensures that they can dedicate their full attention to making your wedding exceptional.

The only downside we found, though, is they have slightly higher rates compared to some other planners in Manchester. However, we believe that their pricing is justified when you consider the inclusions of their services.
