Wedding Planners in Dorset

Finding wedding planners in Dorset

Lulworth Castle, Athelhampton House and Kingston Maurward between them host hundreds of weddings a year, and many of the wedding planners listed here have managed weddings at all three. Suppliers cluster around Bournemouth, Poole and Dorchester, with Weymouth drawing wedding planners who specialise in Jurassic Coast and Purbeck-area clifftop and barn venue events. Full planning packages typically run from £1,500 to £5,000, with on-the-day coordination available as a standalone option for couples who have managed most of the planning themselves.

Somerset, Wiltshire and Hampshire are all within easy reach, and most wedding planners in Dorset will travel to venues there without adding a surcharge. Ask how many weddings the planner takes on in the same month — some work exclusively on one wedding per weekend, others manage several simultaneously with a team. Establish whether you’ll work directly with the senior planner throughout or hand over to a coordinator before the day; this is one of the more common sources of disappointment when left unconfirmed.
