jo As the founder of One Curious Dream, I’ve had the joy of planning and coordinating weddings right across the UK, but Norfolk will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s where I live, where I work, and where so many of my couples choose to celebrate their love stories. That’s why I’m proud to be counted among the leading Norfolk wedding planners, helping couples bring their dream days to life in this beautiful corner of England. Whether you’re dreaming of a relaxed marquee wedding in the Norfolk countryside, a chic celebration in Norwich, or a luxurious gathering along the coast, my role is to ensure your big day is everything you’ve imagined – and more.
When I talk to my couples about their wedding plans, one of the first questions I often ask is: why Norfolk? And the answers are always inspiring. Norfolk offers something truly unique: Scenic coastline – From Holkham to Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk’s beaches provide breathtaking backdrops for your wedding photos.
Countryside charm – Rolling fields, woodlands, and quaint villages create a perfect rural escape.
Historic venues – From medieval barns to stately homes and private estates, Norfolk’s venues are nothing short of magical.
Accessibility – With good transport links to London and beyond, it’s ideal if your guests are travelling from across the UK. If you’re looking for a county that’s rich in beauty, character, and atmosphere, Norfolk really does tick every box.
So, what does working with Norfolk wedding planners like me actually involve? My job is to take the stress and logistics off your shoulders so you can focus on enjoying the process. Some of the key ways I support couples include:
Helping you find the perfect Norfolk venue
Coordinating trusted local florists, caterers, photographers, and entertainment
Offering budget guidance to ensure you get the most from your investment
Creating detailed timelines so everything runs smoothly
Managing the wedding day itself, ensuring every detail is perfect
Ultimately, I’m here to make your wedding planning experience enjoyable, creative, and stress-free.
Many couples ask if hiring a planner is worth it – and in my experience, the answer is always yes. Here’s why:
Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re short on time. I take on the hard work so you can enjoy the fun parts.
As a Norfolk wedding planner, I know the county inside out. From hidden-gem venues to tried-and-tested suppliers, I’ll connect you with the very best.
I’ll help you make smart spending decisions, negotiate with suppliers, and avoid unnecessary costs.
If you have a vision but aren’t sure how to bring it to life, I’ll create a design that feels personal, stylish, and true to you as a couple.
On the day itself, I’ll be there behind the scenes, making sure everything runs smoothly so you can relax and enjoy every moment.
Every couple is different, which is why I offer a range of flexible planning options, including:
Full wedding planning – Perfect if you’d like me to take care of every detail from start to finish.
Partial planning – Ideal if you’ve started but need some expert support to pull everything together.
On-the-day coordination – A must-have for couples who want to relax on their wedding day knowing everything is handled.
Wedding design and styling – For couples who want a beautiful, cohesive look that feels completely unique.
I’ve been lucky enough to work at some of the most incredible venues across the county. A few of my favourites include:
Voewood – A wonderfully eclectic arts and crafts house for unique celebrations.
Holkham Hall – One of Norfolk’s most iconic stately homes.
Oxnead Hall – A stunning estate with lakeside gardens and elegant interiors.
Chaucer Barn – A relaxed, rustic barn surrounded by countryside.
Norwich city venues – Ideal if you’re dreaming of a chic, urban wedding.
Whether your dream wedding is grand and luxurious or intimate and laid-back, Norfolk has the perfect venue.

A strong portfolio that reflects your style of wedding
Testimonials from happy couples
A good personal connection – you’ll be working closely together
Clear pricing and services that fit your needs
