ONE-STOP WEDDING SUPPLIER GUIDE
Congratulations!
Planning a wedding can be one of the most exciting and
rewarding experiences for many couples. But it can also be time
consuming and sometimes a little bit daunting.
There’s a lot that goes in to planning a wedding. From the cake
to the dress, suits, venues, music, makeup, flowers, stationery
and that’s only the start of it! It’s no wonder so many brides and
grooms feel overwhelmed and unsure where to begin.
This is why we have created this comprehensive wedding
planning checklist and vendor guide. Now that you’ve got your
catering sorted, let us help you with the rest.
We’ve been in the business of catering weddings and special
events for 20 years and were awarded the 2018 ABIA QLD
Wedding Caterer of the year award. We know a thing or two
about what makes weddings memorable and we’ve worked
with some incredible vendors who we know you’ll love just as
much as we do.
Enjoy!

YOU’VE GOT THE RING, NOW IT’S TIME TO START PLANNING.
FOLLOW THESE THREE SIMPLE STEPS TO HELP YOU GET STARTED
1. PUT IT ON PAPER
Sit down with your partner and ask yourselves:
� How much can you realistically afford to spend?
� What style of wedding would you like?
� Is there a specific date or season you’d like?
� What are the most important elements to you?
� Approximately how many guests are you inviting?
2. BOOK YOUR VENUE
Some venues book out years in advance and many vendors
will require your venue details to accurately quote. When
booking your venue ask plenty of questions including:
� What’s included in the hire?
� How long will you have the space for?
� How many guests can your venue accomodate?
3.START SELECTING YOUR VENDORS
In this guide we’ve picked out some of our favourite vendors
and a timeline for booking your vendors, to help make
