I S L E O F I S LA Y An incredible and exciting view. ByChenai is planning a multi day, summer wedding celebration on this island off the coast of Scotland. With only 4 months to plan, this is a logistically complex brief but one that really sets my creative brain and planner soul on fire. More to come đź“· @coottt . . . . . #ukweddingplanner #islayhousehotel #islayhousewedding #luxuyrywedding #weekendwedding #bychenaievents #scotlandweddingplanner #bridetobe #luxuryweddingplanners #isaidyes #destinationwedding #islaywedding #destinationweddiplanner #bychenai #summerwedding #islandwedding #weddingweekend #eventprofsuk #luxuryparties #weddinginscotland #eventplanneruk #weddingplanners #isleofislay 
H E R I T A G E The country house wedding isn't for everyone. Personally I'm fascinated by these homes and their histories, the treasures they keep inside the rooms that have seen so many different eras of parties and celebrations. I love that for those who don't want to start with a blank canvas, you're given such a rich tapestry to work with. This house has been photographed many times, hosted many a wedding and often in the same style. My challenge is to create something new and not seen before . Challenge accepted. . . . . . #weddingplanners #weddingplanneruk #ukweddingplanner #countryhousewedding #bychenai #bridetobe #isaidyes #luxurwedding #englishwedding #timelesswedding 
D E S I G N When it comes to designing a wedding, I really try to research and gather as much reference as I can to pull together relevant details for the look and feel, especially where there are cultural themes involved. It would have been easy to go for red lanterns straight away as my clients are of Chinese heritage but in the wonderful wormhole of Cantonese art and other delights that I found myself in....I came across these fans and I'm obsessed. To the inspiration board they go! . . . . #weddingplanners #chinesewedding #londonweddingplanners #isaidyes #bridetobe2023 #hongkongwedding #bridetobe2022 #ukweddingplanner #weddingdesign #weddingdecor #weddingstyling #culturalwedding #luxurywedding #weddingplannersuk #luxuryweddingplanners #bychenai #weddinginspiration #weddinginspo 
P O S E ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Will I be able to have photos in the room before people come in?" ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Absolutely! In fact I insist on it ;) Most ByChenai couples take great pleasure in the collaborative process of putting together their design scheme. It's rarely an exercise I do on my own that they just go along with. So when it comes to the wedding day schedule, I include some time for my couple's to experience the grand reveal of their reception spaces on their own without guests so they can see and enjoy the layout. I also plan for the photographer to be present so we can capture those moments of them interacting with the space, seeing the delightful and personal touches before the guests come in.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Planning & design ByChenai⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷 @charlottewisephotography⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🌸 @bloominghaus⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👗 @ritacolson⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💄 @kelparrynguyen⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tabletop @duchessandbutler⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weddingplanner #luxuryweddingplanner #weddingplanneruk #ukweddingplanner #isaidyes #oxfordshirewedding #countryhousewedding #blushpinkwedding #kirtlingtonparkwedding #brides #englishwedding #bridetobe2022 #weddinginspiration⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weddingflowers #springwedding #shesaidyes #bridetobe2023 #weddinginspo 
I N S P I R A T I O N It's been a full on few weeks at ByChenai HQ and a steady stream of new enquiries and bookings to keep me busy! I love when people reference my work in their enquiries or something they've seen on this grid. I am actually remixing this colour pallette for an August bride but adding some very contemporary touches. It's been really great to work on plans for big weddings again. I'll be honest, whilst I love the intimacy and focus on the couple a micro wedding provides, I personally would like a return to larger celebrations sooner rather than later....not long now 🤞🏽 Planning & Styling ByChenai 📷@charlottewisephotography 🌸@bloominghaus 👗@ritacolson 💄@kelparrynguyen Tabletop @duchessbutler . . . . . #oxfordwedding #oxfordshirewedding #kirtlingtonparkwedding #shesaidyes #marqueeweddingplanner #isaidyes #countryhousewedding #brides #weddingsathome #englishwedding #luxuryweddingplanner #weddings #bridetobe2022 #ukweddingplanner #bychenaievents #weddingplanneruk #ukweddingplanner #springwedding 
G L A M O U R With edge. Matt & Bobbie 's luxury wedding wasn't your typical "timeless wedding celebration". Every ounce of the wedding oozed glamour and personality with an edge. They had a classic wedding ceremony at the grand Wollaton Hall then took their guests to a Gatsby inspired after party , complete with secret speakeasy you entered via a hidden door, bespoke cocktails and a very lively dancefloor. ByChenai clients are a diverse and multicultural bunch , who love the luxurious details but above all - want a memorable celebration for their best day. We have some availability to help you with your small but luxurious summer celebration. Don't hesitate to get in touch! đź“· @jrcmccord #weddingstyling #weddingplanneruk #chicbride #coolbride #isaidyes #planningawedding #ukweddingplanner #bridetobe2022 #bridetobe2023 #bychenaiwedding #shesaidyes #bridalstyle #stylishwedding #weddingreception #groomstyle #londonweddingplanner #realwedding #weddingsuit #weddinfdress 
D R A M A Of the good kind. This gown on @bobbiesioux was such a sight to behold especially with the background of this painted room at Wollaton Hall. I so enjoy looking back at these photos. As a couple, their personal style was present in every detail of their wedding. It was a really special day. đź“·@jrcmccord #bridalstyle #weddinggown #enzoanibride #chicbride #brides #wollatonhallwedding #bridetobe2022 #countryhousewedding #bridetobe2023 #weddingplanneruk #ukweddingplanner #weddingplanning #planningawedding #luxryweddingplanner #luxurywedding 
R E M E M B E R Those really great days. Looking into the vault and bringing back this favourite from 2019 of Bobbie & Matt at Wollaton Hall. Their wedding was featured in @weddingideas magazine. đź“· @jrcmccord #weddingplanner #weddingplanneruk #ukweddingplanner #bychenaiwedding #realwedding #wollatonhallwedding #englishwedding #enszoanibride #countryhousewedding #britishwedding #planningawedding #weddingideas #weddinginspiration #weddinginspo 
M E A D O W I took this image of Claire on my phone, so beautiful are these blooms that even with my basic photography skills, they just make this frame.
