Although it is a month since Nathan and Angella's wedding, it still remains a strong and perfect memory for me. I want to thank you for all you did. It would not have been as wonderful without your calm and assured input. There were many little details you looked after or considered and included - and it is such details that make a huge difference to the total effect. I have received several emails and cards from guests who have raved about the wedding and some of that praise is surely due to you and your arrangements, even to the weather!
I have been talking to some UK friends of mine and telling them of the wonderful job you did for us. Their daughter is getting married in Noosa and we wondered if you travelled so far?
Bob joins me in wishing you all the best for 1020 - you have helped our family a great start to this decade.
Thank you - Lorraine - 7th March 2010
Ruby's - Lennox Head 28th November 2009
Back home in Esperance after Lara's wedding and just wanted you to know your decorating was one of the highlights of the wedding. I am so glad I paid for you to do the fairylights and organza draping and chair covers. They made Ruby's look weddingly and romantic before it was dark. And when the lights did turn on, it was magical, especially when there was a light breeze. People who have been to Ruby's before said it was the best they had seen it look.
Another highlight was the rose petals, the colours were perfect. Thank you for sourcing them.
After the ceremony, we went to Byron @ Byron for photos and then onto Wategos for some more photos. I wish I hadn't, as it was hot and windy and we were late for the reception. I had planned to get to Ruby's before everyone and take in the tealights and spread them around. A shower in between would also have been nice.
So tell mothers-of-the-bride to get help from a wedding planner (YOU) and do everything before the ceremony! because the time goes really fast.
Thank you Sonja and Ricci

Byron Bay Hinterland - 23rd February 2008
I cannot recommend Sonja and her team at Byron and Beyond Weddings enough. They did a wonderful job decorating the venue for my daughter's wedding. The communication with Sonja before hand and help chosing the right things for each area we were using was not easy, as I had only seen the venue once and was doing it all long distance from Sydney. Sonja gave clear advice and close to the wedding was open to suggestions and changing things we originally planned. Sonja enthusiastically undertook a new style of ceiling draping from a picture found in an American magazine, which involved having to make totally new drapings and how to do it. Her ability to work in strong winds Saturday morning and that all held up to a late afternoon ceremony and evening reception was a real tribute to her professionalism. I had reservations about things such as fairy lights, but it was so well done, that I was immensly grateful as the effect later in the evening ws perfect. I cannot thank her enough for helping make our daughter's wedding day a truly beautiful and memorable occasion
with sincere gratitude - Patricia - 4th April 2008
