Spear’s Review 

The pressure is certainly turned up for award-winning wedding planner Sarah Haywood, who has organised events for pop stars, royalty and Fortune 500 CEOs. While she is unable to divulge to Spear’s the identity of her legendary clients – due to numerous NDAs – she does reveal that at the top end, she has seen couples spend up to 10 figures for their big day.

With big price tags come big expectations, and Haywood is committed to delivering first-class client service. ‘We understand that for the families we’re working with, service is at the heart of what they want. They receive world-class service wherever they go, and in whatever they do,’ she says. ‘The reference point is already really high, so that’s our challenge. Everything we do needs to be the best of the best.’
