About me

VOTED NORTH-WEST WEDDING PLANNER OF THE YEAR

Charlotte Dodd

My love for all things weddings and events definitely stemmed from watching Father of the Bride every single Saturday from a young age. Franc, the wedding planner, although definitely eccentric was humorous, organised and created a gorgeous marquee wedding decorated in glistening lights and adorned with flowers! Who wouldn’t want to do that as a career?

 

In the past I worked for a local luxury wedding venue as a wedding and events manager and learnt invaluable knowledge and experience about customer service and how important it is to have everything meticulously planned whilst still having a plan B!

 

In the years leading up to establishing Charlotte Elise Weddings and Events I worked with top wedding planners in the industry. After gaining copious amounts of experience working on different weddings in both the UK and Europe I felt it was the right time to use my organisational, professional and communicative skills to establish my own company and therefore nine years ago Charlotte Elise Weddings and Events was created!

Based in Cheshire, we are now a team of wedding and event planners planning luxury weddings and events throughout the U.K. as well as destination weddings abroad. We have worked with fantastic suppliers all over the world and no wedding or event is too big or too small.

 

Our creative, personal approach to each wedding and event we plan mean that your ideas and dreams come to life without exceeding your budget.

 

With Charlotte Elise Weddings and Events, you can be rest assured that you will get the event of your dreams – putting your ideas together and adding a professional touch. Any event you choose to plan with us will be stress-free meaning you can relax and enjoy the build up to the event as well as confidence on the day that everything will go according to the precise plan.

Testimonials

Charlotte and her team did an amazing job for us on our wedding day. She managed to make our dreams a reality and it was so wonderful to see everything come together on our weekend in Italy. We managed to have a stress free event and really enjoy ourselves. She was there for us from day one and made our wedding so special. We were really happy with the suppliers and everyone that worked on the wedding.

Gylfi Sigurdsson + Alexandra Ivarsdottir

From our first conversation to my final meeting Charlotte was amazing. She dealt with all suppliers, venue bookings etc that took the stress of everything which felt like a weight had been lifted. Even when I wanted things changed last minute literally the week before my wedding Charlotte sourced them for me and everything went to plan. In all our meetings Charlotte was so professional and came up with some great ideas. I was so nervous leading upto my big day but Charlotte made us feel so comfortable. On the day she worked with the venue and everything was perfect I wish I could do it all again xx

Rachael Bellew, Bride

Charlotte was fantastic in every way. We could not have had the day we did without her. In the run up to the day nothing was too much trouble and our emails were answered very promptly which is important at that time. On the day she was on hand for anything we needed and coordinated everything so beautifully! I would recommend Charlotte 100% as she not only ensures everything goes to plan but also enhances the day.

Emma Bateman, Bride

Charlotte is in our eyes, a planner extraordinaire; helping to successfully execute our wedding at Knowsley Hall despite us not confirming the date or venue until 7 weeks prior to the actual day. We hired Charlotte to help coordinate our wedding from start to finish, and could not have asked for anything more. She organised everything from meetings with suppliers, down to negotiating prices, and arranging everything (and everyone) on the day. We never doubted for a second that everything would run smoothly, and true to form she executed the day to perfection.

Charlotte McCormack, Bride

Charlotte was so organized and so meticulous, she ensured every detail for our big day was absolute perfection! My husband and I live in the US and were planning a destination wedding in Europe. Charlotte planned a 5-day stay for all of our guests at a beautiful villa in Italy, Casa Cornacchi. She found the best-of-the-best vendors, dealt with me changing my mind 100 times (with absolute calm and ease) and created the most beautiful 5 days! She is so accommodating and made this experience completely stress-free for us and all of our guests!! I would highly recommend Charlotte to any and all brides!!

Whitney Macleod, Bride

We cannot speak highly enough of Charlotte. From the moment we met her we knew we were in good hands with the planning of our wedding. Charlotte’s passion and dedication for what she does is unparalleled, her attention to detail is amazing and she really listens to you. She was able to make our vision of our dream wedding come true and we felt on the same page every step of the way. She is a true professional and on top of that really lovely to work with. Will miss planning with you!

Miriam Dea Refberg, Bride

Charlotte, we don’t know where we can begin to thank you for making our wedding day perfect in every single way. It was seamless from start to finish and we couldn’t have picked a better wedding planner! From the moment we met you, you were really professional and we knew we could 100% place our trust in you. You completely took the stress away and reassured us throughout. Thank you for everything, especially for organising the very last minute details on the week of the wedding, which were dealt with instantly and made all the difference. We could not recommend Charlotte enough, for anybody thinking of hiring a wedding planner don’t look any further!!

Kate Steele, Bride

I am so glad we picked Charlotte and the on the day service she offers for our wedding day. Charlotte made me feel totally relaxed on the day as I knew she had everything under control. Nothing was too much trouble for her and any issues I had in the run up to the wedding I knew I could just pick up the phone and she would have the answer. Thanks again Charlotte for helping our day perfect.

Rebecca Smith, Bride

We can’t thank Charlotte enough for her support in making the wedding of our dreams! Whilst I put a lot of effort into the planning and decisions, it would all have been wasted had it not been for Charlotte to bring it all together on the day and I would encourage anyone considering this to go for it – it will be the best wedding decision you will make!

Rebecca Porter, Bride

Charlotte and her team plan the most beautiful weddings and are a delight to work with. She is very talented at what she does with a fantastic eye for detail. Would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding planner.

Shane Webber, Photographer

Charlotte came on board to plan my wedding a mere 8 weeks before the big day! And I honestly don’t know what I would have done without her. I am not a very wedding orientated person and although I was excited I wasn’t relishing in the actual planning, she however was a star she gave me direction and motivation as well as inspiration.

Katie Beveridge, Bride

I can’t recommend Charlotte highly enough!! After setting our wedding date and venue (in a tipi at home). Without a wedding venue manager, we decided we would need someone to manage our weekend wedding, to take any stresses or potential issues off myself, my husband to be or anyone in the wedding party. From the minute I spoke to Charlotte on the phone, to discuss at length the service we were looking for, and the service she offered, we knew that she would be perfect for the job!

Lucy Lloyd, Bride

Recently we were privileged to conduct a destination Sikh Wedding at Lake Como Italy. Charlotte and her team from Charlotte Elise Wedding and Events were the lead planners for the grand 3-day event at a Villa in Italy. Over 150 guests from the UK descended at this exotic location. Charlotte and her team were proactive in aspects of the wedding. They were very easy to work with, had an extremely professional demeanour, always present and on the ball, and were very helpful during the entire set up process. We highly recommend their superb services! Don’t hesitate to utilize their services to coordinate your destination wedding anywhere in Europe.

Dr Freedom Singh, Sikh Priest

From day one of speaking with Charlotte, I knew she would be the person to help our wedding visions become a reality! We instantly connected over our love for the Father of the Bride film and how I envisioned the style to be reminiscent of the movie with a modern approach, she knew right away what I meant. Charlotte’s attention to detail, reassurance that no issue is too big or too small to overcome, was also able to be our voice by ensuring that our needs and wants were met by all suppliers, and her passion to strive for the greatest end product is next to none!!!

Brittany Steinmiller, Bride

When we got engaged I didn’t think I had a vision for what we wanted for our wedding. That’s why I searched for a wedding planner to help, I’m SO glad I did. From the first meeting with Charlotte I knew I was in safe hands, she really understood what it was I wanted to achieve when I didn’t really know it myself. From start to finish she was wonderful and went above and beyond. Many see a wedding planner as an extravagance but they really shouldn’t, it took all the stress off us especially on our special day as Charlotte co-ordinated everything and we could just enjoy ourselves.

Joanne Gardner, Bride

Charlotte is the most organised person I have ever met, she is always on hand day or night to help with anything at all. Nothing was ever too much trouble and she always responded to all emails very promptly. She was so organised at every meeting and my venue was amazed by her. She was everything we hoped and more!

Michelle Lawton, Bride

Charlotte was absolutely outstanding. So professional, calming and organised. I truly could not have pulled off such a magnificent wedding without her!

Hanna Kinsella, Bride

Charlotte is amazing!!! I didn’t have the easiest wedding to plan as it originally was slated to be in Tuscany Italy, but due to Covid had to be replanned and moved a few times! Charlotte didn’t miss a beat in making sure that my vendors and planning was moved and rearranged perfectly! She negotiated vendor pricing and made sure I kept my sanity during all the ups and downs I faced with navigating Covid rules and restrictions! She is absolutely lovely and easy to deal with and I can’t recommend her enough! My wedding was perfect and I could not have done it without Charlotte! I can not recommend her enough!

Kelly Lawrence, Bride
Charlotte Elise helped organise and manage our wedding in July 2021. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect on the day. Due to the dreaded covid we had to rearrange our wedding which Charlotte single handedly sorted out for us. We would highly recommend.
 
Will Jones, Groom

My husband and I were married on the 3rd September 2022 at St.Boniface Church, Bunbury. Reception was at Nunsmere hall.

Charlotte saved our wedding day!!! Charlotte was there from the crack of dawn to the end. She made sure any issues were covered and I was none the wiser. Charlotte helped me half way through my wedding planning, as it was all getting a little too much for me. She came in like a knight in shining armour. 2022 was the busiest year for weddings and Charlotte was extremely busy. But if I needed her she would reply the moment she had spare time. Which I really appreciate. HIRE HER!!!!!! You need her. Don’t do the day without a wedding planner, and don’t do it without Charlotte by your side.

 
 
Amy Mason, Bride

Charlotte made our wedding dreams at Grantley Hall a reality. It was absolutely stunning!
This amazing lady is one in a million and she really is the wedding planner extraordinaire.
She was by my side supporting me prior with one to one meetings, and was there every step of the way on my wedding day. Charlotte went above and beyond and more.
I even had a little moment it was simply that breathtaking – I was lost for words.
I cannot recommend Charlotte Elise Weddings and Events enough!
Thank you so much Charlotte, from the bottom of our hearts.

Jodie Myers, Bride

We had about half-planned our wedding when we had to postpone for a year due to COVID-19. When we picked up the planning again as it became clear that the wedding could go ahead, with just 3 or 4 months to go, we became overwhelmed and couldn’t see how we were going to pull it off on our own.

We found Charlotte online and, from her first speedy response to our enquiry form, the stress just melted away and planning became fun again. Charlotte has excellent supplier recommendations and connections. She is able to give you advice on everything from the major to the minor details. If there were ever any issues or slightly hairy moments during the planning or the day, she never let that show. Charlotte’s aura of calm and control was infectious throughout the planning and helped us feel the same way.

The day itself could not have gone better. Everything was executed perfectly, and Charlotte’s management of the day exceeded all expectations. She was utterly professional and handled everything from the overall logistics to helping individual guests with grace and a smile. We did not have to deal with a single query or issue on the day and we felt as if we were guests as opposed to hosts. Charlotte was instrumental in making our wedding day the most magical day of our lives and we would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone planning a wedding or event.

Jade Rothwell, Bride
Charlotte planned our wedding for well over a year from start to finish. I would highly recommend her services, nothing was too much trouble for Charlotte, from recommending and booking all of our suppliers to answering all of my queries and organising the finer details on the day. We were always in constant communication with each other. She always remembered everything I mentioned about my vision and the aesthetics for the day and her attention to detail really stood out for me. All of our guests commented how well organised our wedding day was and it really took the stress away from us on the day so that we could just sit back, take it all in and enjoy ourselves. If you are thinking about hiring a wedding planner, without a doubt go for it, and Charlotte won’t disappoint, she is incredibly passionate about her career and the role she plays with each couple she works with. She has a very bright future ahead! Thank you, Charlotte. I only wish we could do it all again! x
 
Zoe Jackson, Bride
I found Charlotte through instagram and since the first initial phone call I knew she was the perfect wedding planner! Having to rearrange the wedding due to the pandemic, Charlotte made the whole process so stress free and went over & beyond to sort this for us. Since we planned the wedding at our family home, she was able to arrange everything perfectly to the last detail! The suppliers loved working with her and we did too!
We’re beyond grateful to have worked with Charlotte and would highly recommend to all future couples xx
 
 
Arita Farjo, Bride
Our wedding was planned throughout covid as we got engaged the day before the national lockdown so we knew wedding planning wasn’t going to be straight forward in the early stages with all of the restrictions! We met with Charlotte who supported us through the wedding planning process, she arranged venue viewings and gave recommendations for reliable suppliers and made contact with them on our behalf (and they were all absolutely brilliant!!!). As well as offering her advice when it came to venue decoration and flowers – something we had no idea about and really appreciated the guidance . Charlotte co-ordinated the running order of the day and communicated amongst suppliers. On the day, it ran so smoothly, Charlotte worked in the background to ensure everything was in order so we didn’t need to worry about anything. In the lead up, people would tell us that wedding planning is extremely stressful, however we didn’t feel any of that and we’re so relaxed, thanks to Charlotte!
 
Anya Barrett, Bride
Hiring Charlotte Elise Wedding & Events was the best decision we made when planning our wedding.

Charlotte helped with the sourcing and booking of suppliers and it was amazing to have access to her knowledge. Once booked she handled the venue and all suppliers brilliantly taking all the stresses of us. On the run up to our wedding day she ensured they all knew timings and answered any questions, she also made sure we hadn’t forgotten anything (even ordering some items for us!) On our wedding day Charlotte coordinated everyone (caterers, band, production etc) and helped with the setting up. Knowing Charlotte was there meant that we didn’t have to worry once and looking back it was essential in helping us enjoy our wedding day.

Afterwards many of our guests commented on how well the day flowed and it was great to hear what an amazing time our friends and family had. We cannot thank Charlotte enough for helping us plan and deliver our dream day!
 
Olivia & Jamie Cater

We initially contacted Charlotte a couple of years ago to plan our wedding. She was brilliant from the get go – extremely responsive, friendly and knowledgeable. The pandemic hit and we had to re arrange our wedding. Charlotte went over and beyond to sort this for us. It was an extremely stressful time and Charlotte made everything so easy for us. We had our wedding last week and it was Perfect. Everything was arranged meticulously to the last detail. Everyone commented how great it was. I am so so glad we contacted Charlotte. She takes all of the stress away and allows you to enjoy the whole process. Would recommend all couples use her to plan your most perfect wedding! thank you so much xxx

Izzy Jaques-Behan, Bride

Charlotte was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole wedding process! She made herself available after normal work hours to accommodate our schedules and was always exceptional in dealing with all (and there were many) of our requests. Charlotte was extremely thorough and professional at all stages. She has a deep and extensive knowledge of everything to do with weddings and we really valued her insights, feedback and advice. She’s also great at dealing with suppliers and managing everything with the venue. We would highly recommend Charlotte if you’re thinking of using a wedding planner!!

Alex & Kathryn Kennedy
I have a busy work schedule and a young daughter so the thought of planning a wedding was extremely stressful. I have experience in the events industry so I was nervous about allowing someone to plan my wedding.
“Thank goodness for Charlotte!” She is absolutely fantastic at what she does. I sent a simple mood board of a few images of my dream wedding and her and the team made it happen. I had a completely stress free experience, everything was planned to perfection to the minute and I can honestly say it was the best decision I made. I can’t recommend Charlotte highly enough she is fantastic and lovely to work with. Thank you Charlotte
Sarah Syvret, Bride
Charlotte planned our day to perfection, it was everything I’d hoped and dreamed of.
From helping to choose the perfect venue to tiny details, Everything was spot on.
The day ran smoothly and Charlotte was a joy to work with. Would highly recommend and I wish we could do it all over again
Alexandra Bartley, Bride
