How to Choose a Wedding Stylist for Your Lancashire Wedding
As you prepare for what will be one of the most special days of your life there are lots of things to think about. Choosing a wedding stylist is an important decision for any couple planning their wedding day and so it is worth putting some careful thought into it. A wedding stylist is responsible for perfecting all the tiny details that are often overlooked. With so many talented wedding stylists to choose from in Lancashire, it can be challenging to know where to start but your dream wedding stylist is out there and their expertise will be invaluable when planning your big day.
What is a wedding stylist?
Not to be mistaken for a wedding planner, a wedding stylist is responsible for creating the overall look and atmosphere of your special day and wedding venue in Lancashire. A wedding stylist has the ability and skillset to turn an engaged couple’s dream wedding day into a reality, creating a tastefully cohesive look from beginning to end. They specialise in creating a picture-perfect setting for your wedding and make sure everything fits together seamlessly. They work closely with the couple to understand their wedding theme, style and preferences to create a bespoke wedding design and floor plan. On your big day, they will even set everything up, so you don’t have to worry about doing it yourself beforehand.
Think furniture, props, lighting, ceremony backdrops, floral table centrepieces and ceiling installations. Wedding stylists oversee all the small details that are often overlooked and pull together your wedding theme and event styling harmoniously. Your wedding stylist will typically begin by encouraging you to put together a wedding mood board or inspiration board that reflects your dream wedding aesthetic. From this, they will draw from your vision and match design elements such as wedding flower arrangements and other wedding venue decorations in accordance with this. Your voice matters, so a wedding stylist is there to listen when you need them and are sure to create a day that you will remember for the rest of your lives.
Why have a wedding stylist?
Hiring a wedding stylist for your themed wedding will be one of the best things you do. A wedding stylist is the fairy godmother of the wedding planning world. That is, you will certainly see a glimpse of magic in their work when your dream wedding has been turned into reality right before your eyes. Among the services that a wedding stylist offers leading up to your wedding day, they will remove unwanted stress, help you get the most out of your venue space, make sure your day is polished no matter your wedding style and bring to life the atmosphere you want to create for the day. And if that isn’t enough to convince you, an extra pair of crafty hands will be massively appreciated on the day. So why not hire a wedding stylist for your wedding venue in Lancashire? You won’t regret it, that’s for sure!
How much does a wedding stylist cost?
The average cost for a wedding stylist in the UK is anywhere between £800-£5000. The cost of a wedding stylist is dependent on a number of factors including the stylist’s expertise, hourly rate, the size of the wedding and travelling distance. Wedding stylists were once only used for celebrity weddings with big budgets but wedding stylists are now much more accessible and affordable. Although a wedding stylist is not really a necessity, you will definitely feel a massive relief lifted from you and, for some, this is worth the expense.

How to choose a wedding stylist?
Choosing the right wedding stylist may feel like a daunting task at first and you might not know where to start. A great way to begin your search is by looking for wedding stylists and event styling companies in your local area. Check out their websites and social media to find a portfolio of their work as well as reviews from previous clients. A wedding stylist should prioritise your needs as a couple and understand how to turn your vision into a reality, so it is important to find a wedding stylist that resonates with your own personal style and unique wedding theme. If you feel your wedding stylist doesn’t fully understand your vision or won’t listen, then they aren’t the right one!
A wedding stylist should ideally be brought into the wedding planning process as early as possible. You should consider hiring a wedding stylist as soon as you have booked your wedding venue in Lancashire and before you make any big design decisions. Wedding stylists may also take on the role of venue stylists. Using their refined skills, they will be able to take your vision and apply it to the setting you have chosen for your wedding. Keep your wedding budget in mind when choosing a stylist but most importantly make sure that you are comfortable with your wedding stylist and that you trust their ideas for your wedding styling. If you have a good feeling about a particular wedding stylist, go with your instincts and let your voice be heard.
