Independent wedding planner, Derbyshire
I'm Sarah. I plan and coordinate weddings for couples who want their day to feel personal, run smoothly, and leave them free to enjoy every minute of it.
I live in Golden Valley, near Riddings in Derbyshire, and I started Sarah Madeleine Weddings to help couples plan a day that feels completely like them.
Planning a wedding means hundreds of decisions, dozens of suppliers and a timeline that has to work to the minute. My job is to carry that for you. I keep the budget honest, the suppliers briefed and the plan on track, so the months before your wedding feel exciting rather than overwhelming.
On the day itself I'm the calm person with the schedule, the spare safety pins and the answers, quietly making sure everything happens when it should.

Every wedding is different, so each package is shaped around you. These are the starting points.
From the engagement to the morning after
I'm with you from the very start, finding the venue, building the team of suppliers and managing every detail.
Best for couples with busy lives, or anyone who'd like an expert alongside them from day one.
You've started; I'll help you finish
You've booked the big things and have ideas. I'll fill the gaps, tie it together and take over the logistics.
Best for couples who enjoy planning but want support with the parts that feel daunting.
You plan it; I make it happen
You've done the planning. I step in during the final weeks so you can hand over completely on the day.
Best for organised couples who want to switch off and be guests at their own wedding.
Prices depend on the size and shape of your wedding. Tell me about your plans and I'll send a tailored quote.
From hello to the wedding day, in four steps.
Send me a few details about your date, venue and ideas using the form below. I'll reply within two working days.
We'll arrange a relaxed call or coffee to talk through your plans and what kind of help would suit you best.
Once you've booked, we get to work: budgets, suppliers, styling and timelines, at whatever level of support you've chosen.
I arrive early, stay late and run everything in between, so you can be fully present with the people you love.
I'm based in Golden Valley, Derbyshire, and plan weddings across the East and West Midlands, from country houses and barns to town halls and back gardens.
Marrying further afield? Get in touch and we can talk about travel.
Share as much or as little as you know so far. If you haven't set a date yet, that's completely fine.
