Gloucestershire
Our home county — and one of the most beautiful in England. From the Cotswold escarpment to the Severn Vale and the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire offers wedding settings of extraordinary variety.
E&M Event Management is based in Minsterworth, Gloucestershire — and we plan weddings and events across the entire county. We know the venues, the suppliers, and the back-roads. We know which marquee company can pitch a sailcloth on a slope, which florist will conjure a six-metre installation overnight, and which caterer can serve 180 covers without ever raising their voice.
Whether you are planning a country house wedding in the Cotswolds, a riverside reception by the Severn, a hidden-garden private party, or a corporate event at Cheltenham Racecourse, we bring deep local expertise to every brief.
Locally based, nationally trusted — and obsessively detail-oriented.
Practical planning in Gloucestershire
Country-house weddings and marquee celebrations have different delivery requirements. Check vehicle access, power, toilets and wet-weather arrangements before finalising the supplier schedule; allow time for travel between a ceremony venue and reception.
Alongside weddings, explore our private celebration planning and corporate event management. Book a free consultation to discuss the setting and support that suit your event.

Questions
Gloucestershire Wedding Planning FAQs
What does a wedding planner in Gloucestershire actually do?
We take on as much or as little as you need — from full end-to-end planning (vision, budget, venue, suppliers, logistics and on-the-day management) to on-the-day coordination that lets you and your family relax and enjoy the day. As a Gloucestershire-based planner, we bring deep local knowledge of the county's venues and suppliers to every wedding.
How much does a wedding planner cost in Gloucestershire?
We charge clear fixed prices: Full Wedding Planning £1,995, Partial Wedding Planning £995 and Wedding Day Coordination £495, with styling and sourcing services from £295. Each package has a defined scope, your initial consultation is free, and anything beyond the package is priced separately and agreed in writing.
Which areas of Gloucestershire do you cover?
All of it. We're based in Minsterworth, near Gloucester, and plan weddings across the whole county — Cheltenham, the Cotswolds, Stroud, Tewkesbury, Cirencester, the Forest of Dean and everywhere in between.
Do you work with venues across Gloucestershire?
Yes. We work with venues right across the county — from country houses and castles like Sudeley and Berkeley to marquees in private gardens and riverside settings by the Severn. If you haven't chosen a venue yet, we'll help you find the perfect one.
When should we book you for our Gloucestershire wedding?
For full planning, 12–18 months ahead is ideal. For on-the-day coordination we're often booked a few months — sometimes just weeks — before the wedding. Whatever your timeline, get in touch and we'll tell you honestly how we can help.
