Handcrafted Weddings

I had the pleasure of working alongside Odette from Handcrafted weddings on a wedding for Mr & Mrs Le'Aupepe a very busy working couple that were married at the beautiful L’Orangerie venue in Tauranga. Odette made the day seamless! From creating the complete timeline of events with so many adjustments and fine tuning before the wedding day she had everything timed perfectly! On the wedding day Odette took care of setting up the venue decor and ensured everything was in its place before the wedding guests arrived. Should you a couple who are just too busy with family and work then reach out to Odette to help with your wedding or event.. Great Service, Very Professional and Highly recommended!

Can't recommend her enough. We were lucky enough to have Odette as our wedding day coordinator. Honestly she was my calming nerve on the day, esp because we had forecast thunderstorm! She kept my nerves at bay and took over when I was getting overwhelmed. She worked well with the venue to coordinate all the other vendors which meant that we could enjoy our day, and we totally did.Thank you so much Odette!

We hired Odette to be our wedding coordinator and she did a phenomenal job! Odette went above and beyond to make the day special and was always behind the scenes making sure things ran smoothly - in fact, she was pivotal to the day. Not only did Odette capably coordinate people and handle logistics, she also brought all sorts of valuable experience, ideas and special touches which elevated the day. Odette knew exactly how to set up and optimise the wedding space to make the ceremony flow, coordinated the vendors, kept things running to time, made sure the grazing table looked spectacular, and was the go-to person whenever anyone had a question. This was all done after being hired on short notice. And on top of all that, she is so friendly and wonderful to deal with. We are so appreciative of Odette and can’t recommend her enough!

We got married on the 22/10/22 and the whole day would not have been possible without Odette- she is amazing. She helped us from the early stages of planning- recommending and selecting vendors, styling and all the on day coordination and set up. She made sure my morning was spent relaxing with a glass of bubbles :), along with a celebratory glass at the end of the ceremony. The list of what Odette helped us with is enormous and we are are so grateful! A wedding planner may not be high on peoples priority list when planning a wedding but Odette was worth every cent and our best vendor. Can not recommend her highly enough
