Our top wedding planners and floral artists don’t just present beautiful wedding memories. They also create fantasies with luscious blooms, sparkling details and stunning colours. Here are 5 top Singapore wedding planners and stylists for the ultra-glam wedding of your wildest fantasies.
From an elegant wedding to fun, chic parties and glamorous celebrations, it is a couple’s love story that usually inspires The Wedding Entourage to create the most unique memories.
Conceptualising and planning a wedding based on a couple’s fantasy is about creating an entire visual experience for the newly-weds and their guests that’ll make them say, ‘Wow! We didn’t think that was possible’,” says principal wedding planner Caroline Yakop-Lim, who specialises in lavish weddings, with her team.
She works alongside senior wedding planner Emmalyne Pang, who produces classy, romantic affairs, and wedding planner Chelsea Low, who loves experimenting with fresh ideas and preppy, fun styles.
“Before we get started, we find out all we can about the couples we work with, including their likes, hobbies and, most importantly, their love story.
We also make sure we understand the priorities of both people because an effective design conversation is crucial to translating their vision of a visually stunning, personal experience.”
“From Instagram posts, brides magazines and blogs to the latest fashion trends, as well as arts and film festivals, and our own travels, inspiration is all around us!
Being with like-minded creative talents allows a vibrant exchange of ideas and resources that really contribute to the cohesive and pleasing look we want for our clients.”
“The entire celebration should look and feel like they own it. Everything from the invitations to the programme and the reception should be infused with details unique to them.
Each fantasy, however crazy it might sound, is an inspiration for the vision we create for our clients.”

Whether it’s jazzed up, rustic or something downright fabulous, unforgettable events by Inside The Knot usually start with an inspiring, simple idea.
“Before we get started on any wedding plans, we sit down with couples and have them share what their dream wedding would be like,” says founder and creative director Rubina Tiyu.

“Then our team brainstorms. Once we have something concrete and their approval, we get the bride and groom involved in some of the creative process.
Planning a wedding is very personal, so we all need to be on the same track.”
“One of the most memorable ones we did took place at Chijmes in 2016. Inside The Knot was the first to introduce fairy lights along the Chijmes walkway, and it’s become one of the most popular set-ups ever!
I am really thankful to that couple for trusting us with our plan.”

“What keeps us going? Being inspired by new ideas everyday – from our past work, things that surround us and what we see online.
Even working with our partners can be an exciting experience as we share tips and talk about how we can make our events even better.
Once everything is in place, all our couples need to do is sit back and watch their dream become a reality.”

An award-winning floral studio renowned for its originality, Boenga Flowers & Designs prides itself on providing only the most personalised service.
“Before I conceptualise any wedding arrangements, I sit down with a couple and ask questions like what they didn’t like at weddings they’d been to, what their favourite colours are, and their vision of a dream wedding.
Listening to what they have to say and how they interact helps me to incorporate their personalities into my work,” says Harjianto Setiawan, Boenga Flowers & Designs founder and principal floral designer.
“I have always loved floristry and my passion is my profession. I would describe Boenga’s trademark as flamboyant and undeniably recognisable.”
“Wedding flowers are one of the most crucial boxes to tick off your wedding day to-do checklist.
The arrangements you choose set the tone and style of your big day.”
“Compliments after a job well done make us happy, and drive us to do even better the next time.”

“We offer advice and help edit ideas to ensure the entire look and feel for their celebration is cohesive and consistent.

“As creative people, my team and I are always looking for unique and interesting new ideas.
Many times, however, they come from clients, who appreciate the unique concepts we put forward, like the acrylic aisle with fairy lights we did for a wedding last year.
Instead of hanging them overhead, we put the lights under the acrylic walkway. Guests kept bumping into each other because they kept looking down at the lights!”
