Hello, I'm Natalie!
I'm a Wedding & Events Planner based in beautiful St Ives Cornwall and i LOVE to plan and design!
I feel extremely lucky to of been brought up in such a stunning part of the world. It has elements of a tropical feel, with the white sandy beaches, turquoise ocean and even the odd palm tree or two! It's many a couple's dream to tie the knot here, with so many venues at your finger tips to choose from, not forgetting the incredible sea views.
I've always had a huge passion for creativity, design and styling. Starting with my love for Art as a child, through to studying Art, Graphic Design and photography in college with a dream to become a Graphic Designer in the future. Once completing my course and leaving with a National diploma in hand, i knew it wasn't the route for me and i needed to be more hands on with my creativity.
This then led me into working as a stylist in a top retail high street store. My creativity flourished, from being a personal shopper, to styling windows, mannequins and various seasonal displays throughout the store.
Designing my own beach wedding along with my sisters boho inspired wedding, is where my passion for wedding planning and styling really took off.
This then evolved into Natalie Blake Wedding Design, which is now where my heart happily lies.
There's nothing i love more than bringing my clients visions to life, adding to their love story and seeing the joy on their faces making lasting memories on their special day.
If on the occasion i'm not planning or coordinating weddings and marriage proposals, you will find me with salty hair and sand between my toes with my beautiful family on one of our Cornish beaches.

All the little fine details surrounding your special day are as equally important.
Full Wedding Planning & Design
For those that need complete guidance from the start of planning, to on the day coordination and set up.
Price is dependent on level of assistance required.
This is a great option if you’re a bit overwhelmed with all the planning, and really need some guidance and advice all the way through, every step of the way.
Usually, we would start to work on the planning about a year before the wedding and would spend between 250-300 hours on it.
We can be as involved as much or as little as you would like.
We would work together to list out the areas you would want to take care of yourself or you can just sit back, leave it in our safe hands to take good care of, and be totally stress-free!
We can take care of
everything from sourcing and booking suppliers, dress fitting appointments, sourcing decor, creating fabulous bespoke
Pinterest boards for inspiration and much much more... but most importantly you will have unlimited phone call and email support as and when needed.
This full planning package also includes one of our fun Hen Crafting Workshops for you to enjoy with your besties (There’s more information further down on our website about these) and it also includes On the day Coordination if required at your venue.
Partial Wedding Planning

Price is dependent on level of assistance required.
This includes 3 months blocked together, in which we can focus on any key areas where you need our expertise.
This may be sourcing suppliers for decor and props, tying up loose ends, bringing everything together and calling around all suppliers booked to confirm they are all organised for the big day.
This service can be tailored to suit your requirements.
Wedding Day Coordination
If you're confident about planning your big day, we can just be there on the day to help set up your venue, and coordinate tirelessly making sure everything goes to plan throughout the day.
On the day Coordination is great for the reassurance to couples to know that the running of their special day is in our safe capable hands, leaving them relaxed and stress free.

" Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value
Natalie was the best person for the occasion! Obviously it was my husband (then fiancé) who had organised the whole thing with Natalie but the whole experience was so much more beautiful because of Natalie's amazing work in giving us the best engagement set up!! It was absolutely beautiful and literally took both of our breathe away as my husband was not quite sure what to expect as he’d let Natalie do her thing and it was above and beyond what I dreamed proposal would be and so happy Natalie was the one to provide that service for us! Natalie is very responsive and so kind to communicate with, I would recommend her to anyone even those who don’t live in Cornwall (we’re from Rugby)! We would give Natalie a 10/10 for everything ☺️ Thank you once again Natalie, you’re wonderful at what you do - God bless! "
Louise & Henry
"Natalie literally made our dream wedding a reality and so much more! We live 300 miles away and wanted a small intimate ceremony in St Ives with just us and our two children... Natalie made us feel so special, the mood boards she created for us were exactly what we imagined they would be and she just 'got us'! So professional, so down to earth and so so talented! She has amazing vision and went above and beyond to view our venue when we couldnt and suggest how to make our day even more special. From start to finish, she took all the stress away and really let us enjoy our day. If you want a perfect Cornish wedding or proposal, I could not recommend Natalie enough!"
Stuti
"My boyfriend planned a surprise proposal for me in St Ives with the help of Natalie and her crew. The whole thing was completely dreamy right from the location, to the time, to the setup. With a sunset view on a cliff by the water, the beautiful setup with lights, candles and rugs was just so perfect!!! I honestly could not have imagined a better setting to conclude our engagement in. A big hug and thank you to Natalie for making this milestone so memorable as well capturing it the right way for us! Highly highly recommend her for any similar events!"
James & Dadrian
"Natalie helped us with with our wedding design, sourcing of suppliers and set up for the day. To say she was a godsend would be an understatement, she was both available whenever we needed her and prompt with schedules and timetables. Her skill and personable nature enabled a trouble free wedding design process from beginning to end, and we would not hesitate in recommended her to other people looking for help with their wedding design. To top it all off her services I found were not only high quality but also good value."
