We had the incredible fortune of working with Bek Burrows to plan our elopement wedding in Tasmania this July, and we can’t recommend her enough! From our very first conversation, Bek’s passion and expertise were evident. She listened to our vision and made it a reality, all while adding her unique flair.
Bek's attention to detail was remarkable. She took care of every aspect, from finding the perfect location amidst Tasmania’s stunning landscapes to coordinating all the logistics. We felt completely at ease, knowing we were in such capable hands.
What truly set Bek apart was her ability to infuse warmth and personality into the planning process. She made it fun and stress-free, and her creative ideas elevated our day in ways we couldn’t have imagined.
On the day itself, everything flowed seamlessly. We were able to focus on each other and enjoy the moment, thanks to Bek’s meticulous planning.
Paul was also a wonderful presence. While Bek led the way, Paul was there to assist, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. His support and calm demeanour made the day even more enjoyable, and we appreciated having him as part of our experience.
If you’re looking for someone who is not only a talented planner but also genuinely cares about making your special day perfect, look no further than Bek Burrows. Our elopement was everything we dreamed of and more, and we are forever grateful for her help in making it happen!

Release the doves...
We met with several wedding planners and stylists before meeting Bek and Paul.
But you know those moments, when you meet someone, and you know immediately 'these are our people'. That was our experience of Bek and Paul, the banter and professionalism came in equal parts from day one.
The thought, care, and attention to detail was present throughout. We’re biased but we couldn’t have imagined a better wedding day, and we feel that is largely due to what Bek and Paul created.
Styling, planning, guidance, recommendations, care, wrangling, dancing, laughing and more wrangling.
They made our special day extra special.

PIERMONT, EAST COAST TASMANIA
Bek and Paul absolutely nailed the brief for our intimate elopement. Simple, relaxed and all about our immediate families. I felt they understood our vibe from the very first phone call and recommended suppliers that suited us perfectly!
Bek went above and beyond, surprising us with a flower crown for our 4yo daughter and flower corsages for the whole family, she even organised sparkly apple juice so our daughter could be involved in the celebration drinks.
We were so happy to have Bek and Paul working with us, it took away the hours upon hours of research and logistics with suppliers, it made the actual day ridiculously relaxing. In what could have been a disaster for most with a last-minute change of celebrant, Bek and Paul already had someone else lined up and locked in before we even knew about the hiccup.
We really can't thank you enough for allowing our wedding day to be as stress-free, enjoyable and beautiful as it could possibly be.

Bek and Paul deserve more than a 5/5, they exceeded every expectation and are undoubtedly the best in the biz. They are a truly incredible duo and I miss seeing their names in my inbox now the wedding is over!
The organisation, creativity, passion, communication, professionalism and flair made our wedding even more incredible than we could have imagined.
Beyond hitting the brief, Bek added so many amazing little touches and surprise elements that made things even more incredible and reflect her incredible eye for detail.
Having the Burrows in your corner is a guarantee for the perfect wedding, and for you to be able to leave behind any worries and just lean into the joy of your wedding and time with your partner.
We couldn't recommend them more and will be raving about them for years to come.

As a newlywed couple, Eddy and I cannot thank Bek and Paul enough for the incredible job they did in planning and executing our dream wedding in Tasmania. Coming from outside the area, we were unsure about how we would navigate all the details and logistics, but their expertise and local knowledge made the entire experience seamless and truly unforgettable.
From the moment we first connected with Bek and Paul, we were struck by their professionalism, warmth, and genuine passion for creating magical moments. Being unfamiliar with the area, we relied heavily on Bek and Paul's expertise to source the best vendors and suppliers. From the florist who created the most exquisite arrangements to the caterer's who provided the best local produce Tassy has to offer. They effortlessly coordinated with all the vendors, ensuring everyone was on the same page and working seamlessly together.
Throughout the planning process, Bek and Paul were incredibly responsive and attentive. They promptly answered our questions, provided regular updates, and guided us through each decision. Their calm and reassuring demeanour helped alleviate any stress, allowing us to fully enjoy the journey towards our special day.
Furthermore, I must mention that our wedding day was nothing short of perfection, including the weather which helped showcase Tasmania's natural beauty in all its splendour. Bek and Paul had not only orchestrated an impeccable event but had also managed to arrange for a picture-perfect day that exceeded our wildest dreams.
We were overjoyed to hear from our guests that our wedding was hailed as the best they had ever attended. Bek and Paul had truly set the stage for an unforgettable party, ensuring that everyone had a blast and danced the night away.
If you are considering a wedding in Tassie, we wholeheartedly recommend Bek and Paul as your wedding planners. Their local expertise, meticulous planning, and unwavering dedication will make your wedding a cherished memory that you will treasure for a lifetime. They transformed our vision into a reality, and we will be forever be grateful for the wonderful memories they helped create.

My partner and I decided to hold our special day down in Tasmania, and after doing some research we were thrilled to be able to have Bek enlisted as our planner. From day one, we felt vindicated in our decision.
Ongoing discussions with Bek about venues, florists, hair and make up artists resulted in us being connected with contractors who were able to make our special day exactly what we had imagined.
Everything we wanted - every detail - came to life and we couldn’t have envisaged such a perfect day and setting.
Bek was patient and calm in her dealing with us, and the seamless execution of the day is a testament to her hard work and commitment to delivering our dream day.
Thank you so much Bek & Paul for giving us a day that we will never, ever forget!

MONA, HOBART
We absolutely loved working with Bek Burrows Styling and Events for our wedding at MONA in Hobart!
From our initial call with Bek and Paul to discuss ideas for our wedding we felt listened to and supported. They came up with so many incredible ideas for styling a day that really reflected us as a couple and suited the venue of MONA too. They also recommended and introduced us to many incredible local vendors which was hugely important as we were planning our wedding from Sydney.
Bek and Paul were extremely professional and easy to communicate with the entire time we worked with them. This included navigating the pandemic! In a time that was so difficult for wedding vendors they remained kind and patient while we rescheduled our wedding and then worked with us and all of our vendors for our new date. They truly went above and beyond in the lead up to our wedding day making last minute changes to the seating plan with guests dropping out due to Covid!
The florals and styling were breathtaking, creative and really made a feature of beautiful local produce! The sculptural ceremony florals blew us both away and my bouquet was a dream! We received so many compliments from our guests about the stunning florals and styling throughout the venue and people loved the beautiful menus handwritten by Bek. We were confident that Bek and Paul would create magic but seeing everything come together for our day truly exceeded our expectations!
Bek and Paul’s attention to detail is flawless and they were a joy to work with! I’d highly recommend working with them if you’re looking for your Tasmanian wedding to be both beautiful and stress free!!

SATELLITE ISLAND, TASMANIA
WOW - I hit the jackpot with BEK BURROWS! She is THE most wonderful, creative, talented, resourceful, reliable & generous professional - just book her, & you will end up with what you are dreaming of & more! PLUS, you will have fun working with her & she will help keep stress levels to a minimum.
Mine was the smallest of elopements, involving only my partner Wayne & I. I had booked Satellite Island for the venue, and it was owner, Kate Alstergren, who recommended Bek to me. Only planning the simplest of ceremonies, I hadn't even thought about such a role. I am incredibly grateful that I changed my mind!
RESOURCES: In a flash, Bek understood exactly what I had in mind, & helped me pull together the Dream Team: Maria Bond, the Marriage Celebrant from Heaven; Nina Hamilton, the Wedding Photographer who has touched my heart with her lens magic; & Tamsin Nolan who made me glow for that lens.
COMMUNICATION: Bek was super responsive, & even though a low key event, she was attentive & connected all through. She helped enormously with my OUTFIT, given I was eloping & this was therefore a complete secret. I needed advice on my dress & shoes, & her feedback was so on point. Bek even loaned me the most stunning Vintage fox fur coat to wear - how about that for unheard of generosity?! I did not want anything major for FLOWERS, & being early May there was little to choose from - yet Bek was constantly on the lookout, sending me photos of orange Dahlias she thought might be an option, & always leaving me feeling reassured that no matter what, she would make me something wonderful on the day. I always felt confident I could rely on Bek - she is the type of person who exudes an ability to deliver, regardless. Sure enough, she turned up on the day with the loveliest bunch of Banksias, plus a selection of beautiful ribbon. She also made a lovely Buttonhole for Wayne.
Bek added in big ways to our celebration, with some seemingly small yet not so small touches. Things we hadn't even discussed, like our HAND-WRITTEN WEDDING VOWS. Wayne & I composed these ourselves, & they were printed out to read from. Bek took the initiative on the day, to write them in her most devine Calligraphy-like handwriting, on beautiful ribboned parchment paper. Oh my! She also wrote us the sweetest congratulatory note on a gumleaf, & just left it on the dining table for us to find at the end of the day. SO lovely!

THALIA HAVEN, EAST COAST TASMANIA
Every part of our wedding was seamless and magical, all thanks to Bek and Paul.
They are THE dream team of wedding organisers.
As my partner and I (who are based in Brisbane) had chosen Tasmania for our wedding, we were seeking someone who could offer support on the ground with all the things that needed organising.
Bek and Paul did exactly that but SO much more. From the moment I spoke to Bek on the phone, she completely understood what my partner and I envisioned for our day and I immediately trusted that she would create a beautiful and seamless day for us.
Every single supplier Bek recommended was perfect, from our very special venue, beautiful celebrant, hair and makeup artists, our photographer, as well as our amazing chef. Bek and Paul styled our dining table beautifully, with candles, flowers and hand-crafted menus.
Everything ran seamlessly on the day of the wedding, allowing my partner and I to be relaxed and present to our special day.
We feel incredibly grateful that we had Bek and Paul be a part of our day and highly recommend them.

Where to begin!
We had the most amazing Elopement wedding at the Burrows, organised and styled by Bek + Paul.
From the outset they were just wonderful to work with and really understood our requirements and the aim of the 'special day' that we wanted to achieve. Throughout the whole wedding day, they made sure everything ran smoothly, was set up and even prepared the most amazing grazing board with Tassie bubbles post ceremony!
The Burrows was a beautiful stay and and felt so homely and the ceremony overlooking Freycinet was picturesque.
We would highly recommend Bek + Paul and we are already excited to come back and stay at The Burrows!
Thanks so much.

Words fail to express how amazing Bek and Paul are. They created an incredibly magical day for us that was also unbelievably stress free! We have been recommending them to all our friends and family.
Bek and Paul made the whole process smooth and seamless ( despite being an interstate, outdoor wedding in a remote location) giving us options whilst not being overwhelming. They were flexible and worked within our budget whilst still able to create the most beautiful gorgeous wedding!
Bek is a true artist, every detail from the floral arrangements to the hand written menus were absolutely divine, and because Bek and Paul do it all themselves it fits and flows perfectly. The communication was excellent and they understood what we wanted instantly.
What made Bek and Paul truly special was how much they really cared and how they went above and beyond for us.
We unfortunately had to delay our wedding twice due to lockdowns and Bek supported us throughout, liaising with vendors and helped us make the right decisions for us.
We truly felt that we had a friend and an ally. Bek- our fairy godmother, you are truly one of a kind, thank you for making our dream wedding come true.

THE OLD FARM, TASMANIA
Bek & Paul are incredibly passionate about their work and went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was unique and authentic.
They know Tasmania like the back of their hand and understand the intricacies of every venue very well. It meant we did not have to stress about anything on the day, since they shared our vision and have the prowess to bring it to life.
We had many requests and changes of plans, including extra flowers, weather challenges and even a request to source a last-minute videographer. Yet they helped us find solutions without a hassle with clear communication throughout, ensuring we were all on the same page.
We cannot thank Bek + Paul and their team enough for their wonderful work!
CHRISTINE + OTTO
PUMPHOUSE POINT, LAKE ST.CLAIR
We had the most amazing wedding at Pumphouse Pump thanks to Bek and Paul.
The location is breath taking and perfect for an elopement but Bek's team create the magic. We live in Scotland and from the moment we contacted them we knew we had found the right people to help us get organised.
We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them and laughed a lot on our video calls. They have a wonderful sense of fun and good humour at the same time as being very organised and detail oriented.
They are good listeners and we quickly felt we could trust them to deliver our perfect day. They also have great local suppliers, providing introductions and managing timelines to ensure everything fits together on the day.
Bek is very creative and made the most beautiful floral bouquet and pinhole of local flowers and sea thistles to give us a connection to home. Paul helped us organise some extra treats and also arrived with fur coats and a table and chair which he carried to the edge of Lake St Clair so we would have the most dramatic backdrop for our photos.
The day was emotional, intimate and perfect. We all cried and laughed a lot. Most importantly it would not have been possible without Paul and Bek and we were honoured to have them as our witnesses.
We cannot recommend them enough to anyone (young or not so young) wanting to plan a wedding (big or small) in the wonderful Tasmania (town or wilderness).
Huge thank you to Bek, Paul

I can not recommend Bek and Paul highly enough. The pair took our limited inspo pictures and ran with it – creating something that was beyond my partner and my wild dreams.
The incredible level of detail in every area still makes me smile and we continually have guests asking to pass on details.
You might think planning a wedding amid a pandemic was tough? Not for us, as we had Bek and Paul. Through every hurdle, Bek or Paul was there with sound advice, knowledge and a plan B that would be like most people’s plan A.
To the ultimate dynamic duo, thank you for making our wedding the success it was.

Bek, Paul and their staff are such an incredible team and created the most magical wedding day for us. Bek provided us with invaluable advice in the lead up to the day, found us the best ever venue and recommended the most incredible suppliers to us.
On the day, Bek and Paul created the most beautiful place settings, signage and FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS (not to mention bower) that you could hope for. Truly it was beyond anything we could have imagined.
Our day was so special and better even than we hoped for. Thank you both!!!!

We cannot recommend Bek and Paul's services highly enough!
They were our first wedding vendor we picked and it was the best decision we made. They went absolutely above and beyond for us in every respect and our day wouldn't have been what it was without them.
We trusted them completely and their work was even better than we could've imagined. They took all of the stress out of the day and nothing fazed them. They were so lovely to work with always - it truly felt like we were part of a team.
They are the best in the business and we're so lucky to have had them helping us!

From the very first initial correspondence, Bek and Paul were nothing but professional, friendly and full of ideas. Bek also made amazing recommendations for other vendors in Hobart. I was blown away with the level of detail that was included in our concept designs, and I knew from very early on that I didn't have to worry about anything, as we were in very safe hands.
On the day of the wedding, even my husband (who had zero to do with the styling and flowers) could not believe how amazing the room looked, and we received endless comments about how beautiful everything looked.
Bek went above and beyond to secure the bridal bouquet of my dreams, which I was so thankful for. Paul did an outstanding job with the lighting, which really made the dance floor a bit more special and together they created an epic installation on the dance floor which just looked phenomenal.
Huge thanks to Bek and Paul for all their hard work, endless ideas and true professionalism - we could not have been any more in love with how everything turned out!
EL + SUE
PUMPHOUSE POINT
To say that we are grateful to and for Bek and Paul would be an understatement.
Tasmania is our special place, and when we decided to get married the destination was a no brainer. It was always going to be Pumphouse Point at Lake St Clair. The thought of planning a wedding from another state we feared would be a logistical nightmare.
We spoke to Bek and within two minutes, we knew she was the perfect person to bring to life the wedding we had envisioned but not yet fully conceived. Bek listened and unapologetically redirected when it was required. She was a pool of endless knowledge who connected us to services that not only met our brief, but were perfect.
Our wedding was everything we could have hoped for and exceeded our expectations.
The journey of pulling off the day was not easy, but despite the bumpy roads Bek never wavered in her promise to deliver not only the very best wedding imaginable but also the wedding that was in a word…OURS. Compromising was not an option in the execution of what would be the best day of our lives. It was AWESOME!
From building the dance floor, hanging of lights, floral arrangements, calligraphy and entertainment the whole family was on board. Oscar sang during the ceremony and Poppy helped with the details, making the moment, all the more special.
Bek, Paul and their whole crew made the weekend wedding festivities seamless. If there were issues, we didn’t know about it until well after the wedding. Bek is a perfect combination of professional and personal. Professional in executing your perfect day, and personal in not only hearing the words you say but what you don’t say to ensure your wedding, is all you’ve ever dreamed it would be.
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much Bek and Paul for bringing together a wedding beyond our wildest expectations! Without you we wouldn't have met and been connected to people that played such a big part of our day.
We love the way you work together, Bek with your creative flair and phenomenal expertise and Paul your practical ability to make things happen with zero fuss, makes the ultimate team.
You two are truly experts – almost speaking a special wedding language that no one else will ever master the way you do.
It’s beyond what we ever imagined and we are so grateful to have met and worked with such wonderful people!

MONA
Bek styled our wedding in October 2018. She was the dream to work with. I loved everything about her work but in particular:
1. Bek was invested in working out what we wanted. I had a long list of what I definitely didn't want and a good idea of the general vibe I wanted. Bek was enthusiastic about my ideas and brilliant at teasing out the details.
2. Creativity - Bek suggested lots of ideas that were fresh and original and not straight from Pinterest.
3. Organisation - I am completely useless at being organised and I felt super chilled that everything was under control throughout the process. (I'm so organised that I just thought to do this on our 1st anniversary!)
4. Process - The timeline/process/payments were clear and easy to follow. Bek and Paul made the actual day completely stress free for us so we were able to enjoy all of it.
5. Flowers - Bek made me the most stunning headpieces, that I know I couldn't have sourced anywhere else. They were an artistic and mechanical feat, and I continue to get compliments on them a year later!
6. Team - Bek works with an amazing team - including her husband Paul, and gave me the inside tip on the best vendors
7. MONA - If you're considering MONA as your venue then Bek is your go-to - she knows the place inside out and has a great working relationship wth the staff.
Ultimately I can't recommend Bek Burrows styling highly enough. Particularly if you're looking for wedding styling that is completely personal to you, original and frankly cool AF. Add to that a stress-free dream of a day. Thanks Bek!
JONO + RUSSELL
MONA
Bek and her small but dedicated team ensured that we had the perfect day, and given we were coming from interstate, wedding experience in Hobart.
Our engagement with Bek began at a stage where all we knew was we wanted to have our wedding in Tasmania.
From there, we started a journey to find the perfect location. With inside knowledge on venues and advice from Bek we ultimately chose to have our wedding at MONA.
Throughout our time working with Bek she listened, considered, clarified and made excellent recommendations on suppliers (including locations for guests to stay, eat, get dry cleaning and get hair done), theming, flowers and stationery. From that first meeting to the big day Bek was on hand, available when needed and proactive (particularly on the day) in making sure everything was perfect.
Her execution on the day of the florals, theming and organisation were meticulous and often without being seen! The styling, floral arrangements and stationery were stunning and perfectly fitted the location and our personal preferences on flowers (no natives!)
On top of this ability to deliver a perfect wedding, Bek and Paul are always calm, collected and on your side throughout.
We do not hesitate in recommending Bek, and in fact have suggested people get married in Tasmania just so they can work with her!

Bek and Paul were amazing right from the get-go.
We always wanted to have our wedding back home in Tassie and knew that we'd have a challenge planning it all the way from where we were living in Amsterdam. As soon as we met them they just took all the stress out of our planning and we immediately saw everything come together.
Bek was like a wizard knowing what suppliers to engage with who would not only do an amazing job but also gave us the creative freedom to express ourselves. Bek kept us regularly updated by email or Skype, and was truly invaluable - she found us a replacement photographer at the last minute immediately, with no fuss.
And the end result of the setting and the visual wow factor was above and beyond what we could have imagined.
They went the extra mile, with calmness, a smile and we couldn't have asked for more.

PIERMONT
We first came across Bek Burrows whilst searching for venues to hold our intimate elopement in Tasmania. I remember reaching out to her to find out exactly what a stylist + planner did. After that initial phone call, I just knew that we needed someone of her calibre, creativity and knowledge to help create a weekend to remember.
Bek's knowledge of Tasmania - the venues, suppliers, dos and dont’s - was so helpful when planning a holiday & elopement for 20 guests, with everyone travelling interstate or internationally. It was easy to place our full trust in Bek & Paul because they just oozed confidence and wholly understood what we were trying to achieve. I knew they would create something special on the day - and boy were our expectations exceeded! Planning our elopement was a wonderful experience - Bek and Paul made the process so easy. Every question was answered, guidance given on our wine/food selection, restaurant recommendations for Hobart & where we should have our honeymoon!
The day itself was the best day of our life.
The whole day went so smoothly - not a single thing flustered us, all our family members could relax and enjoy the day. We knew that Bek and Paul had it all under control. Seeing the dining room in all it's glory with every little detail was truly spectacular. I knew it was going to be fabulous but it was SO much more!
Bek and Paul are much more than wedding stylists + event planners - they are magicians bringing to life the love you have for each other in beautiful physical form. In the flowers, menu design, suggested suppliers, lights, furs, place settings - it all so eloquently and magically expressed who we are & why we were getting married.
We are so thankful we found Bek & Paul.

WINES FOR JOANIE
From the very first phone call with Bek, we knew we needed her involved in our big day.
We left Bek to do what she does best. Without really any guidance from us, Bek and her team created a masterpiece and truly exceeded our expectations. Seeing the barn all set up for us, with the hundreds of beautiful flowers brought a tear to our eyes. We have received so much positive feedback from our friends and family on the extensive amount of work that both her and her husband Paul put into our barn design, beautiful floral arrangements, handcrafted menus and custom lighting. Everyone was so impressed!
There was only 1 request we had for our wedding, Espresso Martinis! Bek and Paul went above and beyond and sourced the coffee from a local cafe, brought in the best bar staff and even had a go at working their cocktail shaking muscles in fulfilling 140 cocktails which was an absolute hit.
Bek and Paul think of everything. Their attention to detail is second to none. Bek recommended our amazing local caterer and suppliers, our dressmaker, created a timeline from start to finish, somehow sourced a make up artist last minute and surprised both us and our guests with parasols to escape the Tassie sun. We still can't believe how relaxed we felt, it meant we could truly enjoy our day. We feel like we really had the best of Tassie on display thanks to Bek and Paul's local knowledge and expertise.
We feel so lucky that Bek and Paul were part of our special day and we cannot thank them enough.
We are excited to see all the magic they create for other lucky couples that have the dream team onboard!

Since both my husband and I (plus many of our guests) work in events, we were after something pretty special. Bek and Paul delivered beyond our wildest dreams. Their ability, style and attention to detail is truly world class.
From the first phone call we knew we were in safe hands. From sourcing a unique venue, to bringing in the best suppliers to anticipating our every need during the planning process and on the day, they really had it covered. It took all the of stress and all of the guess work out of planning an interstate wedding. We were actually at a local pub the afternoon beforehand with friends because we had literally nothing else that needed doing.
Our wedding was relaxed, elegant, unique, stunningly styled and represented us as individuals. I wouldn't change a thing.
If you're planning an event in Tassie, call them. Call them now. Call them yesterday.

As most brides know, invariably something will go wrong in the lead up to, or on, your wedding day that will need to be solved. As such, sometimes there is no such thing as a dream wedding - but there is such a thing as your dream wedding team. If you have the right team around you, such as Bek and her peers, we guarantee your problems will turn into positives or you won’t even know what went wrong in the first place!
Bek and Paul’s caring and considerate nature, combined with their innovative, can-do, anythings possible attitude, are the utmost professionals. They are the right measure of both problem solvers and idea generators, and provided us a wedding day that we will never forget. From the gorgeous styling in the calligraphy, linen and floristry, to the inventive options Bek discussed with us for the ceremony and reception logistics, to the slight touches that made our day quintessentially us, Bek made us feel we were in safe hands from day one. And, this shows in the numerous providers who are keen to come along with her for the ride. We met the most amazing people through Bek, and that in itself demonstrates just how valuable she is.
Bek and Paul, we cannot thank you enough for the guidance, hard-work and determination you put into our wedding day. You worked countless hours and brainstormed numerous ideas, and quite simply provided us a wonderful day that we will never forget. We feel so lucky to have found you, and look forward to reminiscing on our day with you both for years to come over a glass of red and some good Tassie cheese! We can’t wait to see all the future weddings you create - we know they will be exquisite.

In Bek we trust.
When we decided to get married in Tasmania and use only Tasmanian suppliers we dedicated hours of research to find the best combination of stylist, venue, photographer, caterer, and music. One name consistently rose through the cacophony of sales pitches and enamoured us with her iconic calligraphy, florals, and aesthetic: Bek Burrows.
Bek is the most prominent wedding stylist in Tasmania and her availability (or lack there of) is a reflection of this. We wrote Bek an email almost a year from our proposed date and were fortunate enough to secure one of the two available weekends she had remaining in an 18-month time frame. We wrote to her introducing ourselves, our values, and what we felt was important to us in celebrating our wedding day. Our openness and honesty was reciprocated by Bek, who made strong recommendations for suppliers - some of whom we had already flagged and others that were unfamiliar. Bek is the greatest billboard for Tasmania, utilising only the best local suppliers, as was the case with our florals, hair (Jamie Anderson) and photography (Jonathan Wherett) and supporting some of the brightest emerging talents, such as our caterers (Feast Tasmania), videographers (Light Noise Films) and music (Foley Brothers).
The Venue: we approached Bek with a particular venue in mind. Bek openly disclosed that she would no longer be able to create that same aesthetic at that venue and recommended another option, Clarendon in Northern Tasmania. Clarendon is a hertiage-listed homestead that would not have initially come to mind as a wedding venue, until now. Bek harnessed the grandeur of the house and the majesty of the walled-gardens to create a wedding befitting the pages of a fairy tale.
When we met Bek, Paul and Jonathan Wherrett (Photographer) at Clarendon, there was a palpable energy that we fed from. They took us through the countless spaces and we discussed the different permutations of ceremony, reception and dancefloor, each with a little more excitement until we found our perfect spaces. Bek wanted to create a sense of surprise and allure for our guests as they entered the different stages of our wedding all the while maintaining flow.
Design: Bek thinks of everything. She executed our aesthetic with precision and meticulousness. She designed the invitations with the personalised menus in mind to continue the motif. She coined the phrase "dinner and dancing under the stars", which encapsulated our entire evening. Her florals were beautiful, generous, tasteful, but she also planned around Feast Tasmania's bountiful dinner, which occupied most of our table (as we had hoped). Her flowers were locally-sourced, small-batch and radiated the same honesty and connection to Tasmania that the entire wedding channeled. Leish had requested white hydrangeas in her bouquet as an homage to her late grandmother. Despite being late January and a freak heat wave in Tasmania, Bek did her very best to source them, including door-knocking the streets of Launceston, and in true Bek-style she delivered. Her calligraphy speaks for itself, adding a certain panache to all of the signage she produced (and sent on to us as mementos).
Collaboration: We presented Bek with a number of ideas and suggestions which were always welcome and Bek accommodated. She maintains this management style with all of her suppliers, welcoming their input and advice, to bring out the best in each to create the ideal wedding for her clients. She communicated with the MC to ensure that timings were met and was always easy to find should anything need clarification. Bek went beyond a coordinator and became a mentor and confidant in the final stages of the wedding. She made herself available to both of us to ensure that we approached the wedding day with calmness and excitement. This is something she doesn't list in her proposal or on her website but it had the most positive impact in the lead up to our day, for which we are grateful.
The Wedding: Reflecting on when we first viewed Clarendon, Bek was excited by the potential of the space and we were excited to see the finished product that Bek had envisaged. The wedding she orchestrated far surpassed all of our expectations. We garnered feedback from our guests about their first impressions of each space and the wedding in its entirety, and the most common adjectives were "majestic, enchanting, and beautiful". In fact, guests were identifying small pieces that reflected Bek's attention to detail that not even we had noticed, such as the flowers on the balcony as we made our now glamorous entrance (orchestrated by Bek and a complete surprise to us). That iconic long curved table that Paul custom-built to follow the curve of the front drive way, had never been done before. We trusted Bek and Paul's vision and their product was breath-taking. The checkered dance floor in the alcove of trees lit with festoon lights is a recurring image in our dreams. It was simply the most enchanting space, removing us from any reference to time and space, and transporting us to any place on Earth. It is difficult to articulate in words what Bek had created and only Jonathan Wherrett's photos and Light Noise Films' video do her work justice.
Bek Burrows was open and honest with us and we trusted her judgement. It was this trust that empowered her to produce a wedding that embodied all of the values we wrote to her about: family, love and laughter. She created the most magical and enchanting celebration of two people that anyone could envisage; and she did it by showcasing the finest that Tasmania has to offer.
In Bek we trusted and Bek delivered.

We cannot thank Bek & her team enough for the amazing work they put into our wedding!
Our vision was well and truly brought to life, from our gorgeous stationary with Bek's signature calligraphy to every single detail in our reception marquee. It's true that there will be things on the day that don't necessarily run to plan, but Bek & her team ensure the day is seamless, stunning and fun for everyone involved!
From travelling the state to source the last of the coral peonies, using a lighting fixture from her own home for our bridal table and creating the most stunning floral swing, every detail was executed beautifully.
Thank you Bek, Paul & team for turning the most freezing, wet, windy December day into our perfect wedding!

What a perfect day Bek created for Lucy and I.
From the very first day we both felt understood and cared for. Nothing was too big or small a request. Bek's advice, experience and impeccable taste was always available when and where we needed it.
Lucy and I had a vision for our wedding that Bek not only flawlessly delivered but exceeded in so many ways. Flowers, calligraphy, lighting, fabrics are such a small part of what she did for us. I'm sure not everything ran as smoothly as it appeared and having Bek there with us let Lucy and I relax and enjoy our day. We literally had the best day ever!
We cannot speak highly enough of everything Bek has done for us from start to finish. We will continue to sing her praises to anyone who will listen.
We feel we have new friends in Bek and Paul. Our only regret is that they were working and not guests at our wedding.
Thank you doesn't begin to express our wholehearted gratitude.
Sam and Lucy.

Bek was amazing! I couldn't have had the wedding I had envisioned with out her and her beautiful husband Paul. I am from Sydney and wanted to have my Wedding at MONA, Hobart. MONA recommended Bek to help me put all the pieces of the puzzle together. From the get go, I knew Bek and I would work well together. She is extremely creative and talented; from her beautiful floral styling to her gorgeous handwriting, everything was flawless. Her attention to detail is second to none. The venue looked spectacular!
Thank you Bek for being you! You are a real gem in Tassie and I had the best time working with you.

Bek, you created our dream wedding. I was so relieved to have your full assistance. You made organising every little detail a breeze! So passionate, attentive to detail and insightful towards what gems lie in Tasmania.
It is clear you have the best knowledge in this industry. Let's not forget how good you are at keeping secrets! Our helicopter ride with gourmet picnic and our arrival at Frogmore Creek Winery was truly amazing, and the biggest surprise for our guests!
Thank you Bek & Paul, and your amazing team. We will never forget what an extraordinary journey you took us on!

Bek helped to shape our day into more than we ever could have imagined! Without Bek's advice and guidance our day would not have been the same. Bek secured unique venues for both our wedding ceremony and reception.
The vendors she recommended were absolutely perfect. Our wedding invitations in particular were divine, Bek is one talented lady. From our first conversation Bek was professional but like a friend, enthusiastic but realistic, upfront and efficient to ensure what needed to be done was done with minimal stress.
I cannot recommend Bek's services highly enough. She takes the Zilla out of Bridezilla!!

What can we say! From the start Bek was incredible! Her commitment to our big day was awesome! She was easy get along with and easy to talk to. Bek did all of our invites in her beautiful calligraphy and her floral arranging was on point!
On the day she was there from Friday to Sunday now that's commitment! Her husband Paul was by her side the whole time and he is the icing on the cake! His hard work made the day a stress free experience. My wife only had to worry about getting there and made the day special for her with the no stress factor. Thanks again BB we couldn't imagine our day without you and your team there to guide and help us!
Love you long time

Bek and her team created the wedding of our dreams! Living in Melbourne, Bek organised everything seamlessly in Tasmania resulting in a very relaxed bride & groom. Bek styled the venue in way that was so beautiful and creative- all of our guests were blown away.
From the floral installations to the suggestions of who to use as a makeup artist and photographer- everything was so professional and perfect. I would highly recommend Bek to anyone thinking of having their wedding in beautiful Tasmania.

If you are looking for someone to help you create the most magical, unforgettable and stress-free wedding day, Bek Burrows is your girl!
From the get-go Bek was completely upfront and honest, went above and beyond to help us find a venue and supported our decisions and wishes throughout the whole wedding process. Her professional yet friendly manner made it easy to discuss ideas and she was always willing to share her opinions and experiences.
Bek, Paul and the whole team worked absolute magic on our wedding day. I don't know many brides who can say they were barely stressed in the lead up to the day and not stressed AT ALL on the day of the wedding. I knew Bek was completely capable of taking care of every detail and I was very pleasantly surprised by how truly stunning the venue looked. Every small detail was thought of and taken care of and everything I had envisaged looked 20 x better than I had ever hoped.
My guests are still commenting on the beautiful ambience and atmosphere of the wedding which started with the amazing organisation and ended with the absolutely gorgeous styling of both ceremony & reception.
I can't thank Bek enough for creating something so special and unforgettable for us - we will forever feel complete and utter happiness every time we think about our perfect wedding day!

Words cannot express how amazing Bek and her team is! From the get go, Bek was invaluable to have on hand. From the largest to the smallest details, Bek was there to talk it over and pointed us in the right direction. Her advice was particularly useful coming from interstate, and all of her vendor recommendations were outstanding. There would be no way that we could have been able to co-ordinate all the different elements in the lead up and on the day of our wedding, so having Bek made for a stress free day - such an achievement for a wedding day! She had it organised down to the letter and effortlessly smoothed over hiccups made by others!
This isn't even covering her absolutely beautiful styling on the day itself - so magical. We were blown away by how Bek picked up on the smallest of things we had mentioned, and nailed what we wanted by purely looking at some pin-interested images. Last, and most importantly, Bek and Paul (who does so much hard work behind the scenes) were lovely people themselves, and were genuine in ensuring that the day was exactly how we wanted it to be. Cannot recommend Bek & her team enough.

Bek, we really can not thank you enough for all the things that you did to make our wedding such a special day. You really went above and beyond the brief from spending hours on the phone with me, our meeting in Melbourne and sourcing a crazy amount of pom poms and fluffing them up - I really have no idea what I would have done without you.
You are ridiculously talented. I could not have been happier with the flowers and styling that you did for our wedding. And seeing you after the ceremony was such a great bonus!
Thank you again! We wish you all the best for the rest of wedding season. Looking forward to staying in contact and seeing what you come up with.
Love Sam and Joel

I don't have enough words to say how grateful we are to Bek for all her hard work and attention to detail. Bek is amazingly talented and we could not have hoped for a more beautifully styled wedding. In addition, we planned our wedding from overseas so it could have been incredibly stressful, but fortunately for us, Bek is a true professional and her advice, guidance and kind, calming presence during the lead up to the wedding and on the day meant that we were able to relax and enjoy every single minute of it with our family and friends. I cannot recommend Bek highly enough.
Thank you again Bek, so much!

We cannot recommend Bek highly enough. Bek immediately understood exactly what we wanted for our wedding and created a complete event that was beyond anything we could have ever imagined. Thanks to Bek, our day went along without a hitch and we were able to enjoy it without a worry!
We were organising a wedding from interstate and Bek was our person "on the ground": she was able to both recommend and organise suppliers and she was across every single detail, from the lighting, the table settings, the food, and the decorations. She added personal touches to everything and her florals were absolutely divine!
Bek, thank you again so much for your hard work!! The level of professionalism you and Paul displayed was second to none and we will never forget what a perfect day you put together for us! xx

Bek, we are so happy that we had you on board with our wedding last November. You did such an incredible job and we were blown away by how beautiful everything looked, as were our guests. The marquee looked even better than we had imagined!!
Everything really was perfect - from the flowers to the seating plans! Your attention to detail was superb - from sourcing “wild” daisies and making sure they were in my table setting to making my bouquet exactly how I had envisioned it. Your hard work in the lead up to the big day also allowed me to be so much more relaxed, which was a benefit to everyone!!!!!!
Thank you so much, it really was a dream day
