For those who know me or have followed me here or on social media, you'll know just how important my family are to me. I'm part of a large extended family who live in the UK, US, Canada and on the beautiful island of Barbados. I'm also extremely fortunate to have a loving husband and we're blessed with two fabulous children.
At the beginning of the story of Benessamy Wedding and Event Design and at its heart, is my family.
When my brother and sister-in-law got married on the beautiful island of Barbados, a few things didn't quite go to plan for them so I stepped in and assisted with the coordination of their day - I loved every second! You could say I have them to thank for lighting the spark that fuelled the fire.
The business name 'Benessamy' is a blending of the names of my two children, Ben and Jessamy: so the whole venture really is rooted in love!
You can find out more about the story behind the business and my commitment to our clients here.
I get great joy and satisfaction from planning and creating luxurious, heartfelt celebrations for people who want to feel they're in safe hands so if you're ready to discuss how I can help you with your plans, please get in touch to arrange a complimentary consultation. I look forward to meeting you soon!

This September, my husband and I will have been married 29 years. I don’t need much of an excuse to talk about our wedding day. It was truly wonderful, and I've asked my husband many times if we can do it all over again! Today, I thought I’d share some of the details and a few things I’ve learned about marriage since that memorable day…
