What we do…
Most couples have planned all the details of their wedding themselves. Whilst they have done an amazing job taking care of all the preparations they soon realise that their wedding day should not be about stressing over every little detail going to plan but about sitting back and enjoying it with their close family and friends.

We will be that one point of contact to oversee and direct proceedings to make sure everything that has been meticulously planned is set up exactly as you envisioned without having to make it happen yourself.
We are happy to be involved in your wedding journey as much or as little as you need. We offer many different packages to suit every couple including the Wedding Day PA Half Day Wedding Coordination Full Day Wedding Coordination Full or Partial Planning Styling Floral Styling and Set up and Pack down services and we travel to any location throughout NSW and ACT.

I started drafting this review on the morning of my wedding when it hit me just how much Leisa had put into the day, and how totally lost we would have been without her.
There genuinely aren’t adequate words to describe the service Leisa provides. From planning to execution, she made the entire experience seamless. Every vendor she dealt with made a point to say how unbelievably organised and lovely she was. She made me feel so at ease every step of the way - not just with her talent in planning and coordination, but with how kind she is.
Leisa is a machine. She did not stop from arrival to the time she left. She thought of things that wouldn’t have even crossed my mind and organised them before anyone had to think about it. Nothing was a problem and I felt totally confident in every decision she made. She truly went above and beyond on every level.
We simply wouldn’t have been able to have the amazing day that we did without Leisa. To have someone who is involved in your wedding day who cares so deeply, is so skilled in her craft, fits in like a (hilarious and lovely) guest and just wants to ensure everything is right by you as a couple is invaluable.
I had people ask me for weeks leading up to the wedding and even the day of if I was nervous or stressed, but knowing we had Leisa working with us meant I knew everything would be brilliant.
I’m the president of the Windwood Events/Leisa fan club - I just cannot believe my luck to have found someone so amazing to play such a key role in the wedding day.
Leisa - you are everything. Thank you so much - we will be grateful forever and ever.
Love Olivia and Rhys and our families xx

Thank you, Leisa, for all your work - there is no way our wedding would have looked half as good without you, and we’ll always remember how special you made each interaction and the day itself.

Leisa provided such fantastic support on my wedding day and during the lead up. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Highly recommend her!
Cheryl + Matt
Leisa deserves more than 5 stars.
Leisa, managed all our suppliers, coordinated & communicated with everyone for our wedding day, took all worries away from us.
Sourced and delivered all flower arrangements, set up & decorated our venue, Leisa is amazing.
Leisa was with or there for us every step of the way including the big day, she delivered our beautiful arrangements of flowers from 8am and was still there ensuring all proceedings went well at the end of the night.
As they say! Do yourself a favour, chat with Leisa about your event you will be as delighted & impressed as we and our guests all were for our Special Day.
As we said to Leisa , more than happy to shout from the roof tops about the excellent service Windwood Events can offer.
Thanks again Leisa, you delivered everything you promised and more.
Georgia + Will
Leisa thank you so much for everything you did and for your help to make the day come to life. We had an amazing day and night, thank you again!

Leisa is amazing! We were married on a private property and had to set up the whole thing from scratch, without Leisa this would not have been possible. She is trustworthy, professional and a great energy to be around not once making us feel stressed or like our ideas weren't possible. Leisa styled the ceremony and reception so beautifully and made our dream wedding come to life.
Her experience and knowledge is invaluable, highly recommend! We love Leisa!

We brought Leisa on board as a wedding coordinator a few months out from our wedding. We had a DIY wedding and had done almost all of it ourselves prior, and we just wanted a point person on the day. It turned out to be the best decision we made in the vendor hiring process. We thought we were getting a wedding coordinator but what we actually got was a wedding miracle worker!
I don’t really know how to summarise what Leisa did, because she truly did so much. She helped us from the get go. She found local staff to help us reduce travel costs of bringing staff from Sydney, she knew about roadworks which would impact our bus route and she worked closely with the suppliers. When the inevitable little changes were made to the runsheet or any part of the process, she updated all of the vendors that needed to know on our behalf. She was also patient and understanding of my reluctance to let go of control!!
Then in the set up and on the actual day, Leisa was in the thick of it. We had brought a lot of decorations and had some ideas of where they could be set up, and she took them, set them up and made everything look beautiful without us having to worry. From setting tables to playing music, to helping my mum with cake decorating to moving flower arrangements to steaming dresses… Leisa went above and beyond… and then beyond again. She was always one step ahead on the day. She lit the candles before guests entered the marquee for dinner, she prepared and decorated a table to be brought out for cake cutting, she lit the outdoor bonfire just before the speeches finished up. When I watched our wedding video back, at one point, I saw Leisa fluff my dress to look better for photos and I didn’t even know it had happened in the moment. Incredible. She moved our flower arrangements multiple times throughout the event so they were perfectly positioned in photos (i.e. from the ceremony to the place where people gave speeches), again I didn’t even see it happen! I swear Leisa had cloned herself because she was everywhere!! My bridesmaids said “we wish we had a Leisa in all aspects of our lives”.
I also loved her energy and that she was direct and no fuss and also funny. She wasn’t precious and no task was too much.
My partner and I were really organised in our planning but you just don’t know what you don’t know - and it was so comforting to have someone like Leisa there to steer the ship on the day. We didn’t have to think of one logistical thing and we’re able to totally relax and have the best day of our lives.
I can’t thank Leisa enough and I truly think we wouldn’t have had the day we had without her

I am not the kind of person who likes to write reviews and spend much effort on them unless it's a bad one, this could be the only exception! Can't remember how many times I have said thank you to Leisa, who always kept us in mind even though our wedding was postponed twice in 3 years. When we finally got close to the eventual big day after a 3-year wait, she took away a lot of my burden and stress with her thorough preparation work and quick communications. I knew I can fully trust her and she simply went beyond my expectation on the day.
Needless to say, the day was extremely smooth and I fully enjoyed the party completely worry-free, thanks to how organised and accountable Leisa is. The final bit of styling she did with my florist was beautiful! She also took the extra initiative of finding a little cute basket for all my send-off bubbles when I did not request it and just intended to use the plastic case they came in with (yup Leisa, I noticed!). The next day when I was unpacking all the wedding items, I was impressed with how attentive she was through the way she packed away all the items - in a very smart and careful way, even it was the end of her work and she was probably dying to go home.
Leisa's good work definitely did not go unnoticed. Two of my guests, who are boss ladies and known to have very high standards, came to me separately and proactively complimented her. Exact quote: "Your coordinator, Leisa, she is good. Very organised!" My husband and I both know praises don't come out of these mouths easily.
So Leisa, allow me to say THANK YOU again, wholeheartedly.

Our wedding was absolutely perfect, and it is all thanks to Leisa! From our very first conversation, we knew that Leisa was the professional that we wanted to work with. She is kind, caring and took the time to get to know us and what we had in mind for our special day. Leisa guided us through the entire wedding planning process by connecting us with suppliers, coordinating with the venues and bringing everything together into a seamless event. Leisa went above and beyond when handling the last-minute change of plans to our wet weather option the morning of our wedding. We didn't have to worry about anything knowing that Leisa was in charge.
Leisa is an amazingly talented professional, but she's also a wonderful human being who gets so much joy helping others plan their dream weddings.
We would highly recommend Windwood Events for all upcoming event planning and styling.

Stephanie + Lauren
Choosing to work with Windwood Events was the BEST DECISION of our entire wedding, and this is an understatement! Leisa is unbelievable to work with - kind, generous, supportive and so so organised. She took an incredible amount of stress and anxiety away from us as a couple. She provided incredible advice and guidance to help us plan and execute our perfect day. From organising and arranging our florals, to floor plans, to buses, to styling our whole set up, and running our ceremony rehearsal the day before & running the show on the day! Leisa goes above and beyond to ensure perfection on the day. We feel honoured we got to know Leisa & so thankful to have her part of our wedding journey! We absolutely will be recommending Leisa to everyone we know (including my own sister whose using her again in December 2022)! Best wedding planner/coordinator around. Thank you again Leisa from the bottom of our hearts, your a hero! Love Steph & Lauren

Flavia + Matt
Leisa is absolutely awesome, she was quick to reply to our calls and texts making sure we had everything we wanted. She made sure everything was going to be exactly what we planned by meeting us on the ceremony place which was very far for her. At the end due to the weather we had to change the ceremony venue and this did not stop her, she got in contact with the people from the new place and rearrange things to make sure everything was going to be perfect…and it was. When I got there, Leisa was there waiting for me helping and telling people what to do. Leisa went above and beyond to make sure we had the best day ever. You absolutely rock Leisa! I have no words to explain how happy and grateful I am for having you organise my special day!! Much love, Flavia

Jen + Simon
We cannot thank Leisa and Windwood Events enough for her efforts in making sure our wedding day went according to plan. We had initially planned to organise the wedding ourselves, however realised we needed some professional help once COVID restrictions came into play! Leisa was fantastic in coordinating the vendors we already had booked, negotiating those that we'd left to the last minute, offering advice, and being available near 24/7 to talk through any concerns and provide a much-needed sympathetic ear. We can't imagine the day without her, and multiple vendors and guests have commented on her ability to keep the day running smoothly while blending in with the crowd.
Thank you so much Leisa - you're amazing!!
Amy + Anthony
Leisa is a godsend! She is the person you need when you are planning a wedding or an event. She made the lead up and the day stress free as possible. We had a last minute change due to the weather on our wedding day and Leisa sprung into action and did her thing and made our ceremony look amazing! Not only is she amazing at her job, Leisa is just a beautiful person and very easy to get along with.

I would recommend Leisa and her services to anyone especially those doing a private property wedding. She created and coordinated the ultimate 'luxe farm wedding' for us. From helping to visualise and create the style, to contacting and organising vendors, to building furniture, alleviating any concerns I had from day 1 she was there via phone, text, email and in person too. She is a true talent, professional, reliable, warm-hearted and my new husband, family and I all have said many times we literally couldn't have done it without her!
Its been a pleasure to work with you!

Leisa was my sanity saver and a talented MC! She is experienced, detailed and flexible. My other vendors all praised her professionalism and were happy to work with her. We really appreciated her above and beyond services and now I would not imagine organising any big event without her!

We hired Leisa to help us with our wedding as we live overseas. From the moment we spoke on the phone we knew she would be great. She helped us find props we couldn’t find anywhere, coordinated logistics with our vendors and made sure everything came together on the day. We weren’t sure we needed a wedding coordinator, but we’re so happy we hired Leisa, we couldn’t have done it without her. She took all the stress out of the day and made sure everything was perfect. She was great with communication and was always available to chat. We couldn’t recommend her more.

We can’t thank Leisa enough for all her hard work in planning and coordinating our wedding. Leisa went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly in the lead up to and on the day. Leisa was fantastic to work with and was able to help with absolutely everything - sourcing and communicating with suppliers, hanging lighting and building a bar, are to name a few. Leisa is reliable, down to earth and has a geniune desire to help make your vision come to life. Choosing Leisa was one of the best decisions we made and we’d recommend you do too!

Hiring Leisa was the best investment we made for our wedding day, she took away ALL the stress! She “got” what we wanted for our special day, she used her networks and made practical suggestions, kept in regular communication with us and ensured every little detail was perfect, so the day ran like clockwork. Leisa worked like a trooper and remained warm and unflappable.

I had Leisa for my wedding and I can't recommend her enough. She was there every time I had a silly question, made sure everything was set for the day and on the day she brought everything to life. For all brides to be, seriously consider having Leisa and Windwood Events to be part of your day, you will not regret it!!!! Without a doubt, I have no idea what I would have done without Leisa there on the day looking after everything.

Leisa was a godsend on our wedding day. She went above & beyond to ensure things ran as smoothly as possible on a very windy day, which involved moving the ceremony location, dealing with the knock on effects of a car accident at the entrance to the venue and rescuing my veil as it was about to be taken by the wind, all on top of the faultless coordination and set up. We would definitely recommend Leisa to anyone wanting to create an amazing event.

Hiring Leisa as our Event Coordinator was the best decision we could have made!
It was such a weight off my mind to have her assistance in the planning process. She understood the kind of wedding we wanted, made great recommendations and wrangled our many vendors with style, fair and enviable efficiency!
Having her there coordinating on the day, knowing she had it all covered, meant that we could just relax and enjoy our wedding. It was a seamless day and we have so many happy memories to show for it!

Thank you Leisa, I don't know if I have properly expressed our gratitude for all your amazing work on our wedding day, you honestly included all these amazing things, that we didn't even know we could have and that we wouldn't have wanted to miss out on. Thank you so much again, I don't think I can put into words just how thankful we are, but you are such a gem and we are so happy that you were involved
