“Bonnie is a dream to work with. My partner and I had our wedding on a family farm and we needed an on-the-day coordinator and stylist who specialised in the management of private property weddings.
Everything from power to water, styling, wet weather planning, marquee seating, logistics and lighting, Bonnie has you covered.
She recommend numerous vendors that we were struggling to find, she made multiple site visits leading up to our wedding and ensured all on-the-day coordination and styling was on point.
I felt completely reassured. You want to ensure you have the best team around you on one of your most important days and Bonnie is definitely that person.
She is so warm, professional and patient. You are in very good hands!”

“We connected with Gathered Events (aka the brilliant Bonnie) for our wedding at Barunah Plains in Early Feb 2025.
We met Bonnie 18months out from our day, and she was a big basket of joy from the get-go. She completely connected with what type of celebration we wanted to have, and was instrumental in helping us secure the vendors which added so much.
On the day, she was a total professional, and we couldn't have had the celebration we wanted without her incredible knowledge, work ethic, attention to detail, and support.
We didn't have to think about a thing, and she assited our vendors with their needs on the day without the slightest hitch.
She's someone we loved getting to know, and becoming mates with, and we feel incredibly glad that she was the brains behind the operation!”

"Gathered Events was such a Godsend for our wedding. I first contacted Bonnie and told her I needed to pull off a wedding in 10 weeks (due to a terminally ill family member).
A hell of an ask with zero notice. Her positive, can-do attitude, constant support and motivation was phenomenal through what was a really difficult time and of course she pulled it off and created the most special and love filled day.
Tayla was our beautiful coordinator from Gathered Events for the 'on the day' coordination and was such a breath of fresh air. Nothing was too hard; from switching playlists, pouring champagne towers or standing in the mud with me one hand full of my wedding dress and the other with a cheeseboard so I could eat whilst getting get photos- nothing was too much for her!
We had such a beautiful day and It wouldn't have been possible without the attention to detail, care and passion of the Gathered Events Team. I'll forever be grateful for the memories they helped me to create and treasure.
If you're considering booking, DO IT!! I can guarantee you won't regret it X"

“Having Bon as our wedding planner was the best decision ever!!
She done numerous site visits, catch ups was very contactable for any questions that we had.
She communicated with all our vendors, created our run-sheet and made sure everything/everyone was set up correctly on the day. She took so much pressure off us which allowed Mitch and I to enjoy the day completely without any added stress.
Bon is so talented at what she does. We can't thank her enough for all the time, work and effort she put in to our day being perfect.”

“Bonnie was nothing but helpful in the lead up to my wedding, she was organised, kind and so helpful!
She recommended amazing vendors and communicated with me as much as I needed!
On my wedding day I had the lovely Tayla coordinate my day, she was so useful! I don’t know how I would have managed without her!! Tayla even went out of her way to get some extra alcohol during the night for us!
Can’t recommend both Bonnie and Tayla enough they are amazing!
You won’t be disappointed!!”

“Engaging Bonnie to help plan our wedding was the best decision we ever made. Her attention to detail, her knowledge and her organisational skills meant our day was completely stress free for us.
She took care of every fine detail which allowed us to enjoy the time leading up to the wedding and the day itself so much. No task was too hard or too small for her and her can do attitude was amazing.
Couldn’t recommend her more highly and we are so thankful we chose her to be our planner. “

“Bonnie was an absolute delight to have as the coordinator of our cocktail garden party style wedding at a home property. Her relaxed and professional manner was calming and reassuring in the lead up.
She has a wealth of knowledge so provided lots of guidance, helped finalise a runsheet and wrangled all the suppliers in the week leading up to the wedding and on the day, which meant we could focus on important things. She went above and beyond, including heading out to get extra beer when we ran out in the evening after a scorcher of a day!”

“We cannot thank Bonnie enough for everything she did to make our special day possible.
When we were initially planning our wedding, that a wedding coordinator was necessary. Bonnie was the first to come to mind and we are so glad and grateful for this.
Bonnie provided so much support, not only on our day, but the many days leading up to it. She answered the many panicked text messaged with calm and consideration. Bonnie had exceptional communication with our vendors, and all of our vendors spoke so highly of her professionalism, communication and coordination.
Bonnie is not only amazing at her job, she is so kind and fun, approachable, reliable, and knowledgeable.
Bonnie, you are incredible at what you do and you should be so proud of the business you have made.
Thank you again, we could not recommend you highly enough!
All our love, Kat + Jacob xxx”

“Bonnie is absolutely incredible at what she does. We are so grateful to have had her help and support in the lead up and on the day of our wedding!
She helped with ideas, site visits, making sure we had everything we needed, creating our run sheet, coordinated with all of our vendors and helped run the day so smoothly that we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
It poured rain our whole wedding day and it was still the most incredible day of our lives! She made sure our backup plan worked for us and that everything still looked perfect.
We could not thank you enough Bon, you eased so much of our stress and we are so blessed to have had you as part of our day 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 - Molly & Nick”

“Bonnie is an absolute gem and was amazing from our very first conversation right through til after our wedding day!
Bonnie was very professional but had the best personality that made you feel as though we had been friends for a few years!
She listened to what we had wanted and envisioned with our plans and our setup and took them all on board and openly discussed whether some things were worth it or not. She was an open book and was always happy to receive an email with an idea or thought as they bounced around in my thoughts. From all final confirmations and timings of our suppliers and entertainment, to timing run sheets and even on the day shopping for a few last minute items, she was working hard and always on top of it all!
The day of our wedding, she was on the go from the get go with setup, showing suppliers to where things are to be and where they need to setup, helping with the last minute rush of us girls getting ready, then all things ceremony, photos and then time to party with reception. She didn’t skip a beat and the marquee was absolutely stunning and setup as I had pictured!
So many comments from our guests of how helpful she was!!
Bonnie is beautiful on the inside and out and I couldn’t have done this without her! We had the most seamless day because of Bonnie and we are so thankful for her hard work!”

“I booked the Gathered Events wedding co-ordination package for my wedding in February 2022 at the Art Gallery of Ballarat. Bonnie and Tayla at Gathered Events are exceptionally good at what they do.
Thanks so Gathered Events, I felt like a guest at my own wedding - I was able to enjoy the entire day without giving a second thought to admin or logistics.
At one point in the night, we ran out of wine and Tayla had to pick up more supplies - I didn't even hear about this issue until the next day!
She sorted it all out without me even knowing. Hiring Gathered Events was one of the best decisions I made for the wedding - I highly recommend using them!”

“I was told to get in contact with Gathered Events to help plan my wedding day in the Ballarat area. Living in Sydney with no connection to the region I thought - why not, contacted Bonnie and never regretted that decision.
Our day was PERFECTION and it was all thanks to Bonnie. From finding the perfect vendors to ensuring the day itself ran smoothly, Bonnie was always there to help out and we really couldn’t have done it without her.
Professional, personal and fun Gathered Events is what everyone needs for their next occasion!! 20/10 - simply the best.”

“Booking Bonnie was without a doubt one of the best wedding decisions we made!
We had a last minute change of venue to a private property and having Bonnie there in the lead up gave me the piece of mind that nothing was going to be missed or forgotten.
On the day Bonnie was invaluable. She did so much behind the scenes stuff to make sure that everything ran smoothly which allowed the bridal party to relax and enjoy the day.
If you are having a private property wedding I would absolutely recommend booking Bonnie, she took care of everything including making sure we even had full glasses throughout the night!
Thanks again Bonnie!”

“From our very first meeting, we knew that hiring Bonnie at Gathered Events as our wedding planner & coordinator was the best thing we did for our big day!
It was always going to be a mission and a half to plan our wedding with a toddler keeping us very busy, so for this reason alone we were already keen.
As an individual, Bonnie presents herself professionally and friendly, making it super easy to get along with and work with her. She was always able to provide good recommendations and ideas where required at all times without hesitation or issues.
When our big day came, were both able to be completely present and focus on having the absolute time of our lives because Bonnie knew exactly what we wanted and handled it all for us.
We also greatly appreciate the efforts Bonnie went to in making sure our elderly guests were happy and comfortable.
We highly recommend Bonnie and her services!”
