North East entrepreneur launches pop-up weddings
A North East entrepreneur is launching the first wedding planning business of its kind in the region.
Faye Darcy, 24, is striving to make the concept of a pop-up wedding an attractive alternative to the average wedding. Her newly-launched company, Faye Darcy Pop-Up Weddings, provides a range of all-inclusive two-hour marriage and vow-renewal packages where couples merely chose a venue and a ceremony time and turn-up on the day.
Faye and her team of suppliers organise all elements of the wedding, including the venue and decorations, celebrant, wedding cake, flowers, photographer and a champagne toast.
Faye took inspiration for the idea after a stint working in Australia in 2015 where the concept is already very popular.
She said: “Pop-up weddings are a simple and elegant alternative to the more traditional wedding. Couples literally pop in to the wedding venue, get married then pop out! “The ethos is to give people a luxury, no-expense spared wedding but without a huge bill at the end of it, while allowing them to focus on enjoying themselves instead of having to think of every detail and months of stressful planning.”
Each ceremony has at least an hour in between to ensure couples have their exclusive time.
Faye said: “Prices of traditional weddings are on the rise. I believe that pop-up weddings will be seen as the wedding option in the future, and are perfect for the more adventurous couple who really want to focus on having fun on their special day.”
