The business is lead by former theatre producer & CEO of The Wedding Academy Jac Bowie, and head planner Kiri Walker.
Our branches offer on the day co-ordination, styling & design and full service wedding planning.
For our wedding planners, they run their own business with our ongoing training, support and marketing.
“Within about 3 weeks I received my first full planning wedding booking for a short lead wedding. The bookings followed on steadily from there & I have been busier than I have ever been. I love the team & support that we get from the other wedding planners in the team just to bounce ideas off each other is great. I wish I had of joined the DDP family sooner.”
— Kiri Walker
