Proposals is a bespoke service, this means that no two
weddings are the same. The dream is different in everybody’s mind.
To illustrate how varied our work has been we have listed
below some examples of different plans we have put together
recently and given some prices also.

married June 12th 2008

Hi Richard,
Thanks again for organising our wedding in Rhodes at St Georges Chapel. After the slight hic-up
with the boat not being available and the building work being done by St Pauls’ Chapel, you
managed to sort out a change of location for us and made sure we had wedding cars and taxis for
our guests, within just a couple of days. All of this was done with the minimum of fuss and
absolutely no stress for Mark and I.

When we were not sure about our reception venue we found exactly what you had suggested was what
we wanted, and going to the different venues with you when we got out there made everything so
easy for us to do.
The flowers that I ordered were to an excellent standard and what can we say about the wedding
photos...they were fantastic. The photographer was great and it was all great value for money.
Both venues we chose, 1for a Pimms reception after the ceremony and the 2nd for our reception,
would never have been found without Richards and PROPOSAL’S help.
We will always have great memories of our wedding in Lindos.
Glenn and Elaine Skinner
Married 29th May 2008

Firstly, Elaine and I would like to thank Richard for all his efforts during our stay, from
arriving in Rhodes to leaving the island 14 days later. On meeting Richard, he gave us a mobile
phone to contact him at any time, and escorted us to our apartments where he had left us a couple
of shopping bags of essentials to get us through the first night. The following days leading up
to the wedding, Richard drove us around to finalise flowers, food, the cake etc. The fact that
Richard speaks fluent Greek is a massive help as i will come to later. On the surface the wedding
ceremony and reception could not have gone more smoothly, but underneath all that was Richard
coping with a potentially disastrous admin error by the local authorities. This is where he came
into his own, using his local knowledge and his grasp of the language to ensure everything stayed
on track.
The ceremony outside the shrine in St.Pauls bay was everything we imagined, hiring a boat to hop
around the bay to Skala restaurant for the reception was a master stroke that everyone will remember!
The meal was outstanding and the surprise Richard arranged at the end of the evening took everyone
by surprise. Forget Greek dancing/plate smashing, this was awesome!
I must mention the wedding photographer Vlassis, his work was fantastic and the album we received
three days later was truly exceptional.
All in all, a memorable wedding for us, the children, family and friends as well as a great holiday
in one of the most beautiful destinations in Europe.
Richard also helped out with problems which were not in his remit, such as my mother being stranded
without a transfer at Rhodes airport (no fault of Richards). He just stepped in and offered to pick
her up in his car, disaster averted.
Finally, one incident took place a couple of days after our wedding that convinced us we were right
to use Proposals as our wedding planner. We were having lunch in a beach restaurant when a young
lady and a rep from a well known travel company arrived to speak to the restaurant owner, it
transpired through us listening in, they had come to discuss the lady's forthcoming wedding reception
arrangements. The rep introduced the owner to the young lady and promptly walked off to the beach with
a towel under her arm leaving them alone, confusion reigned as the owner spoke little English and it
just seemed a complete opposite to our experience with Richard who liaised perfectly with every
component of our wedding.
Forget the so called big names, we only heard stories of disappointment. Its a very personal service
that you will get which he DOES take personally and that is to his credit.
Many thanks once again Richard from Elaine and Glenn Skinner.
Will & Tracey Aston
Derby
September 2007
Tracey and I would like to thank Richard for
his superb efforts on our behalf in organising our wedding
in Lindos in September 2007.
We decided early on in the planning stages that we wanted
a certain look from our venue, and that it had to be close, but not too
close to the U.K. After some preliminary research, Proposals seemed to
tick all of the boxes, and making contact with Richard was both easy and
reassuring. His knowledge and depth of experience of Greece and Lindos
in particular made my wife and I confident that we were in safe hands.
And further research of Lindos showed that it was a beautiful setting
for our most important of days.
After two meetings and numerous emails, phone calls and
gathering of official documentation, our trip was arranged and my future
wife and I flew out to Rhodes. We chose, on advice from Richard, to have
a week in Rhodes before our guests arrived, which I would wholeheartedly
recommend to others, as it allowed us to relax and more importantly, fine-tune
the details for the wedding. Richard was easily available throughout this
period, and nothing was too much trouble for him in terms of arranging
minor details. It must also be said that he rearranged the wedding from
the Saturday to the Friday with only two weeks notice, due to an unforeseen
circumstance on my behalf, which meant that I had to fly home on the Sunday
after the wedding at 7am. A huge effort, which is greatly appreciated.
It is difficult for me to express what a magical day my
wedding day was. Suffice it to say that logistically the operation worked
like clockwork, my wife looked like a vision and Lindos with its deep
blue sky, white walls and gin clear sea provided the perfect backdrop.
Highlights include my wife arriving at the ceremony on a Donkey (optional!),
the boat trip in the afternoon and the Pimms reception on the rooftop
of the Skala in Lindos bay as the sun set. Every detail exceeded my expectation
(which was high), and our guests had almost as good a time as we did!
So once again, thank you Richard from Tracey and I. You
will always be a valued friend, and I look forward to meeting again in
Lindos, the home of so many wonderful memories.
Yours sincerely, Will.

Married St. Pauls Bay Lindos August 2007
Dear Richard
Just a few lines to say THANK YOU for organising our wedding in Lindos. IT WAS FANTASTIC!!
First of all you took all the pressure off of us (I was especially grateful for this) the calm we felt was unbelievable. The best feeling, which you instilled in us both from the beginning, was all we had to do is turn up, and so we were enabled to enjoy our wedding day thoroughly.
Your knowledge of the local area was especially helpful to us when choosing our venue for the reception. We chose the place that you suggested and it turned out to be just the right size, we told you how many people we expected as guests and you sourced the available restaurants and we chose which one from detailed descriptions and menus.
The décor was commented on by everyone and of course the food. We chose the menu and with your help we were able to add to or take away from it as we wanted, you showed great initiative and flexibility by helping us communicate to the restaurant owner exactly what we wanted. Also you provided a great nights’ entertainment from the comprehensive list of performers on your books and all of this was handled in a professional and personal way.
We would like to add at this point that for anyone who has doubts about independent wedding planners abroad, if they are from this company (PROPOSALS) they will be with you all the way from day 1, as you were with us Richard, and it will be a very secure and thankful feeling.
How great was it when you brought the Wedding Album to us completed and finished in a well bound album by the fantastic photographer that you have on your books, (we have since learnt that no-one else has this guy on their books he is great).
We could not have asked for a better wedding day Richard,
you made it all happen for us.
Thanks again for everything – Flights and Accommodation for us and our guests,
hen – do, stag – do, transport, flowers, food, drink, photos, hairdresser and
entertainment in fact everything. Thank you for organising our wedding for us!!
Regards and thanks again
Tracey and Mike Bushell
Tracey and Russell wedding
day 06/ 09/2006
Dear Richard
We would like to thank you for making our special day a day to remember.
Due to all the excellent work you put in, both in the build up to the
wedding while we were still in the UK and during our stay in Lindos, we
found we could relax to a degree knowing that you were taking care of all
legal and personal aspects of the wedding. In particular, you always
responded promptly to any queries or concerns we had prior to our arrival in
Lindos and your personal service during our stay was very much appreciated.

We're both sure the day itself wouldn't have gone as smoothly without your
organisational skills and personal attention. It was reassuring that you were
always available and willing to meet with us.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Proposals for anyone wishing to
get married in Rhodes.
We look forward to meeting you again when we return to Lindos for our 1st
anniversary next year - if you are there!
Best wishes
Tracey and Russell Beaman
