Meet Lisa from Lincs Weddings: Connecting Couples with Lincolnshire's Best Wedding Suppliers
When planning a wedding, finding the right suppliers can feel overwhelming. With so many options available, it can be difficult to know where to start, who to trust and how to build the perfect team for your wedding day.
As a bridal hair specialist, I'm passionate about supporting local wedding businesses and helping couples discover talented and trusted suppliers across Lincolnshire. That's why I was delighted to catch up with Lisa, founder of Lincs Weddings, a leading Lincolnshire wedding directory that connects couples with trusted local wedding suppliers, someone I've had the pleasure of becoming friends with through the Lincolnshire wedding industry, about her journey, her advice for couples and what she loves most about the Lincolnshire wedding industry.

Tell us a little about Lincs Wedding Directory and how it started.
“When I was planning my own wedding, I really struggled to find suppliers. There were a few well-known names that seemed to advertise everywhere, but I knew there had to be many more talented businesses out there that couples simply weren’t finding.
After getting married, I started a wedding blog where I could share my experiences and spend time discovering those hidden gems. Whenever possible, I’d review suppliers and document my journey of discovery. What started as a personal project quickly became something much bigger.”
What made you want to create a platform supporting local wedding suppliers?
“My wedding blog began attracting attention from both suppliers and couples. Suppliers wanted to advertise, while couples were reaching out for advice and recommendations.
Quite accidentally, I realised I was helping both sides of the industry connect. What started as a cathartic blog became something much bigger. The blog launched in 2014, but it wasn’t until 2018 that it naturally evolved into a wedding directory.
Lincs Weddings wasn’t created from a business plan or by copying an existing model. It grew organically from the experience of a frustrated bride who simply wanted to make finding great suppliers easier.”
What do you think couples are looking for most when planning weddings right now?
“The biggest trend right now is that there are no rules anymore.
Traditional wedding seasons don’t really exist. Large-scale receptions sit comfortably alongside intimate gatherings. Some couples choose one dress, others choose three. Midweek weddings are increasingly popular, while some couples turn their celebrations into an entire weekend.
More than anything, couples want a wedding that reflects them. They’re moving away from expectations and focusing on creating a day that feels authentic to who they are.
My advice is always the same. Embrace what makes you happy and choose suppliers whose style, experience and personality align with your vision.”
What are some of your favourite wedding trends you’re seeing in Lincolnshire?
“I can’t help but fall in love with a timeless country-classic wedding. Elegant styling, soft florals and beautiful Lincolnshire backdrops never go out of fashion. There’s something incredibly romantic about that combination.”
What advice would you give to couples choosing their wedding suppliers?
“Do your research and meet suppliers whenever possible. Someone can only help create your dream wedding if they truly understand you as a couple.
Once you’ve narrowed down your options, focus on personality as much as portfolio. You’re going to spend a lot of time communicating with these people, so choosing suppliers you genuinely connect with can make the entire planning process feel much more enjoyable and far less stressful.”
What do you think makes a wedding supplier truly stand out?
“What makes a supplier stand out will be different for every couple, and that’s what makes our industry so special.
Rather than trying to follow every trend or fit into a particular mould, I think the best suppliers are unapologetically themselves. They create work they genuinely love and attract couples who connect with that style and approach.
Authenticity stands out. Passion stands out. When a supplier genuinely loves what they do, couples can feel that.”
Why do you think supporting local wedding businesses is so important?
“Supporting local wedding businesses is incredibly important because behind almost every wedding supplier is a real person who has poured their heart, time and energy into building their business.
Many are small business owners wearing multiple hats every day, balancing creativity, administration, marketing and client care all at once.
One thing I’d encourage couples to do is acknowledge the suppliers they don’t choose. A simple email saying, “Thank you for your time, we’ve decided to go in another direction,” means more than you might realise. It allows suppliers to close the enquiry and is a small gesture of kindness that goes a long way.”
If you could give couples one piece of wedding planning advice, what would it be?
“Don’t listen to anyone at the very beginning of your wedding planning journey. In fact, don’t even listen to me.
Sit down together and talk about what would genuinely make you happiest on your wedding day. Identify your non-negotiables and build a vision around those first.
Once you’ve established what matters most, you can start bringing suppliers into the conversation and working out what’s achievable within your budget and timescales.
Your wedding doesn’t need to meet anyone else’s expectations. It only needs to feel right for the two of you.”

Final Thoughts
A big thank you to Lisa for taking the time to share her experience and advice with me and all of you reading this.
A lot of this resonates with me, as a bridal hair specialist who loves to work with local Lincolnshire wedding suppliers, but also as a bride-to-be myself!
Lisa’s advice about creating a wedding that truly reflects you as a couple has been at the heart of mine and my fiancé’s wedding planning journey. It's actually led us away from the big traditional wedding that many people imagine, and towards a celebration that feels much more like us. We couldn't be happier with the plans we've made.
As someone who spends wedding mornings with brides, I see first-hand how special it is when every detail feels personal and meaningful.
If you're currently planning your wedding and looking for trusted Lincolnshire wedding suppliers, Lincs Weddings is a fantastic place to start your search.
And if you're looking for relaxed, romantic bridal hair for your Lincolnshire wedding, I'd love to hear more about your plans.
