About

I'M GLAD YOU'RE HERE

Welcome to a world of weddings and wonder!

The Wedding and Events Institute was born from a love of design and a commitment to excellence. Founded by Tanielle, an accomplished event designer and educator, The Wedding & Events Institute unites two worlds...

Luxury event styling and creative education.

What began as a passion for creating beautiful celebrations has evolved into a hub for training the next generation of creative entrepreneurs. Today, we stand as a boutique destination for those who value artistry, precision and growth.

HI, I'M TANIELLE

an internationally accredited wedding professional with a flair for crafting breathtaking event flowers and whimsical balloon installations that turn dreams into reality. But beyond the weddings, blooms and balloons, I'm also here to be your compass in the vibrant world of wedding and event entrepreneurship.

MY STORY

My journey began with a deep-rooted passion for design and celebration which has blossomed into a thriving business specialising in wedding and event planning, floral design and balloon styling. With The Wedding & Events Institute, I have created a space where luxury meets learning and where every creative is encouraged to rise to their fullest potential.

In 2019, fueled by an unyielding passion and a mission to empower budding event enthusiasts, the learning hub at The Wedding and Events Institute was started. Our institute stands as a beacon of excellence, offering education and training for those ready to embark on their journey in the wedding and event industry. I know firsthand the hurdles of stepping into this dynamic field, the yearning for guidance, and the desire for affiliation with an accredited and recognised institution. TWEI is accredited by Services SETA (Sector Education Training Authority; Accreditation Number: 14677) and adheres to the SSETA code of conduct.

YOUR PARTNERS IN CREATIVE SUCCESS

Our Philosophy

We believe luxury is not excess... It's intention.

It's the care behind every floral stem placed, every table styled and every moment orchestrated with purpose.

Our philosophy is simple: beauty lies in mastery and mastery is born from learning, refinement and passion.

We teach and create from that belief, merging creativity with structure and imagination with expertise.

OUR COMMITMENT

To our clients: we promise seamless service and timeless design.

To our students: we promise empowerment, guidance and the tools to achieve creative excellence.

To the industry: we promise to raise the standard of artistry, professionalism and passion in every event and every lesson.

Working with Tanielle as our wedding planner was an absolute dream. From the very first meeting, she understood our vision and transformed it into something magical. Every detail was flawlessly executed. I Her professionalism, calm energy and creative touch made the process enjoyable. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and talented planner.
