About Us
Curated Wedding Fairs. Trusted Suppliers. Refined Experiences.
At Fox & Bee, we believe planning your wedding should feel exciting—not overwhelming.
That’s why we do things a little differently.
We create wedding fairs that are thoughtfully curated, genuinely useful, and quietly refined - bringing together a select group of trusted suppliers in a setting that feels calm, considered, and inspiring.
No chaos. No hard sell. Just the right people, in the right space.
Where It Started
Fox & Bee was founded by Jonathan Purday and Rachel Jones - two people who have spent their careers helping others create meaningful, memorable experiences.
The name itself is rooted in where we come from.
-
Jonathan is from Leicestershire, long associated with the fox.
-
Rachel is from Greater Manchester, where the worker bee has become a symbol of the city.
Different backgrounds, the same mindset:
hardworking, grounded, and quietly proud of doing things well.
That balance sits at the heart of everything we do.
What Makes Us Different
We’re not here to host the biggest wedding fairs.
We’re here to create the right ones.
Every supplier you meet has been carefully selected - not just for their talent, but for how they work with couples.
We look for people who:
-
Care about what they do
-
Take pride in the details
-
Genuinely want to be part of your day
Because that’s what makes the difference.
Meet The Team
Curated
We keep things intentional. Fewer suppliers, better quality, more meaningful conversations.
Trusted
We stand behind the people we bring into our space - so you can feel confident in every connection you make.
Refined
From the setting to the flow of the day, we focus on creating an atmosphere that feels relaxed, elevated, and easy to enjoy.
For Couples
Whether you’re just starting out or finalising the details, our fairs are designed to help you move forward with confidence.
You’ll leave with ideas, clarity, and - most importantly - the right people around you.
For Suppliers
We work with a limited number of suppliers who share our values and standards.
If you take pride in your work, care about your clients, and want to be part of something more considered, we’d love to hear from you.
The Fox & Bee Way
At the heart of it, Fox & Bee is about keeping things simple:
Good people.
Beautiful ideas.
And a wedding that feels like you.
