About Us

Who are we

Nicholls & Co is an award-winning wedding planning and styling company based in Dunedin, creating beautifully curated weddings and events throughout Otago and Southland.

Founded by Rachel and Josh Nicholls, we are known for refined styling, seamless coordination and thoughtfully designed celebrations. From on the day coordination and wedding planning to bespoke styling, furniture hire, lighting and bar services, we bring every element together to create an effortless experience for you and your guests.

Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a large-scale celebration, our focus is simple – creating timeless weddings that feel personal, beautifully considered and unforgettable.

At Nicholls & Co, we believe you should be the guest of honour, not the host.
