Kiera Ryan, founder and Byron Bay wedding planner at Creative Weddings Byron Bay

Meet kiera

If you've recently started planning your wedding and already feel like everyone has an opinion, trust me, that's completely normal.

One of the biggest things I hear from couples is that they didn't realise how many decisions there were until they got engaged. Suddenly you're choosing venues, comparing suppliers, managing budgets, trying to stay organised and working out what actually matters to you amongst all the noise.

That's where I come in.

I've been planning weddings in Byron Bay since 2012 and my role is to make the entire process feel simpler, clearer and far less overwhelming. Think of me as your professional best friend. Someone who knows the industry inside out, can guide you through the decisions, answer the questions you didn't know to ask and make sure nothing falls through the cracks.

I look after the planning, logistics and styling, helping you create a wedding that feels like you while ensuring everything runs seamlessly behind the scenes. Having started my career as a qualified chef, I understand events from both sides. Not just how they look, but how they actually work. The timing, the flow, the guest experience and all of the moving parts that need to come together for a wedding to feel effortless.

I'm incredibly organised, detail-driven and passionate about creating celebrations that feel beautiful, intentional and genuinely enjoyable to plan.

My goal is simple. To take the pressure off, keep things moving forward and help you feel supported every step of the way, so you can spend less time stressing and more time enjoying this incredibly special season of your lives.

Reception styling at The Orchard Estate by Creative Weddings Byron Bay

Wedding planning looks different for everyone. Some couples want support from the very beginning, others need guidance once the big decisions start stacking up, and some simply want an experienced hand to bring everything together properly.

That’s why my services are designed to meet you where you’re at. Whether you’re starting with ideas, halfway through planning, or nearing the finish line, each service is designed to provide clear direction, steady support, and a wedding that runs smoothly.

With her graceful guidance, Kiera walked us through each stage of the planning process, helping us lock in every key detail at just the right time. Every question was answered promptly, every bit of research handled with care. I felt calm and present throughout the entire lead-up to the wedding, no bridezilla moments here! Everything was in control, and we knew it was all taken care of."

I tell anyone and everyone who will listen that this is the best wedding investment you will make and needs to be top of the wedding to do list."

She really takes care and masters everything, including styling, design and all the logistics, the best of both worlds!"

    VANESSA & NATHAN

  • "Our wedding would not have turned out so perfectly if it wasn’t for Kiera. We were unsure of whether or not we needed a wedding coordinator as we had already locked in a few vendors and we were worried about our budget, but turns out I didn’t truely understand how beneficial this service was going to be. Kiera has a wealth of knowledge and experience, and the calmest demeanour (it’s truely contagious). We are so grateful for how smooth and effortless she made the planning process for us. Friends and family members commented on how calm we were on the day and it was all because we knew we were in good hands.
