Hilde is the work of ME, Anne Ladegast-Chiu.

As an event and wedding planner based in London, I create and produce weddings, brand events, private parties and intimate dinners within the UK and beyond. I also plan and design destination weddings, with a focus on Italy, Spain and France.

My design work is always inspired by my clients’ sensibilities, values or cultural backgrounds, which allows me to compose highly personal experiences that tell a story. Aware of current influences, I steer away from repetition and trends as much as possible. Instead I look deep and strive for meaning and quality over quantity in everything I do. 

With a professional background in project management, navigating and directing high volumes of tasks and decisions as well as budgeting and driving processes forward runs through my veins.

I have a real passion for reducing matters to their essence and approach life and work in a highly organised yet informal way, which makes creating and planning with me a natural and easy to follow affair.  

If you are here for your wedding, you can find out about how we can work together via my Wedding Services or have a look through some of my past weddings.

If you have come to me for your event, please see my Event Services or browse previous event and private dining work for inspiration.

WHO I AM

My roots are in the German countryside by the sea and together with my husband I love to immerse myself in raw nature and London’s diversity, embracing the best of both worlds. 

I adore the small things in life – having friends over for dinner, a day in the garden, honest conversations and a kind word or thoughtful gesture at the right time. I feel at home in creating and fixing things and love a night out as much as road tripping, hiking and skiing together with my man.

It was my love for design, hosting and planning that has inspired the launch of HILDE in 2017 – a heartfelt venture named after my Oma (grandmother), who I have fond childhood memories of.

Many summers were spent with Oma Hilde and many parties were planned and held in their home and garden.


AUBREY & BEN

‘Although these words will never fully be enough or express my full gratitude. Thank you for being so patient, detail oriented, thorough, thoughtful and creative. Thank you for everything! You brought it all to life.’
