As we continue to celebrate our 30th birthday year, we’re delighted to be supporting our local primary school with their Earth Day initiative.

• A water butt and adapters for a downpipe
• Vegetable seeds for corn, tomatoes and pumpkins
• Tarpaulins for den building

How do you create luxury brand experiences?

Crafting an event is more than just logistics; it's about weaving together elements that resonate deeply, leaving a lasting impression. The aim isn't just to gather guests, but to ignite their curiosity on arrival and ensure they leave feeling inspired, all while fostering a strong connection to the brand.

Whether it's through learning something new, watching an incredible live performance, or sharing an exquisite dining experience, each impactful moment adds layers to the memory, ensuring a deep and enduring brand advocacy.

We are proud to work with luxury brands who believe in pushing boundaries and striving for excellence. The world of experiential events has evolved to new levels of immersive engagement, and we’re excited to be supporting our clients on this journey.

INTRODUCING: meet Susie, one of our multi-talented Project Managers.

When she isn't busy organising events for our clients, Susie creates incredibly beautiful cakes! We asked her to tell us a little more:

Q: When did you first realise you had a talent for baking?
A: I was initially inspired by a family friend who baked amazing homemade birthday cakes. They were so delicious and incomparable to anything shop bought. A true labour of love because of the time and effort involved. When I started baking, my early creations were laughable! My skills were honed during the pandemic when I had time to practise. Eventually I was gifted my beloved KitchenAid which has upped my game considerably.

Q: Most unusual cake ingredient?
A: Not so unusual in the Philippines (I am half Filipino) but I love “Ube” which is purple yam. It’s my Mum’s favourite so I often make her a traditional Ube Macapuno chiffon cake for her birthday.

Q: What would be your Bake Off showstopper?
A: Perhaps an Asian fusion inspired Matcha and Black sesame cake: aromatic fluffy matcha chiffon layers filled with tart Yuzu curd and black sesame frosting. Decorated with black sesame brittle and vibrant fresh edible flowers!
