Hey, it’s ME! (As would say!) the female founder of Olive & Ivy Essex. ♥️
My little corner of the business world was founded because of the women that went above & beyond to get here & because of them, O&I was born.
From on female to another, running businesses, families or just day to day, I’m proud to say that we CAN do it & do it WELL!
Who run the world?…. GIRLS!

Welcome to Olive & Ivy

Food has always been a cornerstone of my life.

My mother originates from Maiori on the Amalfi coast and so in true Italian style, the kitchen was always the hub of family life.

From the preparation, to the serving, to the eager hands reaching for various delicacies, the cultural importance of sharing a meal was woven through our everyday.

When I started Olive and Ivy, it was this social connection that I wanted reflected in my grazing tables. I work tirelessly to capture the essence of your occasion, curating beautiful tablescapes, filled with delicious bespoke foods and styled to perfection.
