I can provide any level of service you require whether it be full event planning, help with decorating, setting up and packing down the venue or some advice on where to start. I will tailor a package that meets your needs and budget. I also have a range of items to hire and am in the process of building my stock as there are no party/event hire companies in Thames.

Our Story

Need a marquee for your big event, we have a great range of marquees and furniture at affordable prices. Our custom made wooden topped tables are a big hit and we have good quality seating, lighting and decor for hire. We put together great packages to make it simple for you to sort your big day. Our marquee packages are available up to 180 guests ( we can look at more if needed though)

Or have you set the date for the big day, booked all the important aspects, found the dress but struggling with ideas on how to make your venue/s look amazing. This is where I come in. Weddings can be so expensive and DIY is very time consuming. Luckily I love styling events and enjoy making and sourcing the items you need to make your big day perfect.

I am based on the Thames Coast and am familiar with many of the venues in our area. I can provide any level of service you require whether it be hireage, help with decorating, setting up and packing down the venue or some advice on where to start. I will tailor a package that meets your needs and budget.

I also have a range of items to hire - we can put together a package based on your brief and style and can either set it all up for you or you set it up yourself
