Karen is the best! She's professional, knowledgeable and super helpful, nothing is ever too much trouble. She's organised a couple of events for us over the last couple of years and they've both been spot on - food, cocktails, wine, music, decorations - she really does know how to create the perfect party! Would highly recommend

What a fantastic Events Planner, super friendly, extremely well organised, great ideas and planned the most memorable 50th Birthday party EVER! Karen could not do enough to help make this such a special occasion and everything was planned so well that the event went without a hitch and EVERYONE was so impressed. Fantastic experience, would definitely recommend and book again... can't wait to be 60! More...

Thank you so much for organising a completely stress-free party for my 40th. Everything was perfect from start to finish and guests are still commenting on the amazing grazing tables that were on offer. The decoration was even better than expected from bespoke piñatas to matching colour schemes for the balloon arch- you even managed to think of details I hadn’t even considered- so thank you! I can’t wait for the next big birthday and working with you again! More...

What do you love most about your job?
I always feel privilege to be a part of my client's journey - imagining and delivering the perfect event.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always run my own businesses. I have run my own events venue and catering company. I've always been involved in hospitality.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have a wealth of experience in all aspects of events and hospitality. My huge network of contacts of years of establishing relationships in the industry mean that my fee is usually offset entirely by the savings I can secure.
Event Design Concept
Whatever your starting point I am always happiest when discussing design ideas. Every event, no matter how simple, should have a strong design concept that runs through every element from start to finish.
Venue Sourcing, Selection & Negotiation
Having run my own events venue for over ten years, I am your go-to person for venue selection and negotations. I can take care of the venue relationship throughout, from sourcing through to event close.
Decoration, Table Setup & Floristry
This is where your event design concept really comes to life. With literally hundreds of suppliers at my fingertips I can source the most beautiful decor. Leveraging my relationships to optimise your event budget.
Catering & Cakes
Having worked in the field of event catering for many years, I understand how the supply-side works. I am well positioned to negotate with external (or venue) caterers on your behalf to ensure the best value and quality.
Event Entertainment
I care about making your event the best possible experience for everyone and entertainment is a key factor. Whether it is selecting a DJ, choosing a children's entertainer or hand-picking a burlesque dancer. I have supplier relationships that stretch far and wide into the entertainment industry.
Project Management
I take care of the big picture and the small, tedious details and arrangements that are needed to ensure only perfect memories are created. I create an event website just for you where we can review and share event ideas and track progress against the entire project plan.
Setup & On-the-day Co-ordination
Trust me to take care of all your event on the day. You won't have to worry about suppliers arriving on time, directing guests or event teams or whether the champagne is on ice. I will take care of every detail so that you can enjoy every single minute.
