For the past fifteen years we have been Event Organising both in the UK and Europe for clients ranging from private individuals to Corporate Entertainment for Blue Chip companies and household names.

We can be a sole supplier for all your event requirements. This allows all event aspects to be kept within a strict budget. We have two large warehouses full of event equipment, staging, bars and light and sound kit which enable us to provide a great service within your budget rather than cross hiring items in for your event.

Alongside all the necessary equipment, staff and fantastic entertainment we offer a completely dedicated team of event managers who, coupled with saving you time and money, will bring with them the peace of mind to allow clients to enjoy their event.

You need to read our blog to see what we have recently been organising to get an idea of what we are capable of. Watch our videos and call us to discuss your event.

We can do as much or as little as a client requires, allowing a tailor made package to be put together to cater for all tastes.

We pride ourselves with our personal service and we are always happy to come and see you for a no obligation chat about a possible event.

Where necessary we can give more formal presentations on past events and clients, to demonstrate our capabilities.

We continue to produce events using traditional foundations whilst striving to find the next generation of entertainments and additions to keep our events fresh and fun for clients and guests.

Here are some basic tips about event organising to help you in the initial planning stages.

Regardless of the size or budget of an event there are always generic key elements to consider as a foundation to success:

How to start to organise your event:-

1. Find a Venue.

2. Pick a Date.

3. Have a good long think or brainstorm about how you see the event panning out on the day. Imagine you are a guest and you are arriving at the venue. What do you see as you arrive. For example where do you park and how do you get into the venue? This may be very easy, as it may be a marquee in a field but have you thought about signage and lighting to aid peoples access to the venue? Still pretending to be a guest walk through the event and imagine what facilities there are for the guests to see and do. Think about previous events you have been to and use these experiences to build your idea event. Remember to pay attention to:-

4. Where will guests go?

5. What will they drink?

6. What will they eat?

7. What will they do?

These really are the foundations to any event. Remember, key elements first. Do it sooner rather then later if you want the best marquee or the most popular bar; especially if your event is during a busy events season like the summer or Christmas. You can normally book event 'add ons' up to a week before the event if you decide you want to splash more of your cash.

Once you have answered all these questions and booked these key elements THEN you can start to decide what entertainments you want, or what colour seat cushions to have. If your guests turn up and there is no bar, they'll remember it. If your guests turn up and the seat cushions are red instead of your requested pink whose going to know? Guests will still have a great time.

If you're selling tickets for your event and are worried about budget depending on ticket sales then book the basics of the key elements. Eg. Book the marquee, but then decide whether you want star cloth lining in the marquee nearer the event date. Book the actual bar and bar service, but wait to see how many tickets you've sold nearer the event date before upgrading to the award winning flairing bar staff. Most companies are used to clients working like this.

Another idea we use with clients is to get them to think about the events they have attended in the past and make a list of the good and the bad aspects of those events. This helps concentrate on what clients like and what worked whilst allowing them to avoid the pit falls that they experienced in the past.

Bear in mind that if you use only one or two suppliers for your key elements you will save money as they will offer you a package deal. Ask your suppliers to recommend things to you. They may well offer additional services (such as fireworks) or they will certainly be able to point you towards a suitable solution. Remember, suppliers will only recommend to you other suppliers that they have met and worked with. Their recommendations are a direct reflection of their own services!
Most importantly, write lists; lots of lists! Then work your way gradually through each item on the list. If you're organising a big function this is the most vital of tools. Otherwise you will be overwhelmed by the task ahead.

And finally; enjoy yourselves! (And call us!)

Over the past fifteen years we have learned to cope with all kinds of issues and have become especially experienced in dealing with:

Insurance / licensing/ weather / health & safety/ guest requests

Even if you just want to chat to us about a potential event, how to licence it and how to start organising things then please feel free to get in touch.

Charity Ball Setup and ready to go. This 600 people Charity Ball was really a 3 day extravaganza. The Friday was a ladies lunch in the marquee with the girls from loose women followed by the ball on the Saturday night and a family fun day on the Sunday.

Black and White Dancefloor with Starcloth Ceiling. We also installed a large high gloss black and white dance floor with an LED starcloth roof in the marquee. With a full nightclub disco rig installed for the dancing the ball ran very well raising plenty of funds for the Charity. We received a fantastic testimonial from the client The Legacy, Rainbow House.

Skytrackers, Red Carpet Entrance. To make the Ball feel really special we installed a red carpet entrance with Sky Tracker Hollywood search lights and real Flame Flambeaux

You can see how this Red Carpet Entrance really made the party start with a fantastic WOW factor

A small chill out marquee is decorated with Moroccan style low seating and cushions. We put LED colour changing lights in the corners to very slowly and subtlety change colour throughout the night.

Here is a view into the marquee and onto the dance floor. You can see the bar in the background and the gloss black and white dance floor.

Further into the marquee the bar really shows up in this blue themed party. Three Cocktail bar staff twirl bottles and make drinks for guests throughout the night.

Right in the background you can see the bar set up for this very high class wedding. The theme here was again blue and you can see how this has been brought out in the blue and white star cloth.

Low tables and seating for a chill out area next to the bar. Champagne glasses are ready on the bar for the guests arrival.
