I called for an urgent installation of a new cooker, after my old gas hobs abandoned me. This was a non standard installation, because the cooker was a different size of the previous one and needed to fit between two units of my kitchen, which needed to be moved. I am very happy with the job - they have been responsive, organised, punctual and very reliable. I will definitely call them again in the future for small and big projects in my house!

Excellent work. Everyone turned up on time, never missed a day and did an exceptional job! They were all very friendly as well. It's hard to find hard working labourers these days who want to do any work, so they were a breath of fresh air. Will be using again 🙂

We wanted an extension to the existing fence in a slatted contemporary style. After the initial visit to property to measure, Stuart arrived on the agreed date and two days later, gave us exactly what we wanted. Highly recommended and a job well done. Thanks lads.

Its my honest review about Mr. Colin. Mr. Colin is very Honest , Friendly , Professional , Punctual, Hard working and Dedicated with the work. I was planning to get a Decking in my back garden for a size of 6m x 3.6m. I contacted Mr. colin over the phone , arranged to view the area and provided me a quote. He came on time as agreed , surveyed the area and understood my budget. He shopped around for me to get the best quality material to meet my budget. He plans his work methodically and executes it preciously as per the design. He kept me updated with every stage of work ( Removal , Frame work , Fitting and Painting ). I am overall Happy and Impressed with his work. He surpassed all my expectation. It's difficult nowdays to find trades man like Mr. Colin. I highly recommend Mr. Colin and will use him for my next Job.

Yesterday was second time that I worked with Helen at Peckforton Castle, so many special and unique aspects were brought into play at this event, I can still hear the gasps of appreciation from the guests, the whole day ran like clockwork. I know what I'm talking about when I heap praise on Helen, I've been around the block having managed luxury hotels around the world for over 20 years and in my second career as a toastmaster for 15 years. I can tell you that Helen is right up there at the top of her profession On Saturday last once again I had the pleasure of working with Helen for a wedding at the palatial Old Palace, Chester. From the very start at Chester Cathedral to the first dance and conclusion it all ran perfectly with Helen and her team quietly, calmly & most efficiently ensuring this special day had a most successful outcome.

WOW! What can we say - Helen you were absolutely fantastic. We honestly do not think our day could have gone as smoothly as it did without you. From our initial meeting up until the big day the effort and orginasiation you put in instantly made us feel at ease. The logistics and complexity of the day was handled well within your calm & capable hands. We can't thank you enough, thank you for helping make our day so perfect. Lots of Love Charlotte & Jamie xxx

Chris has been invaluable to us while setting up a new business, from designing and creating business cards and flyers, assisting with promoting social media and setting up our website, to being a constant source of information and a friendly ear when confidence was low, we will be forever grateful. The website is fabulous, flyers are clear and well thought out and the business cards are spot on. Thank you!

Saskia did hair for our wedding for two mother of the brides, three bridesmaids and two brides and I can honestly say she’s fab! Not only is she lovely and really easy to chat to, she really listened to what we wanted both for our trials and on the day itself. She was so accommodating and came to our house to do our trial to make it easier for me as a wheelchair user! We couldn’t recommend her more and made the whole process from trial to wedding super lovely!

Saskia did my hair and makeup for my wedding in September, and also did my mum's hair and makeup. She was fabulous! My mum and I don't get our hair and makeup done very often, but she put us really at ease and was very happy to go with what we wanted, but also made helpful suggestions and guided us. We both ended up with such amazing looks that we were really happy with! Really recommend!

Saskia is a wonderful hair and makeup artist. She is such a talented lady. We loved having her and her calm influence with us on the morning of my wedding, with myself, my Mum and two bridesmaids. Our hair and makeup stayed the same all day long, and looked wonderful in our photos. All i’d say is- if you want to look like a princess for the day, book Saskia to do your hair and makeup. You won’t be disappointed- and book early!!

I found searching for a HMUA daunting having naturally curly hair but finding Saskia's amazing work on Instagram was such a relief; she was exactly who we needed! From our trial, Saskia was totally on my wavelength, so refreshing to have someone understand and enjoy working with curls! Super talented, she just got it and happily adapted to applying vegan products. On the morning of, Saskia's energy was so calming but encouraging; she put everyone at ease. Saskia beautifully created the bridal party's updos and then concentrated on my hair and make up. My emotions peaked when I sat in the chair so thank you Saskia for your kindness and reassurance. Trust me when I say, the bridal party just looked breathtaking; thank you for giving everyone that wow feeling, the confidence you and Chloe gave the girls is just everything! Saskia is honestly a magician, I have never felt beautiful and you gave me that; thank you 🖤 To see my Husband fight back the tears walking down the aisle, Saskia did it all and more. The compliments for us all were endless from guests, just the most surreal experience. All our hair and make ups still looked immaculate well into the evening a real testament. Thank you so much!

Can’t thank Claire and the team enough for all they did to help decorate and set up our wedding. Their experience with weddings and the contacts they have really helped us and we certainly couldn’t have done it without them. Claire totally understood our vision from the get go and really brought it to life - it looked better than we could have even dreamed of. Her calm demeanour was a real comfort to us throughout. She goes above and beyond to help out and is a lovely easy-going person in general. We couldn’t recommend Village Green more!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Claire for our wedding at Eyam Hall, and we couldn't be more grateful for her exceptional service. From the outset, her organisational skills were evident, ensuring every detail was meticulously planned and executed. Her communication was outstanding, keeping us informed every step of the way and always being available to answer any questions we had. Even providing extra creative flare to our initial plans. One of the highlights was the stunning floral hoop that Village Green Events created. It was beyond beautiful and added an enchanting touch to our venue. There creativity and attention to detail truly shone through in this breathtaking piece. As a bride and groom, we felt completely at ease knowing that Claire had everything under control. We didn’t have to lift a finger and were able to fully enjoy our special day, thanks to her impeccable coordination. We wholeheartedly recommend The Village Green events to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator who is organised, communicative, and exceptionally talented. Thank you for making our day perfect!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Claire for our wedding, and she was a joy to collaborate with from start to finish! The room styling was incredible and matched our energy perfectly. We knew we wanted pops of colour but were pretty relaxed about the rest—Claire took that vision and made it come to life effortlessly. She not only helped us bring everything together beautifully but also made the process completely stress-free, coordinating seamlessly with our other suppliers. Thanks to her, our wedding looked amazing. We can’t thank Claire enough for all her help in making our wedding a "wow" one!

My husband and I got married in August at Wildhive in Derbyshire. Village Green Events helped style the wedding and Laura, who was our contact, was amazing to work with! She leaves no stone unturned when it comes to her attention to detail and execution. Everything was so well thought out and her ability to foresee things you will need or might want is truly amazing. I went over my ideas with her and inspiration for what I was looking for and she ran with it and did an absolutely amazing job. Her communication is great too and she is quick to respond. Don’t hesitate to book The Village Green Events, they will make your event dreams come true!

Gave me a time and was here within that time. Did a fabulous job. Would highly recommend. Also has a cool looking van!! Cheers Albert. Jess

Albert has been absolutely fantastic in the service he has provided. We have had all external windows, doors and patio doors mastic’d. Two broken extractor fans replaced, a set of patio doors readjusted and a new lock, fitted new blinds and a new shower screen. Albert is a perfectionist and his work is always completed to a very high standard. What a lovely man! Thank you Albert, we have found the perfect handyman for any future work 😊

Albert from Dr. House Handyman did an outstanding job painting the exterior of my home. His attention to detail, professionalism, and efficiency truly exceeded my expectations. The house looks fantastic, with clean, even coverage and sharp lines. Albert was also incredibly respectful of my property, leaving everything neat and tidy at the end of each day. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and highly recommend Albert for any painting or handyman needs. Top-notch work!
