Absolutely brillient value for money!! Fantastic friendly, professional and responsive to any queries etc. Have 3 very happy children . The Christmas Eve boxes are Jam packed with sweet treats and activities to keep young ones well entertained and happy . Will definitely be purchasing again for next year as well as looking at ordering other party packages that's My Special Events Provide. Thank you again 🙂

The Christmas Eve boxes sent to some friends were a roaring success, full of fun, activities and a few sweets. Fast forward to a charity concert arranged by My Special Events, that was very well organised with some amazing raffle prizes they'd had donated by celebs. If you need to take the stress out of arranging an event hire My Special Events.

I need to take the stress out of a baby shower for my sister, as a hard working mum myself, I found it easy to just order a party box, with everything I needed.

So I ordered a birthday box, from my special events and I must say, it did take the stress right out of organising a birthday party. Which left me time to focus on guests and food. Thank you so much.

The most perfect venue for our March wedding! Incredible place with an amazing team that were always so accommodating and helpful. From the interior of the barn to the exquisite grounds and perfect get ready room, we genuinely could not have asked for more!

Beautiful venue for a wedding. £8 taxi from Petersfield train station. Fantastic setting - nice field for activities. Spectacular Barn for the ceremony - loads of photo opportunities - haven't had the ceremony yet but excited about using it.

Wow, what a venue! Beautiful building in lovely surroundings. An all day venue that will cater for your every need. My daughter married here and it was just perfect.

We held our wedding at The Tithe Barn and it’s such a stunning venue - the staff are extremely professional, calm and kind and we felt in very safe hands! Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful experience marrying at this venue. We wanted a beautiful setting with exclusive use for the full weekend, the flexibility to choose our catering options and lovely accommodation on site – we got all that and more at Manor Estate. Pippa is a delight to deal with, from the minute I met her I felt relaxed but knew that she would get things done! As it’s Pippa’s own business in her family estate, she really cares and we felt confident we would be well looked after, which we were. We had hoped to have the ceremony outside and although weather didn’t cooperate on the day, Pippa remained flexible and had both indoor/outdoor bars prepped in case there was the opportunity to be outside – which was wonderful when the sun shone after the ceremony for our drinks reception! The gardens are so pretty, there are so many beautiful photo opportunities. There is a good sized list of approved caterers to choose from which meant we had the flexibility to choose what suited us, whilst knowing that the caterers have done previous weddings at our venue. There is lovely accommodation on site (two separate wings), and with exclusive use for the weekend it meant that we could really enjoy the venue with our family rather than it all being over in a day. Being able to decorate the venue the day before really took the stress out of the preparations and Pippa was on hand to help and answer any questions, as she had been since the very beginning, always responsive and helpful. Pippa also went above and beyond helping my work colleagues coordinate a present to be delivered to the venue for us. We couldn’t have hoped for more and would highly recommend this beautiful venue.

We had our Wedding at the Manor Estate on August and it was the best day. Pippa is always on hand to set up and take down. During the day she was behind the scenes with the music and changing over of the room. It is the most beautiful venue and we are truly grateful to Pippa and her team! The accommodation on site is beautiful, everything you need and very spacious. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful venue and Pippa was amazing at attending to us and friends/family. The accommodation was incredible and so comfortable we loved every minute of our day and the night before. We couldn’t have wished for a better venue and are extremely pleased we chose The Manor Estate 😍.

Where to begin? We had our wedding day at The Manor Estate in August and the day surpassed any expectations, wants and dreams. We couldn’t have asked for anything more from the support given to us during the planning process, the day of set up through to the big day itself. Pippa and her team are amazing and made sure the day flowed seamlessly from start to finish without a hitch or bother. The venue will forever hold a special place in our hearts as the picturesque, dreamy location where we started married life. You forget there’s a world beyond the walls of The Manor for the day, it becomes this ethereal magical world filled with love and sheer happiness. A day dreams couldn’t have even imagined and all thanks to Pippa, her beautiful home and her fantastic team

There’s not enough words that can describe how amazing Southend barns is as a wedding venue. We were lucky enough to have Olivia as our wedding event manager from the first meeting right through to the day itself and she blew us both away with how amazingly she managed everything for us. Southend barns have a truly personalised service which makes you feel so special, even though they are incredibly busy and managing many weddings it never felt like that! Olivia gave us the most perfect day, working with all our suppliers and ensuring everything ran seamlessly so we could truly enjoy and soak up every moment. The venue is absolutely beautiful, I’ll never forget the emotions I felt seeing the barn set up for our wedding breakfast and the ceremony room the morning of my wedding - it was pure joy to see our wedding vision come to life by the incredibly talented event team! The food and drinks service was also incredible, we received non stop compliments from guests. We truly can’t thank Southend Barns enough for the experience they gave us, we would HIGHLY recommend the wedding venue and wish we could do it all over again!!

Wow, wow and wow! Where do we begin to even put into words how incredible Southend Barns were for our wedding. If you are looking for a gorgeous wedding venue in the South that has it all, you’ve just found it because these guys are at the absolute top of the game and are the best of the best, we are SO pleased we found Southend Barns and chose them to host our wedding. Southend Barns is such a stunning venue, and so much care goes in to every single inch of the venue, from the gorgeous barns, the outdoor space, the courtyard full of roses and the bridal suite to the grounds, its all kept to such a high standard. From the moment we stepped in to view the venue we fell in love, it has such a calming feel, everything was clean and high quality and this stayed consistent through every visit. We were looked after throughout out planning by the lovely Sophie who made us feel instantly welcome, at ease and she had it all under control, from start to finish she was so lovely and we are so grateful for all her help in the run up to our wedding. On the day our event manager was the amazing Kelly, who ensured the day ran seamlessly without us needing to do a thing, after months of preparation and crafting this was so appreciated as it meant we could sit back and enjoy the day to its fullest! After meeting Kelly the day before at our handover meeting, we both instantly felt in safe hands and nothing was too much trouble for her. All of the team on the day from the bar staff, waiting staff, Roots chefs and cleaners all made sure our guests and us were well fed and watered and all our guests commented on how incredible the food was! We are so grateful to the whole team at Southend Barns for making our dreams come true and helping us to have the day of our lives - not only just for us but for all our friends and family too. It was so special in every way and we are so thankful and pleased we chose Southend Barns for our day. Photos by Joanna Cleeve

We have now been married a week and I wanted to leave a review to let people know exactly how amazing a venue this is. The site itself is stunning and impeccably maintained in beautiful surroundings and very welcoming. This was only the second place we looked at and we knew straight away that this was the place we would be married. The team were all fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. Olivia was the lady that took on our big day and her communication and attention to detail make her a credit to Southend barns. The in-house Roots catering team did a spectacular job at feeding us and all of our guest commented on how good the food was. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking to get married, it’s a day I will never forget. Thank you so much Olivia and SEB!

Oh my goodness - where do we even begin, I don't think we will ever be able to thank you enough! From start to finish, Olivia and the team at Southend Barns have been nothing short of perfection. You ensured every single detail was executed flawlessly, and despite storm Darragh making an appearance on our wedding day, you made adjustments and handled it so that we didn't have to worry (Thank you so much for wrapping me in blankets so I didn't get hit by the rain / wind!) The food, was utterly sublime, so many of my guests have contacted me to compliment the food as well as the decor in the barn - it looked absolutely stunning. We had the best wedding at Southend and I couldn't recommend it enough!

We cannot recommend the Bugle enough, and want to say a huge thank you to Holly and all the staff for how special they made our wedding day on the 10/10/24. The day really could have not gone any better. All of our guests commented on how polite, cheerful and professional all those working at the Bugle were. The staff throughout the whole wedding planning process and on our wedding day went out of their way to make the build up, and day as special and as easy to navigate as possible. We had an amazing time, and the hard work really paid off. Quite a few of our guests have expressed to us about how seeing our wedding at the Bugle has made them want to get married at the venue. We couldn’t have had a better day and it’s all thanks to the hard work of the staff making our day so special, as well as the beautiful interior of the Bugle. And would recommend the Bugle to everyone, for any occasion!

Had the most fantastic wedding day and stay at the Bugle House in June! Stunning iconic venue with beautiful reception rooms and bedrooms. The food and all the staff on the day were just lovely and super helpful. Holly was amazing from start to end helping us plan and coordinate the best day ever. We loved every minute and didn’t want the day to end. Thank you so much for all your energy, enthusiasm and organisation!

We recently held our son's christening at The Bugle, and it was an absolutely lovely day from start to finish. The venue provided the perfect setting for such a special occasion, with elegant aesthetics it wasn’t difficult to dress the room. What truly stood out was the wonderful staff. From the moment we arrived, they went above and beyond to ensure that everything was taken care of; they were incredibly accommodating and responsive. I am already looking forward to hosting another event at The Bugle later this month. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a beautiful venue with fab service.

Couldn’t have asked for a better venue and experience for my 24th Birthday. The staff were all amazing and so so kind, I had the best night celebrating with my friends. The venue is gorgeous and the ladies went above and beyond for me. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to celebrate a birthday or wedding, for a memory they’ll never forget. Thank you again to everyone at The Bugle ❤️

I can’t t explain how perfect Suzanne was from the beginning until the end of the wedding shoot day! Suzanne is very responsible, organised, careful and attended to all of our needs entirely, she was always aware of everything that was in the timetable, making sure everything worked fine and making the day so easy, relaxed and one memorable event. Highly recommended!

We hired Suzanne to organise my little sisters wedding. From the outset Suzanne was absolutely charming, knowledgeable, amazingly organised and clearly passionate about what she does. She took on board all of our ideas and used her experience and expertise to bring these to fruition. She was so much fun and had so many ideas and suggestions that we hadn't even thought of. The day was absolutely beautiful we couldn't of asked for anything better. Everyone was so impressed with the attention to detail and all the little extra touches. Thank you Suzanne we could not have done it without you.

Anybody who is trying to find the solution on how to plan a succesful wedding, look no further. Booking Suzanne to help plan and orgasnise our wedding was the best thing we did. I can honestly say our wedding would not have been the same without her help. My wife and I could relax fully knowing Suzanne had everything under control on the day which made everything easy. I hope you make the same decision we did as you wont regret it!

I honestly don’t know what I would have done without Suzanne! From start to finish she handled every detail of our wedding with the utmost professionalism, care and passion. Her creativity, organization and attention to detail made our special day truly magical, the venue looked incredible, and the day ran so smoothly (despite the non-stop rain!) and the little extras she went above and beyond to do were so appreciated. I also couldn’t have asked for a more lovely, fun, thoughtful and calm person to work with over the 18 month period, she honestly made the process a joy and I totally recommend her to anyone looking for any kind of event or wedding planner! Rachael and James

Khia & Kirsty @ The Events Co were so helpful in making sure our wedding ran smoothly this Summer! They took care of furniture, catering, staffing, on the day co-ordination and moral support!! No request or question was too much and they were so amazing at making sure we had everything perfect for us - it really was the best day! Kirsty’s on the day coordination was absolutely amazing and made sure we stuck to our timings throughout the day and we always had a drink in our hands! Thank you so much, we would absolutely recommend The Events Co xxx

We decided to use Events Co for our wedding at Appuldurcombe House after meeting Khia at two Wedding fayre’s at Medina & IOW Pearl. From the very start Khia had the answers in terms of power, toilets, tables, food, decor, staff, a bar and so much more specifically at our venue and had several meetings and phone calls with us over a 22 month period building up to the big day. Consistent calls and emails with Khia and her colleague Kirsty ensured everything we had booked and wanted was ready to go and nothing was ever forced or unreasonable, if anything the opposite. As the wedding approached they really came in to their own, checking on finer details such as what flavour ice creams we preferred on the ice cream bike and the positioning of the burger van (out of a horse box) they had also provided. On the Thursday and Friday like clockwork Khia and the team were there, everything as ordered and being set up exactly how we wanted it, at one point extra staff were there to help set up the tables and decorate, something we didn’t even expect! Every member of the team worked so hard to get our wedding ready and on the day they were great with on the day coordination from Khia themself and the canapés, two course lunch (3 choices for each course) and then our burger and chips van exceeded expectation and got great feedback from our guests! Khia and the team remained on hand all day and eve to ensure rooms were switched round and pudding tables were topped up as well as keeping the guests watered at the bar! Full of good spirits, banter, accommodating our guests needs and having pics with my dad and refusing my mums supply of apple pies she had got reduced the day before! The wedding went perfectly and Events Co made it what it was without doubt! They were legends all of them and a massive part of our day being what it was. Thank you so much Adan & Harriet!

Right from the start Events and Co couldn’t have done more for us. From meeting with Khia when we just needed someone to make us feel calmer to the big details of organising everything. We loved how honest they were with everything about our wedding and bringing out ideas to life. The food on the day was also incredible, with pretty much everyone speaking to us after about how amazing our wedding food was!!! And then our coordinator Kirsty, she honestly made us feel like our wedding was the most important day she had ever been on. As I Arrived she was even carrying my nephew ,who had already taken to her, to pass her to my sister ready to goo down the aisle. She couldn’t have helped more to make sure everything went seamlessly and not just this but throughout the day she was so smooth that she just made everyone fall in love with her and even sent us some pictures and videos the next morning that she’d got for us ! She worked amazingly with all the suppliers and we honestly didn’t have a thing to worry about all day! I couldn’t recommend this company enough and will continue with everyone that I know getting married or married handing an event from health forward. Thank you so so much for making our day the BEST ever!

We used The Events Co for our wedding at New Barn Farm this summer and could not recommend them enough. Their furniture/crockery hire service was so seamless with delivery the day ahead of when we started set up which gave us plenty of time, the catering was exceptional - they worked with us to create a bespoke BBQ menu and all the guests commented afterwards how great the food was - and the team’s waiting and bar staff were so accommodating and friendly. But Kirsty’s on the day coordination was by far the star of the show and something I would recommend to any couple. Nothing phased her - specific guest requirements, room change overs, even last minute change of plans due to the weather - she made our day run so smoothly and we’ll be forever grateful!

Nadia, I cannot thank you enough for making our special day truly unforgettable. Even though it was a surprise for me, my fiancé shared how you went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfectly tailored to his vision. Your attention to detail, understanding, and dedication were remarkable. The day turned out to be one of the best moments of my entire life, and I’ll cherish it forever. I highly recommend your services to anyone looking to create magical memories. Wishing you and your incredible team continued success!

After going through a few proposal companies, I came across The Proposal Experts and glad I did! The service from Nadia was incredible from the get go. Excellent Communication and service which was reflective on the Big day. Could not of asked for anything more, the set up was incredible... even better than I had visioned. Thank you so much :) (PS she said YES)

Nadia has been fantastic in arranging my proposal in very short amount of time and is very flexible to changes and requests. The full set up was done quickly and looked amazing and exactly how I had envisioned it! She welcomed us and ensured from start to finish everything went well and was on stand by throughout the night. Highly recommended!

Nadia, thank you so much. It was everything I hoped for and more. The room set up was lovely & really well thought out. Truly made our night even more special. Highly recommend anyone wanting to make their day more special to use the proposal experts!

We hired the Pop up Photo Box for our wedding reception and it was absolutely fantastic. The props and the back drop fit well to our theme (we got married in Vegas a month ago). Kayleigh (sorry if I got this wrong) was so friendly and helpful, the guests were also loving her fun vibe. We had as many prints as we wanted, which guests could stick in the signing book that was included. I was also sent all the photos by WeTransfer just in case any were lost and I can see all the pictures taken on the night! Would definitely recommend.

We hired Aston & the team back in April 2024 for our wedding. Fast coward to August 2024 and my Husband turn’t 30. I knew I had to contact Aston and the team to get them to come to his surprise birthday party. I contacted Aston, as always so quick to respond and just so friendly. On the day, we had an issue where the initial venue cancelled on us. We sourced another venue (only 10 minutes away) and the Pop Up team were first there. I would now not have an event, without these fabulous people in attendance- they really are the best. Couldn’t recommend them more. Thanks All - Megan Roca x

We hired Pop up Photo Box from Aston Dobson Events for our wedding. They were incredible and provided a great service with a fantastically large range of props for guests to use! We really appreciated the lovely book which guests were able to put a copy of their photos in and write a message. I can’t thank the girl running the photo booth enough as she pointed out that she hadn’t seen the bride or groom have photos and alerted guests to go get us before she packed away! We really appreciated this and her giving us time to get photos with our family and friends. We also love that we have received digital copies of all the photos! Amazing service which added so much fun to the evening. We highly recommend :)

Having the pop up photo box at our wedding just made the reception! Our guests absolutely loved it and we captured some amazing memories from using the booth. Aston was really quick and informative when we spoke on email and the lady who was the attendant on the night (apologies I didn't grab her name) was amazing and seemed to be enjoying helping us take some great and hilarious photos. Thank you so much for making our day so memorable.
