We had our wedding at The Barn at Avington last week and it was honestly perfect. The venue has the perfect mix of outdoor and indoor space to personalise and make your own and the location is beautiful. Beth is absolutely amazing and will help make your ideas come to life! We couldn't thank her enough for helping make our wedding day the day it was. It was such a fun, relaxed day and we've had (and still getting) so many compliments from our friends and family.

The most incredible venue in a beautiful setting! We got married here in 2019 and it was perfect! Relaxed atmosphere, beautifully run and a perfect blank canvas to make truly yours. This venue has a very special place in my heart

Absolutely stunning venue and a really lovely team. I had a DIY wedding here and it was ideal - nice blank canvas and a really supportive team to make it happen! We also got a tonne of compliments from our guests about how beautiful the site was - thank you team!!

Our wedding was an absolute dream come true!! I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible work the Matthew Oliver Weddings team did to bring our vision to life. Matthew and Bertie were our main planners, but their entire team, including Danny and Andrea, was an absolute dream to work with. While you expect luxury wedding planners like Matthew Oliver Weddings to be professional, detail-oriented, creative, and excellent problem-solvers, what truly stood out was how much joy and warmth they brought to the process. Planning a cross-continent, multicultural 4 day destination wedding in under six months could easily have been stressful, but they made it a fun and manageable project. I genuinely looked forward to our regular Zoom meetings. On the day of the wedding, the weather was less than ideal, but Matthew, Bertie, and their team jumped into action, seamlessly executing solutions. Above all, they took the time and care to ensure I was feeling calm and reassured, which speaks volumes about their empathy and dedication. Their ability to create an atmosphere of joy and calmness went beyond anything I ever expected. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how wonderful Matthew, Bertie, Danny, and Andrea were throughout the entire wedding weekend. They provided a truly memorable experience for everyone. A huge thank you to Matthew, Bertie, Danny and the team for going above and beyond. We highly recommend Matthew Oliver Weddings to anyone looking for a truly exceptional wedding planning experience! And I'd be happy to speak with anyone who has questions about the client experience.

We cannot love the Matthew Oliver team more!!! The strength of the Matthew Oliver team is their relationships, which when it comes to weddings, is one of the most important qualities for a wedding planner. Because of their close ties with everyone in the industry, we were able to pull off an incredible destination wedding with ease and in budget. They were extremely resourceful when it came to all of our wild requests— they found a way each time to execute our vision. Lastly, what you find is that you spend most of your time with your wedding planners and vendors during the wedding and planning process. You definitely want to like these people during such an important moment. We are lucky to still call Matthew, Bertie and team our friends and they will definitely be in our lives forever!

When my husband and I initially met with Georgia at MatthewOliver Weddings, there was an instant connection. After a few weeks of initial planning, we had some unforseen circumstances arise and had to stop with proceeding on our planning. When we were ready to resume the wedding plans, Georgia was able to work us back into her schedule. We spent the next year and half planning our dream European adventure. Georgia was the perfect planner for us. She took all of our initial requirements (location, airport proximity, historical property, handicap accessibility) and found the perfect venue. Georgia managed every detail and vendor throughout the entire process, culminating in the best weekend of our lives. From sourcing local Flamanco dancers for the welcome party, to scheduling and planning site visits and tastings, to the carefully thoughout stationary, Georgia and the Matthew Oliver team took care of everything to insure that we had the best time with our guests. We cannot thank Georgia and the team enough for providing us with a weekend full of laughs, friendships, and memories that we'll cherish for the rest of our lives.

Absolutely thrilled to share my experience working with the Matthew Oliver Wedding Planning team, especially Georgia. As a bridal makeup artist, I often find that wedding suppliers can sometimes feel like afterthoughts. But working with Georgia was a whole different experience—she was a true partner every step of the way! From the start of Olivia’s wedding planning journey, Georgia was not only organised and professional but genuinely caring and thoughtful. She made sure that on the wedding day itself, I had everything I needed to do my best work, checking in on me and even making sure I was hydrated and had something to eat. It may sound simple, but these thoughtful gestures mean the world, especially on busy wedding mornings! What really set Georgia apart was her support even after the wedding day had come and gone. She took the time to follow up and share all the beautiful photographs, allowing me to have those memories for my portfolio, which was such a generous touch. It’s rare to find someone who understands the importance of these details, and Georgia does so with such warmth and authenticity. As a supplier, I can’t recommend the Matthew Oliver team enough. Their commitment to creating not just beautiful weddings but a truly supportive environment for every vendor involved is outstanding. Thank you, Georgia, for making my experience so memorable—you are an absolute gem! Lot's of Love, Brooke Lilias Make Up

Hazel & Natalie literally made our dreams come a reality!! They made the planning of decorating our venue (new place hotel) so easy right from the start of booking all the way up to our wedding day. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them & communication was absolutely amazing. We literally cannot thank them enough for making our day so perfect!

Thank you to Hazel and the team for everything. Event perfection decorated our wedding venue at New Place hotel and oh my what a wonderful job they did. Our venue looked absolutely stunning. The spectacular ceiling canopy with the lights was such a show stopper. Hazel and the team went above and beyond for us and made our wedding dream vision come true. We cannot thank you enough. If you are looking for an interior designer/wedding decorations to hire, look no more Hazel and the team at Event perfection are the team you need. Flawless job. Thank you once again. Wonderful service. Lots of love, Mr and Mrs Inkpen

I had the pleasure of working with team for my Indian engagement. It was the first time they’d done an event of this kind but there was no hesitation and they knew they’d be able to create my vision. They were able to produce an elegant and breathtaking set up. They were organised, the best time keeping and reached out with options and alternatives if certain ideas weren’t doable within the budget! I’m so glad I chose them and can’t wait to work with them again!

Matt & Rach catered our wedding in June. The food was excellent, attention to detail fantastic, collaboration with the other suppliers seamless, and all our interactions were so friendly and calming. They're adept catering events of any size (we had 150), and more than happy to go off menu and create anything you want which was very meaningful to us. It was really helpful getting their advice on other parts of our wedding not strictly catering related as well, which they were always happy to help out with. Cannot recommend enough and a great local business to support. Thanks to both of you and your team!

Martha Hollis catered for our wedding in September and I really couldn't recommend them highly enough. Ever since the first phone call they were so friendly, efficient, quick to reply and unbelievably flexible with all our asks - nothing fazed them! The tasting was great fun and they happily tweaked the menu which allowed us to have some personal elements to the dishes which meant a lot. The bar staff were incredible at serving the numerous different drinks we wanted to offer (frozen margaritas from a slushie machine were a hit!) and Rach made the most stunning (and delicious) wedding cake. They took all the stress out of any of the organisational aspects by liaising with all the other suppliers. On the day they set up the tables beautifully and took great care with all the small details we had requested. So many guests commented on how amazing the service was and how charming everyone was. We had 150 guests and canapes, 3 plated courses and big pan mac and cheese for later in the evening. All of it was utterly delicious and during the reception they ensured everyone always had a full glass and plenty of canapes! The quality of the food was outstanding and Matt and team made everything seem so easy and run like clockwork. They were an integral part of making our wedding day so wonderful and we couldn't thank you enough.

The Martha Hollis team catered for our son's wedding last Saturday. They were a big part of a very happy day. Every aspect of the service was beyond excellent - the food was absolutely delicious, the staff so efficient and charming, the organisation faultless. We cannot thank them enough and would recommend to everyone.

The Martha Hollis team did a fantastic job catering for us. We wanted a relaxed vibe and their big pan cookery was perfect. All of the food was fantastic and the team was very efficient without being intrusive and kept things as stress-free as possible.

John and the team were absolutely fantastic! They were incredibly responsive to all my emails and questions leading up to the event. We hired 360 photobooth, lettering and silent disco. On the day, they were on-site exactly when promised, and handled all my queries with patience and a smile, even when I was a bit indecisive. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and will definitely use their services again. Thank you so much Invite Team!

Invite events limited provided us with some light up letters for a party and I couldn’t fault them. They arrived and set up whilst I wasn’t at the venue, which was a nice surprise to arrive too. They picked the best spot to set up and it looked great. They were prompt to collect at the end of the evening. Would highly recommend.

Yesterday evening was a Diamond Wedding 60 years Celebration in Lyndhurst. John Smart, the DJ, was absolutely fantastic. The music played was perfectly chosen and really got everybody up dancing. His wonderfully charismatic style, smiling face, celebration announcements and cooperation were more than brilliant. Thank you John for making the evening extra special.

We had the pleasure of working with Kirsty, Khia and the entire team at Events Co. for our wedding, and their contribution was nothing short of extraordinary. From the start, we received the most professional and honest service. We appreciated that nothing was forced on us and we could pick exactly what we needed for our big day. Nothing was too much trouble and whatever we requested along the way was met with a smile and was delivered efficiently. They supported us closely the entire time and helped us with the entire set up of the venue and organised everything to run smoothly the weeks leading up to the wedding. From our first meeting we got the comforting feeling that they genuinely care for each of their clients and understand what you are visioning easily within couple of minutes. We would recommend them to be hired as your wedding coordinators as they are the best in the events field and would give you the personal touch and care that you need especially at some of the most stressful weeks before the big day. Communication smooth and efficient throughout the planning process, and they were always prompt with in addressing our questions and concerns. Even when there were few stressful moments, Kirsty and Khia already though ahead and had a solution for every issue that occurred or may have occurred. On set-up day everyone went above and beyond to make everything look beautiful and better than what we even imagined. A big shout out to Koo, who designed all our stationary and put up with all of our demands even until the week before printing. We would also like to mention that everything we hired was in great condition and the furniture looked great when all set up. Thank you all for the endless support and your friendly and professional service! We will keep recommending you again and again! Best wishes, Pavleta & Ashley

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!

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!

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!

Pop Up Photo Box was an amazing addition to our wedding celebration!! The guests absolutely loved it, and we have loved looking through our guestbook at all the different photos! Aston was brilliant; he replied promptly, nothing was too much trouble and he made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. Charlie was our attendant for the day and she was incredible!! She had wonderful energy, interacted with the guests and made sure everyone had so much fun. There was a wide selection of props and it was such a hit, people kept going back again and again! I cannot recommend Pop Up Photo Box enough!

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.

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 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 :)

If you're looking for a caterer, Pip is who you need! Her excitement when discussing our wedding was joyful. She came to look at our site and planned a menu all around our wishes for it to be local, mostly vegetarian, foraged, sustainable crockery etc. On the wedding day itself she battled Storm Anton and made windbreaks to cook a whopping warming paella, and all the dishes were DELICIOUS. Our guests raved about the flavours and also the generous quantities. One groomsman had 4 helpings I think..! We are SO grateful to you Pip for making our special day extra wonderful. Xx Jo & Siôn

I have just had a weekend retreat at The School of Creative Wellness. The whole weekend was catered for by WOOW and it was beyond excellent. Our chosen menu was veggie and if I could eat veggie food like that every day I would convert immediately! Chef Pip is an alchemist of flavour and nutrition ♥️

It was so easy to put together a menu for our family lunch as Pip had so many tasty options as examples, she catered to our guests allergies no problem. It was all dropped off on time ready to serve and delicious with the hot food piping hot. the food was fantastic, all our guests loved it and we’ve been enjoying the leftovers afterwards.

WooW catered for my 60th birthday and Pip and her team did an amazing job. The food and the service was excellent. Thank you 😊

What a beautiful place, so pretty and calming for funerals and other ceremonies. The staff were amazing and made us feel very welcome, and we are forever grateful to Steels' funeral directors and Claire, our ceremony speaker it was just perfect for our needs and wishes. The garden room was stunning with it beautiful garden view and the river running through. Celia would have been very pleased we chose you to help us send her onto her new garden up above x. Thank you so much x Parking place to help to others there is a big car park over the road from the little roundabout it is set back a little bit from the traffic lights and pedestrian crossing big red building 9 floors and 3 pounds to park for the day! Very close to Chesil House xx

As soon as we walked into Chesil House we knew it was the perfect venue for our wedding, it ticked every box it even has a lift for those in our family that would need one. Charlotte and her team were amazing, nothing was ever too much trouble, everything was just seamless and stress free, even when the Limo we booked was too long to fit into the yard, Charlotte sorted it. There was never any need for us to panic or stress. Our wedding day was perfect in every way, Chesil House, the beautiful gardens, everything was stunning. One of our guests was unfortunately taken unwell early in the day, everyone at Chesil house rallied around to make sure everything was taken care of. We were continually updated and knew that they were in safe hands and being looked after which helped us to continue enjoying our special day. We cannot recommend having your wedding at Chesil House highly enough. We had the perfect day with so many memories that we will cherish forever. Thank you Charlotte, thank you everyone at Chesil House.

Staff were very good and thoughtful. Anyone needing Chesil House is likely need a caring environment, so would recommend when compared to the alternatives.

A beautiful venue and very attentive staff.

Suzie & Steve and the entire Events 4 u team were incredible in providing our centre pieces, lighting and all of our finishing touches at our recent wedding at Audley Woods Hotel. The day was incredible and the beautiful blossom arch and trees were complimented by all of our guests!

We contacted our local Events For U at Pack Lane, Basingstoke to talk about decorations for our forthcoming Golden Wedding party. Although we could have looked on line we decided to go and see them f-f l easy to this was not too much trouble. We were given great guidance on what was available so we were able to make an informed decision on what we actually wanted. We had black and gold table balloons which looked lovely and we decided to have, across the back of the chairs, gold glitter bands. Against the black table cloths and chairs they looked stunning and well worth using them to enhance the room. We also had the large 50 sign which was all lit up and looked lovely. Thank you.

We used events for u for a starlit cloth for our wedding. They were very easy to communicate with and the cloth looked great. Would highly recommend.

Suzie was absolutely amazing! From when we first met to the day itself. The room looked amazing and Suzie went over and above to deliver, including customised silver ferns in the chair sashes. Thank you SO much!
