How is it already October?? Realising there's less

How is it already October?? Realising there's less than 90 days left of the year has got us reflecting on our last summer season. Last year we hosted 11 functions in November alone and it was a lot. (oh and we built a pergola)

This included two bespoke Murder Mysteries for work dos, a wedding, a Garden Party, a High Tea, and a Birthday Party for a beautiful dog!

Luckily for us, we're not that crazy anymore so we've limited our calendar to make sure we don't burn out and provide everyone the best service we can. If you want to host a Work Do or End of Year Function with us this November, get in touch now because there's only 3 spaces left.
