Venue Decoration & Set Up

If you are just needing that extra help with providing some decoration for your venue should it be roof drapes or just general help with setting up – KG Events is here to help at your wedding venue.

Or maybe you have hired a hall and needing someone to take the pressure off and set it all up for you, this is no problem for us, we have a fantastic team that can help make your wedding day look perfect.

On The Day Co-Ordination

K.G Events can also be there on the day to provide that co-ordination to make sure everything runs smoothly. Probably more suited to a venue other than a hotel. We can do as little or as much as required. From being there to make sure everything is the way you want it, greeting your guests and direct them to where they should be going and serving them drinks, liaising with catering staff with regards to timings for serving, being master of ceremonies to even tidying up at the end of the night. We are here to help no matter how much help you need.

Full Wedding/Event Planning

We can provide full wedding planning for your special day taking all that extra pressure away from you.

We can assure you that you’d be kept up-to-date with everything every step of the way and your wedding day will be organised just the way you want it but without the hours of work required.

Local weddings and also further afield organised. Costing is based on requirements.

Supplier/Venue Sourcing:

Struggling to find that perfect supplier for something for your wedding or maybe just don’t have the time to do all the searching, just let us know what you’re looking for and we will come back with all availability for all suppliers we can source for you. Saving you hours of searching and all you need to do then is decide which one you’d like to go for when all the information is in front of you, saving you hours of work. We charge per supplier – get in touch for more details and costs.

Wedding Stationery & Favours All our wedding stationery and favours is designed by Katy and all handmade to perfection. Each invitation is based on our client’s ideas. We take the time to get all your ideas and colour schemes and go away and make up various designs for you to choose from. Even mixing and matching them if required until we find that wedding invitation you were looking for. Your guest’s first impression of what your wedding day is going to be like is based on your wedding invitations and we are able to provide you with that “wow” invitations for your guests.

Balloon Decoration

We provide balloon decoration at your venue in the colours of your choice. We only use high quality latex balloons which insures they last the full duration of your wedding day. A huge selection of colours are available, get in touch if you’d like any samples.
