We love to organise all types of celebrations, in particular the recent trend of having a ‘gender reveal' party - they're so exciting and there's always such a buzzy atmosphere! We also love personalized gifts and favours.
Fun fact… We once planned an Alice in ‘Sunderland' themed afternoon tea party!
