Corporate Events

Whether it’s a large business conference, workshop, a product or new business launch or an event to raise brand awareness, we’re able to support you with the entire process, from sourcing the right venue to arranging catering, entertainment and speakers.  With great organisation skills as standard, we also excel at those finer details, such as themed tables for a special dinner, that can make all the difference to the overall look and feel of your event.  A well-balanced programme of team-building activities as part of a conference or event package is an additional option.  Get it right, and your sales team might be inspired to go out there and secure its next big contract! 

We’re on hand for you every step of the way and will help as little or as much as you would like.   We’ve got flair and creativity, we’re super organised and we’re 100% dedicated to making your day absolutely perfect!   I spend time talking through your ideas and objectives. This enables me to come up with suggestions and put together ideas, supporting you throughout the entire process and acting as a sounding board when decisions are difficult to make.   With over 20 years of event management experience under our belt, we really do know how to organise an event to remember.

Some of the corporate events we have worked on over the years include:

  • Exhibition stands at Country Living Fair and CLA Game Fair
  • Reception for the Mauritanian British Business Council at the British Museum, London
  • The Big Business Event
  • A Woman’s World
  • Business Conferences
  • Business Exhibitions
  • Workshops
  • Networking Events
  • Business launches
  • Fashion Shows
  • Charity Dinners
  • Photo Shoots

If you’re looking to capture your event via a video or via some photography, we work with an extremely talented videographer and photographer, who will bring your ideas to life.  Just provide us with your management brief and budget and let us work with you to create your perfect event.

Weddings

Did someone mention a wedding?  

We absolutely love planning a great wedding!  

We know that organising this most special of events can be overwhelming… there is just so much to think about, and sometimes the finer details of the day are just the proverbial “straw which breaks the camel’s back” in terms of your stress levels!  We’re on hand for you every step of the way and will help as little or as much as you would like.   We’ve got flair and creativity, we’re super organised and we’re 100% dedicated to making your day absolutely perfect!   

Our full wedding planning service (Pot of Honey) gives complete peace of mind, allowing you to enjoy this most romantic and memorable occasion with your family and friends without a care in the world.  We’ll source the right venue, take care of theming and styling and mine our little red book of award-winning wedding suppliers for you!  

We spend time getting to know you both, your personalities, your likes and dislikes, the quirky things about you and what makes you tick.   This enables us to come up with suggestions and put together ideas, supporting you throughout the entire process and acting as a sounding board when decisions are difficult to make.   With over 20 years of wedding planning experience under our belts, we really do know how to make dreams come true.

Queen Bee To The Rescue

You may have already started planning your wedding and are now feeling rather overwhelmed with the amount that’s on your ‘to do’ list!   

If this sounds familiar, we can come to the rescue, pick up the pieces and sit down with you and provide an action-plan to alleviate those worries.   We’re the experts and are happy to assist with any outstanding items on your wedding list and advise accordingly.   We work with many first-class wedding suppliers in the area and are happy to take control of absolutely everything on your behalf.   

You may also find that your spend is spiralling out of control at this point, so we can assist with cost cutting and alternative options.  We’re available too to help on the big day itself with deliveries, catering, styling, table layout and seating plans – it can be highly embarrassing if a guest has been missed off the list and this, believe me, does happen at even the smartest of events.

You may just require help with sourcing some reputable and professional suppliers in the area.  With our little red book of award-winning professionals to call on, we are happy to organise anything for you, including venue sourcing, catering, cakemaking, photography, floristry, wedding car hire or props, saving you time and money.

Queen Bee For A Day

…is our on-the-day wedding management package.   We believe everyone deserves to enjoy their wedding day without having to worry about a thing, so we’d love to be there for you to ensure everything is absolutely spot on.   

Even if we haven’t been involved in planning your wedding, you may welcome having our assistance on the day, especially if the venue you have chosen has no dedicated wedding planner on site.   We can meet with you prior to your big day to go through all your plans and to make a detailed check list of your suppliers.   You really don’t want the hassle of setting up the venue, taking deliveries, or ensuring the tables and seating plan are correct. Let us take the strain, leaving you free to enjoy the day with your friends and family.

I was an exhibitor at a wedding fair held at the Angel & Royal Hotel, Grantham. Deborah was the person who organised this and I was really impressed with her regular communication, attention to detail and her understanding of our brand and associated brands being represented at the event. Very organised and professional to work with put together with a lovely friendly manner.

Debbie is an absolute star and a delight to work with. She is extremely organised and makes running events a breeze. She works very closely with clients to put their vision into reality. She always goes above and beyond and is a real help to any business.

I have had the pleasure of trading at a few of the vintage fairs Deborah has organised. Not only is she a very warm, kind, lovely lady, she is very organised, helpful and puts 110% effort into making sure every angle is covered when organising the vintage fairs. She always handled any problems that may have occurred swiftly, without fuss or knowledge to any of the other stall holders. The publicity she arranged for the fairs was brilliant…I would love to work with Deborah in the future as it has always been a pleasure.

Wanted to say a big thank you for all your hard work that went into such a great day yesterday, the music and dancers were brilliant and certainly kept customers in the room for longer! The feedback from customers is that they really enjoyed themselves and were asking when’s the next one! You did a great job and just wanted to say a big thank you !!

Deborah was my colleague at the Woodland Trust for three years, when she worked as PA to the Head of Communications and Engagement. During this time, she organised events as diverse as a bushcraft team-building away day for the department, a major marketing stand at the Country Living Fair in London and the charity’s Staff Conference for over 300 employees. Deborah has phenomenal organisational skills, delivering events on time and on budget across a broad spectrum, but they are underpinned by a genuine empathy for people and an ability to manage with kindness and respect. This makes her a real pleasure to do business with.

Deborah is fabulous to work with. She recently helped me to organise and promote some workshops that I was running for my coaching business, Emma Kate Dawson Coaching. She was professional, very organised and planned everything to perfection. The workshops were fully booked and any small issues were dealt with quickly and efficiently. I cannot recommend her highly enough and I look forward to working with Deborah again in 2019

We searched all over the East Midlands area for the perfect venue for our recent outdoor wedding and when we came across Buckminster Park and Lakeside, we looked no further. It’s the most romantic and private setting and one that our guests were talking about for weeks after. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue, and the support we received from our event manager, Deborah, made our planning stress free and perfect in every way! Thank you so much
Veronica & Laura Kettle
'We engaged Debbie's services to support us in organising our daughter's wedding at the Lakeside, Buckminster in July 2021. Throughout what can only be described as an extremely challenging time due to the pandemic, Debbie was consistently professional and supportive, ensuring we could plough on with confidence in the knowledge she was on hand with solutions as the situation evolved. She was a pleasure to work with, never anything short of good humoured and cheerful and on the wedding day itself, was instrumental in checking on the final details and greeting our guests. We have no hesitation in recommending her and wish her all the continued success she thoroughly deserves.
Sue Lake
We had the pleasure of meeting Debbie when my husband and I hired out Buckminster Barn as our wedding venue. From the moment we met her she was so warm and welcoming! We hired her to help us plan and to oversee our wedding day to make sure things went smoothly and she made us feel at ease at every step. I don’t know how much I would have panicked on the day if we didn’t have Debbie there- she totally kept me sane! Without a doubt I would recommend Debbie to anyone and we cannot wait to have another big family party so we can hire her again! Thank you Debbie! Xoxo

Debbie was fantastic right from the moment we made contact online to help us on our wedding day, she had lots of ideas and remained calm and helpful every step of the way. She was friendly, enthusiastic and professional whenever we needed some extra support. Everyone needs a Debbie !!
Clare Andrews
Debbie has been an absolute joy to work with throughout our wedding. From planning months before and on the day. No task was too big or too troublesome. Throughout the planning Debbie was responsive and helpful to all our queries. On the day she really went above and beyond to make sure all the little touches were in place and the guests were enjoying the day. Debbie really gave us peace of mind during the whole wedding.
Luke Panton
Deborah is just the loveliest. She is friendly, highly organised and makes you feel at ease and that everything is under control! She helped me on our wedding day and ensured everything was in the right place at the right time and it took a huge weight off my shoulders. I strongly recommend her services!
