Our beginnings as a simple linen & chair cover supplier back in 2008 has flourished to now include a whole range of amazing items to make your event extra special! After opening a West End premises in 2011 we then moved on to a much bigger space just outside the West End in 2018 – giving customers an opportunity to see our range first-hand and talk to us one-on-one (something we know many of our customers really appreciate).
In addition to our team of events staff, we also have an experienced florist on hand to assist with all floral enquiries – whatever your enquiry, we are always just a short phonecall, email or visit away to answer any questions! We still pride ourselves on being a family business that cares as much about each individual event now as when we first started – small enough to care yet big enough to deliver!

We have previously won the Confetti Awards in 2016. We are proud to have won our category of Event Decor & Linen Hire in VOWS Awards multiple times & have been nominated a total of 8 times.
