Report
TLDR: I cannot recommend this company. I work as an event planner for a small organisation; as such I rely heavily on third party suppliers providing a good service. I received a quote from my initial request within two days. I took some time to review the quote and eventually followed up asking if there was still availability to process the order (it was small and I understand small suppliers sometimes have to skip small orders). I did not receive a response and phoned the company number the next day. I was told the person I was speaking to wasn't in the office, but that everything was in hand

Fantastic company with genuine, polite, courteous and very professional staff. I am amazed by the other poor review as this has never been my experience when dealing with this company. Totally reliable and fully recommend

Really great service from these guys for our wedding. They turned up when they said they would and dealt with everything efficiently. All the stuff they hired to us was great too. Will definitely use again!
