What has been your most memorable wedding that you have worked on?

 

Three will always have a place:-

 

Marquee in Suffolk – amazing love and happiness

The Orangery – the sense of fun and warmth, everyone smiled ALL THE TIME

Marquee in Sussex – many years ago, the first time I felt that lighting makes an amazing difference.

Weathering three recessions without making redundancies.
