Based in Arundel, West Sussex, I serve clients across Sussex, Surrey, and the South East, covering venues from historic manor houses to coastal and barn celebrations.My portfolio demonstrates expertise in diverse settings including marquee weddings, tipi celebrations, and luxury events at prestigious locations like Goodwood House and Gravetye Manor. I offer pre-wedding consultations to understand client preferences, deliver high-resolution digital galleries with no hidden fees, and maintain a 24-hour response time for urgent inquiries.
