What is your most memorable wedding?
A client was a huge fan of penguins and wanted their day based around a theme of penguins in the Ashdown forest. I sourced penguins from all across the world to create a black and white penguin themed wedding with a huge amount of detail in a vintage styled venue. I still to this day have penguins appearing!

Describe your typical process with a couple.
When contacting SJW Events I would ideally like to either meet for a chat or talk over the phone about your special day. We would discuss your ideas, thoughts and vision for the day followed by guests, themes, location and any other ideas. I would then put together a plan and quote for you both. On booking I would meet with you at your venue and create a detailed picture of the day and along with suppliers. I would work with you over the coming months to create the prefect day with regular meetings.
