I set up this company after over ten years in the entertainment industry. ​Establishing and maintaining connections within the film and television sector ​offers my clients an immense pool of some of the most talented creatives in the ​North West:

Hair and Makeup artists; sound, lighting and power equipment fuelled by ​renewable energy; drone operators; transport companies; even security ​personnel!

Being a self-employed actor and filmmaker has given me the ability to spin many ​plates, develop a keen eye for detail and hold creative vision ensuring I deliver on ​that vision in the most caring, efficient, ethical way.

Clients can be sure that my ongoing work as an actor enables me to really see a ​person for their essence and draw that out of them and into their event - acting ​is about people at the end of the day - and people make events memorable.

I pride myself not only on the quality of ​the work I produce but on ​straightforward and affordable pricing:

Many event planners charge on a ​percentage basis which can get ​confusing and it’s hard to see what the ​final total will be. At In The Event Of, I ​give you one number so you know ​exactly how much you’ll spend.

“Amy helped to plan our wedding in 2021, and she was absolutely ​invaluable. Not only did she help to source a tipi hire company ​that completely fit within our vision and budget, but she sourced ​a selection of local caterers who fit our dietary requirements and ​could accommodate the outdoor wedding reception. She liaised ​with our photographer to ensure all of the photographs we ​wanted were captured, including group and individual shots, and ​co-ordinated guests on the day. Alongside this, she decorated ​the interior of the tipi and the surrounding exterior woodlands to ​bring our fairytale vision to life. I would trust her to do it all over ​again, and can’t recommend her enough. She took so much ​stress and time off our hands in the run-up to the big day, as well ​as on the day of. We basically just had to show up! If you’re ​looking to bring your vision to life, Amy is the one to hire!”

“Amy was with us every step of the way. After discussing colour ​ways and decor ideas, she put together a mood board which we ​loved. Her attention to detail is amazing whilst keeping to the ​original brief. Attended all our visits to the venue to discuss every ​detail and picked up on finer points we hadn’t thought of. Less is ​more was our vibe and Amy nailed it. Small intimate wedding with ​neutrals and greens with the odd pop of happy colours. ​Organised everything with venue from ceremony music, table ​dressings, drinks reception, photographer, confetti, meal and ​cake and DJ, without our need to worry. She even made sure ​bride and bridesmaids had their comfy dancing shoes under the ​seats to change for the evening and on hand umbrellas, for the ​photos just in case ! Everything arrived as if by magic and looked ​stunning. Amy provided an organised thoughtful service. It was ​perfect and took all the stress and worry away for us to just relax ​and enjoy our special day.”
