I am so grateful to THAT event company! They swooped in only a couple of weeks ahead of our wedding to provide the most incredible details that really served to make the day and night magical. They provided beautiful lighting for us as well as many other little pieces that helped tie everything together. They were the ultimate professionals to work with. 10/10 recommend for all your events!

Hired some great lighting and sound gear for our wedding. They were really helpful in making suggestions, really nice to work with and the quality of the equipment was great. Would love to work with them again if we're ever running another event!

We had booked 'THAT event Company' for our wedding as we were very impressed by the services offered. Unfortunately due to the pandemic we have had to cancel our wedding, however in our time of working with this company we have found them to be extremely friendly, helpful and very reassuring during such challenging times. When my partner and I re-book our wedding, we will be sure to get in contact with James and his team to use their services again.

I wholeheartedly recommend THAT event company. They truly went above and beyond, and exceeded all of my expectations. We hired THAT event to do the light and sound for our wedding. The process to get the quote was efficient, and it was easy to make changes. After a couple of e-mails they had understood exactly what we needed and wanted for the day. Our wedding was unfortunately cancelled due to COVID-19, and James was extremely helpful and supportive. When we start planning our wedding again (and any other event) there is no doubt that we will go back to THAT event :)

The guys at That Event Company were absolutely fantastic. From initial inquiry to delivery they communicated perfectly and advised on solutions to stage our event from their extensive experience with similar events. The technicians provided for the event made the night run completely smoothly and it was completely hassle free. Wound highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again.
