Our Background

After designing events and exhibition stands globally, we were looking for a Scottish wedding venue that matched our outdoor and adventure lifestyle.  Finding no suitable options, we started our own wedding venue tipi business!

 

We understand the challenges of launching and managing a small event business, especially the need for efficiency, meeting event deadlines and client expectations.

 

Our experience also includes working for one of the UK’s largest temporary structure companies, managing 35,000 components and ensuring they were in the right place at the right time.

 

Armed with a combined 38 years of experience in the event industry, we love assisting fellow businesses in becoming more professional, efficient and profitable.
