Wow - booking Kirstin and receiving our bespoke painting was genuinely one of the best things from our wedding day. I hope this review can convince you to make the same great decision! From our first conversation with Kirstin, I was impressed with her friendliness, open-ness and professionalism. She was clearly passionate about her work, and matched my enthusiasm to make personal tweaks. We spoke through what I was looking for, and I never felt any pressure from Kirstin - she was open and flexible and I didn't feel the slightest bit of sales 'pushiness' to book. We were able to choose the colour scheme, location/time of day, and what we wanted the painting to focus on. Kirstin has so many examples on her website which helped to guid me on what I did and didn't like, and we worked out some new ideas too. I went back to Kirstin with questions/suggestions many times through the planning process and she always seemed happy to hear from me. On the day, we were forecast rain right up until the ceremony. I was set on having a painting of the outside of the building, and I couldn't believe it when I heard that Kirstin has set herself up under an umbrella in the pouring rain to start the painting before the ceremony - what incredible dedication! She then continued to paint through the drinks reception, adding guests to the picture. Top tip - we gave Kirstin a print out of pictures of all of the important people to capture, and she was able to focus on including our parents, siblings etc. Kirstin then finished the painting off while we sat down to eat, had it framed, and presented it back to us after desert (it was even wrapped to be opened like a gift!). The painting itself... we were blown away. It may be obvious to say but it really is a work of art! The colours are beautiful, the attention to detail, and it feels like you are looking right in through a window at our day. I can't believe that we have a bespoke piece of art in our home, from our wedding, to treasure forever. Overall... I cannot over emphasise how thrilled we are to have found Kirstin, and booked her for our wedding. She went above and beyond for us, and we are so grateful. I think it was the best value for money we had for our entire wedding - we had a full day of Kirstin's time, a bespoke piece of art, and essentially entertainment for our guests too. She was a joy to work with, and we will treasure her work for the rest of our lives. Thank you Kirstin!!!

I organised for Aston to come and sing on the doorstep for my friends 50th birthday. It was easily the best 10 minutes of the day. She absolutely loved it. Aston has a beautiful voice, really enthusiastic and communication and organisation was excellent. Would definitely hire again

We saw the signature canvas at a wedding fayre and fell in love. What a cool idea! Penny was fantastic in helping create the design and encouraging people on the day. Even the artistically challenged like myself gave it a go and they helped make it look good. After the event and the final touches were done it was delivered to our house and now hangs proudly on the wall. Now everyone comes in immediately has to find their own special mark the did and gets to re live our special day on the unique peice of art. Amazing idea. Amazing art. Amazing people.

Thank you for a wonderful night. My guests have not stopped talking about it. The fabulous staff was amazing and great with kids too. We cannot recommend enough. We have lots coming up soon, so we will be in touch.

Stephen Simmons came and provided his services to our wedding for the entire day on Friday, and to be honest, it was the best money we spent!! He couldn’t have been more helpful if he tried, making the whole day fun, entertaining and exciting with high energy! He was there well before the guests arrived, helped set up some phones that we’d had liked rigged around the ceremony to record it. He entertained guests and pointed them in the right direction and played games with us all throughout the day! We also made use of his speaker equipment for the ceremony - he allowed us to send him a personal playlist which he played in the background, also giving us the option to use one of his pre-made ones if we needed to. He provided us with microphones for the speeches, to which he introduced each speaker with such professionalism! On top of all of this, his magic is unmatched!! We were all absolutely amazed with his close up magic and even those who tried to figure out how he’d done it failed to do so! AND TO TOP IT OFF, he got in touch with us a few days after to send us a sneaky little 30 second video that he’d recorded on the day, which was a really lovely surprise!! Considering we didn’t have a videographer, this made me really happy!!! Steven is such a talented bloke and we thoroughly enjoyed having him at our wedding!! We would recommend him time and time again and hope to see him again in the future!! ALL THE BEST STEPHEN! Love from The Wrays!!

We hired David Chapman for entertainment at our daughter and son in law’s wedding and we would highly recommend him and his services. From the beginning, nothing was too much trouble, the communication was great and he went the extra mile to ensure that everything would run smoothly. On the day, David was very friendly and professional, he ran his « show » exactly as we arranged: a very low key and relaxed entertainment. The balloon work was amazing, leaving young and old mesmerised! It kept everyone entertained when needed and really was a hit! Thank you David for helping to make the wedding reception a success, we would definitely recommend and book again for another event! From James and Florence Smith (Gosport)

We wanted an artist to make portraits of our guests as wedding favours and as an alternative to a photo booth. Eleanor’s work is so stylish, she managed to capture our guests and the vibe really well. She worked really fast on the day and managed to get almost everyone. Communicating with her was really easy and she’s great value for money - plus our guests ended up with favours they actually want to keep. I’m very happy we worked with her.

From the first enquiry to last Communication, what a great company to have shared our amazing day with. Ethan was fabulous with communication, amazing entertainment on the day and a fantastic person. Ethan made it easy to choose our choice and all the actors were marvellous. The entertainment engaged all of our guests and they still talk about it to this day. If you love escape rooms and murder mystery’s, or would like something different for your big day. Get in contact with these guys. Worth every penny and more. A massive thank you.

Hampshire Games were such a fun addition to our wedding at Froyle Park! They set up an awesome crazy golf course in the garden, and it was a huge hit with our guests of all ages. The course was really well-designed—fun, engaging, and just the right level of challenge to keep everyone entertained without taking things too seriously. It added a great touch of relaxed fun to the afternoon, and we had so many compliments about how much people enjoyed it. The team was professional, friendly, and had everything set up and ready to go without any hassle. We’d highly recommend Hampshire Games if you’re looking to add something interactive and memorable to your wedding or event!

thanks kayleigh, we were so pleased and your energy adapts and melts into the space so wonderfully. a pleasure to have worked with you. x
