Louise O'Sullivan and Emma Botherway
A Touch of Class was started by Louise in 2002 and since then has grown steadily over the years and is now well regarded in the event industry, winning a number of awards over the years.
Louise's background started in the travel industry and progressed to event management in Hotels. During her time working with the events Louise rediscovered her love of creativity and saw a gap in the market to start a business specialising in event styling and hire.
As well as a growing business to keep her busy Louise has welcomed two children into the mix making for some very chaotic days.
With a fabulous team of people working beside her it looks to be a very productive year ahead.
Emma is our Wedding Specialist and is often the one to greet you when calling or emailing us. She has an extensive background in Hospitality, working for the past 10 years in both New Zealand & internationally, and understands that great customer service is one of our main priorities.
She has now been with A Touch of Class for four years, and loves her new career. Recently, she had the chance to plan and style her own wedding, and whilst she always knew what a challenge it was, she now has a new appreciation for how much work really is involved.
This has re-established what she has always felt about the styling and decor side of weddings, that it should be a fun experience, and the less vendors you have to deal with the better! A Touch of Class is really proud to be able to offer you a service including all aspects of styling, from centrepieces to ceremony decorations and bouquets.
