Meet Kate

Bespoke Luxury Events Planner - 20+ years experience

Meet Kate, the founder of Kate Park Events and still very much hands-on. She is full of new and exciting ideas, a perfectionist with the practical skills and expertise to deliver your event on time and on budget.

Her clients always eulogise about Kate’s management and her ability to think big, whilst keeping her feet firmly on the ground.

Kate says, “I entered into the world of events at the age of 21, starting out as a PA. With a background in performing arts I found all the elements I’d learnt in my training went hand-in-hand with the events industry. I worked my way up, through sheer hard work and determination and became a Director at the age of 26.

After 11 years and following the birth of my second child, I decided to set up Kate Park Events Ltd. I am delighted with how the business has grown and now plan events across the UK and worldwide..”

Testimonials

Bespoke Luxury Events Planner - Delighted past clients

Our clients come to us as a result of recommendations and word of mouth – something that we’re very proud of.

Here’s what some of them had to say…

Kate and her team have managed two large themed corporate events for Arc Legal for 200 guests and both were a great success.

Kate is exceptionally organised, calm and patient, and brings fabulous ideas to the table and I cannot recommend Kate Park events enough.

We look forward to working with Kate and her team again in 2024!

Arc Legal

Kate Park Events work to such a high standard and managed to help make both our daughters weddings held just 4 months apart not only completely different events but equally spectacular. Everything from start to finish was flawless, Kate and Rachel saw and understood our vision from beginning to end making the experience exciting, enjoyable and magical. Two magnificent weddings thanks to their highly professional expertise.

Wow wow wow thank you Kate, Rachel and the team at Kate Park Events. We spent 12 months planning our daughter’s wedding which was two weeks ago at Grantley Hall and I cannot thank them enough. From securing some high profile bands to nailing the table linen nothing was too much. Everything was dealt with efficiently and seemlessly. The whole day was just perfect and stress free. I cannot thank them enough. This is the second wedding they have planned for us as they did our sons wedding 18 months ago I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Barbara Ainscough
Kate is absolutely amazing! My wedding was a month ago at Coworth Park and it turned out better than we could of ever imagined. Throughout the pandemic planning a wedding wasn’t the easiest, we had around 4 date changes but Kate made sure to take a lot of the pressure off by thinking ahead of everything and coming up with a plan b. No matter the time she would always respond to my emails or WhatsApps and we was very patient with me even when I had to take a few days off from thinking about the wedding with all the uncertainty. We honestly couldn’t of done it without, her every single detail was covered and the day ended up being an absolute dream!

I would give 5 stars to anyone that can put up with me when organising my sons barmitzvah. I literally drove Kate and Rachel mad for 18 months. In hindsight I really didn’t need too as they are experts in what they do. It isn’t just the organising of the event but it’s down to the class of product they use from the lighting to furniture to dance floor to staging (one of my main things I wanted was for them to make the room look MEGA) and they couldn’t of pulled it off any better, It was jaw dropping!

I would definitely use Kate Park events again if they had me back🙈

Thanks guys love vikki and Lee xxx

Kate, thank you so much for making our wedding day so incredibly special from start to finish..You were an absolute dream to work with in the build up to the wedding and were always available to help us with anything we needed. Your calmness, professionalism and amazing attention to detail made our day run so smoothly. Nothing was ever a problem and we could enjoy our wedding without any stresses! We will miss you and can’t wait to work with you again in the future.
We highly recommend Kate to anyone who is planning an event.

First of all, congratulations, you can stop searching now. Kate Park is exactly who you are looking for!

We had a bit of an unconventional wedding in which I, the Groom, planned everything and the bride knew nothing at all, except the date and that she would choose dresses for herself and her bridesmaids. I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted the wedding to look like and even more importantly, what it should feel like. It was a daunting task to try and find a wedding planner and a friend had previously used Kate for an event and said she was amazing. Kate and her team searched high and low for a venue and eventually found the perfect one. They made everything such a pleasant experience, including ensuring that our 150 guests managed to keep absolutely everything a secret from my lovely wife.

We reviewed about 35 music acts before selecting the handful or so who played at the wedding. Kate seem to enjoy the process as much as I did and wanted it to be perfect so it didn’t matter how many things we reviewed or how long it took, it needed to be right for us. Kate effortlessly accommodated my many random requests, including the day before the wedding for us to arrive at the venue by helicopter at exactly the right time to make a great impression.

One of my concerns was that I didn’t want it to feel like someone else’s wedding, but with Kate’s care and attention to detail, she created our perfect unique wedding, not the wedding that a general wedding planner wanted to create. When the event was happening, Kate and her team were always there.

We actually did the event over 2 days, as there were different groups or people from our lives who hadn’t met before, so we used the first day as a casual BBQ with excellent musical acts to break the ice, so that on the day, we were all just one big happy family. It worked perfectly and a few people said that it was the best 2 days of their lives, it certainly was for my wife and I. We just need to think of another event that Kate can organise for us!

Words cannot possibly describe how awesome our wedding was and it was because of Kate Park and her fabulous team of amazing ladies.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

MARK & KARLA

I’ve worked with Kate Park for a number of years now, from both sides of events; from being the venue, being proud to host her unique, first class events, to enlisting Kate Park Events to manage and deliver events for the hotels and for me personally. Together Kate & I put on a charity event to raise money for a cause close to my heart which was a huge success. She is calm, capable, honest, friendly and her events are always outstanding with the results you would like to achieve. Professional behind the scenes, during the events and afterwards. Her team reflect the ethos she instills and I’d trust any event- big or small – with Kate Park Events. Its a lovely experience to know and work with you all. You always have your clients best interests at the heart of everything you do.

We love working with Kate Park Events. Kate and the team always bring something extra special and super creative to the events we hold at The Lowry. They are so committed, reliable, professional and just an absolute pleasure to work with. I’d recommend to anyone!

GWEN OAKDEN, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT
AT THE LOWRY

Kate is not only amazing, she is a wonderful organiser, patient, knowledgeable and experienced, with a good sense of humour to boot. She did everything that I wanted, without exception, advising when I was dithering and on occasion seemed to know just what I wanted before I did! On the day she organised absolutely everything and everyone. I didn’t need to do a thing, just enjoy my day, which we did very much. All our guests have congratulated us on the smooth running of the event, from arrival through to the end of the evening. I couldn’t have done it without her. Well done, Kate. I’ll miss you!

DOROTHY DAINTON

Kate has worked with us for many years providing invaluable support for the planning, organisation and implementation of the company annual conference and Christmas party. Kate is always inspiring and provides an exceptional service whatever the occasion, managing all the details and ensuring the event goes smoothly. Kate is very committed to her clients and will go the extra mile to deliver our requirements. I would not hesitate to recommend Kate and look forward to working with her for many more years to come.

LVMH WATCH & JEWELLERY

Professional, personable, organised, creative, perfectionist, well-connected – just some of the words that spring to mind whilst working with Kate. I engaged Kate to organise a team-build event and murder mystery dinner for our senior management team. I don’t know how she did it but the companies and venues she sourced were spot on, the event ran so smoothly and Kate was also careful to make sure we came in within budget. The event received such amazing feedback that I went on to ask Kate to organise our Christmas party for 250 staff in Manchester. Again – her ideas were so original & creative; she sourced the perfect venue, ensured we had amazing high quality food and that all those small details were thought of and finalised. If you want to wow your guests and have the peace of mind to enjoy a hassle free event, I really can’t recommend Kate Park Events enough!
