Our Team

We are a close-knit team, working on a select number of events each year to ensure every project receives the attention it deserves. Each event is led by a dedicated Guest Liaison Manager, working closely alongside Sophie to deliver a seamless and considered guest experience from start to finish.

Recognising that every event is unique, Sophie carefully builds each guest liaison team to suit the occasion. She draws from a handpicked network of exceptional freelancers, people she trusts implicitly to represent the planner’s vision and go above and beyond for every guest.

Our approach is calm, collaborative and highly personal. We work as an extension of the planner’s team, managing every guest interaction with care, clarity and discretion, so that every detail feels effortless.

Sophie Marriott
Founder & Director

With natural warmth and an instinct for people, she has built a business focused on creating thoughtful, seamless guest experiences. At the heart of her work is the understanding that successful guest liaison is about more than logistics; it’s about having the right people in the right place at the right time.

Sophie is a people person through and through – skilled at reading the room, solving problems quietly and efficiently, and making guests feel genuinely supported. She leads with kindness, calm, and clarity, stepping into each event as a trusted, guest-facing presence.
