Tracy Lavin Events

Tracy Lavin Events designs and plans luxury weddings and parties in the UK and for destination celebrations abroad, and has won several industry awards for the work. Tracy Lavin grew up in Ireland and trained at a leading Irish hospitality and catering college before working in hotels there.

She then moved to the UK and progressed through four and five-star hotels in London and the north of England, reaching general management. Wanting to work more closely with individual clients, she set up her own company for high-end weddings and events, based near Manchester Airport.

The company takes a single wedding per day or weekend, with a maximum of 12 weddings a year, because many of them run over two or three days. It can arrange everything from the first brief, drawing on a network of suppliers around the world, or join the project once a venue has been chosen.

Weddings have taken place at Kensington Palace, stately homes, luxury villas, five-star hotels, country estates and the Soho Collection. Overseas, locations have included Cannes, Monaco, Lake Garda, Lake Como, Florence, Mallorca, Scotland, Ireland and Mauritius.

Couples are not required to use the company's own suppliers. Guest lists range from around 80 to 500, and the company has worked with many nationalities in the UK and abroad.

Best wedding ever

Nearly a week has passed and it has taken me some time to adjust from what was possibly two of the most memorable days of my life. They were some of the best days our friends have had too and without exception, everyone keeps saying, “best wedding ever”. Thank you’s will never convey how grateful I am to you, in fact we want you to arrange all our future events

A fairy-tale come true

Thank you for the most amazing wedding and garden party the next day- you took care of everything so well, the designs were more than we ever dreamed of, it was a fairy-tale come true. We have had so many complements that my friends all want to use you now for their weddings.

Far more amazing than imagined

Thank you so much for everything I was utterly blown away when I first saw the marquee. Our guests said how incredible and gorgeous it was. The organisation and staff were incredible and we loved every moment. It was far more amazing than anything I could have imagined.
