“A good event management company has interesting, novel and high-quality vendors, venues and ideas to recommend, but, if a client has specific ideas about what they want, will also be able to embrace the client’s vision and bring it to life. A truly excellent event planner is able to think ahead and anticipate a client’s needs, and have a solution in mind even before the issue is raised.

 

The Inside Access embodies all these qualities – they have good relationships with excellent vendors, as a result of which their vendors provide more attentive and accommodating service than if one had gone to the same vendors directly, and best of all, TIA anticipates needs, thinks three steps ahead and has a workaround to most logistical issues even before you raise the question. Arron and his team bring a very high level of intuitive service – the staff are unobtrusive and add to, rather than detract from, a social occasion – but at the same time, are instantly there at a guest’s elbow with coffee sweetener for those who don’t take sugar, caramel popcorn and sparkling Ribena for little ones, napkins to wipe up spills, etc. even as the guest looked up to make the request.

​

What I liked best about the varied events TIA has planned for me, from a half-day yacht charter for 50 business contacts, to an formal office lunch, to a family day event with lots of children – everyone had a wonderful time and remarked on the special little touches that stood out in their minds, each event went better than I could have imagined, and issues that were beyond the control of TIA were swiftly and calmly handled such that guests never even realized there was a problem.”
