Hiring high tea accessories & other items for party hire
We held a High Tea for residents to celebrate Mothers' Day. We had used All Occasions Party Hire for a previous function and once again they excelled themselves. Beverly arrived early and helped set up the tables supplying the beautiful china and even floral decorations for the tables. I cannot recommend Beverly's company highly enough. Many thanks for all your help - you went above and beyond - Frances Beattie, Tasman Village, Morrinsville
