whO WE ARE
I'm Emma, a natural born organiser, beach lover and coffee enthusiast.
​
My beginnings in the event world were humble - I started as a waitress while I gaining degrees in Business and Tourism. However an intrigue for the fast paced, always changing and customer focused industry quickly drew me in. And here I am almost 10 years later; after working my way up through the wedding and events industry, becoming an event creator and manager for world class venues and companies around the world and still loving what I do every day.
​
The thing I love the most about the Hawke's Bay wedding and events scene is that I am surrounded by people with the same passion, as myself for what they are doing in the industry. It's amazing to be able to collaborate with such innovative, creative minds; who are always striving to pull off the spectacular.
And so, it begins, combining almost 10 years of wedding and event planning and co-ordination experience 'For Keeps Events' is a one-stop shop for your perfect proposal, elopement or memorable event planning services.
I look forward to working with you,
