ETC Events

 

ETC Events was started in 2007 by Debbie Montague who has been involved in Wedding and Event Planning for 20 years in and around the country. She is passionate about Weddings and says, “There is nothing as beautiful as a stress-free, glowing bride on her wedding day”.

As different as each bride is, so every wedding is unique, but all deserve the same professional and dedicated co-ordination and planning leading up to and during the wedding day which ETC Events provides.

ETC Events provides a cost-effective service to brides that not only eases the stress of planning a wedding but also offers a wealth of experience, saves you money and still involves the bride in every aspect of the planning process.

Our standard wedding planning fee (excluding hard costs) is R20 000 for weddings under 200 and R25 000 for weddings over 200 people. We do offer customised packages to our brides depending on their requirements and this is why we offer a ‘no strings attached’ meeting/skype or phone call to discuss your wedding. We will then provide you with a fully inclusive costing before you confirm our involvement in your wedding.

 

We also offer an in-house stationery service which includes invitations, menus, place cards, table seating, programs, favours etc… to suit your theme and décor.

As well as all this Debbie is an experienced floral artist and also does décor and flowers for our brides, thereby giving a huge cost saving and peace of mind that ETC Events will be handling all aspects of the wedding, ensuring everything reflects your vision.

Our wedding would not have been the amazing day it was without you! The flowers were bright and happy and gorgeous and the decor was spot on. We loved that you totally got our concept of a long lazy lunch and what we wanted for the whole look and feel of the day and just made it happen – and with fantastic attention to detail. We are also so thankful that you organised and coordinated the setup and made sure everything was perfect on the day without us having to worry about a thing! It was a wonderful feeling walking into the reception venue after the ceremony and just being able to relax and enjoy ourselves. The other thing that made a massive difference to me was how great you are at communicating – both well in advance of the event when I was still looking for someone to help with the decor and in the run-up to the wedding when the little details became really important. It was amazing that I could message at any time with a question or request and nothing was ever an issue. My mom was so impressed at how calm you always were and how you just took everything in your stride – requests for fancy folded serviettes and all! Thanks again for everything. It was an absolute pleasure working with you – our wedding wouldn’t have been the wonderful, stress-free experience it was without you! – Kate & Gavin Levinstein
