RED HERRING EVENTS Whether you’re a bride or groom, the father-of-the-bride, the best man or the matron-of-honour – there’s so much to think about when it comes to a wedding. The biggest problem is often the seating plan, who gets on with who and those who don’t know anyone else. On top of this, it can be difficult to decide what to do the night before weddings with family or finiding fun alternatives to giving a speech. Fortunately, that’s where Red Herring Events comes in! The team will create an exceptional event and are there to handle all murder mystery needs. Let them take the stress out of event planning and trust the party to the professionals.Director of events Joseph Parfrement Parkes says, “We’ve worked with a variety of wedding parties over the years, providing murderously great entertainment that fits around your plans. While we usually suggest it’s not a good idea to murder the mother-in-law, we’re here to help.” Here are some ideas the company has done in the past… •A themed murder mystery evening the night before so all the relatives on both sides of the family get to know each other without struggling with small talk. •DIY or fully event-managed murder mystery evenings for the hen and stag parties. •Custom-written mini-murder mystery involving the bridal party as suspects to lighten up the wedding reception instead of the speeches. •A small mystery to keep the kids entertained during the meal. •A custom-written murder mystery to break the ice as everyone arrives at the wedding venue.
