When Chris & Clare Wall established Empire Events in 2012 they had a clear goal in mind: provide quality aesthetics for sophisticated events. Having worked as a high-end hotel manager, Clare wanted to create event spaces for clients with the sophistication of the hotel venues she’d managed. She identified a clear need for quality pieces for a discerning market. Being a carpenter by trade Chris valued well-crafted, quality furniture and could create unique installations for event spaces. Together they merged their professional insights and skills to help corporates, as well as individuals, enjoy sophisticated spaces for incredible events. Here we share some of their recent works.
Classic, understated elegance was the brief for Andrew and Tilopa’s wedding. The beautiful vineyard setting was complimented with styling of whites, natural timber and soft pastels. What made the day extra special to the couple was all the help of friends and family in so many ways. Under the shade of a large tree, dressed with flowers and draped with pink hued fabric, Andrew and Tilopa said their vows with close friends and family looking on. For the reception, a clear marquee was set up nestled against the Larry Cherubino Cellar Door. Guests enjoyed pre-dinner roaming canapes & drinks as the sun set, before moving into the marquee for mains & speeches.
