Events by May was started by Rianie May after she planned her own wedding in 2020. She offers full wedding and event planning, on-the-day coordination and décor and floral design, and describes her approach as practical and organised, keeping the budget and the overall design in view at the same time.
Many of her clients live outside the Cape and plan remotely, with Rianie as their on-the-ground contact; testimonials come from couples in Dubai and Germany. Venues she has worked at include Diamant, Olijvenkraal, Webersburg, Nooitgedacht and Rhebokskloof. Packages are listed on her site without prices.
