About New Forest Events

Apparently, we’re the best at everything now. Who knew?

We’re going to need a bigger shelf. Picking up two major awards in one season might seem like we're showing off, but when you’re this dedicated to the perfect pour and the ultimate party, people tend to notice.

It’s official: we have been named the ‘Best Bespoke Mobile Bar & Event Catering Company’ in Hampshire by SME News, and the ‘New Event Management Company of the Year’ for 2026 We handle all the details, work with brilliant local partners, and turn the best of the season into food and drinks your guests will talk about long after the last glass is collected.

We do more than just turn up with a bottle opener and hope for the best. If your idea of "hosting" usually involves you sweating over a grill while everyone else actually has a conversation, we need to talk.

We handle the entire production so you can actually attend your own event. From smoky BBQs and massive buffets to those grazing stations that look like art (but taste better), we’ve got the food covered. But we don’t stop at the menu. We supply the professional staff, the custom bar, the live entertainment booking, and even the plates. Yes, the actual plates: because you have better things to do than the washing up.

Whether it’s a grand Hampshire wedding or an intimate New Forest get-together, we scale everything to fit your budget and your group size. No corporate fluff, no stress, just a seamless day where the only thing you have to worry about is which drink to have next.

Our Story

I do what I do because I genuinely love transforming a vision—your vision—into a seamless, memorable reality. And I love a chllenge My journey began with a natural knack for organization and an appreciation for quality. Over 20 years ago, I began orchestrating everything from large-scale festivals in the forest to intimate private parties and wellness retreats. Managing these diverse events taught me resilience, the art of the perfect plan, and the critical importance of a personal touch. This hands-on experience led me to refine my skills formally at the prestigious Leiths School of Food and Wine. There, I didn't just learn to cook; I mastered the logistics of exceptional hospitality and bespoke catering. Before fully dedicating myself to events, I cut my teeth in the high-stakes world of live media at CNN International. In that high-pressure environment, precision is everything. I was responsible for the flawless execution of broadcasts and complex logistical operations under intense deadlines. This background instilled in me the discipline and calm needed to handle any unexpected challenge an event might throw my way. Each project is unique, and that variety fuels my passion. Ultimately, I do this to take the stress off your shoulders and use my diverse skill set—from culinary expertise to high-stakes logistical management—to ensure your event is a bespoke, breathtaking success.

I'm fortunate to have cultivated a fantastic network of professional contacts across the entire events supply chain—from high-energy bands to gourmet breakfast caterers. This ensures I can reliably source the right elements for your event, precisely when needed, and most importantly, at the right price point.

I have no hesitation in recommending Nova .

Nova provided an excellent service in catering for my husband’s 99th Birthday Celebrations. The food was excellent including catering for several different dietary requirements. Nova kept in touch every step of the way from our first meeting up to and after the event. The overall price was very reasonable .
