Magpie is owned, run and loved by me, Lauren, wife to Tom and mummy to little Hugo.

I’m absolutely in love with vintage crockery, rustic accessories and a yummy afternoon tea! 15 years ago, when we got married, I found it so hard to find vintage crockery to hire. I often thought it would be a great idea to run a business offering this service but the time was never right. After 21 years in the NHS I’ve recently been made redundant and thought – if this isn’t the right time, when will be? So here I am, very excited to get started!

I offer enthusiasm and efficiency by the bucket load and am passionate about attention to detail. Whatever the occasion, I can help you create the day you really want, so you’re able to relax and enjoy yourself.

Whether you’re looking for a smaller, more intimate celebration or a bigger event, Magpie will ensure your day is original, beautiful and packed with personality.
