I wanted to say a massive thank you for everything that you organised and did for our wedding out at the boneline winery on 11th february. It was the most magical day and the set up was beyond anything that We had imagined.
The Tipis fitted right in amongst the dry brown grass of the environment and once that sun went down it was a fun filled evening with the lights.
Everything was just amazing and we wanted to say thank you!
You have an amazing set up and all your team were super helpful and friendly.

Rod, Louise, Helena and all the Element team were not only helpful, informative, and amazing to work with.. they were fun, open to ideas and super quick in comms and plans! The tipi as our wedding shelter was so unique and special, our guests haven't stopped commenting on it. If you are wanting a point of difference from a marquee wedding, they are incredible. We can't thank them enough for their support in the lead up and clean up of our special day.

“Rod from who was in charge of our food, bar and the tipis also went all out for our day. Everyone loved the food, the bartenders were such a good time and there were no issues with the tipis even with the strong wind we had on the day!”
