Emma – General Manager

Emma has spent 20 years working in the events industry, and her passion for weddings has grown from this extensive background. Apart from supporting all our amazing Event Managers, Emma is also our private viewings super star, as her excitement on meeting new couples makes her an expert at it.

She has a loving family, including her husband, two children, and two cats. Although born in Dublin, Emma has spent more time in the UK than in her birthplace. Emma is also an avid runner, who makes sure to go for a run every week, having even completed the London Marathon twice. Apart from running, Emma enjoys cooking, which is among her favourite pastimes. With all her interests and experiences, Emma seems to have a very active and fulfilling life.

Tracey – Event Support Manager

With 35 years of experience working in hospitality, Tracey has perfected the art of designing incredible guest experiences. For Tracey, food plays a huge part in every event whether it is canapés and champagne in the gardens or a six course feast in the Dining Room.

Lucy – Senior Event Manager

Lucy heads up our events team and steers a calm and steady ship, no matter the size of the event. Building a great rapport with couples is her key to hosting the perfect event.

Lucy is a country girl at heart, she loves being out in the fresh air – whether she is riding her horses or walking her terrier, Jasper, who was born and bred at Prestwold.

Aimee – Senior Event Manager

Aimee loves every aspect of a wedding day, but her favourite part is walking into The Dining Room and seeing our couples vision come to life. She’s got an exceptional attention to detail and will always strive to ensure that our couples enjoy every aspect of their day to the fullest.

Hollie – Event Manager

There isn’t much Hollie doesn’t know about mixing the perfect tipple. Hollie is in her element behind the Prestwold bar, whether it’s designing our cocktail menu or learning the history of spirits.
