Booked for Corporate Function

We hired the Ice cream truck for our company event and couldn’t be happier with the service. The communication with Giuseppe leading up to the day was excellent—clear, friendly, and professional. We were able to provide our own branded wafers, which the team incorporated beautifully. It added such a special touch, and they handled it effortlessly. On the day itself, service was smooth, welcoming, and incredibly efficient. Everyone absolutely loved it—there were smiles all around! Highly recommended. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Lovetagevents is run by a lovely couple. They are very accommodating to any requests on what drinks you would like serving and can make your favourite cocktails up. The ice-cream cart is absolutely a lovely idea. The cart first was used as a welcome drinks bar for quest’s, then they can turn it into the ice-cream cart. You have a lovely choice of 5 delicious flavours to choose from. They also, which is so lovely, decorate the bar and ice-cream cart to match in with colours/theme of your event. Definitely recommend them and will use them again.
