Really honest and helpful throughout the whole booking process. Nothing was to much trouble. I organised this with my best man who ended up booking a stag weekend in Nottingham doing go karting and paintballing. The price was fair but the VIP events area was brilliant. People paid for their own places and also could see the whole weekend plans. Would recommend and re book with them Thanks

My credit card company reclaimed my deposit as they completely misled me in order to secure the booking. I contacted them regarding a hen party dance class but on learning that I would have to pay a deposit before finding out the venue I said that I was not interested. The customer service rep then said that they would reserve 2 venues for me and if I wanted either all I had to do was pay the deposit within 24 hours and it would be secured. I did this but then when the venue showed as TBC on their website I contacted them and they eventually admitted that they had lied about reserving the venue and that it was not an option. Even though they admitted lying they were very blasé about it and assumed I would be happy to allow them to source another venue. They would not refund my deposit to my credit card without charging an admin fee!

What a super company! I must have spoke to loads of hen party companies but they were just full of young sales staff who knew nothing about the locations or activities. However Funktion Events from the moment they answered my call where super helpful. They suggested a city for us to visit due to it suiting our age group and also better value. The hotel was perfectly described and only a few minutes away from our life drawing and activity and also the Dreamboys show which we had booked later in the evening. They also work with all the major chained restaurants which made it very simple to choose the right venue to suit everyone, plus it shows they are respected in the industry if large companies use them. Overall a fabulous hen weekend organised by Funktion Events!

We all had a lovely time doing the perfume making and dreamboys show in Liverpool. The Dreamboys are funny if a little tacky but thats what the hen wanted. Our budget was quite limited, so we asked for a budget hotel in the city centre which was provided. We stayed at the Travelodge, not the best hotel but cheap as chips, so exactly what we wanted. The online events area made my life simple and hassle as I could invite people to the hen weekend and they just paid for themselves.

Organised a last minute stag do with Funktion in Nottingham for 18 guys. Did paintballing and quads at a site just out of the city centre. Our event manager offered help advice and also got the price down for me with her supervisor. The online system is perfect for groups wanting to book and pay individually online. Would look to use these guys again when arranging another event later in the year again. Cheers for looking after us and making an unforgettable stag weekend

Fantastic laugh with the lads on a stag do in Nottingham. Beer babes was worth the money, very sexy ladies!! They made it no hassle with their online payment portal which meant I didnt have to chase any of the lads for any money. They could all login and check the details of the weekend and confirm their attendance. No issues on the weekend or during the build up. The only issue I had was that I didnt know about an offer that could of meant the hen party could of got a free space. Will defo rebook with Funktion :)

Had a stag do in Liverpool arranged by Funktion Events. Our event manager was great and offered ideas that suited our group instead of just boring normal activities. On the stag weekend all the activities and hotels were as outlined with all running smoothly. I got an email prior to the event to see if I had any last minute questions which was a nice touch. Best thing for me was being able to use the online payment system, where I just invited my mates and they paid for themselves, made my like simple :).

As a group of hens we decided that for a change we would like to do 'life drawing' for an activity. We found Funktion Events and emailed them with our details. They got back to us immediately and extremely informative. We paid a deposit and the final payment 3 weeks prior to the event. The location of the event was literally an 8 minute walk from our hotel which was ideal. We could not fault the service provided by Funktion Events and would certainly use them in the future.

Found Funktion Events through an online search and I'm glad i did. They were easy to book through and very efficient. The activity itself was cocktail making and it was brilliant, everyone enjoyed it and i would definitely consider booking it again!!

Function events were a great company to go through. They were very helpful and very accommodating. They were able to please everyone by allowing some people to only have a 1 night stay and also 1 person wasn't doing the dancing so they worked out prices for this too. The hotel they booked us into was perfect. It was central and near the train station. It was perfect for the this type of weekend. It had everything we needed and was very clean and we'll equipped. The 80s dance class which we had booked was excellent. We had such a good laugh and it was good to dress up in with the theme. I really liked this company for the fact that everyone in the group could phone up and pat individually and i wasn't having to ask people for money. Overall a fantastic company and they have lots of destinations and activities to choose from and it's all well priced. I would definitely use funktion events company again.

I used Funktion Events to book a Glee themed dance class for my friend's hen party. Booking was easy through the website and it was good to be able to pay over the phone or online. The communication from the company was excellent - they always replied very quickly and kept me to up to date with the booking, as well as checking that we were ready and asking how it had gone after the event. On the day, the instructor leading the session was fantastic - she was very enthusiastic and made the session really fun. Everything went smoothly and it was a great way to kick off our hen weekend. Thanks!

We did the life drawing for my mother in law's 60th birthday. They came to our apartment in Manchester and were very professional. We were taught how to draw and had a good laugh whilst doing so. I would highly recommend it to anyone. It's for all ages. Everyone had such a great time.

I booked a cocktail making session and two course meal as one of the activities for my friend's hen do. The cocktail making was great fun, everyone got to have a go and the drinks just kept flowing! The meal was also great value for money. A great start to an evening out. Thank you!

Had a fantastic hen party package for a large group in Leeds. Funktion events were so helpful and made organising the night so simple all we had to do was turn up. We had a grease dance party which was great the lady who taught us all the moves was so lovely and thank you for the bottle of bubbly! Next was a meal at Zizzi's. Gorgeous food and lovely staff. Then we all went to tiger tiger with reserved booths and drinks partied there until the end if the night. Everyone that came had such a good night. It is so much better than just going to Leeds and going around bars. Highly recommend Funktion Events. Thanks for a great night x

There were 18 of us who attended the cocktail masterclass in Nottingham, which was just wonderful. Our ages ranged from 23 to 64 and it was enjoyed equally by all. We really put them to the test, as one was pregnant, some didn't like certain ingredients etc. but they were completel professional and accommodating. The drinks were beautiful, the food (of which there really was plenty) was equally delicious. The Jaegar train was one of the highlights, a real crescendo to the session, during which we were made to feel like real VIP's. Also, the correspondence leading into the day and afterwards has been fantastic. Highly recommended, worth every penny.

I hired the mobile cocktail making from Funktion for my friend's hen - I picked Funktion over other companies as the cocktail making had an additional competition element which made the service a little different. The bartender was incredible! He was really funny and got everyone in the party spirit. There were lots of drinks to sample and everyone really enjoyed making their own cocktail! The best bit was being split into teams to create a cocktail for the bride to be, everyone really got into it and of course it meant lots more taste testing! The whole service was brilliant and we didn't have to lift a finger to set up etc overall a brilliant event and would definitely use Funktion again in the future!

Booking with Funktion Events was so simple and took away the stress of having to organise an event for a group! Very helpful and pleasant staff and would definitely use them again for future events.

We had a fab afternoon on my daughters hen with the activities organised by Funktion events... Male still life drawing was fun and caused a lot of laughter.. Our Model was comfortable in his own skin and not a bit fazed by the laughing girls trying to draw him! Model and Instructor were very professional and everyone enjoyed the experience.. We then followed that with a burlesque dance class. Again our teacher was very professional and she made our lesson fun and we all learned a lot!! She supplied fans, feather boas, gloves etc.. The whole afternoon was well organised and run and everyone left in good spirits.. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting something a little different for their celebration.
