Our Values

Updated December 2023*

Customer Satisfaction

We are constantly auditing and updating our processes for risk mitigation. Through feedback from customers, internal team members, external auditing consultants and third-party vendors, we take a holistic approach to improving products and services.

Team Satisfaction: Work/Life Balance, Creative inspiration

A happy and healthy team means we will be able to give it our best shot at every wedding. We apply the Japanese concepts of “Kaizen” and “Ikigai” into our quarterly individual Personal Development Planning, to identify win-win solutions.

Long Term Sustainability

For better or for worse, and in sickness and in health – like marriage, we are in it for the long run. Slow and steady wins the race – after the rapid growth period we experienced during COVID-19 and the Post-COVID Boom, our priority is set on sustainable continuation of Customer Satisfaction & Team Satisfaction, rather than short term gains.
