Ama had spent nine years running events for a hotel group in Accra when she went to a family wedding in Aburi and watched the bride's mother spend the reception moving furniture. Everything had been booked. Nothing had been organised. There is an enormous difference, and almost nobody sells the second thing.
So Union plans rather than books. We hold the budget, read the contracts, draw the room, brief the suppliers and stand at the door on the day. We take about thirty weddings a year, which is roughly half what we are asked for, because the number is what keeps the promise honest.
Most of our couples are planning two ceremonies in one weekend and two families with different expectations of both. That is the job we are actually good at, and it is the reason we exist in Accra rather than anywhere else.
