Kia ora whānau! 💫

I’m so excited to finally introduce myself properly and share a little about the heart behind my business!

My name is Razia, I’m 27 years old and I’m a proud Samoan, Fijian, & Indian mum of three young boys and I absolutely love creating moments that become long lasting memories by creating awesome setups that make celebrations feel extra special & memorable ✨ I am currently operating this small business from my home while raising my boys 🫶🏽 Being a mum is my biggest motivation, and it’s what pushed me to start building something of my own while creating a better future for my babies 💙

I am a registered NZ business, and I offer custom backdrop & balloon installations, backdrop and prop/decor hire, and personalised milestone posters & party favours for birthdays, baby showers, and special events 🥳 Each booking is designed to suit your vision and theme with my eye for detail. The backdrops I use are built by local small business owners here in the hutt valley!

I’m based in the Hutt valley and service to the Wellington region. Feel free to check out what I’ve done so far! I’ve attached some photos of my work ☺️✨

Get in touch today to start designing your next install, get a quote, book a service or general enquiries 💌 via Facebook Messenger, Instagram : or email : [email protected]

Payments are made safely by bank transfer or through Hnry, a secure online financial portal ✅ Payment plans are available with minimum 1month notice before your event date!

Thank you so much for supporting my journey as a small local business owner. Every booking, share, comment, and recommendation means the world to me and my little family. I can’t wait to create something beautiful for your next celebration 💛

The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail from these guys are incredible, and I couldn’t be happier with how mine turned out ☺️It’s such a beautiful addition to my collection!

If you’re in the event industry and looking to expand your hire inventory, or you’re after long lasting custom marquee pieces for your business, I highly recommend getting in touch with Trish at GlowForge! She’s super friendly and easy to work with. Supporting small businesses that pour so much passion into their work is something I’ll always be about 🫶

I cant wait to feature mine in my upcoming events 🙌🏽

We've just finished another custom number, ready for a special first birthday celebration. If you're in the Wellington region and would like to hire this number for your little one's big day, get in touch with Razia at Essence of Raz, who will be happy to help.
