About AB Events
– By Agie May
Where small, thoughtful moments grew into a space for connection, creativity and community.
-by Agie May
AB Events or ‘Agie Beauty Events’ as it was originally known, actually started because of my nail clients!
Through my work as a nail tech, I was constantly having conversations with clients about how hard it can be to make friends, getting yourself out of the house or trying something for you! I’d find myself thinking all the time “they would get on with my other client” or “they’d be such good friends with…” and it made me realise how many connections could happen if people were just in the right space together. So I thought, why not create that space?
So many of us want to do more, meet people and experience life, but there isn’t always the space or environment to do that! Growing up in Kettering, I’ve always felt like there wasn’t loads of things to do or places to go, and sometimes you just want that sense of belonging. So naturally AB Events grew…
Hosting has always been a part of me. From selling cakes to my teachers at school to raise money for charity, to hosting events at home, to doing dinners for family and friends, I’ve always loved bringing people together. It’s something that’s always felt really natural to me.
The first event was just for nail clients, family and friends… tote bag painting workshop, and that was it. Straight away, I could see the demand was there. People came, they connected, they enjoyed themselves, and it just felt right.
That’s when I realised this is what people are looking for. We want connection. We want to feel human. We want to do things that bring us together in a way that feels easy and genuine.
That’s what AB Events is built on. And honestly, as long as people need connection, creativity and kind spaces like this, I’ll keep creating them!
"I believe in people, connection, and meaningful moments"
"AB Events is truly special, centred on bringing people together through creative, meaningful activities while supporting other small businesses. Agie’s the real USP, an absolute ray of sunshine, so kind, welcoming, and uplifting. I’d definitely recommend her lovely events to anyone looking for something fun, inspiring, and full of positive energy! - Coleen "
Moments we’ve created
Who It’s For
AB Events is for anyone who wants to try something new, meet new people, or step into a space that feels welcoming and relaxed! Or create your own with a private event.
Whether you come alone or with friends, it’s about connection, creativity and enjoying a moment outside of everyday life. You don’t need to be creative, outgoing, or have anything planned… just come as you are.
What we've Hosted
Events include creative workshops such as paint and sip, jewellery/phone charm making and tote bag painting, floral workshops, cake decorating, plant pot painting, mirror painting, tote bag painting and seasonal themed experiences.
I also host private celebrations and tailored group events designed completely around the occasion.
Why AB Events
AB Events is built around more than just hosting events. Every experience is designed to feel personal, welcoming and thoughtfully created around the people in the room.
It’s not about ticking boxes or following a set format, it’s about creating moments that feel real, relaxed and memorable. From small creative workshops to larger private events, everything is shaped to bring people together in a genuine way

We’ve also started hosting events in Leicestershire as we continue to grow. Expanding into new areas allows us to reach more people and create even more opportunities for connection and creativity.
Supporting Local Spaces
