About us

Oakwood Events Uganda is captained by Stella and Charlotte, a duo of experienced Event Planning and Management Specialists. It has been growing and creating magic since July 2017. This magic is created and curated by our in-house administrative & technical team, which is supported by a wide range of industry experts and vendors.

We are very deliberate about working with vendors who not only have a strong work ethic, but also take great pride in their work. It’s important to us to work with professionals that find joy and fulfilment in their work, so that this positive energy filters through our work process up to the client.

Now that we have you here, we’d love to take this chance to share the meaning behind our unique company name.

I’m sure you’ve wondered why we are named after a premium hardwood produced by the Oak tree. The name was proposed by Stella (our in-house bookworm & eternal optimist), and this is why we agreed with her.

While ‘Oakwood’ is a very heavy and durable wood, it’s also one of the most malleable hard woods there is. This means it can easily be crafted into beautiful pieces of furniture that can last for decades.

These qualities of the ‘Oakwood’ spoke strongly to the core values that we wanted the Oakwood Events Uganda brand to represent – i.e. resilience, flexibility, longevity and premium value service.

Indeed these same values continue to guide who we are and how we work.
