About
Privately owned by Sally and James, Heathy Lea offers a personal wedding experience. Before taking over Heathy Lea, Sally gained experience as a self-employed freelancer in the events industry for 5 years, following a 9-year tenure at Live Nation Entertainment UK. James, on the other hand, had a successful career in the property industry but decided to pursue a new passion alongside Sally, leading them to Heathy Lea.
Sally's involvement in some of the UK's biggest music festivals and events, such as Download, Creamfields, V Festival, Radio 1's Big Weekend, Wireless, and various one-off shows, was recognized by Live Nation. Despite this, Sally's heart yearned to return to Derbyshire. It was at Heathy Lea that Sally and James combined their skills and pursued their true passion for hosting spectacular weddings.
