Our story

About

Married for 15 years, Ray and Fi met while marketing a Whoopee Cushion and have never looked back!

They eat, sleep and drink the Costume and Party Industry and with a combined 70 years’ experience in the trade, it flows through their veins! Renowned for a warmth with their customers, Ray and Fi could see a vacuum emerging and rather than allow the industry to get swallowed up by the Corporates and Chinese Direct Shipping, they created the Kiss Me brand to put their Trade Customers at the heart of everything they do! …SIMPLE!

Fi’s son, Bertie, who grew up eating, sleeping and drinking the industry too, has also joined the KISS ME team, bringing with him his youthful vigour and University Business Management Degree.
