Another avenue of our Company is "Feed Me" the Bespoke Dining experience... this private dinner party was a birthday celebration at The Pito Pavillion at Little Easton Gardens for 12 guests.

The design brief was "Classical Elegance"

Rebecca & Jonathan - Hedingham Castle & Smeetham Hall Barn

My work with Rebecca & Jonathan started with the design for their Wedding Invitations in August 2008. The final design they chose was simple but effective.

Rebecca & Jonathan's Colour Scheme of Black, Silver and White looked striking within the timber surrounds of Smeetham Hall Barn.

We used Black Baroque Patterned Flock Silk Table Runners (which they fell in love with at another event I organised). Place Cards were tied to the Napkins with Silver Satin Ribbon.

The couple are teacher's which led them to name their tables after schools that they have worked in.

We incorporated a poster image of Hedingham Castle within the Table Plan to maintain some continuity from the Ceremony Venue to Smeetham Hall. Rebecca & Jonathan now have it hanging on their wall as a reminder of their special day and the guests that celebrated with them.

Katy & Seb - Audley End House

A Traditional Wedding (English Rose & Scottish Thistle).

We first met with Katy in 2007 to discuss her ideas for her wedding. The Mackenzie Tartan (of her future husband's family) was to play a big part in the colour scheme and decor of the day togther with the incorporation of the English Rose.

Katy loved some fabric hearts that I had designed as Favours (orginally for an Valentines event at a restaurant), we adapted the design, incorpated some detail about the couple and filled the hearts with Lavender.

Each place setting included a Thistle with the Mackenzie Tartan tied in a bow around the Napkin.

The tables were named after different types of thistle and even incorporated an image for final detail.

The Table Plan included an A-Z guest list to enable the 160+ guests to find their table easily.

Alternating the Silver Candelabra and Silver Platters on the tables worked fabulously and led the eye to varying heights as you entered the Marquee.

Stace Summer Ball - Stansted Manor Hotel

This corporate event was Stace LLP's presentation evening, and therefore the theme of "Awards" was incorporated. The Table Plan was displayed within a Box Frame which we designed to look like a stage (including the use of lighting and stage curtains).
