English Summer

Garden Party

A beautiful and exquisite summer luncheon in the grounds of our client’s West Sussex home.

Landmark 50th birthday celebration

Mirage Expertise at this event

We were delighted to plan and produce this party, having recently delivered an extravagant festival themed party (one of our all time favourite parties) for the husband’s 50th birthday a few years previously. For the wife’s landmark birthday celebration we were asked to plan a party with a distinctly different ambience.
A quintessentially English summer flower garden party made this celebration very special and truly memorable.

As guests arrived an immensely talented string quartet performed classic and contemporary ensembles to welcome guests to this beautiful and exquisite summer luncheon. A table plan with a difference, in which guests swapped their seat allocation with a Polaroid photo of themselves, provided the host with a fun reminder of the day. A delicious 4 course banquette lunch was enjoyed by everyone, followed by an afternoon of swing with spontaneous dancing to an exceptional jazz band with stunning lead vocal performance.

The glorious grounds of our clients home near Brighton provided the inspiration to create a formal, but not stuffy, party atmosphere. We styled a traditional, open canvas marquee with beautiful table dressings, an abundance of floral decorations, quality furniture and fabulous draping. Top professional entertainment set the scene and stage, sound and lighting were of the highest quality.

Great care, attention to detail and meticulous planning went into making this landmark celebration a success for the party guests and hosts. We very much enjoy working with these lovely clients.

“First of all, I want to thank you and the rest of the team for organising my 50th Garden Party. I was a bit reluctant to have a party at all but I had the best day ever. Really enjoyed every minute of it. The table setting was exquisite. I always worry about the music as there are quite a few musicians in the family but it couldn’t have been more perfect. The string quartet set the scene beautifully at the beginning and the DJ was spot on with her choice of music throughout – loved her! The Swing Band were just brilliant (great turban as a well as a stunning voice). Delicious food and another stunning cake from Daisy and of course you and your staff absolutely wonderfully attentive. Thank you for making my birthday very special.”
