BEFORE WE TALK

A few
good questions.

Can you prepare a surprise?

Yes. We agree who needs to know, the invitation arrangements and the moment the surprise is revealed.

Will the format suit guests of different ages?

We select the programme and venue for your particular group. We discuss the needs of children, older guests and anyone requiring additional access arrangements.

Do we need a host?

Not always. Good music, careful timing and a coordinator behind the scenes may be all you need.

Before we plan the details

Useful questions about the scope, preparation and provider terms.

Who this format suits

For families, friends and birthday hosts who want a celebration that feels personal. Choose a quiet dinner, a gathering across generations or a party with entertainment.

How planning works

We discuss the person’s interests and your guests before suggesting a format. Venue, dining and personal surprises are agreed together. On the day, we coordinate the team and the programme.

How the budget is calculated

Guest numbers, destination, duration, menu, styling and performances shape the estimate. Photography, travel, surprises and venue overtime are listed when included in the agreed scope.

What to include in your enquiry

  • Date, city and approximate guest numbers.
  • The person’s interests and preferred atmosphere.
  • Children, accessibility and dietary requirements.
  • Any surprise plans and who is helping organise them.
