An Unforgettable Evening at Heckfield Place ⠀⠀

An Unforgettable Evening at Heckfield Place
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A night filled with love, legacy, and pure celebration. For the Caudwells’ 40th wedding anniversary, we designed an intimate yet opulent gala dinner that captured four decades of memories in spectacular style.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Inspired by the elegance of a Parisian jazz club, the setting was rich with deep ruby hues, layers of velvet textures, and cascading florals, all aglow in soft candlelight. Every detail was thoughtfully designed to feel indulgent yet effortlessly inviting.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But the magic didn’t stop at the aesthetics—the energy of the night was unmatched. With a non-stop musical journey, guests dined to the sounds of world-class performers before the celebration carried through to a late-night dance floor like no other.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A truly immersive experience, where every element came together to honor a love story that has spanned four incredible decades.

Did somebody say Valentines? I have to say I’ve never been one for all the fuss. Maybe I’m not such an old romantic after all.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But family celebrations, marking and celebrating life’s key milestones - well I’m 100% here for those.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Like this 40th wedding anniversary-the third famous gathering we’ve been entrusted with by the Thomas family. From 60th birthdays, to their son’s wedding and now their own wedding anniversary. It was an evening filled with love, laughter, and the effortless elegance that defines our signature style.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Heckfield Place provided the perfect setting, where nature, heritage, and heartfelt hospitality came together in seamless harmony. We infused the space with ruby-hued accents, organic textures, and lush florals, a reflection of four decades of love.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Guests dined in the warm embrace of the Hearth restaurant, indulging in a fire-cooked feast curated by @skyegyngell, while the atmosphere was made even more magical by hand-drawn illustrations from @jessrosebird—a keepsake of a night to remember. And, of course, no celebration would be complete without an unforgettable dance floor moment, soundtracked by @djcharlesmusic.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To be entrusted with life’s most treasured milestones time and again is the greatest honour. Here’s to a love story that continues to unfold and to many more years of joy-filled celebrations.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Nestled within the breathtaking grounds of Euridge

Nestled within the breathtaking grounds of Euridge Manor, this wedding ceremony was a vision of pure romance and elegance. From the moment guests arrived, every detail was designed to heighten the senses and immerse them in an unforgettable experience.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Before taking their seats, guests were invited to visit the interactive Petal Bar, where they hand-filled monogrammed sachets with fragrant rosebuds, lavender, and delicate petals—creating a beautifully scented moment for the grand toss.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then came the music. The ALR orchestra delivered a breathtaking performance, each note weaving seamlessly into the emotion of the day. And when they played All I Ask of You from Phantom of the Opera, there was not a dry eye in sight—a moment so spine-tingling, it still lingers in our memory.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A setting that felt straight out of a romantic dream, with layers of floral beauty and heartfelt music.

From start to finish, every detail of the Caudwell

From start to finish, every detail of the Caudwells’ anniversary was designed to feel uniquely theirs, with custom branding designed by our in-house team, that carried through each moment of the event.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We brought their story to life with personalised touches that added layers of meaning and style to the celebration.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Guests were welcomed with thoughtfully curated gifts placed in each hotel bedroom—a collection of locally sourced snacks and treats, each wrapped in custom packaging that featured playful nods to the couple’s story. These welcome gifts were designed to make guests feel at home from the very start, while adding a delicious taste of the celebration to come.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The branding continued throughout the weekend: At Club 84, a nostalgic pop-up bar honouring the year they married, custom coasters, neon signage, and cocktail menu booklets immersed guests in the fun and glamour of the 80s.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Caudwell Times, a custom newsprint capturing highlights and memories, offered everyone a keepsake to take home.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We even created a bespoke C&B monogram, symbolising their enduring partnership, which adorned everything from stationery to the band’s drumhead—a striking reminder that this was a one-of-a-kind celebration crafted just for them.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was these personalised touches that made each moment unforgettable, creating an experience filled with style, joy, and a true sense of legacy.
