Red had the pleasure of delivering a “Summer Garden Ball” to 200 accountants last week in the West Sussex countryside near Horsham… The day was truly wonderful… Not only was the weather fantastic but the Food, Service and Drink werent bad either

Red looked after the whole event form intiial tendering to delivering on the day, Our friensdly and experienced team organksied all the entertainemnt that included the very good local bad JAG and Magician “Dean Nichols” who was awesome and liked by all! We also were give the task of organising transport for the 200 guests, picking up form 5 different points across Sussex!

Anyway it all went off with no issues and the accountants were having great fun…. even our accountant Jo who was seen dancing the night away!

They say pictures speak a thousand words…. well here go!

…. Not just the Food!!

Last weekend Red catered for a private client at their beautiful home on the Kingston Gorse private estate in West Sussex. The event was to celebrate a birthday and what a celebration it was….Fine Food, Great Wine, Summer Cocktails, Opera Singing and a band to rock the night away alfresco by the pool…. Red’s usual standard!!

The evening kicked off with Bellini’s, Champagne and some sublime Canapes served by the wonderful team at Red… Then we were entertained by a young male opera singer (sorry did not get his name) but he was not Italian… but sang in Italian, very well!

A day in the life of a trainee event co-ordinator…

9 am – I drive into the car park, I’m on time (it’s a miracle) ditch the car in a vacant space and bound into the office. Take off my coat and turn on the computer, and then undertake the most important job of the day – putting the kettle on! No doubt when Dan comes in he will demand a cup of tea, mind you it’s usually coffee he asks for when I’m making it (he thinks I can’t make tea!) I head back towards my computer as Laura Walks through the door, big smile and hugs as we discuss what we did over the weekend. The office begins to fill; once all the team are in we get to work. In the main office all you can hear is the taping of keys on the keyboards as each member of staff is going about their work. Laura replying to enquiries built up over the weekend, Andy organising staff for the upcoming event, and me replying to the brides who have booked Eastlands Estate as their wedding venue.
