Last Thursday, we held our first event for February for our members at the gorgeous Jumeriah Carlton Hotel. Nestled in the heart of Knightsbridge, this iconic hotel seamlessly blends luxury, versatility, and a prime location, making it a top contender for any event planner seeking the perfect venue. Hosted by Phillipe Aeberhard (Director of Sales), we had a wonderful evening, starting with champagne and canapes in the bar whilst we caught up with each other. January 2025 has been a busy one for our members, and we love sharing experiences and suppliers with each other whenever we catch up.
We loved that the canapes and champagne offered were well-balanced for those who weren’t drinking and were still on that health kick. The most perfect vegetarian canape (see the picture below) and non-alcoholic drinks made everyone feel catered for and included.
After catching up, we visited the property in full (details of spaces below) before settling down to dinner in our very own private dining room. The food was gorgeous (sea bass), and the dessert was even better. Paired with the most perfect wine selection, we had a lovely dinner.
