The Global Gift Gala
corinthia hotel, london
We were honoured to be asked to be involved in the seventh Global Gift Gala in London. Working with the amazing Hannah Routledge from the beautiful Corinthia Hotel for this year's star studded event along with the team from the Global Gift Gala and Ben from Outrage Events, we came up with a magical design for the grand ballroom.
On Saturday whilst we were erecting the huge flower wall of roses and hydrangeas I was introduced to Eva Longoria Baston (Honorary Chair) and founder of the charity, Maria Bravo. It was great to meet two women so heavily involved in such an amazing cause and to feel their excitement in the buildup to the event.
We worked hard to create huge displays to sit on the guest tables, as well as chalices of roses, dahlias and textured foliage set off by amazing lighting that the guys from the production company had fitted earlier in the day.
Jason and I were lucky enough to have been invited to the whole evening and what a treat! And to see the whole event take place in front of our beautiful flower wall was a real honour for us to see. From the champagne reception on arrival, to mingling with the stars all night including Gordon Ramsey, David & Victoria Beckham, Pamela Anderson, Jack Whitehall, Alesha Dixon and my personal favourite that really got the party going, Craig David. It was an amazing experience that I will never forget and all for such a great cause.
Nick Ede - founder of East of Eden - made a display of public thanks to me and the team for the flowers at the beginning of the evening which I was really touched by.
