30 colleagues · Three hours
A sociable
end to the week.
Casino evening styling direction.
The brief
A company wants a relaxed gathering that helps colleagues mix beyond their usual teams. The venue has room for hosted activity and a separate area for conversation. There is no lengthy presentation, and guests may arrive over the first half-hour.
The proposed shape
The evening opens with a short welcome, followed by hosted table introductions in manageable groups. A rotation plan helps avoid a queue around one activity. A break in the middle leaves time for refreshments arranged by the company and a brief acknowledgement from the event organiser.
The final activity block closes clearly before the venue finish time, allowing people to say goodbye without the entertainment running into pack-down. Seating remains available for guests who prefer to talk or watch.
What the plan needs to resolve
We would confirm the table mix, number of hosts, guest arrival pattern, venue access and available floor area. Food, drinks and venue hire would sit outside the event service unless specifically included. A named company contact would approve the running order and help communicate any changes.
Where to start the budget
The hosted casino price family is the relevant starting point. A group of 30 may need a broader configuration than the entry scope, so the actual table and staffing plan would determine the proposal.

A birthday
with a storyline.
Mystery evening styling direction.
The brief
A host wants an evening that gives several groups of friends a shared experience. Some enjoy dressing up, while others prefer a lighter role. The event should include time for food, a birthday moment and conversation without losing the thread of the story.
The proposed shape
Guests receive clear advance guidance about the theme and expected participation. On arrival, the facilitator introduces the story and explains how clues will be shared. Early rounds encourage people to speak to different guests, with enough structure to keep the information manageable.
The activity pauses for the separately arranged meal and birthday moment, then resumes with the final clues and reveal. The last part of the evening remains open for photographs and conversation. A small number of styling features establishes the setting without reducing usable table space.
What the plan needs to resolve
We would agree the story tone, content sensitivities, role allocation and the way guests can participate without performing. The scope would identify printed material, props, facilitation and any additional actors or costumes. The host would confirm meal timing and who can make decisions on the day.
Where to start the budget
The team and mystery price family covers the activity starting point. Additional styling or a longer hosted programme may require a combined scope, with each element shown in the proposal.

Recognition,
then celebration.
Corporate gala styling direction.
The brief
An organisation wants to recognise a team and give guests time to celebrate together. The event needs a branded arrival, a clear awards sequence and a social programme afterwards. The room must work for both seated attention and informal movement.
The proposed shape
Arrival and photographs lead into a welcome and the first part of the meal. A concise awards block follows, with the presentation order, names and microphone cues agreed in advance. A suitable backdrop gives photographs a consistent setting without distracting from the speaker.
Once formal acknowledgements are complete, the programme shifts into a hosted social activity. Guests can join in or continue conversations. The finish allows for closing remarks, goodbyes and the agreed supplier removal window.
What the plan needs to resolve
We would review sightlines, sound, the presentation area, artwork, rehearsal time and the handover with the caterer. The organisation would own award decisions and content approval. The proposal would distinguish basic presentation support from specialist staging, filming or technical production.
Where to start the budget
The corporate production price family provides an initial guide. The full guest count, longer programme and any extra activity would be assessed as part of the actual scope.
