Brief:
To create something spectacular for an upcoming 50th birthday party
Solution:
Transforming the family home into a fully functioning pub, for one night only. This traditional British theme created the perfect setting for a party with friends and family, and was fully personalised according to the clients exact wishes.
As always, attention to detail was paramount. The transformation turned garden, kitchen and living room into ‘The ffitch Arms’, bringing in a genuine pub bar, spirit taps, fruit machine and all the world’s pork scratchings! Theming was completed with bespoke beer mats, hanging baskets and pub games.
Along with traditional bar snacks guests enjoyed street food from some of London’s top vendors, including the famous Bill or Beak, who served up slowly braised duck and pork with a homemade smoked paprika dressing, topped off with a Japanese pickled leek and buttermilk mayo, and duck and pork with a Vietnamese dressing, a coriander, chilli and mint salad, and tempura shallots. Also on offer was food by pop-up The Pickled Fork, who served up a classic pub favourite – Cumberland Sausage, mash and rosemary gravy.
The party proved a great success with the ffitch family and their guests, who celebrated at the ffitch Arms long into the night!
