Aynhoe Park 50th Birthday Party
To create an intimate 50th birthday party surrounded by international friends of all ages in a glamorous, shabby chic environment. Lots of apples and good entertainment were also key for the host, and little did she know The Gipsy Kings would be part of the plan...
Guests arrived at the luxurious private stately home, Aynhoe Park, and were greeted by butlers and eccentric works of art around every corner. The travelling tiredness was aided with the comfort of the lavish bedrooms and decadent high tea. Whilst the adults relaxed and pampered for the evening ahead, the children were kept well entertained by the programme of activities lined up for the weekend.
The extravaganza began with supper in the grand Orangery, filled with elegant apple table centrepieces, tealights and dappled light. Replicating a magical, Baroque banquet, the guests couldn’t stop taking photos and the room was buzzing.
The evening led to a surprise entertainment act by the host in another room with a red, shiny apple cake the size of a yoga ball, in the meantime the Orangery was quickly transformed into a space for The Gipsy Kings to perform. The 12 piece band had to sneak through the venue and sound test without a trace… the results were phenomenal; the host was mesmerised and the party kicked off!
After a night of partying downstairs at the after party, the guests were welcomed with a banquet of Russian breakfast delights followed by a line up of British countryside entertainment to send them off ready for their flight home…
