BBQ with a view!

It was a barmy summers evening for our Kings Cross based clients as we hosted their office Garden Party for 70 guests - just the most perfect location and weather!

Guests started arriving from 6.30pm, as the string quartet played a collection of chilled classics, welcomed by our bar staff serving Champagne.  

Four different food stations presented a delicious selection of foods for guests to tempt them.
