LUCY'S 40th Birthday Party
We were delighted to be asked by Lucy to organise her 40th Birthday Party at Brooklands Hotel and Spa in Surrey.
Lucy is a very special client, as she actually attended the very first wedding we ever planned back in 2002, Hannah and Giles .
We also had the pleasure of organising her sister's wedding in 2009, Sophie and Tom. So it was such a joy to finally plan an event for Lucy in 2015.
One of the wonderful things about doing this job for so long is that you get to know some families very well and have the pleasure of organising many events for them over the years - 14 years for this lovely family!
