How easy is it to organise an event for the ultra-rich?

Specialising in superyacht and villa events on the French Riviera, Angels Bespoke Events provides a comprehensive high‐end luxury service for events of all sizes, creating an unforgettable experience for hosts and their guests.

Linda Johnson, Director and Owner of the company spoke with Yachting Pages about why she works and thrives in the pressured environment of event organisation. "I love what I do! There is never a dull moment to my day, which is full of energy, creativity and challenges. I enjoy creating fantastic and memorable experiences for all of my clients, each one completely different from the other.  I feel privileged to have the opportunity to deliver some great events and work with such amazing suppliers and venues. 

Working in conjunction with some of the best suppliers, their services include catering, entertainment, decoration, furniture and tableware hire, lighting and sound, venue sourcing, staff, security, and flowers.

Lisa Peck, global marketing manager of Fraser Yachts commented on a cocktail party the company organised on board a 58M motor yacht at the 2013 Monaco Yacht Show. “Thank you for organising everything for our client event on board motor yacht Idol during the Monaco Yacht Show.  All of our guests had a wonderful time, the food, staff and entertainment were great.  Everything ran very smoothly and we look forward to working with you again in the future."

Angels Bespoke Events work with clients on a one‐to‐one basis to style the event exactly to their needs and bring your vision to life. With a focus on excellent customer service and meticulous attention to detail, they can produce events of all sizes. From private dinners and cocktail parties to product launches, corporate events, weddings, birthdays and VIP parties they will co‐ordinate every detail from concept to completion.

A feather all great event organisers should have in their cap is the ability to adapt and pull a magical experience out of the bag even at very short notice. Angels Bespoke Events managed this when they were asked to organize a fairy and pirates themed 7^th birthday on board a 50m motor yacht. Jen, chief stewardess, of the 50m private yacht said of the event, “A massive THANK YOU for pulling it off in such short notice. It was a great day and we had two very happy owners at the end of it."  

Linda continued, “Every event is different and every host has different expectations, but if you can remember the basics you will be on your way to having happy guests!

The two primary elements that bring people to a party, and keep them there is great music and a well stocked bar! Add to this some decoration and you can totally transform the venue. Don’t forget the lighting too which is also important because this can dictate the ambiance and mood of the event. 

“So to recap…

‐ Have good music or entertainment
‐ Stock the bar well, you don’t want to run out of drinks!
‐ Theming and Styling – You can transform a venue with a bit of decoration
‐ Lighting – Create the atmosphere and mood of the event

“That may all sound very easy, but planning a party is hard work! And if you want to relax, be stress free and enjoy it yourself, leave it up to the experts!”
