The concept for this event, an evening of fine dining for forty guests, took as its theme the jewel-like colours of Autumn. The event was a joint promotion showcasing the work of event caterers By Word of Mouth and the venue potential of the Natural History Museum, with lighting designers Wise Productions and the floral decoration team of Simon J Lycett Ltd.
An intimate atmosphere was achieved in a grand space, through the use of creative lighting to pick out colours and details in the tableware, floral decorations and the venue architecture.
By Word of Mouth combined various tableware ranges from Jones Hire to invoke an atmosphere of elegance and glamour.
