Working in conjunction with event company Exosphere we were asked to help support a private event for a 40th birthday party with our creative cocktails for events, flair bartenders and more! Taking place at the fantastic event venue the Workx in Parsons Green, London, this private party was carried out with a full enchanted forest theme, including enchanted cocktails, themed mobile bars, mood lighting and more.
Prior to the event we had a small consultation meeting with the client in London where we discussed the enchanted forest theme and tasted and created a bespoke range of enchanted cocktails specifically for this event. Prior to any event we are always happy to meet and talk through all and any requirements you may have, we can prepare cocktails for you to try and our in house design team can create various mock up images of how your mobile bar or event theme will look!
The client opted for two of our mobile bars from our HD range, which includes high definition imagery and LED backlighting behind the mobile bar. In keeping with the enchanted forest themed event we opted to go with the log effect mobile bar and the grass effect mobile bar, both of which look almost identical to the real thing, despite being entirely graphical. If this isn’t to your taste however, do not worry, we also have a huge selection of mobile bars to choose from in our Classic Range that include genuine wood fronted bars, mirrored mobile bars and more.
Alongside our two mobile bars we also provided flair bartenders who served the enchanted cocktails all evening alongside providing an added element of entertainment as they manipulate cocktails in barware in ways you never thought possible. And just because you can never have enough places to get a drink, we also factored in our portable gin bar – take a look at this little beauty in more detail here.
The gin bar slotted in perfectly with the enchanted forest themed event with its rustic design and added green mood lighting. From our gin bar the around 100 guests in attendance could enjoy five different gins and three different flavoured tonics, including a wide selection of fresh garnish and plenty of cubed ice. In addition to the two mobile bars, flair bartenders and portable gin bar we also put on a small cocktail reception on arrival using these fabulous reclaimed wooden crates (above), living moss, served on a bed of dry ice. The props, dry ice and living moss certainly had the desired affect and created an enchanted feel. We always relish an opportunity to put together some creative cocktails for events and this was certainly a recent favourite of ours! A great choice by the client.
The two cocktails we created form scratch with the client included:
Rosemary and Pear
Vodka, Pore William Liquor, Lemon Juice, Pear Puree, Sugar Syrup and Fresh Rosemary. Served in a conical flask.
Creamy and Stormy
Appleton rum, Falernum Syrup, Lime juice, Ginger beer, topped with a foam of bourbon, pistachio and egg white. Served in a crystal cut tumbler.
