A Milestone Birthday

The brief

A surprise celebration for a milestone birthday, with a guest list small enough that every table needed to feel considered.

The concept

We drew the design from the honouree's life rather than a trend — her colours, her flowers, references to places that mattered to her worked into the stationery and the tablescape.

The execution

A single room transformed in a day, with a guest flow designed so the surprise landed cleanly and the evening moved without an obvious programme.
