David was recommended to us for venue styling by the Hurlingham Club, where we are an approved supplier. He wanted to host a joint 18th and 21st for his two sons, a black-tie affair with a nightclub feel and a nod to the film Casablanca.

For the ultimate party experience, we suggested keeping everything in one room. The bar and a chill-out area were positioned at one end, with dancing at the other. To set the scene, we draped the walls and provided additional colour through lighting, adding a Moroccan twist with gold voile overlays and floor-standing tower lanterns. Overhead, we installed assorted Moroccan lanterns and these were enhanced with Moorish-themed coloured light pattern projections.

The chill-out area used our low wooden tables and black cube seating and we designed and built a bespoke “Rick’s Café Americain” illuminated sign to hang above the bar. Tables were dressed with coloured linen together with terrariums containing candles alongside votive holders in gold and copper accents.
