A Secret Garden themed Summer Ball at The Hurlingham Club

We are really proud to work with the International Advertising Association having just provided full-scale event management and production. Oxygen designed, created and produced the IAA Summer Ball for the eleventh year working closely with the social committee and their sponsors to transform the Hurlingham Club into a Secret Garden for their annual Summer Ball. 

Working to each sponsors brief, we created Interactive areas within the venue including a beautiful green fresh flower wall photo opportunity with accents of purple flowers popping through, and a stunning foliage bar with bespoke branding complete with mixologists mixing Mojito’s, a blueberry mojito. 

From concept to creation, the venue was truly transformed into a secret garden party, the icing on the cake were the fresh florals hanging over the dance floor which on arrival, guests passed through and later provided a stunning backdrop for guests to party to Beats Boutique a DJ, Percussion and Sax trio.

Lauren and Ollie’s Kew Gardens Wedding

It has been a pleasure to work on so many of the wonderful weddings we waited so long to deliver as we emerged out of lockdown. Lauren and Ollie’s was no exception, beautifully planned and executed, a true romantic celebration of love in a spectacular setting.  

Lauren and Ollie held their wedding at Kew Gardens with the ceremony in the Nash Conservatory and the wedding breakfast and party held in the Temperate House. 

The Temperate House was lit using uplighters throughout, a soft break up wash to the walkways and festoon strings which followed the short walkways and over the dance floor. The front of the Temperate House was beautifully lit with lighting to the fascia and stairs to greet guests as they arrived. The dance floor set up created a sharp look, with black dance floor and staging, sunstrips and moving lights. Full band audio was provided by Oxygen.

Oxygen supports Hedsor House October Showcase

We provided a beautiful lighting installation to Hedsor House for their October Showcase. 

Making the most of the changing season, the venue was filled with stunning autumnal decor by some of Hedsors handpicked suppliers including red and orange floral decorations and mini pumpkins provided by Richard Elder Floral Design as well as beautiful golden trees from Twilight Trees. We complimented the design with subtle and soft amber lighting throughout the venue which created a warming atmosphere and gave couples the chance to see the venue lit up.

Micro Weddings

A beautiful intimate wedding at Kew Gardens under COVID19 restrictions

Tom and Lizzie held their beautiful intimate wedding at Kew Gardens under Government COVID19 restrictions with 15 of their closest friends and family.

The ceremony and wedding breakfast were both held in the stunning surroundings of the Nash Conservatory, a truly breath-taking venue and Lizzie and Tom ensured the day was filled with so much love, laughter, personal touches and pretty details including a beautiful meadow aisle under the backdrop of a beautiful autumn day. The venue acted as the perfect centre stage for their very special day.

We feel truly honoured to be part of people’s special days and being involved in a micro wedding makes us incredibly proud to do what we do, adding the finishing touches to carefully planned details and being able to watch these moments come to life.

We can’t wait to continue to work with more couples and more special moments!

#WeMakeEvents is campaigning the government for significant financial support for the people and companies in the events sector supply chain, to reflect the ongoing lockdown of live events and pathways for getting our industry back to work. 

We are joining in coming together with our industry to Stand As One for the Global Day of Action at 8pm tonight and will #LightInRed Freemasons Hall to show that the industry is on red alert and needs urgent support. We do this to show people what will be lost if we allow this creative, vibrant, and cultural industry to fall.
