We worked with Palace Cinemas James Street to hire a private cinema for the screening, complete with beverages and canapés on arrival by Boheme Event Caterers, and audio visual needs covered by EventX. We secured Bianca Restaurant‘s upstairs private dining room for a delicious Italian dinner, with floral styling by Bouquet Boutique and custom menus and place cards by Jennifer Gauld Design.
