Angelique was a life-saver organising my 50th! She is so helpful and knowledgeable, with a great understanding of the style I wanted, everything ran like clockwork. Highly recommend her!

We decided to host a 50th birthday party for my husband at our house and needed help to organise the logistics and to elevate the event beyond a regular house party.
Getting in touch with Angelique to assist was the best decision we made and completely took any stress out of the planning for the event in the days and weeks beforehand.
Angelique is incredibly well organised and got all the main decisions ticked off very early on. She has an extensive network of trusted suppliers who she contacted to check availability and pricing - this alone saved me hours of time having to research and call random suppliers e.g. marquee company, bar team, food truck, portaloos, cake maker, balloon supplier.
In the lead up to the event and on the day Angelique keeps in contact with the suppliers and makes all the necessary arrangements, so we didn't have to worry about any of that. It meant that we were able to fully enjoy the run up to the party and the evening itself and there really wasn't any stress for us at all.
Angelique also set up the invitations and managed the guest list, dietary requirements, accommodation info etc - all these seemingly little jobs that end up taking a lot of time but thankfully we did not have to worry about. On the night itself Angelique was there to help welcome guests and check everything was running smoothly.
The fee that we paid was extremely competitive, particularly now we have seen how much work and time Angelique puts into the event before and on the day. I highly recommend Angelique and Dolce Vita Parties for any event, big or small.
Thank you Angelique for all your help - we will be back in touch for sure when it is my 50th!

We had the enormous pleasure of working with Angelique on our joint 50th party … a Halloween-themed garden party in November … what could go wrong?
In short, nothing! And that was largely due to Angelique’s brilliance as a party organiser. So why would we endorse her so strongly? A few reasons…
1/ she knows everyone and everything. So much great experience and stuff just ‘gets done’. When weather looked iffy, she called in a favour and sourced a fantastic lit covered walkway from a different marquee supplier. In the end it was dry … but the walkway still looked amazing!
2/ outstanding communication. Regular, nicely-paced, efficient, professional but still fun.
3/ imagination - inspiring and creative. She helped us work up so many ideas, and then found the people to make them happen.
4/ finally a huge amount of sheer hard work. She fully throws herself into everything, and made sure our event went brilliantly.
We’ve spent the last week basking in thanks and praise … much of which is due to Angelique! We simply wouldn’t embark on anything similar without her.
Huge thanks Angelique - and please let us know if there is anything we can do!

Angelique was fabulous from the start to the finish of my 50th birthday celebration planning. I decided to throw a party at quite short notice but due to work/travel commitments, I wasn't able to organise it myself. Angelique to the rescue! We had an initial chat on the phone and then in person about what kind of vibe I wanted for the party and I immediately knew I was in very safe and capable hands. Angelique understood exactly what I wanted and delivered precisely that with great energy and humour (very much needed due to my lastminute decision!) ... it was such a wonderful celebration and went so smoothly because of the impeccable organisation. I'm amazed at what Angelique was able to do in a such short period of time. It was a huge success and I am so grateful for her expert help. Highly recommend. More...

We had booked the venue for 70th birthday party before bringing Angelique in. The venue was challenging to say the least (poor access, lack of toilet and cooking facilities), but Angelique dealt effectively with every issue as it arose. She liaised as necessary with guests and the venue manager, while always keeping us informed. She also came up with innovative and attractive ways to decorate the room, while keeping within budget. The end result was a beautiful occasion appreciated by everyone. Even on the day Angelique went above and beyond (including rescuing a disabled couple who had been dumped by their taxi driver!). We will certainly be looking to employ Angelique for our next big celebration. Thank you so much, Angelique! More...

Angelique was a true angel!! The party could not have gone more smoothly nor fantastically!! I literally had one of the best nights of my life and there is no way the magic of the night would have been possible without Angelique's stunning input. She calmed me during the mayhem prior and endlessly suggested suppliers, creative ideas and was ALWAYS available at the drop of a hat. I will be forever and ever grateful and will call on Angelique for every next party ever. She's brilliant and I can't recommend her enough. Thank you Angelique, my party angel!!! xxx More...

I am so pleased we engaged Dolce Vita parties to help organise our garden party. Angelique has immense attention to detail, is super organised and thinks of all of the key elements to make a party a success.
She worked brilliantly with our suppliers and took away all of the stress of hosting so we could really enjoy our own party.
I highly recommend Angelique if you are deciding whether to work with a party organiser!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Angelique for my son's birthday party, and I couldn't be happier with the experience.
Angelique's exceptional organizational skills made the entire preparation process completely stress-free.
From start to finish, she handled every detail with precision and care, allowing me to simply show up and enjoy the event. I didn't have to worry about a thing, and my son had an amazing birthday celebration.
Thank you, Angelique, for making this special day so effortless and memorable!

We held a 60th birthday party, 80s theme. Angelique was great to work with, pulled all my ideas together, adding some of her own and pointing out pitfalls. She sourced everything needed at a good price and a good quality. Most usefully for me she organised all staff and equipment set up on the day. Leaving me to organise myself. I would highly recommend dolce Vita parties. More...

Angelique was truly wonderful in helping to organise an event for myself and around one hundred friends. Her experience was invaluable as she thought of important things that I simply would not have done. The event was an incredibly important one for me and so many other people, the help she gave was amazing in making the day a success which I will always remember. Not only that she’s a genuinely wonderful person who is easy to get hold of and really cares about her clients event being a success. I could not recommend her enough. More...

I absolutely couldn't recommend Angelique enough. I planned a party with 100 people under very short notice. Angelique managed everything from A-Z and the party was flawless. She took away all the stress and actually made the planning process so much fun! She was so cost conscious, warm, organized, calm, creative, helpful... I definitely wouldn't use anyone else moving forward. More...

Thank you!! So much fun working with you on this!

Being a reasonably organised person, I planned and booked my own special birthday celebration. In the lead-up to the big day, things started to become more and more stressful and I found I just didn’t have time to think of the detail that I really hoped for.
Angelique stepped in a few weeks before my party, and was an absolute star in the lead-up to the event and during the party itself! She introduced ideas that made my party feel really personal and special to me whilst thinking about the guests too. Suddenly, it wasn’t just a venue that I had booked but a party full of finishing touches that were just to ticket! My guests are still talking about my fabulous party weeks later. Thank you Angelique!

I was delighted by the personal elements that Dolce Vita Parties incorporated into my recent 50th birthday celebrations. My husband contacted them for help planning a secret party as he did not know where to start. The result was a fantastic and memorable evening! I had no idea of what was in store, the planning was second to none and I was actually amazed that they managed to keep it a secret from me! I highly recommend Dolce Vita Parties for the perfect bespoke party! My 50th was certainly one to remember! More...

I approached Dolce Vita parties to arrange my 50th birthday celebrations. I wanted something personal to me, that would fit my style and personality.
I gave Angelique my brief and she went away and came back with options that were all spot on and that allowed me peace of mind that every single thing was taken care of prior to, post and during my celebrations!
What blew me away was that unbeknown to me Angelique had reached out to my husband to plan a special surprise. On the day I also received a photo album with pictures of me, my family and my friends across all the decades. Pulling together all my favourite people and memories into a book that I still pull out to look at today was very special and has created a lasting memory of my big day!
Angelique’s professionalism, charisma and enthusiasm shone! I could feel that she genuinely cared and her engagement with what I wanted made it easy to choose Dolce Vita Parties over others! I’d highly recommend them as exclusive party planners, especially if you want that extra special touch of class added to your event. Thank YOU, Angelique, for listening and understanding. YOU made my 50th celebration truly memorable for me and my nearest and dearest.
