We are thrilled to share our recent experience delivering the technical production for one of the most breathtaking weddings of the season, held at the iconic Victoria & Albert Museum. This remarkable celebration, recently featured by Vogue, brought together elegance, romance, and an unrivalled energy—an unforgettable evening for all involved.

Picking Up the Brief: Collaboration with Chenai Bukutu

Working alongside renowned wedding planner Chenai Bukutu of By Chenai, our team was brought in late in the planning process to deliver a seamless technical solution. Chenai’s vision and professionalism ensured that, despite the tight turnaround, every detail was meticulously realised and the event was executed to perfection—leaving guests and the happy couple speechless.

Setting the Scene: Bespoke Draping by Draping Bliss

The transformation of the museum’s dramatic Dome was achieved in close collaboration with our trusted partners at Draping Bliss. Layered velvet drapes elegantly softened the architecture and framed the top table, creating a luxurious, intimate atmosphere that was both grand and inviting.

An Evening of Elegance and Energy

The dining experience was imbued with warmth and romance, thanks to a carefully curated lighting design that complemented the candlelight and beautiful florals by Veveers Carter. Throughout dinner, guests were treated to a sophisticated performance by the talented Okiem, whose trademark style set a mesmerising tone.

As dinner drew to a close, the atmosphere shifted into high gear. Our lighting and sound design transformed the venue into a top-tier nightclub, with back-to-back DJ sets keeping the dancefloor packed well into the early hours. The seamless transition from an enchanting dinner to a pulsating party was a testament to the expertise and dedication of our team.

We are proud to have played a part in creating such a spectacular event—one that captured both the grandeur of the venue and the vibrant, romantic spirit of the celebration.
