London Lifestyle Awards 2011
Here at Handmade Headquarters we were busy beavering away behind the scenes getting everything ready for the London Lifestyle Awards 2011 to ensure this year’s London Lifestyle Awards went off with an almighty bang.- which of course it did.
Preparations for the awards started back in February and we have been working hard for all the nominee’s ever since.
On the day of the awards Team LLA headed down to the River Bank Plaza. Job one of the day was goody bags!
We had an amazing team of interns helping us to make up 500 goody bags for all our guests. The lovely Boohoo.com kindly provided us with bags and our star team of interns made a glam production line to fill them to the brim with treats.
After a spot of lunch which included a bucket full of chocolate, sweets and crisps the girls were put into ‘teams’ that included Celebrity team, Goody Bag Team, Team AV and Trophy team.
The rest of the day consisted of sound checks with our host Greg Burns, and celebrity run through of the awards and presenters with the celebrity team. We had to ensure everything was perfect.
When every detail was prepared and perfected it was time to chill and get glam! (Whilst eating pizza!) Nine girls getting ready in one room makes for A LOT of hairspray and bronzer!
At 6.30pm all teams took their places ready for awards to start. Guests and celebrities started to ascend into the hotel lobby and were escorted up to the Thames suite for a cocktail and champagne drinks reception… ready to be seated for a mouth-watering 3-course dinner.
Once everyone was seated; dinner was served. Guest tucked into a Tomato & Basil tart with goats cheese to start, followed by Oriental Five Spice Duck Breast with noodles, vegetables and a sweet chilli jus, topped off with a chocolate and raspberry tart with vanilla cream for dessert.
Once dessert was eaten, our host Greg Burns took the stage…It was show time!
After all the awards had been presented to all our deserving winners it was party time, Contemporary Pianist Clifford Slapper was accompanied by the Hackney Heroine Pauline Pearce who sang her heart out to Wonderful World, followed by a DJ set by Rusty Egan who set the tone for the after-party.
Once guests had grabbed their goody bags they bundled into cabs to our official London Lifestyle Award After Party in the heart of Soho at Zebrano Ganton Street where they danced until dawn to celebrate the City we love.
Team LLA finally called it a night at 3am and were back in the office bright eyed and bushy tailed at 9am ready to start planning next years event.. With the help of bacon sandwiches and a few alkaselters to hand.
