A unique collection of vintage Aston Martins formed a guard of honour to herald the launch of the awe inspiring DB11. A luxury marque such as Aston Martin deserves only the best and the Vanilla Bean team were drafted in to ensure a perfect occasion was marked with outstanding food and service.
The brief: On brand luxury launch event
With one of the highest profile car launches in recent years the Aston Martin team wanted to ensure their 150 guests were all looked after with the same standards of luxury personified by their brand. Our brief was to pair quintessentially British food, drink and styling with timeless brand values of their iconic cars.
The 130 guests enjoyed a collection of personalised cocktails, champagne bellini’s, wine and Surrey hills craft beer, as well as a beautiful three course wedding breakfast under a tropical canopy, with vintage bird cages and cascading flowers.
