Prosperity 247 Offices 24th November

Some people pull out all the stops for their events. When the invite to Prosperity 247’s Christmas Party arrived, in all its Barbie-themed glory, it was clear that this one was going to be maximum effort. When the CEO has gone to the trouble of getting himself a real Ken-style rubber chest, it really is leading from the front. The team and invited guests followed the lead with strong outfits everywhere. We particularity liked the Kiley 1/1 Barbie box (top right)! Guests enjoyed a casino night and tasty catering, along with drinks from the convenient in-office bar. 

L’Horizon Hotel 30th September

Geoff Holt MBE, founder of Wetwheels was guest speaker at a gathering that marked 10 years of Wetwheels’ work,  inspiring attendees who support the charity.

Sustainability is more important than ever, especially in sectors like construction.

The Square 5th October 

More than 300 guests joined the Collas Crill team at The Square (all lit up in Collas Crill pink), for its annual Jersey drinks party on 5 October 2023. The evening kicked off in earnest with a warm welcome from Collas Crill’s Local Managing Partner, Pamela Doherty. Guests were then served drinks, including a bespoke Collas Crill IPA named “Judge and Brewery”, enjoyed delicious canapés, and were entertained into the early hours with music from Elsie and the Emeralds. It was a fantastic evening and a great chance to catch up.  Collas Crill would like to thank everyone who came along.

The Royal Yacht 17th November 

The Jersey Estate Agents Association Ball takes place every two years and this year was a fund-raising event for ABC Jersey, the charity that offers support to islanders affected by breast cancer. It’s clear the season’s trend for partywear is sequins, with the attendees glittering appropriate for the theme of the event. The guests enjoyed arrival drinks sponsored by Places.je as a steel band played contemporary tunes with a twist. The night featured both a raffle and auction in aid of ABC, in addition to a diamond giveaway sponsored by Catherine Best. The dancefloor went wild with glitter and sequins and there were even some shirts and tuxedos taking part too – the sign of a good event.

CCA Galleries International 16th November

To celebrate the last days of Tim Le Breuilly’s show International Waters at CCA Galleries International, the artist has invited musicians Tom Oxenham and Jo Thorpe to perform a range of both traditional and original songs inspired by the sea, local maritime legends and tales. It really was the perfect accompaniment to Tim’s work. Attendees could really get into the right mindset as they examined the seascapes to a nautically-relevant soundtrack. More Private Views and gallery events should come with music!
