Every Vintage Girl's Dream of a Cocktail...Meet Cocktailbox!

Just think back to the number of occasions you’ve attended where you’ve been offered the usual welcome drink: a glass of bubbly, red wine or orange juice. Well, how does a freshly made cocktail sound instead?

Cocktailbox can offer a range of cocktails including non alcoholic, for any event - minus the bartender and the high cost. Their process is simple. Customers can order anything they like! The cocktails are then mixed by a mixologist and delivered to your door in a chillable fridge box. It’s then simply a case of serving them to your guests, and waiting for the inevitable smile of shock!

Whilst Cocktailbox serve up their creations for any type of event, they are seeing much success with weddings. Co-owner, Alison Orton, tells us more in her own words:

“We can offer a fabulous alternative for weddings. If you prefer the welcome drink to be a cocktail, most venues couldn't handle dispensing 200+ drinks at once - so with our ready-made fresh cocktails we can deliver that instantly. Plus it makes a change to the usual drinks served and can add that special personal touch to the day,” she says.

The company are finding that, while their average drink cost is around £2.20, many drinks are now coming in at under £2.00 per serving - often cheaper than a can of bulk-beer or wine, bought from a supermarket.

Cocktailbox have supplied to corporate customers too and more recently supplied drinks for an event held by clothing chain River Island. The company certainly found their experience with Cocktailbox to be a sweet success - leaving a testimonial that read “The cocktails were excellent and went down really well with everyone!”

We are thrilled to be showing the work of Annamarie Stepney Photography at our fair.

Annamarie is a photographer who likes to do things a little differently…her style is fresh, real and fun. She loves weddings that are relaxed, personal, a little quirky and full of love & laughter!

You can trust Annamarie to capture your day as it unfolds…thus telling your own unique wedding story.  

 

Here’s what Annamarie says about herself…

“I love being a photographer. I am extremely lucky to be able to do what I love for a living

My style is relaxed, fun and professional.  It is a mix of photojournalism and creative portraiture. I strive to create a personalised ‘VIP’ experience. For me it is the whole experience that counts.  I believe photography should be fun and tell your story, whatever it may be. It should remind you of your best moments in life, and be something you cherish forever.

Creating beautiful photographic images is what I do, and ensuring you have happy memories along the way is what I’m about.”

Here’s what some of Annamarie’s past clients have said about her…

“I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for being so great before/during our wedding!  It was lovely to meet you and have you be a part of our day.  Everyone said how lovely and helpful you are (and thanks for the tips for the flowers/button holes etc!), and we’re really over the moon with the photos.

Thanks!

Amy & Andy xx”

 “Thank you for capturing our wedding so perfectly. We have such incredible memories of the day and can't look at the photos without laughing, crying and being filled with huge amounts of emotion!!! We are absolutely delighted with them.

Thank you again - I can't recommend you enough to other couples getting married.

Lots of love,

Judy & Kay xx”

“I just wanted to drop you an email to say thank you so much for making the photography part of Sarah and James’ wedding day so much fun!  I have been to so many weddings where the photographs seem to take an age.  You also played an important part in keeping us all calm and in making it a really enjoyable occasion.  I can’t wait to see the images!

Many thanks indeed.

Amy   xx”
