Sue Hunter Head of Communications (Barclay Card)

We heard about ‘The Occasional Table’ indirectly through word of mouth and what a fantastic and well organised company they are.  Barclaycard wanted to have a late Summer Bash and with every job you’ve never got enough time to organise and plan a big party during working hours.  The Occasional Table took all the stress away for us – we basically gave them a very vague remit and they came back with several suggestions to make our party special.  The event took place in the grounds of Ormesby Hall in a marquee and the standard of the organisation, marquee, food and overall detail was brilliant.  Over 350 colleagues from Barclaycard attended and the booze and food flowed all evening with an exceptional band and DJ as the entertainment.  Even the mobile ‘loos’ were special and ever so posh.  The event has gone down in history as being the best event that Barclaycard have ever hosted and that’s all down to the Occasional Table.  We’d highly recommend them to anyone hosting a large function / event or wedding.  The evening was something very special at a realistic price and a company not to forget.  A huge many thanks to Chris Robinson and his team for such a memorable evening.

Susie Scott (Duncombe Park Wedding)

'Thank you again for your crucial part in Hannah and Tony’s wedding at Duncombe Park last Saturday. You listened to their original ideas just as they took note of your vast experience. The result, thanks to your discreet direction, was a delicious meal with good progression. Please thank all your staff both in the kitchen and serving all were pleasant and most importantly I don’t think any one had an empty glass.'
