CHARLIE FROM EYE FILM ON THE VIDEO


The Eye Film team conducted videos in our 17th century barn, which we used as a recording studio on the day.

Q. What makes an authentic video? A. Something that makes it feel genuine, rather than just a promotion. So honesty, a sense that the day has been captured and documented, and hopefully a sense of fun and enjoyment. As documentary film makers that is our ambition.


How the events world pulls together and has innovated with this unique, quality approach in the heart of Kent is a story in itself of entrepreneurial and changing times.


FINE FOOD WITH RUSTIC CHARM We had so many wonderful comments about the food and service. It was really important to reflect Kent as the Garden of England with its glorious heritage as a food producer and now as a modern gourmet centre with marvellous local produce. As one international guest commented,


“the food seemed


to flow to you just as you were ready for the next bite”. It was beautifully presented and adorned with edible flowers that promised a taste of summer. The staff exuded enjoyment, passion and care and were part of the experience in true hospitality


style, which resonated


with our guests. Home Gurr’own specialise


in rustic, rural weddings and corporate occasions in Kent and East Sussex. It was the perfect choice


for the Future of Work


Festival. Almost all the ingredients for our menu were either sourced from the surrounding Kent and East Sussex countryside or grown on its smallholding. This means you get a menu that is unique, fresh and local, says Head Chef and owner Nicci Gurr, who previously worked for Albert Roux of Roux Fine Dining.

THE AWARDS CEREMONY VIDEO


We also served English wine,


beer, cider and juice from Kent and neighbouring counties. As it was the fifteenth


anniversary of the Awards, we must mention the cake and the exquisite miniature


delights, which were


designed and crafted by respected pastry chef, Chris Underwood at the recently opened Artisserie, a fine English patisserie in Tenterden High Street. Speaking to Fred Holmsted when


the Tree Marquee was finally taken down and everything had gone we all agreed it had been a fabulous success. “We were delighted when the team at Relocate Magazine asked us to provide our stunning new Tree Marquee for their flagship event, the Future of Work Festival. It provided the perfect backdrop for a day of networking and idea- sharing,” said Fred.


We are now thinking about next year...


We would like to hear from you about how you would like to get involved. The marquee could be used for a week or longer. There is also the potential to include a charity or fundraising event. Let’s hear your ideas and build on


this year’s success to make something special happen again here in Lamberhurst next June. Please email Fiona at events@relocatemagazine.com with suggestions of how you would like to be involved.


Q. What is special about a live outdoor event? A. Well, you take a risk, but when the weather was as generous as it was then a real sense of peace, wellness and allowing for things to take place at an appropriate pace.
