A saxophonist will give your dinner party a much smoother, rich ambience. Playing soulful music, a Saxophonist will perform for your guests giving them an original background sound! 

You cannot beat the sound of a Saxophone!

3. Fun Casino

Setup a private casino in your living room with Blackjack, Poker or Roulette. You play with fun money but the competition is high. Using full size casino tables – it’s just like the real thing.

4. Silhouette Artist

Imagine a skilled artist cutting the silhouette of each of your dinner party guests out of a piece of black card and then presenting it to them in a card they can keep forever.

Charles Burns has cut many notable portraits, including two silhouettes of the Queen. He is the UK’s busiest silhouette artist, working at a huge variety of events at home and overseas.

5. String Quartet

If you want the soundtrack to your party to be a cello & violin you need to hire a string quartet. Professional musicians playing classic or modern music, it’s the perfect soundtrack to your party.

6. Murder Mystery

How about turning your dinner party into a night of mystery? A murder has been committed and you and your guests need to work out who the killer is?

7. Ice Sculpture

Whilst not exactly dinner party entertainment an ice sculpture is an amazing centrepiece to your evening; alternatively why not have some vodka based fun with a vodka ice luge?
