Summer Party Planner Surrey and London
Summer Party Planner
Surrey and London
Summer arrives with a particular kind of expectation in Surrey and London. Gardens come into their own, the light lingers well into the evening and the season invites entertaining on a scale that happens only once a year. As a summer party planner serving Surrey and London's most discerning hosts, Halls and Halls Privé brings the full weight of its relationships, creativity and operational precision to every event we touch. Founded by Lizzie Liebenhals and rooted in Cobham, we have spent years perfecting the art of the outdoor occasion, from intimate garden lunches in Holland Park to expansive marquee celebrations across the Surrey hills. We are creators of sensations, deliverers of memories, keepers of secrets.
The season deserves
an event equal to it
Entirely Bespoke
Every summer event begins with a conversation about how you live and how you like to entertain. That understanding shapes every decision, from florists to the timing of the evening.
Absolute Discretion
We do not publicise client relationships or share guest lists. The best evidence of our work is the trust of the people we work for, and we guard that carefully.
Seamless Delivery
On the day, a dedicated event manager takes full responsibility for every detail. Your role is to be a guest at your own party. Ours is to make certain everything around you is extraordinary.
A bespoke approach, built on
trust and long relationships
The Brief Comes First
Every summer event we plan begins not with a venue or a theme, but with a conversation. We want to understand how you live, how you like to entertain and what you want your guests to feel when they arrive. That understanding shapes every decision that follows, from the selection of florists and musicians to the way the evening is timed and managed. A bespoke party planning approach is not an optional extra; it is the only way we know how to work.
Supplier Relationships That Matter
Over many years of luxury event management across Surrey and London, we have cultivated relationships with the finest suppliers in the region. Our florists, caterers, tent and marquee specialists, security teams and entertainment acts are not sourced from directories; they are trusted partners whose quality and temperament we know intimately. These relationships translate directly into what your guests experience on the day.
Discretion as Standard
Many of our clients are public figures, senior executives or families whose privacy matters deeply to them. We do not use events as a vehicle for our own visibility, and we do not share what we know about the people we work for. The trust placed in us is treated as a professional obligation, not a courtesy.
Day-of Precision
A senior private event organiser from our team oversees every aspect of your event from the first supplier arrival to the last guest departure. You will not be chasing a caterer, redirecting a delivery or managing a late arrival. That is our work. Yours is simply to enjoy what we have created together.
Services for Your Summer Event
As a full-service luxury party planner, we manage every element of your outdoor event from concept to close. Below are the services most relevant to summer entertaining.
Venue Sourcing
From private estates and walled gardens in Surrey to rooftop terraces and members' club grounds in Chelsea and Notting Hill, we identify settings that match your vision precisely.
Marquees and Outdoor Structures
We work with the country's leading specialists to design outdoor structures that feel architectural rather than temporary, tailored to the landscape they inhabit.
Event Styling and Seasonal Theming
Whether the brief calls for relaxed garden party linens or high-glamour lighting installations, our creative direction brings every detail into coherence.
Floristry
We commission bespoke floristry from a select group of specialists whose seasonal, considered approach creates work that feels grown rather than arranged.
Catering and Private Chefs
We source and brief catering teams whose menus reflect the season and the setting, from long lunches served at leisure to structured evening dinners and late-night grazing.
DJs and Live Bands
From a jazz quartet at drinks to a high-energy DJ set that carries the evening well past midnight, we match the right artists to the right moment.

For clients with private pool settings, we design bespoke pool party experiences with considered styling, service choreography and ambient entertainment.
