RECEPTIONS AT THE IVORY
from the first toast to the final song
YOUR RECEPTION AT THE IVORY
From the first glass to the final song
Following the ceremony, the celebration continues within the Chalk Hill property. Welcome drinks and canapés give way to dining, speeches and dancing, allowing each part of the reception to unfold naturally within the one private setting.
Every element—from the layout and styling to the menu, wine and flow of the evening—is considered together and shaped around the celebration you want to create.
THE ATMOSPHERE
Whether relaxed and intimate or energetic and abundant, the reception is shaped around the mood you want to create.
AROUND THE TABLE
The layout, dining style and progression of the menu are considered around the way you want your guests to come together.
THE CELEBRATION
From speeches and the first dance to the final moments of the evening, the experience is planned to unfold naturally.
