Bonnie and Tony’s Wedfest is their most important gig of all
WELL folks, it’s all official – I’m now Mrs Tony Laurenson. My husband and I (isn’t that just so cute) have been working together for nearly 30 years and have been life partners for the past 12 years, but on 31 August at the Registry Office at Chelsea Old Town Hall we finally became Mr and Mrs. Typically my man didn’t get down on one knee, instead – in his own intrepid way – Tony popped the question to me via a text message as he was drinking with a friend who was to be his Best Man!
About 30 family and very close friends witnessed the occasion followed by a mouth-watering lunch in The Ivy Brasserie in Chelsea Gardens, just along the road from the Registry Office. Fab food in their private dining room was the perfect setting for this intimate celebration.
Regular readers know that our business, Global Infusion Group, caters parties for celebrities and large organisations around the globe, however two days after the official proceedings we hosted our most important and fun gig of all… our own Wedfest. This being the second time around the marital clock for both of us, Tony and I wanted to cast aside the normal formalities in favour of a ‘Festival Chic’ occasion with the kind of catering and entertainment for which we are renowned.
