The Very Group approached us looking to celebrate the graduation of 12 employees. As in-person graduations were not currently permitted due to COVID-19 restrictions, our client wanted their team to feel as special as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Very Group wanted to provide their graduates with something to experience and something to keep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We knew we had the \u201cexperience\u201d element handled \u2013 it\u2019s what we do! So we opted for a virtual cocktail making class<\/a> as a starting point for this event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enhance this further, a bespoke cocktail was created \u2013 the \u201cVery Berry Graduation Cocktail\u201d. This added a personal element to the experience without impacting the clients\u2019 budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two bespoke cocktail toppers were also added to the packs for each guest; one with the company logo and one simply saying \u201cCongratulations\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking inspiration from a traditional graduation ceremony, we got creative with the \u201csomething to keep\u201d element. In the pack, we sourced and included one of the most iconic graduation elements \u2013 mortarboards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wanted to replicate a graduation certificate to complete the \u2018ceremony\u2019 \u2013 making the \u2018note from host\u2019 usually included in our packs, into a personal graduation scroll. We used heavyweight, high-quality paper \u2013 rolled and fastened with a red ribbon. Fun fact: our team actually took an online class to ensure the ribbons were perfectly tied, which they were!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wanted to take the \u201csomething to keep\u201d element one step further, and decided to include a full-size bottle of prosecco in each pack. Although the client had initially considered engraving the bottles for a personalised touch, we opted for bespoke labels \u2013 giving a high end feel to the finished product and allowing a level of personalisation beyond what is possible with regular engraving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Careful understanding and a little imagination allowed us to create an event that both delighted the client and gave us the opportunity to exceed expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our client felt in safe hands throughout the planning process and was pleased with the result, posting a great testimonial on LinkedIn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
