Corporate Bollywood Party for Wilco Precast

Dear Anju – Bollywood Parties

Thank You so very much for organising and running the most amazing Bollywood party for our work Xmas function. From our first meeting, your professionalism was apparent and I knew that this was going to be something special. You were more than accommodating to the numerous staff that came for fittings for their costumes and they all looked amazingly authentic.

Our evening started with a Sitar playing while guests arrived followed by an official Indian welcome. Then our costumes (Oh how amazing we all felt in the gorgeous Sari, the fun Bollywood DJ and the colourful themed venue. We were entertained by numerous Indian dancers while eating a tasty authentic Indian dinner. No detail was missed. After dinner, our staff were treated to a lesson in Bollywood dancing which was so much fun and such a delight for our Indian staff to watch us enjoying their culture.

The evening ran like clockwork and I could enjoy our guests and dancing knowing that Anju had it all under control. Beautiful Indian bags and jewellery boxes were given to the ladies at the completion of the evening which was a perfect end to a perfect night. So much fun was had by all.

There was another work party in the next-door room and they all came and joined us dancing to Bollywood music after seeing how much fun we were having. Thank You so much Anju for making our xmas party one to remember.

The staff have already said that we are definitely having another Bollywood party next year.

It was wonderful having the Bollywood Party host our Catering, decoration and entertainment for our son's pre-wedding function. All the guests enjoyed the evening, and the food was great. We still talk about the food which was really well prepared and served. All the guests enjoyed the evening and we will definitely recommend a Bollywood Party to anyone who wants to sit down and enjoy the good food and entertainment

From the moment I met Anju, I felt at ease and it was like chatting to a friend.

She dressed myself and my husband, and as someone who doesn’t really like dress-up/themed parties, as soon as I saw the beautiful saree, that thought went out the window! Anju’s expertise is second to none, her clothes are authentic and truly stunning! Once I had the saree on and all the jewellery (the headgear was a favourite!) I felt like a Bollywood actress!!

Do yourself a favour, and don’t go past Anju if you are having a Bollywood party. 10/10”

Bollywood Hen party

Hi Anju, We had a really good night and the Bollywood dancing was the highlight of our hen night. Loved the costumes, and you had a great sense of humour! Not a negative word to say! Thank you.
