That time of year is fast approaching, when our calendars become full of social engagements, celebrations and parties. We started the festivities last week, hosting our annual AWM Diwali Dinner at one of London’s most luxurious developments, Lillie Square.

With Diwali around the corner and Christmas not too far behind, it seems the dinner jackets and dancing shoes are being dusted off ready for all the lovely celebrations ahead of us.

Last week, we kicked off the Autumn festivities with our annual Diwali Dinner – an intimate dinner for 30 guests which this year took place at the luxurious Lillie Square in Fulham, a luxury development consisting of apartments, townhouses and penthouses.

After being collected by a fleet of Porsche Panameras and Cayennes, guests were guided to one of the penthouses on the 14th floor overlooking the West London skyline.

To start off the evening Perrier Jouet provided champagne from their Blanc de Blanc range accompanied by Absolut Elyx Vodka cocktails.

An introduction to the evening was hosted by Asian Wealth’s Commercial Director Sunny Patel and Lillie Square’s James Lane who welcomed the guests and talked not only of the development but of the importance of reconnecting during these festive times.

Guests were then guided down to the bar at ‘The Clubhouse’ where Perrier Jouet’s Head of Luxury addressed the guests and explained the partnership between AWM and Perrier Jouet, along with Absolut Elyx and Chivas which were served throughout the evening.

Throughout the dinner our partners including Investec Private Bank, Soneva, Etihad Airways and NazranRoth all had the opportunity to network and address the guests with a few words.

A special few words were provided by motivational speaker and author Alpesh Patel who talked about what happens when you have it all. How do you continuously move forward and do you really do the things in life which matter?

Mouthwatering canapes and a butler serviced three-course-meal was provided by Payal catering and eye catching art was provided by AWM’s art columnist Jana Manuelpillai of The Nobel Sage.

“This is one of the best dinners we have hosted and working with our amazing partners not to mention having great guests,” said AWM Founder and Publisher, Kalpesh Patel.” It brings back a real sense of what these festivities are really about…reconnecting with friends old and new and sharing the company of wonderful souls.”
