Yes, our network provides access to off-the-radar spaces and private venues that aren’t publicly available. These locations range from historical landmarks to secluded modern gems, offering both uniqueness and exclusivity. We aim to offer a rare blend of style and prestige to your event. See our venue finding page for examples of what is on offer.
Venue finding focuses on identifying and securing the ideal space based on your criteria and goals. Event planning involves managing all the event details, from logistics to design, creating a cohesive experience. Together or separately, these services ensure your vision is fully realised.
We begin by understanding your objectives, company culture and brand identity. Every recommendation—venues, designs or logistics—reflects these goals, ensuring alignment with your mission. Our tailored approach integrates seamlessly into your broader strategy.
Where possible, we prioritise eco-conscious choices, such as working with green-certified venues, minimising food waste and supporting local suppliers. We work with venues, chefs and food waste charities to champion eco-friendly practices and reduce food waste in the event industry. Sustainable decor, energy-efficient practices and recycling plans are incorporated at every stage. This ensures your event is impactful yet environmentally responsible.
At Lucy Claire Events we pride ourselves as ‘being unflappable’. It’s important to stay calm, assess the situation, and pivot with swift, professional and strategic solutions. In leveraging collective expertise, delegate effectively and keep communication seamless. The ultimate aim is to ensure the guest experience remains flawless, turning challenges into invisible triumphs.
I have worked as an events photographer many times for Lucy over the years and it has always been an absolute pleasure. Lucy has an exceptional eye for detail, and her events are always beautifully organised with the perfect choice of venue. Lucy’s warm and engaging personality helps her to build a great rapport with her clients, and she is a fantastic person to work for. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Lucy to anyone looking to organise a special event.

I had the pleasure of working with Lucy on a fantastic staff incentive programme in Oxford and Henley. The event itself was challenging due to last minute requirements and client requests but Lucy put together a great team and led from the front ensuring we pulled off the event to the highest possible standard with a smile on our faces! I loved working with Lucy and can’t wait until I am able to join her team again.

I have had the pleasure of working with Lucy and her team for quite some time and found Lucy to be a true professional in everything she does, her communication level is outstanding and her understanding of not only her business but our business is impeccable, this enables both Lucy and I to work in tandem on very high profile events with a clear vision. I would recommend Lucy in a second if any of my clients required the services of a consummate professional at the top of their industry.

I’ve worked with Lucy at Lucy Claire Events for three years and have found her to be the exemplary events planner. Having suddenly lost a key staff member in the US for an event we were hosting in London I was thrown a lifeline by our designer, who said “give Lucy Claire Events a call, I’ve worked with them and they’re very good.” Ten minutes later it felt like a huge weight had been lifted! Lucy’s unflappable manner, charm and deep knowledge of this sector turned a potential maelstrom into a breeze. We’ve used Lucy on every European event since, and I have no hesitation in recommending her and her team.

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for the incredible work you did during the Fintech for Inclusion Global Summit. Your dedication and attention to detail in managing the registration, guest accommodation, networking, catering, during the event and prior to it at the cocktail hour were truly impressive.
Thanks to your efforts, the event ran smoothly, and the feedback we’ve received from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive. Even the CEO of Accion said that it was the best one out of all the Summits and Forums Accion Venture Lab has ever organized. Everyone was obsessed with the venue and the whole set up too. The 1:1 meetings were also a huge highlight! It’s clear that without your teamwork and commitment, we wouldn’t have achieved such a successful outcome.
I’m truly grateful for everything you did and am fortunate to work alongside such a talented and hardworking team. Thank you again for your outstanding contribution!

Amazing! I have had so many personal messages from the guests. They all loved it.
My boss – the Senior Partner on the trip was blown away by the cookery course and for him to say that, is very big praise indeed!
You have done it again! Thank you so much for your help.

Lucy and I have been working together for years. Lucy not only has an amazing little black book but she is one of the most pleasant, dedicated and fun people to work with. Fast and efficient, she handles every little detail with so much care and great flexibility. She is very patient, diligent and has a great sense of humour. She has been a great partner over the years and I am so grateful for all her help and creativity.

Christmas Party
Lucy helped us in the organization of our end-of-year client party. She managed everything and saved us a lot of time on all the aspects of the event organization. In addition to answering all our questions, Lucy had plenty of exciting ideas when looking for decorations or animations. Furthermore, she organized and planned all the different teams’ work. Thanks to her, the event was memorable, and our clients loved it! We will work with Lucy again for the next event.
