At Park Lane Events, we’re a team founded on similar values who are driven by passion, creativity and a deep-seated belief in making every moment count.
Let’s re-wind to 2015 and back to where it all began, the full story is in my blog .
Lyndsey’s decision to leave a stable job, marked the beginning of a new, liberating chapter; it was a leap into the unknown, but she was excited and determined to make it a success. Park Lane Events was created – not just as a business, but as a pursuit of her own personal passions.
From working in the hospitality industry for nearly thirty years, Lyndsey has built up a solid network of clients and contacts and it was this that was used to kick-start the business. The first project was through an introduction at a corporate event where she was given the opportunity to consult and showcase 4 luxury car showrooms in London – on Park Lane. The new company name was suggested the same evening.
Lyndsey’s approach has always been about simplicity and efficiency, taking the time out of finding the right venue for an event, utilising her personal, hands-on experience working in hotels and venues on conferences, events, Lyndsey understand how crucial working within a budget, to a deadline, with various shareholders with different ideas is.
Fast forward to today, Park Lane Events has blossomed beyond a solo venture. With a dedicated team at the helm, each member brings their unique expertise and enthusiasm. Together, we’re here to offer seamless support in finding your perfect luxury venue for any event.
