Dinner Ladies Turn 10

Capturing The Dinner Ladies’ 10th Birthday Celebration

Last Thursday, I had the incredible opportunity to be the content creator for The Dinner Ladies' 10th Birthday Party at Battersea Arts Centre. I kicked off the evening by creating sneak peeks to build anticipation online, giving followers a glimpse of the excitement ahead.

Throughout the event, my primary focus was sharing live updates on Instagram to keep those who couldn’t attend in the loop. Between these real-time posts, I captured the finer details: candid moments, guests enjoying themselves, close-ups of canapés, and the vibrant atmosphere of the night.

The Dinner Ladies, founded a decade ago by two passionate women, are known for sharing their love of food through their unique events. Showcasing their celebration on social media not only boosted engagement but also highlighted how memorable and successful the evening was.

In the Instagram stories, I incorporated copy from the marketing team, tagging all partners and contributors who made the event special; including disco ball dancers, a saxophonist, and an impressive ice sculpture. (For related visuals, please scroll down)

The next day, I delivered a collection of photos and video clips, and the team was thrilled with the results. They even asked me to create a reel for their grid to keep the buzz going. The reel, set to Kool & the Gang's "Celebration," featured dynamic clips timed to the beat, perfectly reflecting the upbeat and joyful spirit of the night. It was a fantastic way to look back on the remarkable journey The Dinner Ladies have taken over the past 10 years.
