Profile
History and Evolution
Planet Gold was originally
established by Will Lawton in 2002 and provided an event management
service for special events and occasions. As the company steadily
grew it built a strong network of hard-working crew and reliable
suppliers. Customers began to understand and gain faith in the fact
that Planet Gold could organise virtually any event, of any size and
nature.
One of our most respected and
dependable suppliers was a company called Temple Décor. Whenever we
were given the task of transforming a huge space into a vibrant
party atmosphere, this company was sub contracted as specialists in
transmogrification. In 2003, we were informed that Temple Décor were
selling off their stock and we were given the opportunity to
purchasing their brand-new Ice Palace décor. This opened a new
doorway for Planet Gold.
In 2007, Planet Gold split into
two companies, Planet Gold Events Ltd and Planet Gold Décor Ltd, to
allow each area of the business to grow. A share and directorship in
the décor business was offered to three key members of crew: Colin
de Silva, Harry Penfold and Philip Radford. They bring vast
experience and talent to the company. We also took on a large
workshop in addition to the existing office and storage space.
Our crew are personally involved
in many UK festivals and events and have helped us form a strong
relationship with Angus Watts, the creator and owner of the flags
seen at many major UK festivals, allowing us to offer stunning event
flags as a service. We also have exclusive access to Firewinder wind
powered lights for long term installations in exposed sites.
We have recently extended our
décor range to include smaller scale décor. This allows us to
transform small venues such as village halls and marquees in
addition to the large venues and structures we started out with.
I hope you enjoy this site and
get to experience an event under one of our environments soon.
