Can you work at a private house?

Yes, that is where most of this work happens.

How late can you stay?

Until the last guest has left and the property is secure. We agree the finish time in advance and stay if it overruns.

Will you be in uniform?

Only if you want that. For most private parties, dress is smart and unremarkable.

Protection

Private Party Security

Private parties are simple to secure and easy to get wrong: it comes down to who gets in and what happens at the end.

What this is: Guest list control at the entrance solves most problems. The rest is a matter of keeping an eye on the drink, the pool, the driveway and the point at which people start leaving.
Who it's for: Private hosts running parties at homes, estates and hired venues.
Where we work: Cotswolds · Gloucestershire · London · UK · Worldwide

Access, alcohol and endings

Guest list control at the entrance solves most problems. The rest is a matter of keeping an eye on the drink, the pool, the driveway and the point at which people start leaving.

At a private residence

Where a party is held at a client's home, we also think about the parts of the property that should stay off-limits, vehicles on the drive and the household's privacy.

What we actually do on the night

The work is guest management first and everything else second.

Guest management and door checks against the list
Access control to the property, grounds and off-limits rooms
A discreet presence that reads as staff, not as a cordon
VIP protection where a named guest needs it
Incident management before it becomes an incident
Property and vehicle awareness through the evening
Liaison with organisers, caterers and venue staff

Gatecrashers and social media

The most common private party problem is a location shared somewhere it should not have been. If that has happened, tell us — it changes the door plan, the numbers and where people are positioned.
