Just a note to say thanks for all your help with the Yamaha event last week. It went very well, and the client was very happy. I know she was a bit worried just because of experiences at other venues around the world where things have not gone according to plan. So for us to arrive and see it all set and ready to roll, put her mind at rest.

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.

Thank you to Mike, Ross and Sandy from Maximillion for the team building in the afternoon, murder mystery that evening, Belbin Team Roles next morning, a fantastic team building session in the afternoon and, finally, a great barbecue that evening provided by Norton House. Although some of us were a bit slow of the mark the second day, the same positive attitude and enthusiasm from day one prevailed and I think we all got something out of it. It was clear to me that everyone was communicating and working together better by the end of the afternoon.

Working with Maxmillion events for the Traitor’s themed evening at Prestonfield House was a great experience. Jenny and her team were a delight to work with, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to plan immersive events.
The PC Agency
Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

The Lego Serious play event was a great hit with all of our Scotframe participants. Such a great way to get everyone involved and really work as a team.

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. This is the second time using Maximillion and on both occasions they have made the event! So much fun and so engaging. The feedback from all who attended was this was a brilliant session. Huge thanks to all involved.
Abertay Housing Association
Everyone had a really good time and loved all the different levels and variety that Level-Up brought. Maximillion always provide an excellent event and guide you through the organising process with clarity, confidence and advice.
Davidson Chalmers Stewart
We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for the fantastic murder mystery and DJ services the Maximillion team provided at our recent Renewables UK Seminar at Cameron House Hotel. It was an evening filled with excitement and entertainment, and Maximillion played a pivotal role in making it a memorable experience for all of us.
TotalEnergies
As always, seamless operations of the event. Very flexible working with you guys. Guests were delighted. Everything went super well. Well done Mike and Rhys!

What is the etiquette for award ceremonies?
Every award ceremony has a few etiquette rules.
From the basics, like arriving on time and dressing appropriately, to more subtle things, like being mindful of others and showing appreciation. And of course, if you’re an award winner, be gracious! Make sure to thank those who contributed to your success.
As the organiser, make things like start time and dress code clear in the invites so your guests can follow the general etiquette rules.
What to wear to awards ceremonies?
The dress code for an awards ceremony typically ranges from formal to semi-formal. Men are normally expected to wear suits where as women tend to opt for evening gowns, cocktail dresses, or elegant suits. If you’re planning a unique theme for your awards ceremony, make sure to state the dress code on the invitation.

- Determine the purpose: Decide what you want to celebrate.
- Set a budget: Allocate funds for venue, food, entertainment, and awards.
- Choose a date and time: Consider guest availability and peak seasons.
