Private Celebrations in Ashford, Kent

Styled Private Parties at The Celebration Edit

Some celebrations deserve a space that feels more personal than a restaurant table, but more beautiful than a plain room you have to decorate yourself.

The Celebration Edit offers a styled private party room in Ashford, Kent, designed for smaller gatherings, meaningful celebrations and beautifully relaxed events. Based at Evegate Artisan Business Park, our upstairs celebration room can be styled for birthdays, brunches, bridal showers, engagement celebrations, naming day gatherings, family moments and intimate social events.

This is not large hall hire or a loud party venue. It is a warm, flexible celebration space with soft styling, thoughtful details and room to gather, talk, laugh, take photos and enjoy the occasion properly.

Whether you are planning a stylish birthday brunch, a relaxed bridal shower, a small engagement celebration or a private gathering with food, drinks and friends, The Celebration Edit gives you a space that feels considered without feeling overdone.

A Private Party Room in Ashford with Styling Included

Finding the right private party venue in Ashford can be difficult when you want something smaller, prettier and more personal than a typical function room.

The Celebration Edit is designed for intimate celebrations where the atmosphere matters. The room can be styled around your occasion, guest number and preferred look, with options for table styling, soft decor, florals, welcome signs, cake table styling, mocktails, grazing, cupcakes, photo corners, guest books, memory jars and other thoughtful touches.

You do not need to start with a blank space or bring every detail yourself. We prepare the room before your guests arrive and clear down afterwards, so the celebration feels easy, polished and ready to enjoy.

The result is a private party that feels beautiful, relaxed and personal.

Perfect for Smaller Celebrations

The Celebration Edit is ideal for private events where you want the room to feel warm and styled, but not overwhelming.

Our space can work beautifully for:

  • Birthday brunches
  • Milestone birthdays
  • Bridal showers
  • Engagement celebrations
  • Naming day gatherings
  • Friendship brunches
  • Family celebrations
  • Afternoon tea-style gatherings
  • Small social events
  • Celebration drinks and nibbles
  • Intimate private parties
  • Custom styled gatherings

If your event does not fit neatly into one category, that is completely fine. Tell us what you are planning and we can let you know whether the room would be a good fit.

Birthday Brunches

A birthday brunch at The Celebration Edit is perfect if you want a celebration that feels stylish, relaxed and easy to enjoy.

The room can be styled with soft table details, balloons, flowers, a cake table, mocktails, grazing, cupcakes, sweet treats and a photo area depending on your chosen package and add-ons.

This works especially well for milestone birthdays, friendship brunches, family birthdays and smaller celebrations where guests want to sit, chat, eat, drink, take photos and enjoy a pretty setting without the pressure of a large party.

Styling can be soft and neutral, blush and champagne, sage and cream, floral, minimal, golden, or completely custom.

Bridal Showers

The Celebration Edit is a lovely setting for bridal showers and pre-wedding gatherings.

A bridal shower can be styled in a soft, elegant and feminine way using florals, neutral tones, blush details, champagne touches, pretty table styling, welcome signage and a photo corner.

The room is ideal for brides who want something more personal than a restaurant booking, but less formal than a full venue hire. It gives friends and family a beautiful space to gather, celebrate, share food and drinks, play light games if wanted, and enjoy the build-up to the wedding.

Optional details can include mocktails, grazing, cupcakes, cake table styling, a guest book station, memory jar, photo corner or personalised signs.

Naming Day and family gatherings

The Celebration Edit can also be used for naming day gatherings and small family celebrations.

These events can be styled softly and simply, with room for family to gather, take photos, share food and mark the occasion in a way that feels warm and personal.

Styling can be kept neutral, floral, sage, cream, soft gold or fully custom depending on the feel you want for the day.

Please note that the room is located upstairs and accessed via an outdoor spiral staircase, so it is not suitable for wheelchair access or pram access. Babies do not count as guests, but children do.

Engagement Celebrations

For couples wanting a smaller and more intimate engagement celebration, The Celebration Edit can be styled with romantic but understated details.

Think warm neutral styling, soft florals, LED candlelight, champagne tones, a styled drinks area, grazing, cake, photo-friendly corners and personal details that mark the moment without turning the event into something too formal.

It is a beautiful choice for relaxed engagement drinks, family gatherings or a small celebration with close friends.

Styled Room Packages

For couples wanting a smaller and more intimate engagement celebration, The Celebration Edit can be styled with romantic but understated details.

Think soft florals, warm candle-style LED lighting, champagne tones, neutral decor, a photo corner, a cake table, mocktails, grazing and pretty table styling.

The room works well for relaxed engagement gatherings where the focus is on celebrating with close family and friends rather than hosting a large formal event.

Your private celebration can be styled using one of our existing themes or a more custom direction.

Some options include:
