Six By Nico
Bringing Wonderland to Oxford
a sell-out launch that turned diners into storytellers

BRief Approach
Six by Nico asked us to manage the end-to-end launch of their new Mad Hatter’s Party menu. The brief was to fill the restaurant with a dynamic mix of guests, create a buzz on social media, and position the Oxford venue as a must-visit dining destination, ultimately driving awareness and sales.
Our approach included curating a carefully balanced guest list of influencers, local businesses, creatives, and media representatives, managing all invitations and guest communications, and coordinating with Six by Nico HQ and their central agencies. We also oversaw event logistics on the day, arriving early to align with the team, greet guests, and ensure everything ran seamlessly. A professional photographer was secured to capture the experience and deliver high-quality content for post-event coverage.

I just wanted to say what a wonderful evening last night. The food was delicious and so creative with the links to Alice in Wonderland. Thanks to everyone for a fantastic event and for inviting us. We guides are going to post some photos and inks to the restaurant website on the Guild’s chat and we will be recommending it to guests who come for tours. Thanks again.
