Last week friends of Cognito joined us for an evening of festive fun at London’s most sophisticated winter wonderland, Fortnum and Mason. The weather outside may not have been the white Christmas of songs, but inside the cosy gallery on Fortnum’s first floor, festive spirits were high.
Our 2015 Christmas party saw a selection of Christmas inspired canapés, lashings of mulled wine and excellent conversation against the sparkling backdrop of Fortnum’s first floor food gallery, where shoppers made the most of the late night opening hours.
To celebrate the end of a busy, exciting – and sometimes shocking – year, we chose to reflect on 2015’s highlights through the power of poetry, with our financial take on ‘Twas the night before Christmas. The poem proved popular, and our gingerbread characters became Instagram stars for the evening.
To end the night on a tasteful note, guests left with stylish bow-tie wearing gingerbread to enjoy in the office the next day… Jeremy and Donald were particular favourites!
Thank you to all of our guests for joining us, to catch up and see in the Christmas period in style.
We’ve chosen a few of our favourite photos to share below!
