Corporate Event in East Meon, Petersfield GU32 1HF
Absolutely fantastic!
Laura and the Wild Poppy Bar team completely beat my expectations at our event. Communication before the event was efficient and timing - they really came into their own on the day though. The bar looked amazing and the team were so attentive to our guests. Nothing was too much trouble - they were absolutely amazing.
Many of my guests said that it was The Wild...

Summer '21
You've been a blast!
From the depths of lock down to a full calendar throughout July and August,
Wild Poppy has unleashed her spell and charmed 1000's.
We've seen so much of the beauty of England from Isle of Purbeck, Weymouth, Epsom, South Oxfordshire and idyllic villages of Braishfield and East Hagbourne, and served 1000's of delicious cocktails and Gin Magic.
Our customers are the best and below are some of the kind words
that have come our way.
29th August 2021
We had Wild Poppy bar at a belated 21st birthday celebration.
Laura met with us prior to the event and was tremendously helpful with her ideas regarding the varied drinks menu. She gave us excellent advice on how much to purchase and where to source the drinks.
Wild Poppy was swiftly set up in the garden a few hours prior to the event. It looked fabulous and became a real focal point for the evening.
Laura & Poppy were incredibly friendly and we've since received rave reviews from guests about how fantastic the bar was.
Thank you both so much for a wonderful night!
We can't recommend Wild Poppy highly enough.
Ellie & Ruth

Great review from Georgia
'I asked the Wild Poppy Bar to be at my 21st birthday party.
Laura talked with me about what I wanted so that it was bespoke to me,
this included 3 varieties of gin shimmer cocktails!
The horse box looked amazing on the night and along with Laura’s personality and hard work it quickly became the hub of the party.
Thank you so much for everything you did to make it the best night ever!!'
Great Gatsby themed 21st in the pouring rain. 36 hours of relentless rain didn't stop us. Strategically placed umbrellas and Wild Poppy was dry and

Mint & Elderflower Julep
Gin, Elderflower Cordial, Soda, Ice, Mint & Cucumber
French 75
Gin, Lemon Juice, Sugar Syrup, Splash of Lemonade & Garnished with a lemon.

What an eventful start with our first wedding. Wild Poppy was lucky with the weather and the Steam Punk theme made for some fabulous outfits. Wild Poppy fitted right in. 150 glasses of champagne poured and several people converted to Gin. Wicked Wolf was a hit with many of the guests coming from the West Country
20th July 2019
What a great day. Weather was perfect for Gin drinking and watching the cricket.
80+ deserving volunteers paid us a visit to sample our finest gins. Tanquerey Seville Orange went down really well; refreshingly zesty and perfect for the occasion. Wild Poppy was pleased to welcome some Gin Virgins and even happier to convert them.
Wild Poppy's mission continues :)
19th July 2019
Looking forward to our next adventure at Trojans Club to serve some gorgeous gin concoctions to some deserving volunteers whilst appreciating some cricket. Fingers crossed for the weather

Now for a Wild Poppy's first adventure. Where better than an Arabian Stallion Stud Farm, Georgian Arabians. Invited down to help with a charity fundraiser for Lasting Life, The Simon MacCorkindale Legacy, we pitched up to supply the refreshments for the 125 invited guests. The beautiful horses seemed Wild to see us although our flag was a casualty as it spooked the horses - first lesson learnt :)
16th June 2019
The morning after the night before ..... How luck was Wild Poppy. The weather held up and our guests enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and our delicious gins. A few hours passed and Wild poppy's launch was deemed a HIT

23rd May 2019 -
Count down begins - 23 days til our first event 8 days til our trial afternoon ... Bartops have arrived back and our amazing carpenter has breathed life back in to some well trodden scaffold boards. First wax and the boards are singing. Love it love it love it ....
16th May -
more painting and having fun with the painting our splashback. Best to not stand too close to us today as we have the midas touch! In the meantime we have given her some sparkle with some brilliant copper paint and touched up her frame with hammerite black paint which has a gorgeous copper fleck in it. Who'd have thought paint would be sexy!!
Returned with a reclaimed wood side bar built we turned our attention to the rest of the inside. The rubber matting was unbelievably heavy so that was taken out and revealing her stunning wooden floor in great condition. Love it love it love it .... So lucky that Wild Poppy Floor is in top condition and all she needs is a light sand a sealing
May 19 -
Well the weather hasn't been great and its been too cold - polar opposite to last year! We have sent off the reclaimed scaffold board to be transformed in to a bespoke bar top. Due to be delivered back to Wild Poppy on the 23rd - can't wait.
Apr '19 -
the build begins. A sunny afternoon in Fair Oak and we strip Wild Poppy, give her a clean and a touch up and plan our brilliant space
Mar ' 19 -
Wild Poppy mark I failed to make it home so sadly we had give her a new home, let her put her wheels up and her tail down in a field in Wiltshire.
Our search began again. Didn't take us long to find Wild Poppy Mark II.We are converting Wild Poppy from a shabby, three legged horse trailer in to a bespoke, pop-up bar, serving the fun fuel of your choice, wherever you are.
Jan '19
Nothing beats the January blues quite like a spontaneous horse box purchase! The Wild Poppy adventure began on January 23rd 2019, with a 12 hour round trip to collect our new baby. One missing wheel later and the road to discovering her true purpose is well under way.
Just keeps on rolling, rolling, rolling .......
