Connection Through Curated Experience

Welcome to MAKAI, a London based company that specialises in creating connection, whether on a personal or professional level. 

 

We work with private individuals, families, businesses and celebrities to create experiences and opportunities to connect to those that matter to you, whether that's a family member or group, clients or even a target audience.

​​

On a personal level, this might mean celebration meals, family or social events, days away (or nights in!) or the trip of a lifetime to reconnect with loved ones, and yourself...

On a professional level, this might be wow-ing clients with a carefully designed private dining experience, bonding with colleagues on away days or socials, or connecting to your audience with launch parties, brand activations or carefully crafted networking events. We can also go one step further with introduction services and guestlist planning.

We understand that our clients are unique and require bespoke services to match. We work efficiently and discreetly, so you can concentrate on more important things.

Get in touch today and let us help you find excellence...

Founder

toward or by the sea; seaward.

MAKAI is about endless possibilities, like the horizon on the sea - endless and without limitation. Ultimately, it's about making dreams and visions come true...

MAKAI was founded in 2023 by Alex Popoff after an extensive career working with luxury brands, celebrities and private individuals, working together to achieve excellence.

Although with a strong focus on private dining, events and curation of guest lists, it's impossible to compartmentalise what MAKAI is and does. Like the sea, it changes shape, expands and morphs, but one thing remains....

MAKAI is about excellence.

Alex has been my go-to Event planner for many years now. I knew from our initial conversations everything logistically will be locked down; on budget, on brief, on time with everything in hand

 

What sets Alex apart though is the crucial part of Event planning - the magic! Alex listens with great care and precise detail to put in place those other elements that create the intangible moments which take a good event into being a great memorable event. Alex brings and adds the magic to everything she does, her curation and creative thought process to get the right balance and mix whether its been an intimate gathering for 10 or an event for hundreds, everyone always feels they have been to something very special, something a bit different, something with heart and wonderfully it feels personal to them.

  

Which is why hiring Alex is such a joy -  being truly passionate about what she does shows up on every detail and in every moment. It is worth mentioning Alex is also very kind, brilliant fun and funny -  an all round fantastic person to have on your side.

Fees

Our fees are as bespoke as our services

No two clients are the same, so no two fees should be either. We pride ourselves on getting the job done quickly, seamlessly and cost efficiently, so depending on the needs of the client, we have 3 ways of working...

  • Hourly rate for individual needs

  • Monthly retainer based on a set number of hours, for clients with regular requirements

  • Project by project basis - we understand things often need to be kept in budget, so we're happy to discuss this with you
