Bespoke Wedding Catering
We may be a teeny weeny bit biased with this statement but we think…food plays a HUGE role in a wedding reception!
Our menu document is essentially a guide, offering examples and suggestions based on our love of fresh, seasonal, local produce and hearty, delicious meals. Amongst other things you will find Barbecue Feasts, Platters & Carving Joints, Street Food inspired snacks and 3 course plated meals. And although we adore a plated 3 course meal (don’t you just love that feeling of fullness and satisfaction?), the traditional wedding format seems to be pushed to one side more often than not. I have to say, it is an absolute joy to be part of a truly unique day - bringing together new ideas, themes and suppliers, mixing them together with a pinch of ❤ and floating on the positive vibes and feedback!
No two couples are the same, therefore no two weddings should be the same.
Our ideal would be to have our initial face to face meeting in a cosy village pub, chatting about you! 😍 Tell us where you met, how you (or your fiance) popped the question, your ideas and dreams for the big day, your favourite cuisine…we’re keen to get your ideas into the mix! You might like to recreate your first meal together, serve up a homage to a family favourite or combine two cultures to offer a truly unique day of celebrations for you and your loved ones. If you don’t have a firm idea of the food you’d like to serve, that ‘friendly pint in the pub’ will assist and inspire our event managers in pulling ideas together for a possible menu. Some of our previous clients will tell you of their wacky experience with our event managers - lets just say that sometimes they get over excited throwing around ideas when inspired!
We have perfected a Persian Feast; whisked a wedding party to South America (and back to reality with a rainy Yorkshire thud); designed a three course menu based on a love of brunch; injected a canape reception with a fun; served competitive Ireland v’s Yorkshire theme; bagged up dessert to toast your own S’mores around the fire; and next year we have our first Disney themed wedding!
Other than initial ideas and desires, there are 3 factors that may influence the first meal of married life - When? Where? How much?
When? What time of year are you celebrating? Will you want a hot Sticky Toffee Pudding with lashings of custard during a heatwave in July (ever so hopeful)?
Where? A grand stately home or a tipi in farmers field? An array of street food may not be so suited to a 17th century manor but would work a treat for a festival style marquee wedding!
How much? When dining out you may be drawn to the Scallops, Fillet of Beef and Cheese Board with a stunning bottle of Pinot Noir, but x 100 guests? Kerching!
All important factors to consider when designing your wedding breakfast but once you’ve decided, sit back and relax in our tasting room and let the chef team do the work - serving delicious and interesting dishes guaranteed to make your day what it should be; relaxed, happy and unforgettable.
We look forward to seeing you in the local shortly! 🍻
