WEDDINGS & EVENTS
There is so much to think about when planning your wedding day, and trying to get the perfect balance between your (happy couple’s) favourite meal, pleasing the majority of guests and meeting budgets is never easy!
I am however, more than happy to compile as many different quotes as you would like – I think it always helps to see how different menu items can alter the over costs.
Personally I find it advantageous to have a consultation with you, whether it be via a video or telephone call or a face to face meeting, this gives me the opportunity to ‘get a feel’ for how you wish your day to run. As although they often following a similar format, no two weddings are ever the same!
I cater for most dietary requirement, be it gluten, dairy, or egg free, vegetarians, vegans or pescatarians, and where possible, I replicate the menu choice so that your guests with dietary requirements can enjoy a similar meal to everyone else.

CHEESE BOARD
A cheese board is always a welcomed addition to the end of every meal. I can make up a Yorkshire, an English or an International Cheeseboard. I can then serve individual cheese plates to each guest, place a cheeseboard on each table or set up a grazing Cheese station for guests to help themselves to as and when they like – the choice is entirely yours!
