Weddings

If you’ve booked a wedding venue that doesn’t provide the catering, or you’re hiring a marquee and need to provide all the food for your wedding yourselves, then we can feed your guests in the venue of your choice.

We have a very large selection of sample menus for all kinds of events and celebrations. It’s not possible to present all of the wonderful food we can offer, so we hope you’ll see something that encourages you to just get in touch and talk to us about what you need.
