Bespoke Plated Meals

Many people still like to opt for a traditional meal served at the table by waiting staff. We have listed a large choice of dishes, from which you can create your own bespoke menu. You can choose either 2 courses (starter and main course, or main course and dessert) or 3 courses, and up to 3 choices per course. We also have set menus available.


To ensure that all your wedding guests can find something to their taste, we are happy to offer what we call a “choice menu”, whereby you choose three different dishes to be available for each course. Guests then pre-select their dishes from your options at least a month before the event date (it is recommended that one of your starter and main course options is vegetarian). We also recommend that at this stage, you also ask your guests if they have any allergies or dietary requirements. Once guests have selected all their options you then provide us with a list of names, table numbers and menu choices one month before the date of your wedding. Please also list guest choices on their name cards for the table so we can serve everyone correctly and efficiently on the day. We can cater for vegan diets and other dietary requirements (gluten-free, allergies etc.) provided we have been notified in good time.
