Your wedding menu is one of the most delicious and enjoyable parts of wedding planning and we all know food is something everyone gets excited about! Choosing the perfect menu might feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be.

Let's Talk Budget (It’s not scary, promise!)

Firstly, decide how much of your wedding budget you're comfortable spending on food. Whether you're dreaming of an elegant plated dinner, a relaxed buffet or a cosy family-style feast. Knowing your budget upfront helps narrow down your options and keeps things stress-free.

What’s Your Style?

Think about the overall vibe you want for your big day. Do you picture your guests enjoying a more formal, plated three-course meal, casually self-serving at a buffet filled with tasty choices or sharing dishes like one big family around their tables? Your chosen catering style sets the scene and shapes the atmosphere of your wedding day.

Embrace Seasonal & Local Goodness

Using fresh, seasonal ingredients from local suppliers is not only a lovely way to celebrate the area where you’re getting married, but it can also be kind to your budget. Think vibrant, fresh flavours in spring and summer or hearty, warming dishes if you’re tying the knot in autumn or winter.

Add Your Personal Touch

This is your chance to make your wedding truly unique. Include dishes that mean something special to you both. Perhaps a nod to your heritage, a favourite restaurant dish or even a dessert inspired by your first date. Little touches like signature canapés or desserts inspired by your story make your menu memorable and personal.

Perfect Pairings

A fabulous wedding menu deserves drinks that complement it perfectly. Chat to your caterer about pairing wines, creating fun signature cocktails, or offering themed drinks that match your wedding style. The right beverage can really add to your guest’s dining experience!

Trust the Experts

Choosing a caterer who truly gets your vision makes everything easier (and more enjoyable!). Trust their expertise and guidance; they’re there to support you, answer questions and make sure everything is deliciously perfect.

We suggest deciding your catering style first, as it sets the tone and helps narrow down menu options, making the planning process smoother and more focused.
Include dishes meaningful to you both—perhaps family favourites, a special meal you've shared, or cuisine inspired by your travels. Small touches make the menu uniquely yours.
Typically, yes. Seasonal ingredients are abundant locally, which often makes them more affordable and fresher. It's a delicious way to manage your budget without sacrificing quality.
Drinks pairings aren't essential, but they significantly enhance the dining experience. Thoughtful pairings or signature cocktails can highlight flavours and add to the enjoyment of your meal.

Above all, choosing your wedding breakfast menu should be fun and exciting. Remember to keep things personal, reflect your tastes and most importantly, enjoy the process. Your wedding meal is a chance to celebrate with all your favourite people and great food is one of the best ways to create beautiful, lasting memories.
