Your East Midlands Wedding - December 2022/January 2023 (Issue 53)

FOOD FOOD glorious The ultimate A to Z guide to wedding catering IS FOR AFTERNOON TEA Serving up an afternoon tea after the ceremony is the perfect addition to weddings. There’s something for everyone from sandwiches, scones, cakes and other sweet treats. IS FOR BAR Outdoor mobile bars are proving to be a popular addition to weddings, especially outdoor nuptials during the summer months. With many different styles available, you’re sure to find a bar that matches your wedding theme and serves your favourite drinks. IS FOR EXPERT ADVICE Planning wedding catering can be a daunting experience as many of us haven’t planned food for so many people before. That’s why it’s so important to hire an expert who can guide you through the experience, offer advice and spot any issues before they arise. On the day, you can relax knowing you’re in good hands. IS FOR DOUGHNUTS There’s a reason doughnut walls have been so popular over the last few years. The wall not only looks great, but will be a hit with adults and kids alike. IS FOR HOT CHOCOLATE Why not warm up your guests with a hot chocolate station for those colder months? Take it to the next level with marshmallows, chocolate flakes, whipped cream and different flavoured syrups. IS FOR FAVOURS With many options available for favours, we’ve found that some of the most popular options incorporate treats. Why not opt for personalised sweets, biscuits, chocolate or perhaps mini bottles of your favourite tipple. IS FOR GRAZING One trend that has really kicked off over the last year is a grazing platter with artisan cheeses, meat, nuts, fruit, crackers and bread. This option will be popular with loved ones and is a great way to encourage interaction between guests. IS FOR COCKTAILS Why not create a bespoke cocktail for your drinks reception for an extra personal touch? To add some entertainment for guests, why not host a cocktail masterclass? A B C D E G H F Finding the perfect catering company is essential to creating wow factor weddings. Food brings people together and it’s something your loved ones will remember long after the special day. That’s why we’ve created the ultimate guide from sweet treats, traditional delights and alternative options – thank us later! CATERING 43
