Whether it’s enlisting the help of loved ones, hiring street food vendors, or carefully curating their own menus, couples are finding creative ways to make the experience feel more personal without overspending. While this approach offers greater freedom, it also brings practical considerations, especially when it comes to safely storing and serving food and drink for a large number of guests. Experts at Buckinghamshire-based Cool Running Trailers, the refrigerated trailer rental experts, suggest these small tweaks to make self-catering easier for couples: *Buy in bulk where you can - wholesale retailers or cash-and-carry shops can work out much cheaper for things like drinks, snacks and ingredients. *Limit the menu options - it might feel generous to offer plenty of choice, but keeping it focused actually saves money and reduces waste. *Avoid over-ordering - it’s easy to purchase too much ‘just incase’ but having a headcount and sticking to it helps avoid unnecessary spending. *Hire a refrigerated trailer - if you’re wanting to provide your own food, getting it to the wedding venue can be an added stress. Proper storage means food lasts longer and doesn’t spoil, which helps avoid throwing money away on wasted ingredients or drinks. *Think about timing – a later ceremony or shorter reception can reduce how much food you need to provide overall. coolrunningtrailers.co.uk/trailer-hire/ refrigerated-trailer-hire Read more on yourberksbucksoxon.wedding Burrow Farm Estate offers exclusive country celebrations Burrow Farm Estate in Buckinghamshire has expanded its wedding offering by launching individual property bookings for the first time, alongside exclusive-use hire.
