Your Devon and Cornwall Wedding - May/June 2020 (Issue 25)

 We catch up with some of the finest suppliers around both regions to reveal their top wedding tips FIG & SMOKE EVENT CATERING “We like to think of ourselves as being a little bit different to your average event caterer because we have no set menus and no lists of repetitive options to choose from, instead we like to get our inspiration for each couple’s wedding from them,” owner Ollie Vernon, who caters across Cornwall, Devon and Somerset, tells us. “We want to hear what they love to eat, their favourite food memory, and what they envisage for their wedding and exceed their expectations.” TOP TIP : “Choose a caterer who you feel that you can be honest and open with the entire way through the process. This will take a weight off your mind when it comes down to the planning and finalising your menus.” - Ollie Fig & Smoke Event Catering | 07837 417 510 | www.figandsmoke.co.uk Lets get social: www.instagram.com/fig_and_smoke EAT, DRINK AND BE MERRY! MILKSHED CATERING Milkshed Catering specialises in wedding catering across Devon, Dorset and Somerset, whether it be in an old country house, a marquee, or in the grounds of the couples’ home. “We use the best produce that the South West has to offer,” owners Katie and Mark Hollyer tell us, “and this, combined with our many years of high-end experience and a strong emphasis on excellent customer service, provides our clients with special and memorable weddings time after time.” Milkshed Catering offers a range of sample menus but is always happy to discuss something more bespoke. “Whether it’s a formal plated meal, or sharing ‘feast-style’ platters, we will work with couples to create a menu that their guests will be talking about for months to come.” TOP TIP : “Pick a menu that reflects you as a couple - a nod to something you ate on your first date or the day you got engaged, or something you’ve enjoyed on your holidays together, or a meal that you regularly enjoy cooking and eating together. Your guests will recognise this as the food you love and want to share with them!” - Katie and Mark Milkshed Catering | 07860 581 680 | www.milkshedcatering.com Let’s get social: www.instagram.com/milkshedcatering WEDDING CATERING 49
