IS FOR ICE CREAM Van, bike or trike: ice cream can be served at your wedding in a variety of quirky ways and will be most welcome on a hot day. IS FOR KNOWLEDGE When choosing the best suppliers for your special day, it’s essential to conduct thorough research after you’ve established your budget. Look for local businesses and check out their websites and social media profiles, where you can find reviews from other couples who have recently tied the knot. IS FOR JARS OF SWEETS Make your wedding even more enjoyable with a delightful sweet cart! It’s a fantastic treat for those who love dessert and will keep the snacks flowing during the reception. This station is especially great if you have kids attending the celebration! IS FOR MEMORABLE Frenchman in the Kitchen provides private chef services and tailored luxury dining experiences for dinner parties and intimate gatherings throughout Dorset and Hampshire, perfect for those looking to wow guests with delicious gourmet cuisine. The chef and founder, Michelin-trained Loic Gratadoux, has observed an increasing interest in his private chef offerings, particularly among couples and families wanting to alleviate the stress in the leadup to weddings. With a variety of menus available or the possibility of going bespoke, Loic can adjust to nearly any environment, provided there’s a kitchen available! Discover the company: http://frenchmaninthekitchen.co.uk IS FOR ORIGIN Many venues cultivate their own herbs and vegetables, and numerous caterers prioritise local farmers by incorporating their fresh produce. Choosing locally sourced food for your wedding enhances the atmosphere, supports the community, guarantees quality, and promotes sustainability by minimising transportation distances. IS FOR PIZZA Everyone will enjoy seeing their meals being made right in front of them. A pizza truck is an excellent choice for evening gatherings, ensuring that guests stay satisfied. And really, who can resist pizza? IS FOR QUICHE Not everyone has the same taste in food, so if you’re concerned that your guests might not enjoy the menu, consider going for a contemporary buffet. This way, everyone can choose their favourite dishes! Imagine having street food stations, tapas, sausage sandwiches, and mini sliders available for everyone to enjoy. IS FOR LATE The wedding breakfast might be served later in the day and to keep your guests energised, it’s a great idea to have a variety of tasty canapés available during the drinks reception. A mix of five to six options works well, and we think mini fish ‘n’ chip cones or cosy bite-sized pies would be perfect for a winter celebration. J K L M O P NIS FOR NO WASTAGE Food waste at weddings is a significant concern. Make sure to find out if your venue participates in programs like Too Good To Go (https://toogoodtogo.org), which links app users with businesses that have extra food, ensuring it gets enjoyed instead of thrown away. https://unsplash.com/@thedakotacorbin I https://unsplash.com/@fotovanfoto https://unsplash.com/ @filipp_roman_photography Q 56
