Event Manager Christabell Pidduck says, “Work out your priority list at the outset of what speaks most to you as a couple - this day is for you and no one else! This may look like unlimited drinks, creating that ultimate wow factor with design and floristry as your guests enter, or keeping it more low-key with a BBQ and grazing table, street food or sharing platters. Having a clear picture and rough budget allocation when you first speak to suppliers will help them get on the same page so they can craft your perfect day.” ©Ana Luisa Tavares ©Ana Luisa Tavares ©Ana Luisa Tavares CATERING 69
