56 Garden party. Enjoy incredible food in the great outdoors. “Rose Kentish Kitchen has lots of classic buffet and family-style summer menus to suit this type of wedding. Banquet-style is my favourite – especially if timings are tricky. We can serve everyone as they sit, so there’s no queuing for the buffet table, and it really gets guests talking as they share dishes.” – Rose Kentish. www.mes acatering.co.uk Mesa Catering offers a bespoke service to create the perfect catering for your wedding. The mobile pop- up nature makes it ideal for festival-style weddings, as well as more formal marquee celebrations. Couples can choose from Bristol-based Pieminister’s famous pies or a colourful Indian banquet courtesy of Thali Restaurant, with menus designed to suit a variety of tastes. www.pax tonandbrown.co.uk “Paxton & Brown’s most popular options for marquee weddings are our family-style sharing feasts,” says Henny Robinson. “Couples can choose two or three main dishes, salads and some dips, and everything is served with amazing flatbreads from Bristol-based Abunoor.
