Love at first bite Planning your big day is fun and exciting, and that’s exactly what your catering and beverage choices should be too Hello, my name’s Danielle and I’m addicted to food, the good, the bad, and just the downright dirty.

This makes attending a wedding even more exciting for me, because one of the great things about weddings is the food...of course! “One my fav wedding breakfasts was at a dear friend’s wedding where she served up a bougie barbecue; grilled meats and halloumi kebabs were delivered to tables which were bursting with baby potatoes, salad, buns, and picky bits – divine! “For my own wedding, my husband and I made our decision based on our favourite food, a roast dinner with all the trimmings for main and cheesecake for dessert – not forgetting canapés of honey and mustard sausages, mini toad in the hole and arancini balls! “Over the next couple of pages, we’re going to inspire you for your own big day with 2025 catering trends, show you some local companies offering everything from grazing platters and brownies to prosecco and drinks vans.
