Yasmin & Henry got married at Manor Barn in Bexhill, and shortly afterwards it was time for canapé and drinks in the grounds, while we got the room turned around and the tables set.
Being Easter time Yaz and Henry added miniature toasted and buttered hot cross buns to their selection of canapé – which also included Thai Crab & Chilli Toasts, BBQ Pulled Pork in mini home made Sesame Buns, Chicken Satay skewers and Walnut Crusted Goats Cheese bites – all yummy stuff.
After a few hours of milling around the guests took their seats in the wood panelled dining room and enjoyed a Hot Fork Buffet of Slow Roast Lamb Tagine, Chicken & Chorizo Paella and Mediterranean Vegetable Lasagne. These were served with Herby Cous Cous, Roasted Butternut Squash & Rocket Salad with Toasted Seeds, Greek Salad and Potato Wedges.
To finish off this filling feast Yaz and Henry chose Zesty Lemon Pots and Chocolate Brownies as their desserts.
Hot Fork Buffets are really popular now for weddings as you can offer guests a variety of dishes to try, and you don’t need to get everyone to pre-order, which saves you time and effort! It’ s also a really informal and sociable way to feed even the hungriest of guests. And coming up for seconds is always encouraged!
The kids were seated completely separately from the adults and had their very own menu of finger food favourites such as Sandwiches, Mini Muffin Pizzas, Sausage rolls, Honey glazed Chipolatas, Chicken Goujons, Hummus with Carrot and Cucumber sticks and Fruit and Marshmallow kebabs.
It can work really well to give kids their own space, and of course it gives the parents a break too.
Another great couple who were a pleasure to cater for. We’re so glad they enjoyed themselves, and more importantly for us, the food!! This is what they said about their big day: “Thanks for all your efforts on Saturday, the food was gorgeous and your staff were faultless. We had an amazing day and we were so glad we chose you to cater for it”
