We love this style of menu as sharing courses work amazingly well. Guests can have as much or a little as they like and the dishes in the middle of the tables are topped up throughout the meal, so everyone is definitely well fed.
Once dessert was cleared our team poured champagne ready for the speeches
Tea, coffee & homemade fudge was ready in the house for when guests left the tipis following the speeches. When guests made their way to the house for coffee some of our team got the tipis ready for the evening as we cleared tables away ready for the bar, dancing and partying to begin.
After keeping the dancefloor full all night, it was time for some late-night snacks to make sure everyone could keep going until midnight. This is when we served newspaper cones of fish and chips.
We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our 2020 season and we just want to thank all of the amazing suppliers who helped make the day incredible.
Michelle & Roger, we wish you all the best for the future and we loved working with you to create your dream day!
