Not every wedding needs a formal sit-down meal. If you are planning a more relaxed reception, drinks gathering or celebration, we can provide fresh wedding catering that fits naturally around the day.

Canapés are at the heart of what we offer for weddings. They work well with drinks, give guests something easy to enjoy while they mingle, and can be combined with other informal food if you want something more substantial later on.

Canapés for your wedding

Our canapé menu includes meat, fish, vegetarian, vegan and sweet choices. Depending on the selection, that could mean small roast beef Yorkshires with horseradish, smoked salmon and cream cheese blinis, chicken tikka and mango, vegetarian crostini or something sweet to finish.

We prefer to talk through the menu with you rather than turn it into a fixed package. The right mix depends on the timing of the day, the number of guests and whether the canapés are a light accompaniment to drinks or a more substantial part of the food.

More than canapés

If canapés are only part of your plans, we can also provide food from our buffet menu. Afternoon tea and grazing-style catering can be discussed too.

We do not provide formal plated sit-down wedding meals. Our strength is in fresh, informal food that can be served and enjoyed without making the day feel over-structured.

If you need vegan choices as part of the menu, our vegan catering page gives more detail about the sort of food we can prepare.

Delivery, set-up and service

The level of service can be as simple or involved as you need. We can deliver the food and leave you to serve it, set everything out at the venue, or provide staff to serve guests and clear away afterwards.

Staffing is chargeable and subject to availability, so it is helpful to tell us how you imagine the food fitting into the day when you first enquire.

Wedding catering across the local area

We cater for weddings across the Wyre Forest and surrounding areas, including Bewdley, Kidderminster and Stourport-on-Severn.

For weddings further into North Worcestershire or South Shropshire, please speak to us. Depending on the venue, timing and scale of the event, we may still be able to help.

If you are also arranging a cake or something sweet for the day, take a look at our cakes.

Dietary requirements and allergens

We can include vegetarian and vegan choices and discuss other dietary requirements as part of the menu planning.

Our kitchen is small and handles flour and other allergens throughout the day, so cross-contamination cannot be completely ruled out. Please make us aware of any allergies or intolerances when you enquire and read our allergen information before ordering.
