Nancy & Tims' Ufton Court Wedding

Nancy & Tims' Ufton Court Wedding

Tuesday 15th January 2019

We loved catering for Nancy and Tim last October at Ufton Court one of our recommended venues and wanted to share the love with you.

The bride and groom both wanted the food to have a relaxed feel and so went for plenty of canapes served during the drinks reception followed by a two course BBQ served family style. This means platters and bowls of the BBQ food brought to all the dining tables for guests to help themselves.
For dessert the bride had the amazing idea of whole cheesecakes served to the middle of each table and then a nominated guest for each stood up the cut the 'cakes' at the same time as the bride and groom cut theirs at the top table.

The drinks;
We set up a gin bar as part of the drinks reception. the couple provided the gin and we did the rest including providing freshly cut limes, cucumber and lemon. We put out a champagne bucket of ice with tongs and the glasses and decorated with a little gin menu and some wooden crates.

In the evening;
The couple again had a brilliant idea of having a marshmallow toasting station!
This was set up outside on the courtyard terrace with some lighting and a member of our staff to help. We provided the heaters, marshmallows, 3x chocolate sauces, some sprinkles, skewers for toasting and napkins.
we also provided cheeseburgers and mini 6" pizzas walked round and offered to guests into the night.

Both Ufton court and Weddingshed have shared blogs for this beautiful wedding too so feel free to take a look....

What the couple had to say:
'Just wanted to say a MASSIVE Thank you to yourself and the team for last Sunday. We had the best day and the team were so patient with us and everyone else. People were raving about the food, especially the canapes and cheesecakes.
Thank you again for helping make our day so perfect!'
