So Prince William and Kate Middleton are finally getting wed.
Part of me is so envious of them, I love weddings and wish
I could go back and do mine all over again. But then there is
another part of me that wouldn’t wish planning their wedding
on my worst enemy. Whilst this is most young girls’ dream, I
anticipate that there are going to be quite a few elements
which Kate has very little control over! And then there is the
stress! I’m quite happy to admit there was the odd occasion
during the planning of mine when I wanted to leave the country!
One issue I had was with my hubby-to-be. Being a chef he was
obviously quite determined that the food had to be perfect and
many long evenings were spent ripping apart wedding menus
from potential venues. Fortunately we eventually chose a venue
which allowed us to write the menu ourselves so we settled on
smoked salmon for starter, beef for main and raspberry and basil
crème brulee for pud - sounds unusual but is actually delicious!
We were so grateful for our hotel being so flexible as so many
weren’t. This is one of the most important days of your life, so,
if you’re anything like me, you want it to be perfect! So many
venues gave us a selection of menus for all different types of
budget, but weren’t prepared to budge on sometimes the
smallest things. Our hotel allowed us to completely write our
menu, bring in our own wine, bring in a hog roast for the evening
from the local butcher, and even helped repair our cake when it
threatened to collapse before we’d even sat down! Had I not
had so much flexibility and support, I’m sure it wouldn’t have
been the wonderful day it was!
Here at Knife & Fork we are equally as keen to be as flexible
and accommodating as possible when it comes to catering.
We supply menus but we also offer a bespoke service, so
customers can come in and request whatever their hearts
desire………within reason! We want our customers to go away
happy, and to tell all their friends what a good job we did, and
we believe this lies in flexibility, going above and beyond….oh
and of course providing delicious food!
