Reflecting on an Incredible Year ✨

We've had the privilege of working in so many unique and diverse locations this year – from tipis and elaborate marquees to cattle sheds, stately homes, village halls, country houses, and luxury holiday accommodations. We've also had the pleasure of creating unforgettable events across Devon, Dorset & Somerset in numerous stunning marquee settings. 🌿🏰

I am forever grateful to our amazing team for their continued hard work and commitment. With your support, effort, and dedication, we continue to make these incredible events possible. 🙏💪

It’s safe to say that the days of simply being "just the caterer" are long gone. Planning, coordinating, and bringing together exceptional weddings and events has become the norm – and we are rising to the occasion every single time! 🎉

We’ve been overwhelmed with positive feedback this year, receiving heartfelt cards, messages, and glowing reviews. 📩❤️

As always, none of this would be possible without each and every one of our staff, suppliers, family and friends. We are incredibly lucky to work alongside such a fantastic group of people who help us make it happen. You all truly make the difference. 👏

Here’s to another amazing year ahead, full of more great work and unforgettable moments! 🍾

With Lin over seeing all the running of the events and heading up the kitchen, along with her wingman Paul to ensure all the equipment and back of house has everything they need it is a perfect partnership.
