DIRTY DOGS đ
Late evening snacks are the perfect way to keep the party goers partying and our hot dog package has been a firm favourite this summer!
The organic frankfurters in a soft pretzel roll makes the perfect grab and go evening snack.
The question is would you go a simple classic hot dog or are you going all out with a loaded chilli dog?

Behind the scenes, we are continuously working hard ensuring we are using creative ways to provide luxury catering with limited environment impact!
We have noticed this year more than ever, our couples are also consciously planning a wedding that is environmentally friendly. With this in mind, we decided to further our sustainable journey by joining Sustainable Wedding Alliance
We are excited to be part of a community of like minded wedding businesses and to continue to do our bit. We have already implemented lots of changes since we opened 6 years ago and have so many new ideas on the way.
We couldnât be more excited for what this means for the future of Fig and Smoke!
If you are interested in knowing more drop us a DM, we will happily discuss our current eco conscious practices, growing Devon suppliers list as well as our future hopes and dreams đ
We have mentioned it a few times already but thought it deserved a place on the grid!
Fig and Smoke now own âBenedictâs Barâ (already nicknamed Benny by the team), isnât she a beauty!?!
We have already been lucky enough to take the horsebox and pop up wooden bar (scroll to view) on some outings and are excited for the future bookings we have in the pipeline.
Now advertised on our website!
A stunning wedding in the heart of Chagford đ©· Tim and Rach are the perfect couple and yesterday truly reflected their humour and oozed so much personality.
Rolling into the early hours with immense performances after canapés and a sharing feast was the perfect way for this pair to celebrate!
Huge congrats R&T đ«¶đ»
So much hard work goes on behind the scenes to make sure every event runs seamlessly.
Huge love for the staff who join us year after year, event after event giving it their absolute best!
So many familiar faces retuning this summer as well as some new chicks and dudes joining the fun and we are so excited about it!

We have the last of the wedding tasters for summer 2024 this week. Winter and spring months have been so much fun with lots of menu sampling and exciting chats about all things wedding related.
As we work with each couple to build a menu thatâs personal to them using inspo from the foods they enjoy and the story they want to tell, itâs really important to us they leave the tasters 100% happy with a menu that they are excited to showcase to their guests.
With lots of fun, colourful menus finalised using Devonâs finest produce, we are very much looking forward to wedding season and showing you the food we will be putting on plates.

Time to feast!

Weâre excited and ready for this weekendâs birthday celebration for a incredible lady that we adore highly đ
It has been straight back to it in 6th gear for us at Fig and Smoke, weâve had some top class 1-2-1 tasting sessions with many more to come this month as well as some exciting events!
2024⊠we are ready!

From L&Js special day which had the best autumnal vibes!
The fondest memories are often those made gathered around a table âš
Carol wanted to celebrate her special birthday with her nearest and dearest without the stress of the cooking so we were more than happy to step in for the evening.
Read on to see the lovely review Carol has since left for us:
âOllie prepared a stunning three courses for my 60th birthday celebration and everyone thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful.
From my first communications with Jordan who has been so helpful and patient with creating the perfect menu, to the evening itself, cooked and beautifully plated by Ollie and served by lovely Frankie, the experience could not have been better.
I wanted photograghic memory of each course, but in our excitement to tuck in, the first course was gone before we remembered!
Thank you so much for making my evening so special!â
Charcuterie Boards - any day, any time, any occasion đșđ»
All the best my lovelies! After an awesome summer, we have said goodbye (for now) to a few who have gone to Uni - Becky, Lara, Jaz, Amanda, Ella, Tilly and Carina I know you guys will smash it but good luck and have so much fun but also thank you for being amazing this season. See you Summer 2024 for more Fig and Smoke adventures.
With the rest of our awesome team sticking about, we are sooo ready for our autumn and winter events! Bring it on!!!
One topic of conversation in the consultation process is âwhatâs your favourite dessert?â And most of the time couples will come out with very different answers so creating boards full of mini versions of your favourite puds is a great way to settle on a dessert for all!
Here is last weekends sharing board for Jess and Nick
-Mini Tiramisu
-Baked Cheesecake and Berries
-Chocolate Brownie, Salted Caramel
Nothing pairs better than a bit of sunshine and a marquee wedding! We are so glad this glorious weather is hanging around for J & Nâs big day tomorrow. âïž

Celebrating with Emily and Rick on Saturday was the perfect way to spend our bank holiday weekend!
Seeing their family and friends tuck into sharing boards of the couples chosen menu, giving food appreciation that it deserves brings us so much joy!
This pair have been a absolute pleasure to work with and I am going to miss our email chats! Big love and congrats to you both â€ïž
What a GORGEOUS wedding! So wonderful to see the gorgeous Fliss marry her wonderful man Liam a couple of weeks ago! The rain held off for their ceremony in the magic circle, beautiful Labradorâs were everywhere (anyone who knows me, knows how much I love my 2 labs) and the food was awesome!
Thank you for having us on your special day. We wish you all the happiness in your future.

Another summer must have thatâs vibrant and full of flavour. Gin cured salmon on burnt cucumber goes hand in hand with a refreshing glass of bubbly!
UmmmâŠ.when did we fast forward to autumn? âïž
On this grizzly day, I thought Iâd share a picture of a summery favourite to keep us in the summer mood!
Berry Eton Mess is a classic that never seems to go out of fashion. Hands up if you are a Eton Mess fan too! đđ»ââïž
Katjaâs Super-Slaw
One of the sides served for Saturdayâs menu for Eva and Vin! The brideâs sister is a development chef for so when they asked if would be able to design one of their side salads for the menu it was a no brainer!
It was soooo tasty and complimented the rest of the menu well (swipe to see full menu)
DRINKS
A question we often get asked from those planning a DIY wedding is âcan you help with the drinks service?â
The simple answer is YES!
Drinks receptions are a pivotal part in setting the tone for the rest of the day so leave it to us to make sure everyone has a drink in hand while they mingle!
If youâd like some assistance with welcome drinks or pouring of toast drinks then please mention it to us and we are more than happy to make this happen.
I donât think the caption box is big enough to write everything weâd love to say about last weekends wedding
Molly and Maurice were absolute beauts to work with towards their special day and we are so grateful their chose Fig and Smoke!

or
Pea and Broad Bean, Rosary Goats Cheese Gnocchi
Dessert

COLD STARTERS
As we come into the warmer months, we tend to find most menus are based upon cold starters, and we couldnât agree more with you guys, this makes a perfect way to start a meal on a warm summers day!
I canât believe this one hasnât graced our grid before as itâs a pretty one but here is a image from an event at the tail end of summer in September:
Chicken and Pistachio Terrine, Celeriac and Pickled Girolles
We have quietly been working on something very exciting!!
We are thrilled to have joined forces with the lovely team at as their one and only caterer going forward!
Nestled on the banks of the River Exe, Bickleigh Castle makes the perfect setting to celebrate with your loved ones. From the gorgeous historic great hall, to the beautiful gardens - there is so much to love.
Watch this space to see the delicious menus we bring to the table at Castle đ°
We hope you are all having a cracking bank holiday Sunday đ„
Our Rolled Lamb belly is a tasty, flavoursome alternative to the traditional roast. Paired with hasselback potatoes, asparagus and pickled red onion it ticks all the boxes for us!
Bringing a bit of colour to the grid!
Pea and Mint crostiniâs with Smoked Cheddar!
The canapĂ© suggestion that gets passed by on the first glance of the sample list but once tried is often on a couples list of must haves as itâs fresh, vibrant and super tasty on a hot sunny day!
Donât knock it until you try it!
Save me a slice! đ

Finally a glimpse of the British summer sunshine âïž
It might not be quite summer yet but at Fig and Smoke HQ, we are well underway with finalising the summer menus for the exciting events in the coming months and this sunshine coming through the office window is really getting us in the mood!
Hereâs a photo from the archive that screams perfect for a hot summers day served chilled by our professional, yet relaxed waiting staff!
Cod Ceviche, Watermelon and Cucumber Salsa, Pickled Strawberries
Brightening up this rainy evening with a picture of Zoe and Liamâs desserts from their wedding day back in September along with their kind words theyâve shared with us today!
Thank you guys â€ïž
âWe hired Fig snd Smoke for our wedding in Devon and we canât rate them highly enough. They were generous with their time and we had countless meetings to curate the perfect food for our day. They are a fantastic team/couple.
They had a substantial back catalogue for inspiration. Once we nailed down a rough idea they invited us for a free tasting event to work out if that was what we wanted and if anything needed altering. We were very happy with what they made us! On the wedding day everything ran smoothly out of the kitchen and theyâre waiting staff were all very friendly and attentive. And of course the food was fantastic and all the guests had delicious food with no one going hungry.
They also catered for a gathering of 30 people the night before the wedding which was also really nice - they are just so happy to do whatever they can for you. We originally booked a pizza van with another company for our evening food but they had to cancel last minute - luckily Fig & Smoke stepped up and covered our evening food.
In summary, they provide a friendly bespoke service and most importantly the food is super delicious!â
Bringing people together to celebrate is what we love the most, and nothing gives us more pleasure than helping to create a joyful atmosphere where great food is enjoyed.
A little throwback to A&Râs big day in April at where they chose banqueting style to share their feast with all their loved ones.
Another weekend of meeting wonderful people đ„°
Our 1-2-1 taster sessions are the perfect opportunity to meet face to face, sample your menu and talk all the details of the wedding and how Fig and Smoke will help on the day.
We are really enjoying meeting our 2023 couples, making us super excited for each individual wedding day this summer!
