Weddings are one of the most important days in a couples' life. Getting the catering element of a wedding perfect takes a lot of time, planning and meticulous execution. When the wedding day arrives for couples who have engaged Food Comes First, they will have had many months, if not more than a year, of conversations with us. There will have been menu discussions (tastes, style, allergies etc), visits to the venue, food tastings and logistics arrangements. Food Comes First's goal is to seamlessly integrate into your wedding to serve delicious food without any surprises.
> A new Wedding Brochure will be downloadable soon. If you would like a copy of the previous version of the Wedding Brochure, please get in touch and we will email one to you.
We like to have an initial chat by phone before we arrange a meeting. It’s important for us to get an understanding of your style, taste and ethos. Every wedding is different; we help you choose the menu and style of service which best suits you.
We often offer tastings for events. These are either in our home or yours. This is also a good opportunity to chat informally and to discuss menus and service and all other details of your event to ensure the smooth running of the day
We like to meet you at your wedding venue; this can be closer to the date of the wedding or whenever suits you.
At this stage we can have a look at the facilities, finalise options and tie up any last minute changes.
We work with a number of venues and are the preferred wedding caterer for several. Please ask if you need
assistance finding your perfect place.
