Wedding Catering in Kent

Wedding catering across Kent, from Sevenoaks to Canterbury: seasonal wedding breakfasts, canapé receptions and evening food at country houses and hotels.

Kent's country houses, hotels and gardens suit a wedding menu built around the seasons. We design every menu from scratch, from the drinks reception to the evening, and cook it fresh on site with chefs trained in some of London's best restaurant kitchens.

Choose a plated wedding breakfast, a fine-dining tasting menu or relaxed sharing tables, followed by evening food that keeps the party going. Staff, crockery, glassware, linen and drinks are all included.

Wedding caterers for Kent's barns, gardens and country houses

Kent weddings often take place in barns, orchards, gardens and country houses well outside the towns, which means longer journeys for suppliers and, often, a kitchen that has to be built on site. We plan travel and setup time into the day, and bring a portable kitchen and everything needed for service where a venue has no kitchen of its own.

We cover the whole county, from Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells to Maidstone and Canterbury. For field and marquee weddings, see our outdoor and barn wedding catering in Kent.

A menu built around the season

Kent's setting suits a menu that follows the time of year: lighter dishes and long sharing tables for summer, richer plated courses for autumn and winter. We design every menu from scratch and refine it with you at a paid tasting, which is deducted from your bill once you book.

If you're weighing up service styles, our guide to buffet, plated, sharing or food stations explains the trade-offs. Our fully staffed multi-station buffet, with chefs serving at each station, is a premium option for relaxed celebrations.

Before you book a Kent venue

Rural venues vary a lot in what they provide. Check whether outside caterers are allowed, what kitchen facilities exist and when suppliers can access the site. Our guide to finding a venue that allows outside caterers lists the questions to ask.
