FAQS

Who are your suppliers?

We only use the finest suppliers to source our ingredients, from Covent Garden greengrocers to independent delis and premium British butchers. When they aren't supplying us they deliver to some of the best restaurants in London, such as the River Cafe. Our ingredients are seasonal, locally sourced and sustainable wherever possible and we never compromise on quality.

Do you organise hire equipment?

Yes! We organise all of the equipment you need for your wedding, from dining tables to martini glasses. We have several suppliers we recommend but you can use who you wish. It’s your job to choose the style and theme and our job to help you bring it to life.

What is your event management service?

We organise the whole event - taking care of everything from the initial planning via the final, important details through to worry-free execution - and are on hand throughout to advise on everything you need. We will act as your planner and organiser, to ensure your special day is how you dreamt it would be. We will set up at the beginning and clean up at the end. We don’t mind if you want to bring your own cake (and eat it!), or wear hats with bells on, you just have to let us know. It’s your event, and our job is to make it a successful and pleasurable one.

Do you offer sharing menus?

Absolutely. Our Meditteranean menus can be served as a sharing feast just as easily as individually plated, and the style of service is set by you! We don't differentiate on price, so you don't have to compromise.

Do you offer tastings?

We feel it is very important that you are able to try the menu you are having beforehand, which is why we offer a private tasting for every booking, that is tailored around you and your day.

Testimonials

Just a message to say thank you so so much for Saturday. You and your team were absolutely incredible - the day was perfect and better than we could have ever imagined. Our friends and family were so impressed - we have had a lot of ‘best wedding we have ever been to’ - and that is totally down to you guys. The food was unreal, the tables were honestly so amazing, I genuinely gasped when I saw them. Please pass on our thanks to the whole team - they were so attentive. Cannot praise them enough. Anyway, we will recommend you to everyone we know.

Carla and Christian, The Amadeus, November 2023

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for yesterday - everything was fantastic, from the food to the running of it all. We are so pleased and couldn’t have wished for a better day. If you ever want us to do a review or reference we will be very happy to sing your praises.

Rose and Jack, Trinity Buoy Wharf, April 2023

We wanted to thank you again for doing such a great job last Saturday and for being so accommodating throughout. The set-up, food and service throughout the evening were outstanding. We received lots of unprompted comments about how beautiful the tables were and how delicious all the food was. Several guests said it was the best food they'd had at a wedding, so please extend our compliments to the chefs! You also personally did a sterling job of making sure it all somehow ran on time and went to plan, despite some unexpected requests (we have both worked in events before, so we know that they come with great pressure and lots of behind-the-scenes work). Please also extend our thanks to the excellent bar and waiting staff we had. They were all so efficient, helpful and friendly with everyone. You were right about there being a lot of food - I hope there wasn't too much waste! All in all, we had such a fun time, and all our guests did too. So a sincere thank you from us for playing a very significant and memorable role in that - not just in serving up excellent food, but in helping to create the relaxed yet lively atmosphere that we had wanted. We'll be sure to recommend you to anyone looking for a caterer.

Rita and Dominic, The Amadeus, November 2023

Highly recommend Tasting Plates! Nobody likes bad wedding food. My husband and I are food lovers so obviously we wanted to serve our wedding guests a great meal. Toby and Joe did not disappoint! They also served as day-of coordination for the reception venue, for which I am hugely grateful - including seamlessly handling a last-minute emergency. Thank you for taking such great care of us, assisting with all the decisions and craziness of wedding planning, and bringing our vision together for a beautiful evening with our friends and family.

Corinne and Chris, The Refettorio Felix, October 2023

Thank you so much. We've had a lovely time and have been thinking about the day constantly. It was perfect! The day after the wedding we had a get-together with friends and the first thing everyone mentioned was how the food was the best they'd had at any wedding! The harissa chicken in particular was sung about. So thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job.
