Planning Thai wedding catering in West Mersea
The nearest station, Wivenhoe, is about 6 miles away, so most guests arrive by car. With most guests driving, it helps to plan parking and leave a clear route for our van to reach the cooking area.
West Mersea has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. Some couples here marry at home in a garden marquee, which gives us room for a full wedding breakfast station and an evening food stall.
Three in four homes in West Mersea (83%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. Plenty of couples here hold the wedding reception in a family garden or paddock with a marquee, and we cook alongside it with our own kit.
Wedding venues around West Mersea
Wedding settings across the City of Colchester include the University of Essex at Wivenhoe Park, Colchester Zoo at Stanway and Mersea Island and its oyster beds, and the venues around West Mersea are mostly Tudor and historic houses, converted barns and coastal and riverside venues.
Many venues in this area have no catering kitchen, which is no problem: we arrive with gas, cooking stations and serving equipment, and leave the space as we found it.
The drive from our kitchen is about 24 miles via the A12 and A120, roughly 50 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Colchester and Colchester Town stations link to London Liverpool Street and the Sunshine Coast line.

How much does Thai wedding catering cost for a wedding in West Mersea?
Wedding mains start from £20 per guest, with starters from £5.99 and canapés from £2 a piece. Travel from our Chelmsford kitchen to West Mersea (24 miles) is included in your quote, and every quote shows the full price per guest.
Can we have a tasting before booking?
Yes, tastings are available for couples. They are paid, and the cost comes off your final invoice when you book. We can also plan the menu with you on a call first.
How many wedding guests can you serve in West Mersea?
We cater weddings from around 30 guests up to 450. For larger numbers we add more cooking stations and staff so the queue keeps moving.
Can you serve an evening food station as well as the wedding breakfast?
Yes. We can do both, or just the evening: a Pad Thai or curry station at 9pm works well once the dancing starts.
Do venues in West Mersea need a kitchen?
No. Around West Mersea the venues include coastal and riverside venues, university and conference spaces and village halls, and many have no catering kitchen. We bring our own cooking equipment and certified gas, or the food van, and only need a reasonably flat spot near your guests.
How far ahead should I book for an event in West Mersea?
Summer Saturdays and December dates in West Mersea book up months ahead, so get in touch as soon as you have a date. For weekday lunches and smaller parties, a couple of weeks is often enough. A 20% deposit secures the date.

What our clients say
Every one of our 66 Google reviews is five stars. A few of them, in our clients' own words:
“They tailored their menu to us completely, adding a curry dish that is meaningful to us, and making sure the starters were vegan so all our guests could enjoy them… Most of our guests commented on how much they loved the food.”
“All of our guests loved the Thai buffet and we had lots of comments on the high quality. Mihai and his team were discreet and cracked on using the facilities the hall had… brilliant with some of the more complex dietary requirements.”
“Mihai and Nok came to our wedding reception and served fully vegan food as we wanted: pad Thai, massaman curry, spring rolls and mango sticky rice. Everyone at the party absolutely loved it!”
