Tipis and marquees in a field are some of the most beautiful wedding settings, and also the ones where a self-contained caterer matters most. There is no venue kitchen, so everything we cook with comes with us.
About this wedding
These photos show the reception at dusk, with festoon lights strung between the tipis and guests eating outside. Thai street food suits this kind of relaxed, festival-style wedding: people eat when they are hungry, the food keeps coming and nobody has to sit through a long formal meal.
What we served
- Canapés during the drinks reception, such as pork gyoza on spoons and crispy bites finished with edible flowers
- chicken satay and hand-rolled vegetable spring rolls handed round on bamboo plates
- Hot street food mains through the evening, such as Sukhumvit Pad Thai and Isaan Thai Green Curry with jasmine rice
- mango sticky rice for anyone with room for dessert
Catering a tipi or marquee wedding
We bring our own cooking equipment and certified gas, and set up a cooking and serving area beside the tipi. Before the day we agree with you or your planner where we can park and cook, how guests will queue, and when food needs to be ready. We check access and the cooking spot with you in advance. Our £5 million public liability insurance, gas safety certificate and risk assessment are ready for any landowner or planner who asks.

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!”
