Wedding catering in Essex, London and across England

Thai food across the whole wedding day

You can book us for one part of the day or all of it. A good pattern is canapés during the drinks reception, food stations or sharing platters for the wedding breakfast, and a street food station for evening guests.

• Drinks reception: chicken satay, mini spring rolls, golden fish cakes, gyoza and papaya salad served as canapés, about six to eight per guest.
• Wedding breakfast: two or three mains such as massaman curry, green curry and pad thai with jasmine rice, served from hot food stations, family-style platters or plated to the table.
• Evening food: a street food station cooking pad thai and spring rolls to order, indoors or under our own gazebo outside, a lovely way to feed evening-only guests and the hungry dance floor.
• Dessert: mango sticky rice, which most guests have never tried and almost everyone goes back for.

Food stations, sharing platters or evening street food

Food stations work especially well for a Thai wedding breakfast. Guests come up to hot counters, are served by our team and can go back for more, which keeps the room relaxed and sociable. Sharing platters brought to each table suit long barn tables and a more traditional sit-down feel. A street food wedding with live cooking stations works best for festival-style days, garden weddings and couples who want the food to be part of the entertainment.

You can mix them: canapés handed round, food stations for the main meal and a street food station for the evening. We will suggest what suits your guest numbers, timings and venue layout.

A wedding menu built around the two of you

There is no fixed wedding package you have to squeeze into. We start with what you love to eat, how many guests are coming and how the day runs, and build the menu from there. Couples have asked us to add a curry that meant something to them, to make every starter vegan so the whole room could share them, and to turn the starters into canapés for the cocktail hour. All of that is normal for us.

We are also honest about quantities. You will not be sold food for 150 when 100 are coming, and you will not run out either. Guests get seconds, and anything left at the end can be boxed up for you.

Barn, marquee and tipi weddings with no kitchen

We bring a complete cooking set-up, so we do not need a venue kitchen. That makes us a good fit for marquee and tipi weddings, farm barns, festival-style weddings and garden receptions. Where a venue has a kitchen or a hall servery, we use it and leave it clean.

Before the day we talk to your venue coordinator about access times, where we can park and cook, power and water, and when food needs to be ready. Our gas safety certificate, PAT testing, risk assessments and £5 million public liability insurance are ready for any venue that asks.

Vegan, gluten-free and allergy-friendly wedding food

Thai food is naturally good at this. Rice and rice noodles replace wheat, coconut milk replaces cream, and most dishes can be made with tofu instead of meat without losing anything. We have catered weddings that were fully vegan, weddings with long allergy lists and weddings where Grandma wanted it mild. Every dish is labelled, and guests with allergies can be served first from a separate tray.

What happens on your wedding day

We arrive early, set up quietly and work with your venue team. Food is cooked fresh on site rather than reheated, served hot, and the serving area is cleared and left tidy at the end of service. Mihai is on site to look after timings, so if the speeches overrun we simply hold the food.
