Planning a party, we’re here to help

You won’t find any packages or set menus on our website as we believe each event we do is personal and therefore requires an individual menu.   When you first make contact with us, we ask lots of questions which will help us create a menu with you in mind. We give advice on service, suggested timings and the format. 

From an afternoon tea party served in your garden, private dining in your home to finger buffets and bbq’s to cocktails and canapés we do it all.

Christenings

Christenings and naming ceremonies are such special family occasions, a proud day for parents and god-parents. From afternoon teas to a buffet-style lunch or garden BBQ, we work with you to create a celebration that you, your friends and family will all remember.

Birthdays

As one of Oxford’s leading event caterers, we collaborate with a handful of exclusive suppliers that work alongside us to bring your event to life. A well celebrated birthday will never be forgotten. We strive to get your guests reminiscing about your party year after year. Whether you want an extravagant bash or something more low-key, contact us so we can get some ideas flowing.

Anniversaries

Whether it is a corporate anniversary or a milestone wedding anniversary, our team can help you plan a celebration to commemorate your special day. From a BBQ to bowl food, afternoon tea, private dinner or sumptuous lunch, our team will be on hand to coordinate every element for you. cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.

Wakes & Memorials

When it comes to saying farewell to someone you love and cherish so dearly, we know how difficult it is. We make the process easy and straightforward so you don’t have to worry about a thing. We add elements of food that we know they loved; from a favourite cake, they used to love to serving a drink that perhaps they were well known for, it is all about the little touches. From a small gathering to a large memorial, we will work with you to take away every ounce of worry of having to think about catering and organising a wake or memorial. From a finger buffet to canapes, fork buffet or afternoon tea, we will create a gracious farewell.

what our clients say

You and your team helped make Ruth’s farewell a wonderful and memorable occasion.  As you will have gathered, she was a much-loved mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great grandmother, aunt, great aunt and friend to many of different ages and backgrounds.  Food was important to her as an expression of her love for others and she was never happier than when feeding people with her beautifully prepared meals, so we knew that it was important to have good food at her wake.  The bowls of hot savoury and (cold) dessert helpings were absolutely delicious and everyone appreciated them.  The staff were attentive, efficient and friendly and all went so well, a fitting party after the excellent service.

Laing Family, St. Andrews Church, December 2019

You are the first person I am contacting to say ‘thank you’.  And rightly so!  You did a tremendous job yesterday, you really did.  Your staff were also a great credit to you.  I have now seen many pictures of the delicious food you provided, and I must congratulate you particularly on the presentation: it was stunning.  I know that you do events/afternoon teas a lot, and probably become immune to them, but you really do need to feel very proud of yourself and the team on this occasion.  Please pass on my sincere thanks to everyone.

Sally Dexter, Daughter of Sir Colin Dexter, The Oxford Town Hall, 2018

I just wanted to drop you an email but there is a card and gift on its way to you to say a million thank yous for putting on the most special evening ever. I couldn’t have asked for better food, better service or a better time – the last of my guests has just left and every single one had something to say about how spectacularly it was run. 

You have been nothing short of a blessing to my 21st birthday, and made it more incredible than I could have ever imagined! Absolutely everything was perfect, and I’m sure my family will settle all the debts with your accounts in the next day or so, but please do let me know where I can drop off a proper token of thanks just from me later this week!

I really could not have begin to have done it with you, and am so unbelievably lucky to have had you bring all the magic to it!

 All the best and endless thank yous

Noorie, Freuds, Oxford, January 2020
