Wedding Breakfasts

Planning a wedding is a daunting task. There is so much to think about and one of the major aspects of the day is the food.

We at Kings Catering offer a bespoke planning service and we are able to tailor make your wedding to meet with your own personal requirements and personalities.

In our experience there are no set menus and there is no set format.

Each Wedding is different, because no two couples are the same.

We have put together some menu ideas for your perusal. Ideas based on weddings we have done in the past and our experience gained over the last twenty years prove invaluable when helping you plan your big day. We have also tried to keep the whole process simple.

We have priced our menus, knowing a guide price can help you decide what is within your budget. Of course, our menus are not ‘set in stone’ and we can arrange a meeting to discuss options.
