    Amazing Wedding Catering

    As we had used Purple Chilli for numerous events in the past, when it came to our wedding, Purple Chilli were our first choice as we knew that their food would be exceptional, and we were delighted that they could cater at our venue, Barmbyfield Barns. We were drawn by their ethos of using locally sourced produce, which was a central theme to our wedding.

    We found the booking process very straightforward and had a lovely evening trying out our different menu choices in their stylish tasting room at their York HQ.

    We wanted to wow our guests with our food choices and the team delivered and then some, with great feedback from our guests, on the canapes, wedding breakfast and the evening pies. Everything was beautifully presented and their large serving team made sure everything went seamlessly and the food was cooked to perfection, with special care taken of our guests with dietary needs.

    If you’re looking for wedding or events caterers that produce amazing food and will wow your guests, Purple Chilli are the team to book.

    Shonie & Edward July 2025

    We honestly could not recommend Purple Chilli enough. From the ease of communication to the most amazing meal they produced on the day. Everything was absolutely perfect! Not only did the food taste amazing, it was presented beautifully. Every dish was sensational! Also a big thank you to all staff, every single one of them were so friendly and professional throughout the day.
    With a room full of farmers and us choosing the beef wellington, the expectations were high but every one thoroughly enjoyed all the food. We had multiple guests tell us it was the best wedding food they had ever had and we couldn’t agree more! We honestly cannot thank you all for making our day so amazing!

    Absolutely fantastic food and service

    The most amazing food, and super friendly staff! I cannot believe how many of our guests have complimented the food to us (well, actually I can!) I wish I was getting married again so we could eat the meal all over again!

    Absolutely fantastic!

    Cannot recommend Purple Chilli enough! They stepped in for us on short notice after being let down by another vendor. Absolutely fantastic service from beginning to end! The food was outstanding - we’ve had so many compliments on the food both on the day and afterwards! Nothing was too much to ask and all the staff were progressional, friendly and helpful! Thanks so much - Caitlan and Ben (7th June)

    A wedding meal to remember

    On our wedding weekend, the food and service was fantastic—all our guests were raving about how delicious everything was! All guest dietary needs were accommodated without a flaw as well. We honestly thought our wedding breakfast meal was better than we remembered, which was great. 

    Mark, Sarah & team were easy and great to work with leading up to the wedding as well and accommodated our tasting dates and zoom meetings since we were based overseas in the states.

    Purple Chilli Events Catering's reply:

    Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re delighted everything exceeded your expectations and that your guests enjoyed the meal. It was great working with you both, and we wish you all the best for the future!

    5 star wedding catering

    We had Purple Chilli cater our outdoor wedding in July this year and they were amazing, they went above and beyond to help wherever needed and everyone raved about the food, we couldn’t have been happier they were great from start to finish.

    Purple Chilli Events Catering's reply:

    Thanks so much for the lovely feedback! We're thrilled to hear you and your guests enjoyed everything, and it was an absolute pleasure to be part of your big day. Knowing we could help make it special means a lot.

    The most amazing food ❤️

    As soon as looked at the Purple Chilli menu we knew it was the one for us, but we even more sure after meeting Sarah and chatting about the wedding!

    The range of food is so amazing and after tasting the food at our tasting menu day, we couldn’t believe how amazing it was. The presentation was just so beautiful and unique, we were just totally in love with it.

    Everybody at our wedding said it was the best food they’d ever had at a wedding and would have paid very good money for the food at a restaurant, a few months on it is still a talking point!

    Thank you so much for making the wedding day so special!

    “Best wedding menu ever”

    We had Purple Chilli cater our wedding in August. When we sent the menus out, our guests couldn’t believe they were being served surf and turf. A few said it was the best wedding menu they’d ever seen, and I could tell they were thinking it was too good to be true. Well more surprise to them, it absolutely was not. The food went down an absolute storm and people are still telling me now two month later how amazing it was. Everything was seamless and gorgeous and I’d get married again just to have Purple Chilli cater for me one more time. I didn’t have the easiest set up, with my wedding breakfast taking place up a flight of stairs from the kitchen & there being 94 guests to serve. It went without a hitch and I just couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you to Sarah, Mark and the team.

    Purple Chilli Events Catering's reply:

    Thank you for the fantastic feedback! We’re thrilled that your guests enjoyed the surf and turf menu and that everything went smoothly.
    We’d love to cater for you again if you ever celebrate another special occasion!

    Absolutely Stunning Food!

    Absolutely amazing food and service from all of the team - Sarah really listened to what we wanted and Mark and the team suggested ideas which made the food at our wedding even better. The food was provided for the full weekend - and all of our guests are still talking about it now 2 months down the line.
    We are massive foodies, and Purple Chilli did not disappoint. Thank you to the whole team, you really did give us the best wedding food we could have dreamed of!
