    Incredible

    The Dawdling Duck was an incredible experience for all guests at our wedding in a little church off the beaten track. Alex and Meghan were both super-friendly, had a top-notch set-up, and were praised by all guests. We’re very lucky we chose this company. I can’t recommend these folks highly enough. Thank you very much! James & Annie :)

    Dawdling duck was one of the first things I booked after we found our venue August 2021! Alex is absolutely amazing and over the last year and half has helped me with all my questions and bits we needed for the venue. On the actual weekend he came to set up on the Friday, and I've never seen a bar like it! I'm so so pleased I found you guys, the horsebox trailer worked amazing with the rustic vibe we had gone for. All the guests loved it and commented on how lovely it looked! Thank you so much for then also moving into the barn in the evening! You and the girls went above and beyond for our big day and I can't thank you enough! I also heard you helped light the sparklers for our photos!? So thank you for that to! Highly recommended dawdling duck, you will not be disappointed!!!

    Amazing pop up bar service for our wedding

    Alex and the team provided an incredible service for us from our initial enquiry all the way through to the big day. Alex was easy to communicate with over phone, text and email and always answered our questions as quickly as possible. Booking was straightforward and the price very reasonable. On the day itself the team were fantastic - they assembled the bar in the hall very efficiently and it looked wonderful. They provided a fantastic service to our guests throughout the evening and were very friendly and professional. Cannot fault them at all. Many of our guests have commented on how fantastic the bar was and how good it looked. Thank you so much!

    Amazing bar run by wonderful people!

    We can't thank Alex enough for doing the bar for our wedding, it was just perfect. All of our guests were so complimentary about it. We had a few requests at the start and Alex was so accommodating.

    30th July 2022 Wedding

    We cannot recommend The Dawdling Duck enough!! The horse box looked amazing and fitted in so well with our venue. Alex, Yazzie and Louise were extremely helpful and went above and beyond in every aspect of our day. There were a range of drink choices and there were even cocktail options. All our guests said how great the bar was and we couldn't agree more. Thank you so much!! Natasha and Greg

    Great service and communication!

    Our caterer recommended the Dawdling Duck for our daughter’s wedding at Wadhurst Castle. Alex was fantastic to work with in the months leading up to the big day. We live in the US and even with the time difference, he was very quick to respond to my MANY questions!

    On the wedding day, he and his two assistants were setting up their beautiful bar early in the morning. They were all dressed professionally and very friendly.

    Immediately after the ceremony, the guests were greeted with trays of Prosecco. Alex suggested the perfect package for us. In addition to the bar, they poured wine and provided Prosecco during the wedding breakfast.

    They were very quick to provide drinks at the bar and no one had to wait for their drinks. I would highly recommend the Dawdling Duck!

    Best bar we could ask for

    Alex and his team were absolutely brilliant for our wedding, not just on the day but also on the build-up. We discussed all the details for the day in advance, which made me feel very confident for the day.

    The horsebox is beautiful and matched perfectly our tipi wedding. Service was impeccable and they even agreed to add a custom cocktail (capirinhas) to the menu.

    I couldn't recommend it more!

    Fabulous bar, lovely team and lots of drinks!

    So glad we used the Dawdling Duck team for our wedding. The bar looked amazing, and most importantly kept a wide range of ice cold drinks flowing on a very warm day. Absolutely would recommend- very easy to work with helpful suggestions in the run up (but without any pressure to take up suggestions- just helpful options for us to consider) and then we had nothing to have to think about in the day- just lots of happy guests. Haven't had the photos back yet but the bar also looked beautiful!
