Exceptional wedding breakfast

We could not rate the food highly enough, it was exceptional. Although we’ve had many really lovely meals at weddings over the years, luckily this really was our favourite!
The staff and service on the wedding day were wonderful too. All the creativity behind the food, the colours, the flavours, the presentation was a delight. Outstanding.

Outstanding

Andy and his team catered our wedding day of 110 and evening of 160 guests. We were absolutely thrilled with the service from the initial discussion and tasting to the big day. Andy completely understood what we wanted and we had so many amazing comments from our guests about the food. I would not hesitate to have Andy and his team cater another event!

Perfection!

Andy was brilliant from start to finish - allowing us to share what we were looking for, but also guiding us along the way to ensure that the end result was amazing.
He kept in touch, made seasonal tweaks and added in extra things to bring it altogether.
Our venue was in the middle of nowhere and with no ovens/fridges etc (never ideal for a caterer) but it didn’t phase Andy and the team. They cracked on and everyone raved about the food. Let’s be honest we’ve all been to a wedding where the food has been ‘meh’ but this 100% was not the case. The food was presented beautifully, tasted amazing (locally sourced ingredients was key) and took everyone’s needs into account. Andy provided both our main wedding food and our evening BBQ.
I cannot thank Andy enough and would highly recommend him for any event.

Wedding of the Century (worth the wait)

Andy and the Full Spoon (https://www.thefullspoon.co.uk/) have been known to us as friends as well as a catering team for multiple years and two previous family members weddings.
Andy is one of the most approachable, polite and knowledgeable men I have ever known.
From the first wedding meeting we discussed cuisines, likes and dislikes, kitchen set up and quickly realised, with a few expert recommendations by Andy, we were all aligned in our vision for the wedding.
Andy was very understanding during the Covid period when we rearranged the wedding 3 times and nothing was too much of an effort. He was available night and day to speak to about any details of the wedding.
From the final menu decisions to the tasting at Codrington Cottage the food was at a level exceeding the high bar we knew Andy sets.
My groomsman stayed at Andy’s’ Airbnb Codrington Cottage (https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/47329962?adults=6&children=0&infants=0&pets=0&check_in=2022-11-13&check_out=2022-11-18&source_impression_id=p3_1668266937_IQUwBzYDSy1bz5yT)
Andy put on a fabulous tasting menu bbq for myself and groomsman nights before the wedding, much laughter was had, Andy’s stories of traveling told, and wine consumed. An added treat which will go down long in my memory and further shows Andy’s high level of service and going above and beyond.
The wedding day itself could not be faulted with plate after plate of incredible food coming out to great reception from the guests. Andy’s chef Anastasia’s eye for detail has to be seen to be believed, and the waiting/ bar staff were smiling and could not be faulted.
Overall the best day of our life, supported by the best catering and food. I can not praise Andy and his team enough and would not hesitate to recommend anyone to get him booked for their event, as after our showing I can imagine he will be fully booked for weddings for the foreseeable future seasons.
Andy and the Full Spoon team Thankyou again from the bottom of our hearts.

Nick and Olivia Willmott.

Brilliant experience start to finish.

We could not have been happier with Andy and all his staff at The Full Spoon. He worked with us to design our perfect menu, guiding us on what would work best for the wedding we wanted. On the day the food was fantastic. Locally sourced, perfectly cooked and the team were so helpful throughout. We had them back on Sunday for a BBQ. More stunning food and very happy, well fed guests who were incredibly complimentary. We were very pleased and grateful that Andy and The Full Spoon were part of our wedding. We’d love to do it all over again!

The most Incredible food from an involved and passionate chef.

We reached out to Andrew very early on in our wedding planning due to covid, and he was more than happy to begin planning and invited us to a tasting at his home despite the long time frame.
We were blown away by his involvement and sincerity when it came to helping us decide what we wanted to eat and his suggestions, passion and knowledge about seasonal availability were second to none.

It goes without saying that our meal was incredible, with many of the guests commenting, multiple times, that it was the best food they’d ever had at a wedding or even at all.
We have to agree, it went down an absolute storm and we wish we could do it all again. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Andrew and his staff a part of our day and would wholly recommend him to anyone considering the full spoon team without an ounce of hesitation.

Incredible food, service with a smile!

We loved the food Andy and his team made. From the start Andy understood exactly what kind of food we wanted and what style. As we wanted a more food festival vibe than a 3 course sit down meal. He even managed to make some Dutch food on request! All our guests were well impressed with the food, even the photographer said it was the best wedding grub she had so far!

Locally Sourced, Creative and Delicious Fare

We could not have asked for a more supportive and professional experience with Andy and his warm and fabulous team.

We felt heard in all our wishes and the team delivered above and beyond what we had hoped for. Nothing was too much trouble. Andy was a calming, charming and relaxed presence from our initial meetings, to a wonderful evening of food tasting at his gorgeous home, to our big day.

The team swept us along and enabled us both to relax and enjoy our guests with not a worry or a second thought that our guests were not being treated to a culinary extravaganza and all their dietary and personal needs being met.

As the bride a member of the team took it on herself to make sure I was ok through out the day and my every need met.

Many of our guests sent charming thank you letters saying what a wonderful day they had had and all mentioned the delicious fare.

We really could not recommend Andy and his team enough.

Delicious food!

From canapes to our sharing style mains it worked wonderfully. The slow cooked lamb was a huge hit and everyone was delighted when Andy came round with seconds! We had a wonderful day and Andy's great food played a big part in that.

Wonderful team and wonderful food

The initial tasting session blew us away - you think about food in the same way that we do and we very much enjoyed your company and meeting the other wedding couples.
Then bearing with us through the tricky COVID years and sticking with us into 2023 - finally making it the wedding we had originally dreamed of having.
So many guests have complimented the delicious food that was served on our wedding day - the tasty canapes through to the sharing platters. And to top it all off, your local knowledge of the venue and suppliers made everything run smoothly on the day.

They arrived and all was well..

The build up to a wedding at home is stressful. There are so many things to do on all fronts and many people to rely on. The Full Spoon caterers are very much worthy of your trust on the big day. They arrived and everything came together. The responsibility of caring for the guests was lifted from my shoulders and everything ran beautifully. Fabulous food was served by friendly and efficient staff. A top up of champagne was never far away when you needed it. Engage them with confidence!

The most wonderful, food brilliantly presented on platters, bowls, dishes - so original! Full of flavour - you would never know that Andy and his team had cooked for 165 of us over 2 days - incredible! We would absolutely recommend him and his lovely hardworking team.

Above and beyond!

Andy and his team were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. He was very flexible and even the day before was happy to help us when a crisis arose with our wine. The food was superb, we had so many compliments including “oh my god, that food was on another level!”

Thanks for helping to make our day so special and memorable
