We’re so glad we chose Vegan Junkies to cater our wedding!

We’re so glad we chose Vegan Junkies to cater our wedding! We really wanted delicious vegan food for our big day, and Dave and Sophie went above and beyond. The food was incredible – even our non-vegan guests were raving about it! Everything was full of flavor and beautifully presented. They made the whole process completely stress-free, and their passion and professionalism really showed. Couldn’t have asked for better – thank you both for travelling all the way to Scotland and making our day so special!

10/10 incredible vegan wedding catering!

Sophie and Dave catered our wedding this summer - honestly 10/10 couldn’t recommend them enough. Having a fully vegan menu was super important to us - we’re real foodies - so we wanted to be able to eat everything on the day! From the off they were super flexible with menu - we wanted a tapas style feast - and we loved what we landed on. It was tailored perfectly for us!

We had plenty of allergies to contend with (nuts and gluten) - they didn’t even flinch, making us feel like it was all no trouble at all - and options were outstanding!

Day of, couldn’t have asked for a better team - we had a marquee wedding at home, and they fitting into the day seamlessly. Every member of their team was so friendly and service was brilliant - just lovely to have around!

And our guests - most of whom are not vegan - raved about the food! We had countless messages following the day saying it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding & the standard ‘we literally couldn’t believe it was as all vegan!’

We couldn’t recommend them enough - genuinely lovely people, fab team & honestly Sophie is an incredibly talented chef!

Amazing vegan food & a lovely couple to work with!

Sophie and Dave were amazing at putting together a custom sharing menu for our main wedding meal, inspired by our travels. We then chose from some of their tried and tested favourites for the canapés and evening food, which went down a treat! It was great to have the chance to have a tasting to try all the food in advance, and they really refined the dishes ahead of the big day. We got so many compliments about the food, from veggies, vegans and meat-eaters alike. Sophie and Dave are a lovely couple who clearly take a lot of pride and joy in their cooking and work, it was a pleasure having them around during the wedding. We would 100% recommend Vegan Junkies!

The BEST wedding caterers!

As vegans with a lot of farming family, we knew a vegan wedding might be a tough sell to some of our guests. But from the first call with Dave and Sophie, we knew we'd found the right people! We had around 110 people with an afternoon tea style wedding breakfast and the festival stall with chilli for evening food - a number of people didn't even realise the evening food was vegan! All the food went down so well, and Dave and Sophie were fantastic with guests with dietary requirements, coming to speak to them all personally before each course. They were really part of the day, down to the little touches like setting aside a portion of the evening food for me when I hadn't managed to make it off the dancefloor yet and some of the guests were going back for seconds! The whole vegan junkies team on the day were fantastic, and never stopped smiling.

But beyond the food, what is really amazing about Dave and Sophie is how professional, adaptable, warm and friendly they are. Our wedding could not have been more DIY, down to renovating the barns the wedding and the catering were set up in. I'm sure this was a more challenging catering set up than some of the venues they normally work at, but you'd never have known it. If they were slightly alarmed at arriving to what sill looked like a building site the day before the wedding, they didn't let it show at all. As a slightly stressed bride, groom and family in the last couple of days leading up to it, this was so so appreciated, and your energy was a big part of us all feeling like we could actually pull off the day!

We were so thrilled to be able to give all our guests delicious food that felt authentically us, and can't thank you enough!

Delicious Thai food made by wonderful people

Right from the very start, the Vegan Junkies gave 1000% to ensure that our wedding food was everything we dreamed it to be. From our first emails and video calls, to our food tastings and follow-up conversations leading up to the wedding, communication was easy and enjoyable. Following our first food tasting, we wanted to make a few tweaks, and Sophie and Dave not only invited us for a second food tasting to ensure that we felt happy with the food, but they smashed it out the park; they really listened to our feedback. The food was incredible and we knew it would be on the day. On the wedding, the food was just as delicious, a full Thai feast - a cuisine which is very special to us. We have some difficult eaters in the family who we knew wouldn’t eat the same food we’d chosen for our wedding breakfast, along with some of the most complex allergies I think Sophie and Dave had ever seen, and they honestly went above and beyond to ensure that not only could they eat at our wedding, but that they would have something they could enjoy. Our friend with some of the more complex food allergies even commented on how he’d been able to try foods he had never eaten before, and how incredible that was for him, so thank you Sophie and Dave. People still keep telling us today how delicious they thought the food was! Not only was the food amazing, but Sophie and Dave are so warm and welcoming; they feel like friends and we hope to see them again in the future!

The BEST vegan food we've ever had!

We booked the vegan junkies for our wedding weekend to serve canapes, a Mediterranean sharing feast, buffalo cauliflower wings and chips in the evening, then the following day mexican loaded nachos and rice. From beginning to end the food was PERFECTION, we had so many comments about how people would 'turn vegan' for food like that! We couldn't have asked for anything more. All the staff were so lovely and Sophie and Dave were so accommodating, easy to contact and just all round great people! Couldn't recommend them more highly!

Sensational food and service :)

Vegan Junkies were perfect. We attended a wedding that they had catered previously and been bowled over, so when we got engaged we were determined to have them! From the beginning Sophie and Dave were delightful to work with, really engaged in our vision and offering so many options and ideas. They were professional and easy to contact, but also friendly and the service felt really personal too. Their enthusiasm for their food, but also for our enjoyment of the day, made the whole process lovely and fun. The variety in their menu choices is impressive but we settled on a sharing feast and our guests loved it! The majority were not even vegetarian, and we got some raised eyebrows at the idea of a vegan wedding, but everyone raved about the curries and the salted caramel cheesecake was out of this world.
The food was amazing. The service was professional and personal. The attention to detail was impressive. Every step of the way we had complete confidence in Sophie and Dave. Book them!

Exceptional

Sophie and Dave were absolutely brilliant from the very beginning. We are SO glad we found them for our wedding. The food was incredible, all the guests were raving about it. They were so responsive to our emails, happy to have a call if we ever needed to chat things through and super accommodating to all guest allergies and intolerances. Nothing was ever a problem and we appreciated their approach so much as they always made us feel at ease. On the day everything ran very smoothly and we couldn't have asked for better or nicer people to cater our wedding. We would highly recommend Vegan Junkies!

Not just caterers- so much more!

Thank you so much to everyone at Vegan Junkies for providing the most incredible food, service and support at our wedding. If I could give 10 stars I would!
Dave and Sophie really went the extra mile to make sure we had the best day possible. They’re not just caterers, they are experienced wedding vendors who know what they’re doing! Trust them, follow their guidance and you will have the best day and people will be talking about the food for weeks afterwards. Nothing was too much for them, including feeding 150 people in 30° heat and catering to some very specific dietary requirements. The staff were attentive, making a bee-line for me to make sure I ate the canapés during the drinks reception! From start to finish we were in good hands and delighted that we picked Vegan Junkies. I wish I could eat those sausage rolls again xxx

Amazing food, amazing people - would absolutely recommend!

Sophie and Dave are sunshine personified. Whilst it is about the food, I’m sure every other review will describe how outstanding the food is, I think choosing Sophie and Dave to cater your event means choosing people who listen carefully, make notes, are instinctively helpful and provide thoughtful suggestions. They’ll independently seek out information, connect with other vendors who are at your event and liaise with the venue without intervention.

It may sound obvious but each detail and step they do is considered and lightweight. Our day and the planning of our wedding was only as successful as it was because of these two. They were the glue that kept everything together - they had constant smiles on their faces, genuinely loved interacting with the guests and each moment with them felt more like being with friends.

Choosing the Vegan Junkies to cater not only means having soup related dreams after their tasting menu and having other non-vegans excitedly coming up to you telling you how great the food was, but it means choosing people who care so deeply about the people they work with. We will be forever grateful for their amazing energy, incredible and loving food and the time spent travelling to us in Cornwall.

A special thank you to Terri, Sarah and Karen who joined them in service - they also were so thoughtful, instinctively helpful and generous to our guests. Hugs to you all!!

Excellent caterers

Vegan Junkies recently catered our wedding in the Peak District and they were great! Just over 100 people and we had nothing but compliments from vegans and meat eaters alike. Successfully juggled a whole load of dietary requirements, including coeliac. Portion sizes were spot on. They're a lovely couple and were easy to work with throughout. In the lead up kept us informed if they needed anything and helped us figure out solutions to small dinning related problems. They'd catered our venue before which helped with our day being very DIY and having chosen a venue that might not have been as well stocked as other catering kitchens. We’re considering planning another event just to have an excuse to have their mac & cheese balls and summer rolls again!

Easy deliciousness 😋

Sophie and Dave did a fabulous job catering our wedding. The whole process was easy and the food was delicious. Our guests (even the non vegans) all enjoyed the food, with one even commenting how surprised they were that we had beef burgers come out later on (they were vegan burgers). He said they were the best burgers he'd ever had! Sophie, Dave and their team were all so lovely, friendly, and professional as well. I don't plan on getting married again 😂 but if I did I'd definitely book them again!

Outstanding

If a vegetarian/vegan menu is what you are after for your wedding, look no further! Sophie and Dave provide an impeccable service that consistently goes above-and-beyond. The food was absolutely delicious; communication was brilliant and so efficient; and the service on the day of our wedding was outstanding. Sophie and Dave catered to every dietary requirement and were very attentive to allergies. We feel the catering was fairly priced for the quality of food and service offered. Sophie and Dave allowed us to create a bespoke menu and also to change our minds several times. Being offered a tasting session at their house exemplifies the passion and care Sophie and Dave have. Sophie and Dave are friendly, kind and supportive people and we wholeheartedly recommend Vegan Junkies. (One meat-eating guest asked if they had a restaurant!)

Thank you both so much, your involvement in our wedding day helped to make our visions a reality. L&O

Made our lives easy

We absolutely cannot recommend Dave and Sophie enough. They are so friendly and so relaxed whilst always being professional, responsive, and honestly making everything easy for us. We were tricky customers with very specific/niche requests (certain recipes from Nepal, etc) and Dave and Sophie just took it in their stride and went well above and beyond expected. They were one supplier we never had to worry about as they always had everything in hand and were always one step ahead of us. They really thought everything through, and really put us at ease when they arrived on site too, helping iron out last minute details and adjustments, always with a smile and warmth and relaxed nature even when we ourselves were in a total state of chaos! The food was of course incredibly delicious, everyone commented on how special it was, our only regret is not asking them to do the canapes as well! You will not regret booking vegan junkies- we are recommending them to everyone.

Perfect vegan catering

We had the junkies for our wedding in Sept 2024 (150 people) and couldn't have been more pleased that we went with them. Soph and Dave were brilliant right from the start. They were really flexible and creative at helping us craft a menu that showcased the sort of vegan food we love, but also came in at an affordable budget. Communication was great throughout the process, using email, whatsapp and zoom meetings whenever they were needed them, and Dave and Soph are so relaxed and friendly, it felt more like working on something with a couple of (very capable) friends.

After we’d booked them, we went to visit them in Shropshire for a tasting (a nice part of the country - we made a mini-break of the trip) which was one of the first things that got us really excited about the wedding and allowed us to finalise the menu, and see how amazingly delicious their food is. Some of the things I was unsure would work well vegan (e.g. arancini balls) were actually amazing! Our guests (predominantly non vegans) agreed, and we had lots of people telling us it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. We had a mix of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and asian food, served on large platters on the tables so guests could help themselves to the things they liked best, which worked really well.

Our wedding was in a family garden rather than a venue, and we didn’t hire a wedding planner, so there were lots of logistics we had to consider and manage ourselves, and Dave and Soph were really helpful in helping us think through everything (e.g. crockery and glassware hire, power requirements, layout of the catering gazebo, timings on the day etc). Their advice and experience was invaluable even for things not related to catering - we hired a generator and Dave was able to lend a hand and his knowledge in getting it all set up etc. They came down a couple of days in advance to get everything ready and start preparing food, and again they were so relaxed and helpful, it was great to have them around in those final couple of manic days - it meant that we were confident that, whatever else happened, the food was something we didn’t need to worry about. On the day, we got a bit bit behind schedule with our photos, but Soph and Dave and their team were easily able to adapt, pushing service time back a bit and still get everything served hot and delicious.

In short, the food was the highlight of our wedding, and Soph and Dave were brilliant to work with. Thankyou!
