Exceptional food. Stunning presentation. Every price published.

At Just About Weddings Food & Drink, we do far more than put food on a plate and pour drinks into a glass. We create a complete food and drink experience: beautifully presented, professionally delivered and designed to bring a genuine sense of theatre to your wedding, UK-wide and at the very best value for money pricing!

From elegant wedding breakfasts and spectacular sharing dishes to cocktails, premium glassware and a beautifully run bar, every detail matters. Our food arrives on carefully chosen plates, dishes, boards and serving pieces—not whatever basic equipment happens to arrive from a hire company. Wherever possible, we incorporate striking presentation touches, including dramatic dry-ice smoke effects at the table, and scented smoke bubbles on cocktails, as a standard part of our service and within our published pricing.

And yes—our prices really are published on our website. All of them. No mysterious “packages from” figures, no refusing to discuss costs until after an enquiry and no prices invented according to the venue or perceived budget. You can see exactly what we charge before you even contact us - and we offer undoubtedly the very best in value for money!

Why Choose Us?

🍽️ Food and Drink with Theatre
Wedding catering should feel like part of the occasion—not something silently dumped onto a table by somebody who would rather be somewhere else. We carefully plan how food and drinks are presented, carried, served and revealed, creating moments that look fantastic, excite your guests and add energy to the room.

Presentation Comes as Standard
Different plates, boards, dishes and serving pieces allow every course to have its own identity. Where appropriate, we also use dry ice to create dramatic smoke effects across the tables. These are not expensive extras added later—they are part of how we naturally deliver our service.

🤍 Immaculately Presented Staff
Our team are not a collection of scruffy, disinterested agency workers assembled at the last minute. They are personable, enthusiastic and professionally uniformed, with our waiting team wearing crisp white gloves. They understand that the way they carry themselves is every bit as important as the food they serve.

🍴 Beautiful Details Everywhere
We refuse to undermine beautiful food with cheap, plain hired cutlery and uninspiring glassware. Our cutlery is modern, substantial and elegant, while our glassware is typically chosen for its premium styling and distinctive ridged design. The result is a table that feels considered, coordinated and genuinely special.

💷 Every Price Published Online
We believe couples deserve to know what things cost before beginning a conversation. That is why our food and drink pricing is published clearly on our website—something virtually unheard of in wedding catering. There are no hidden travel fees, no deliberately vague quotations and no need to surrender your contact details just to discover whether we are remotely within budget.

🥂 A Complete Food and Drink Service
We can provide your catering, bar, chefs, waiting staff, bartenders, crockery, cutlery, glassware and service equipment, as well as food and drink for welcome evenings, rehearsal meals, next-day brunches, barbecues, pool parties and multi-day celebrations.

Premium service should mean exceptional food, beautiful presentation, outstanding staff and meticulous attention to detail. It should not mean inflated prices, hidden extras or a bland service delivered without imagination.

At Just About Weddings Food & Drink, the experience is every bit as important as the menu—and the price is visible before the conversation even begins.

Great Team

Nick & Alex were the best team, when we first talked it was obvious Nick would be able to cope with our energy. We busy jobs and although we are competent in project management roles, we really wanted a planner that would really take the stress out of the whole process ~ JAW smashed the brief!!!

We had a WhatsApp group for all communications and they always responded quickly (even if we said it could wait) and were always ready and willing to help us out.

They helped us round up all of the vendors we needed, it was never a pressure or hard sell to pick a JAW partner, we had visions for certain aspects and Nick & Alex found exactly what we needed. They gently nudged us when we needed to make decisions and guided us in the entire timeline and process.

On the wedding day, they were just great, always smiling, they got stuck in with making sure the details were just right, helping the venue out with final touches, doing a walk through with the groom party to check it was all just so. Nick even made sure my Dad who is a wheelchair user had a cup of coffee whilst he waited for everybody to arrive and assemble. We felt completely at ease and they totally made us feel calm and confident that everything was in hand - we had lots of down time together and ran on time the entire day!!

Beforehand, we said 'just put a glass of champagne in our hands and tell us where we need to be' ... they did exactly that! there was food and drink in front of us at all times and every single wish on our list was ticked off.

Nick was our MC and he kept the vibe lively, he matched our guests energy at all times, not an easy task - there were lots of them and we all had energy :-D He also said grace (just the way Nan would want) for us before we ate which was a lovely touching moment and bought lots of tears from my family.

There is nobody else we would have wanted to be our planners, they made every single second a pleasure and the whole experience was enjoyable. We truly had the most perfect day. These two have a special place in our hearts and we can not recommend them highly enough.

The best coordinator ever

I could not have had a better coordinator than Ali. She was fun, checked in on us both in the morning, she was organised, she looked after my elderly relations, mucked in, moved up timings to respond to the day (checking with us first, of course), and people assumed she was a friend too. I cannot rate her highly enough - everyone needs Ali as their coordinator! Also, my now husband was really unconvinced that a coordinator was needed and after the day was over he said she was the best hire we had made!

Lovely Oxford wedding

Working with the Just About Weddings team was the best decision we made for our wedding. From the start, they were incredibly responsive and guided us through countless logistical details that never would have crossed our minds. Their creative insight and practical suggestions brought our celebration at the Cherwell Boathouse together beautifully. On the day itself, their seamless coordination handled every moving part so we could relax, be present, and genuinely enjoy every moment. We can’t recommend them highly enough.

The perfect team for your wedding

We’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Nick and Alex from Just About Weddings on several destination weddings in Italy, and we can highly recommend them.

As suppliers, we see first-hand everything that happens behind the scenes, and Nick and Alex are always incredibly organised, attentive and professional. Communication is excellent, every detail is carefully managed, and most importantly, you can see how much they genuinely care about their couples.

They create a relaxed and positive atmosphere while making sure everything runs smoothly, allowing the couple to simply enjoy their wedding day.

They’re also genuinely lovely people to work with. We’ve loved collaborating with them in Italy and would happily recommend Just About Weddings to any couple planning their wedding!

A review from venue

I have had the pleasure to work with nick and Alex for a wedding my property in tuscsny. Throughout the process I can confirm he handled all the communication between us and the couple getting married professionally. He was more than available to the extend he flew over to tuscsny more than once to confirm all went according to plan. During the course of discussion , after agreement , during wedding nick behaved as this was his own wedding. He had a the interest of the couple above. And dealing with many wedding planner this is the first time I wrote a review because I just had to appreciate the hard work when I see one.

5 stars!!!

Nick and Alex were the wedding planners for my sisters wedding in Ios, Greece. They were absolutely phenomenal from start to finish and I could not recommend them more. They made my sisters and brother in laws dream wedding a reality and it was incredible! Multiple people made comments over the week of how attentive and helpful they were with absolutely anything that we could need! I will definitely be using these guys for my future wedding!

Great Service, Perfect For Our Needs

From the get go Just About Weddings were in regular and easy communication with us. They asked us what sort of help we wanted from wedding planners, and then tailored their service to provide exactly that. For us this was breaking the planning down into discrete manageable tasks, providing advice to narrow down the field for each service we needed provided given our budget, then giving us reminders when things were due. They proceeded to do exactly this! What's more, they then provided wonderful on the day MC services ensuring everything actually went smoothly on our wedding day. We couldn't be happier.

The Dream Team Who Made It All Happen

From the moment we first met Nick and Alex, we knew they would be fantastic partners in planning our wedding, and they exceeded every expectation.

From the outset, they were patient, thoughtful and incredibly generous with their time. They presented us with a range of options to help bring our ideas to life and were always available to answer questions or jump on a call, no matter how busy wedding season became. As Just About Weddings offers everything from catering and floristry to beauty and entertainment, they could easily introduce us to their brilliant wider team, while never placing any pressure on us to use them, or particular suppliers. Whatever your vision or budget, they will work tirelessly to find the right solution for you.

We also hired Nick and Alex as our on-the-day coordinators, which was absolutely invaluable. They ensured everything ran smoothly, handled every last-minute hiccup with complete calm and professionalism, and allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment. So many of our guests commented on how kind, gracious and capable they were.

Nick and Alex played an enormous part in giving us the wedding of our dreams. We could not recommend them more highly, they truly can make even your wildest wedding ideas a reality.

Incredible planners

From the moment we met Nick and Alex, we knew they would be great to work with. From the very beginning, their knowledge and professionalism was evident and it helped us so much. Planning a wedding is a huge job and these guys made it so simple for us. They guided us along every step, offered honest advice (without trying to get more money off us!) and were so responsive. They helped us coordinate everything and their entire team were excellent. They are also great value for money and excellent at keeping you within your budget. Honestly, the day wouldn’t have been the same without everything they did for us. Would massively recommend!

An absolute joy to work with!

I was the celebrant for a recent wedding planned and coordinated by Just about Weddings and they were a dream to work with from start to finish.

They set up a call with me and the couple and then supported with any questions from there on in. On the day, Ali was super helpful, diligent and friendly.

Can’t wait to work with them again.

Mixed Experience

Overall, we had a mixed experience working with JAW. There were definitely positives throughout the planning process. Alex was always attentive, professional and a pleasure to deal with, and many of our guests commented on how good he was during the wedding weekend. Nick was helpful with contractual negotiations, especially when the venue challenged our ability to import certain items, as he was quick to remind them of their contractual obligations.

JAW also introduced us to some good suppliers, including the catering, DJ and saxophonist. We also appreciated the flexibility they offered with payments, allowing us to secure suppliers early and pay JAW back over time, which really helped us manage our budget.

Unfortunately, there were several areas where we felt the planning process fell short. At times, it felt as though they were managing too many clients, as we often had to follow up on outstanding actions ourselves and resend information that had already been shared. This left us feeling like we were managing parts of the process rather than being guided through it. There were also a number of attention-to-detail issues, including repeatedly forgetting our wedding date, forgetting that JAW themselves were officiating the ceremony, missing napkins, seating us facing away from our guests during dinner, and not playing the reception playlist we had provided.

We also found that the planning timeline wasn't as proactive as we had expected. We repeatedly asked to begin organising certain aspects around nine months before the wedding but were told that it was too early according to their process. As a result, many key decisions, supplier negotiations and budget discussions were left until much later than we were comfortable with. This ultimately led to several unexpected costs close to the wedding and a substantial payment to the venue just a week beforehand. We had always anticipated spending that amount if necessary, but having clear visibility much earlier would have made the experience far less stressful.

During the final two weeks before the wedding, when we felt we needed the most support, there were periods where we were left to resolve important issues with the venue ourselves, particularly around alcohol arrangements. This also contributed to confusion around invoicing because JAW weren't involved in those conversations. In hindsight, we also felt that not fully following the venue's planning process led to unnecessary last-minute negotiations and tension with the venue team that could likely have been avoided.

Overall, JAW helped us create a wonderful wedding day with some great suppliers. However, the planning journey was significantly more stressful than we expected due to communication, organisation and planning issues. For couples who are looking for a planner to take work off their shoulders and proactively manage every detail, it's worth discussing expectations around timelines, communication and budget management from the outset.

Absolute lifesavers – our wedding wouldn’t have been the same without them!

We truly cannot thank our wedding coordination team enough for making our special day absolutely perfect. From our very first conversation to the final moments of the wedding, their professionalism, organization, and calm energy kept us completely at ease.
They took all the stress off our shoulders, seamlessly managing the timeline and coordinating with all of our other suppliers behind the scenes. Because of their incredible hard work, we were able to completely relax and just enjoy every single moment of our day with our guests, knowing we were in the safest possible hands.

Made wedding planning stress free!

Everyone says that wedding planning is supposed to be one of the most stressful experiences of your life. We are a pretty highly strung couple and so fully expected to be very stressed by the process. Nick, Alex and the Just About Weddings team took all that stress away and made it an enjoyable, smooth and most importantly exciting process!

It was incredible value for money, and of all the different costs associated with getting married, Just About Weddings was by far the best money we spent!

We got married in Italy (we're based in the UK) and having them coordinate vendors, the day itself, and just be a sounding board and advisors for our thoughts and ideas was invaluable. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Thanks guys!
