Kick starting the wedding season!

The start of April saw the start of our 2025 wedding season and what better way to begin than with our friends at The Red Barn!

We kickstarted with the wedding of S & C. As well as our catering package these guys also chose to go for Tracy's full hire package and flower package. We love that the Red Barn is a blank canvas and so Tracy was able to go in and work her magic on exactly what S & C were picturing. They were keen to stick to simple greens and whites throughout.

Final touches were a low, simple, round, rustic flower display on sage green cheesecloth runners with tall gold candle holders (the Red Barn has a No Flames policy, so flameless LED candles). Tracy's real Royal Mail post box, repainted in white with gold detail, and a large gold frame for the table plan. Drapes with fairy lights finished the room off.

Although a little windy, the weather was lovely and sunny for the big day. For their reception drinks guests were offered bottled lager and Prosecco with a little twist - C had spent lots of time making his own sloe gin, which was added to the Prosecco. And enjoy it they did!

Canapés were Yorkshire puddings with pulled beef in gravy topped with a dollop of horseradish, honey mustard sausages, tempura prawns with sweet chilli dip and tomato, basil and onion crostinis. Mains were our classic chicken in a creamy white wine sauce with sage and onion mash and petit pois à la Française, with mushroom risotto for the veggies. For dessert, a gorgeous lemon cheesecake for everyone.

Evening food was hog roast rolls in takeaway boxes - a nice simple way of people grabbing and carrying on with their evening. A large cheese wheel cake, crackers and chutneys, and the wedding cake were also put out at this time. The party carried on through to midnight. Wishing S & C all the love and happiness for their new life as Mr and Mrs. Soph x
