KATHERINE & IAN'S London Wedding
We were delighted when the happy couple, Katherine and Ian, approached us through renowned wedding planner Rebecca Brennan-Brown to cater their wedding in early November 2023.
Having chosen the beautiful Two Temple Place as the setting for their nuptials, we were overjoyed to create a menu that incorporated classic elegance, seasonal produce and elements from the couple’s history, to celebrate their special day.
With 100 guests invited to celebrate, the panelled walls of Two Temple Place were bedecked with florals by Pesh Flowers and elegant candle displays to set the romantic and refined tone for the evening. Photographs were captured by Lewis Membery.
The Menu
Upon saying ‘I do’, the guests enjoyed a champagne reception alongside an array of canapés, from Hot Smoked Trout, Crispy New Potato, Hollandaise and Chive, to Tuna Tartare, Sesame Cracker, Lime Pea Purée, Chilli; delicious bites of Butternut Squash Arancini, Pumpkin Seed Pesto, Parmigiano Reggiano and morsels of Baked Goats Cheesecake, Caramelised Leek, Coriander Seed. Social Pantry made the most of the delicious and seasonal produce such as Spiced Lamb; Roasted Celeriac, Garlic Butterbean Hummus, Pickled Salsify, as well as indulging in some decadent Buttermilk Fried Chicken, Smoked Sweetcorn Purée and Pickled Cucumber to start the evening’s celebrations off with a bang.
A three course menu was curated for the wedding breakfast, a refreshing starter of Courgette Carpaccio, Fennel, Kohlrabi, Wild Rocket, Toasted Pine Nut. Followed by Roasted Rib Eye of Beef, Miso Butter Roasted Shallots and Fennel; Preserved Lemon Salmon, Butternut Squash Puree, Crispy Cavolo Nero; and for the plant-based guests, an umami-filled plate of Pot Roast Kohlrabi, Caramelised Aubergine Puree, Radish, Kale.
Desserts were a showstopper; Rhubarb and Hibiscus Custard Tart, Ginger Ice Cream; or Dark Chocolate Brownie Bar, Chocolate Soil, Black Cherry Sorbet for those that prefer something more indulgent…
The happy couple and their guests danced the night away, with cocktails to fuel their dancing feet and freshly cooked chips in homage to the Groom’s family business to take them late into the night. What a wedding!
